I once listened to all three of their albums on a really long bike ride (approximately 2 1/2 hours) this song and the performers are nothing less than extraordinary, its a combination of innocence and pure beauty, so much emotion. I wish I could right up there on that stage singing along
Look up a band called "While The City Sleeps", kind of similar colourful soundscapes and big emotional crescendos, especially the song "Rooftop Dreamers".
@alexandrabimini The combination of your comment and the listening of this song actually made me cry those tears. Because what you just said is so true. Just that moment where you realize all of the beauty around you that you never noticed before... it's moving.
@daforceweilder7 That moment will never leave you.The beauty was always there, just outside a window, a window of opportunity .This song had only taken your hand and brought you to that window,and pushed aside the curtains of doubt so you can see with your own eyes all the beauty that is awaiting you.And the best part is,if you accept this beauty,it's yours to keep.
It's snowing in the UK at the moment and I'm fearing it will disrupt my plan to see these guys next week, so if the snow buries my neighbourhood, then I'll dig a tunnel, from my house to the LG Arena.
its apparently handy to play the way she is playing because it means you can more easily access the toms (with your right hand) while still playing the hi-hat =). also, im not too sure but i think a left handed drummer will probably play a left handed drum kit, like dom from muse
I dunno. She may be left-handed; I know a lefty drummer and he would play a right-handed kit that way.
Setting the kit up to left-handed for Regine might be too much effort to bother with; They'd have to re-set the mics and check the levels. Much easier to just let it be and let her play despite the minor inconvenience. Doesn't seem to bother her haha.
regine may or may not be left-handed but then again the same could be said about jeremy, who drums most of the time and so she may have just learned to play that kit as is
no, some people just learn that way. it's called open rather than a crossover. if you listen to dave matthews band at all, carter beauford (the drummer) plays open like that too.
@prdrums77 Just a little tip, drummers tend to use their originaly more dominant hand quite frequently (unless their born ambedextrous) so if you watch her hands you can find out. p.s. I doubt shes ambidextrous!
Man, musical genius aside, the quality of this Youtube vid is extraordinary. Why only a couple thousand views? I hung out with Arcade Fire once (friends with their opening act). Very nice, warm, absolutely 0 ego.
One of the things that I most like about Arcade Fire is that all of its members really put their hearts into the music and...you can realy feel it. Amazing *---*

I find it pretty awesome that Regine doesn't cross her arms when she plays the hi-hat. Is she left handed or something?

its apparently handy to play the way she is playing because it means you can more easily access the toms (with your right hand) while still playing the hi-hat =). also, im not too sure but i think a left handed drummer will probably play a left handed drum kit, like dom from muse
