Instead of ragging on people with "My Band's Better Than Your Band" or "My Band Can Beet Up Your Band" nonsense, how about just saying "hey, you might want to listen something I like...maybe you'll like it too. Educate, Don't Hate! or STFU! :)
You kiddies have no clue at all do you? Been done far better and much earlier but you wouldn't know because of those bands being continental mainly. But for starters: Henry Cow, Slapp Happy, Art Bears, all UK and Art Zoyd, Univers Zero, Hector Zazou, Debile Menthol to name but a few from Europe, oh you sad fucks.
:D You really think those bands would appeal to the majority of Arcade Fire's audience?
Arcade Fire is a simple pop band compared to some of the acts you've listed.
However, compared to most of the contemporary stuff, I think that Arcade Fire are a quite a good bunch of musicians. But, you are correct: anyone thinking Arcade Fire are progressive and original is simply deluded.
And yes, there is much better music out there.
But people can still enjoy this too, don't you agree?
Being in a band like this would be awesome because there are so many people with you, it wouldn't even matter if you messed up. Nobody would notice and you could keep playing without being embarressed.
@magiaclshizzz what the fuck? did you except him to take you?? also, why the fuck would you just randomly give away arcade fire tix? who the fuck do you think you are.
amo esta canción, me sirvió mucho para inspirarme en un monólogo que me salio ahora, describe totalmente mi estado de ánimo ahora.. wake up - arcade fire se merece un monumento! :D
Best band ever I always listen to wake up and power out on my ipod right before bed time. With my lightning bolts a glowing I can see where I am going so you better look out below. I guess we'll just have to adjust aaaaaaaah.
I don't wanna wake up real life is too scary its just like all the bad dreams I have so there for I have absloutly nothing and that is why I listen to a song this song the music that fills my head and reminds me that my heart was once warm and all was peace in my MAD little head I may be 13 of age but who am I to question the scientific laws of physics and such in my head
@0Winkleson0 Oh ok, I see. Thanks for explaining that! :) Science is obviously not my strongest subject. However, I don't really think that Littlemonster doesn't really know what he's talking about. I was just like that when I was 13. I thought I was totally crazy, and that made me feel special for some strange reason. ;)
@Lamnern I didn't even see his post :P I was just feeling smartass-ish? I think we all did at that age :P Also trust me science isn't my strong suit either XD
Scientific laws of physics? AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA. Your mom probably gave you too much Nyquil or something. Besides, it's past your bedtime. Go to sleep. AHAHAHAH. That's funny.
arcade fire always gives me some nostalgic feeling and i love it. whenever i listen to them and feel like i'm going to be forever young hahahaha lame but whatever
See Paolo Nutini's acoustical cover of this song.... So different to this version. I JUST saw Paolo's cover and had to see Arcade Fire's version because I had nothing to compare Paolo's cover to. (Never heard of Arcade Fire).... Love Paolo's version much more. Can't understand what this group is saying.
@rzrbkgrl They each shine. AF's an anthem get off your butt sound. Paolo is more sensitive and introspective full of that cute Paolo stuff. Don't you just want to hug him? I do!
@00dude3 i totally agree with you...i saw them live in Moncton before U2. I had like no knowledge of them before and now I'm like "these guys are awesome!"
The great thing about great music is the feeling of nostalgia. Throughout any bad time in my life, including the present, I've been able to find the songs that permeated the past. This is definitely one of them.
I disagree. I think its important to be critical of bands. I like this band and this song in particular but this passion should be saved for bands like the beatles
@jboxer11111 Wtf , man? Just enjoy Arcade or is it like your passion may come to an end? No. People listen to different bands at a time. This thing of yours - it's stupid. You're only foolin' yourself with this kind of thoughts, because you stop yourself from discovering so many GREAT bands and artists out there. :)
great song, great lyrics, great band, what else is there to say, if you think they suck thats cool, it doesnt change my mind that they are Great...it just is your waste of breathe or time, it doesnt change my thought process so you are wasting your time.....thanks...
I don't know if this next part relates to anyone, but I usually find that when I play my music, I reminiscing to it relating to the place I was at the time. So therefor I wanted to play the most beautiful of songs in the places I love most. This usually is where the music derives from. I can tell you right now that Arcade Fire can be played anywhere.
Oh I remember when I first heard this. It was in the where the wild things are trailer, but I didn't know what the song was. Sometime later I bought the Funeral cd and when it got to this I had a braingasm. This song is amazing.
Whenever the trailer for "Where the Wild Things Are", I would always tear up listening to this song. There's something about this song that brings back childhood memories and makes me wish that I don't have to ever grow up.
I've been so bored with music lately. This band is unbelievable. I don't know where the hell I've been the past 6 or 7 years.
