  • this is a god awful cover.... i can't believe bowie likes this band

  • @rmjs66 no offense but i don't remember you having a nursing degree in FEELINGS

  • its funny how musical tastes change. i was at the beachland a couple weeks before this seeing a band i no longer listen to. at that time i knew nothing of arcade fire. now i love them. i now kick myself for not seeing them then.

  • Not a bad rendition of this song but obviously you cannot beat the original by Bowie-to anyone interested check ou the version by Icehouse they do it well.

  • i love arcade fire and bowie even more, but this cover is pretty rotten. the background synth thing is like someone has a car alarm goin off. and it does suck they got into politics. your cool but don't preach to me.

  • you know what? bands don't owe it to you to not get into politics. they are their own people with their own opinions and own decisions.

    your consuming THEIR content, if you dont like their music, their ethics or their politicing, find another band. its as simple as that.

  • i thankfully consume their content, i just wish i could enjoy it without having to dodge recycled political rhetoric. of course they have the right, but i don't have to like it. ron paul '12

  • Aww, why can't bands just worry about music. I liked these guys before they got into politics

  • Amazing performance, not quite as good as the original, but almost!

    Can't wait for their new album! ;)

  • i will tell my grandchildren about this show

  • I envy you.

  • Awesome - Beachland is such a great place to see a show.

  • i love arcade fire, david bowie and barack obama!

  • especially david bowie ;]

  • Me too!!!!!

  • just heard arcade fire in carborro, nc today at another obama rally. they played this live and it brought tears to my eyes. absolutely amazing.

  • Very nice!!

  • nothing can replace the interstellar space train Eno provided in the original...but this is cool.

  • good cover, i like the hurdy gurdy, it adds something different

  • great cover, but nothing beats the original ;)

  • The hurdy gurdy works perfectly in this song!

    SO FUCKING AMAZING!!!

  • Come back to Texas!!!

  • Well being a BOWIE follower for, well since the Ziggy days, this is a good cover. But, no one puts the intensity that BOWIE puts into this song, still a good job. enjoy..

  • Brilliant version better than by anyone else I've heard cover it. Better dare I say than some of Bowies efforts in the past.
