Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus

Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus

The Strokes

“Brooklyn Bridge to Chorus” is the third single from The Strokes' sixth studio album The New Abnormal.

The track follows Julian in a very reminiscing tone, reflecting on people and memories like the “eighties bands” from his past (chord structure for the verses are very similair to Cutting Crew’s “(I Just) Died in Your Arms”). He comes to terms with the fact that these are indeed from the past, however, and puts them behind him, looking for new people to surround himself with and move on in life.

The song features more traditional Strokes instrumentation than the record’s two previous singles, with a heavy, guitar-driven chorus while also incorporating synthesizers over the rest of the track.
