People have for so long tried to prove that God do exist with mundane shit like religious texts when they could've simply played this or any Metric song and put that to rest already. :D
heard this song a million times, but just realized "the dirty sugar factory on the water, should smell sweet" is probably referencing the Redpath Sugar Refinery on Toronto's lakefront ....
A lot of the stuff from Grow up and Blow Away reminds me of early Cardigans stuff - like from Emmerdale. Emily and Nina have similar voices, though this early Metric stuff is more "mature" as compared to early Cardigans. I really like the evolution of Metric's music, though this is excellent as well. I wish I could say the same for the Cardigans :(
Nah that's just where they came up with the name Metric for the first time and found the last two members...Emily and Jimmy met in Toronto and started collaborating then...hence, Metric = born in toronto.
@TabbyAngel2 Half canadian...half texan. I saw a video where she said that her and the guitar player were from canada, while the other two are from Texas. It was their performance on david letterman I believe.
On December 24, 2006 at 8 o'clock in the morning, a young 14 year old boy by the name of Scott Jackson was found dead. Doctors couldn't come up with the cause of his death. His mother checked his emails to see if she could figure out what happened. Turns out he was still signed into myspace. She found he had gone to sleep after he read and didnt repost a chain letter. if you dont repost this to 6 videos a girl with no face will kill you tonight.
i mean, sometimes guys hit on you because they don't have any drugs handy.

The concept of this song (that is if I am getting it right), has a blues/jazz standard kind of feel to it. It's fantastic.
