broken social scene: almost crimes

[howdoyouspellmilk123]

feist kicks SOOO much ass

[webster670]

Thanks SO much for posting this! God, what I wouldn't give to have this whole show on DVD.

[arcadefire4life]

(I know now before I even post this, this will get a lot of negative feedback)

But when it comes to overrated canadian music, Wolf Parade does take the cake... But that's me. /:

[arcadefire4life]

How does Feist do that with her voice?? AMAZING!

[mark1138]

haha I love the hockey night in Canada theme song riff

[TZguy]

whoa!! that looks sooooo intense :O too bad i just found out about this band just a couple of days ago, if I knew them when this happened I definitely would've been there :D

[chard111]

and omfg lisa lobsinger was there too. LUCKY LUCK FUCKS IN NEW Z.

[sorim69]

whoever went to this concert is the luckiest person on earth...i get shivers watching this video

[Debunka]

I still get goosebumps when I see this and remember singing my heart out along with a couple thousand other people

[alexwr2007]

The best concert I've ever been to is the one and only time Broken Social Scene came to New Zealand.

Dear god, as good as their studio music is, live they're orgasmic.

[nzMnC]

Damn, as overcrowded as it was, that was a great show. I was sore after rocking out for over two hours. Wish they'd come back to NZ soon and bring Feist :D

[alexwr2007]

That would be amazing. Hope it's in the next couple years.

Ah, hell. You know I'd travel back here.

[nerdythursday]

Amazing!

[sunbeam11]

Amazing that anyone takes Arcade Dire seriously when there is clearly only one decent Canadian band.

[skippyrandom]

arcade fire isn't bad at all, they just need to start changing their sound more.

[Arcas16]

I like the idea that some one is recognizing BSS over AF but "only one decent Canadian band"? BSS alone consists of a bunch of great bands. Canada has so much to offer.

And I don't dislike Arcade Fire, I just think BSS deserves more credit.

[sunbeam11]

BSS I think are far more creative than AF. The latter are just better at stroking the pseudier critics' beards. I'm afraid that here in the UK these are the only 2 canadian bands we know of!

[sayspain]

@Arcas16 Any other interesting canadian bands to keep track of from spain?

[zippledddddddddddddd]

objection i feel the Arcade fire are good too,so well done canada for producing two great bands, how cheesy but true

[Debunka]

I was at that show. It's Feist and Amy Millan. Metric was in New York opening for the Rolling Stones that weekend.

[lui505]

take that white american trash!!!!!!!

[Hamilkkar]

the first girl is feist the second is amy milan from the band: Stars

[charlieonehorse]

are you serious? they are both in it you numbnuts watch at 57 seconds

[nerdythursday]

You're a nunbnut for saying that.

[pigeonkill]

jesus, it's still being debated? the pony tailed girl is feist, just watch the bsc on conan video if you still have any doubts - it features both emily and leslie, it's pretty hard to mistake one for another (ha!). i don't think emily haines is in this (almost crimes live) video) at all.

[shortofdaybreak7]

coolest song ever.

[SGK531]

It's Leslie Feist, I promise. In january of 2006 Emily was doing her solo tour. And the singer looks like Feist, sounds like Feist, and Feist is the one who sings the recorded version.

[easylove87]

wrong.

emily did her solo tour in october 2006 and january/february of 2007. she was on tour with metric. they played toronto like a month before this one. same venue.

i don't know which show this vid is from, because there was two. i went to the saturday show. it was three hours long, and fucking amazing. beautiful, beautiful live show. so amazing.

[jacket23]

it's definitely feist. no doubt about it at all. i would bet my life on it. plus someone said they were there and it was her

[cheesepowah]

I want to say the first singer is feist but after looking at pictures of her and haines, I have to say it's emily

[cheesepowah]

or maybe im wrong, if pearliohead is telling the truth. But to me it looks like Emily Haines.

[sayazfar]

they look so fun to watch live...

[Rahaha24]

amazing band

[thesunneversets]

That's the hockey night in Canada theme in the solo!

[athenak]

Awesome...brings back good memories!

[pearliohead]

I was at this concert and it was feist, Metric was opening up for the rolling stones in New York City. They announced it during the show i'm pretty sure

[thetofus]

it is definitely feist..i was convinced after watching this video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v­=CKWWLNaIwGg&search=amy%20mill­an

as you can see, emily heines has lighter hair and looks way different

[qwikshot]

who didnt have a crush on her?

[pigeonkill]

i'm sure it's feist. the way she moves, sings, pony tail... actually i had a huge crush on her after watching this video.

[lennuyeur]

i'd be willing to wager a very large sum of money that the first female vocalist is leslie feist - the schnoz, the pony-tail and bangs, and she is the vocalist on the recorded version of this tune. were you there, TheV ??

[thetofus]

THANK YOU! thats what i thought! it's those bangs and the jaw line..i SWEAR

..wel actually i dont cuz i wasnt there

also, it sounded like feist

[hellocornelius]

incredible. saw them in lawrence... and... um... shit.

[TheVariable]

The girl that sings first is Emily Haines of Metric, the one that comes in second is Amy Milan of Stars

[thetofus]

aw man, i knew the 2nd was amy millan, but i seriously thot the 1st was feist...in a way, they kinda look alike! it's the hair and the jaw

[dwoolgar]

Actually it is Fiest singing first joined by Amy Milan. Fiest is pretty distinct with her looks and sexy body movement. They have way too many sexpots singing for them. I think they should share.

[Ivybird]

The reason that BSS is great is because there are 12 gifted musicians in a group. This is important because its obvious that they are not making much money since it gets divided. therefore, they are in it for the music... and to promote there sub-bands that come out of BSS. Overall they are repping Canada nicely.

[iggy2012]

Why is this group so good?!!!!???! How come no other groups sound this good?

[thegoodshipadam]

If a kid with a name like "ABoyBrushedRed" (which, to my understanding is an UNDEROATH song) comments negatively on a BSS song, I just kind of let it go...seeing as he/she has no apparent taste in any good music.

[thetofus]

i have trouble figuring out who's who...the girl that sung more and came in first...is that feist?

[bobcooksey]

This is the best band of the past ten years.

[popnotmyface]

hey Mr. No-Taste-In-Good-Music, you suck.

awesome song/video x

[ABoyBrushedRed]

TYHIS SONG SUCKS

[sridyard]

oh shit. i totally crememed my pants.
