Brooklyn Bridge To Chorus

Here, Strokes lead vocalist Julian Casablancas reminisces on memories of his past; he calls out the '80s bands of his youth and remembers someone who wrongly thought he was his friend. Now he yearns for new relationships, which as a fortysomething father of two he finds difficult. I want new friends, but they don't want me They're making plans while I watch TV On the bridge, Casablancas references his ex-wife, former Strokes assistant manager Juliet Joslin, whom he divorced in 2019 after 14 years of marriage. The less that I know, the deeper I go Juliet, I adore The deeper I get, the less that I know Diminishing returns, oh The older he gets, the less Casablancas understands the younger generation.

The song title does not appear in the lyrics. However, Brooklyn Bridge is located in New York, where Casablancas grew up.

The Strokes recorded "Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus" at Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, California with producer Rick Rubin.
