Succexy - METRIC

[canadianAK47]

succesticles



[ovechkin100]

i feel sick after that video

[ImmtheLizardQueen]

Probably the most underrated band ever

[elmospornomouth]

Not to be a dickhead, but the album is "Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?" not "Live It Out".

[hailscot]

Wow, I doing a WW1 essay and this video just complete it.

[KalikaInLeather]

@hailscot you do realize in the vid the uniforms etc indicate it' from WWII not WWI right? xD (and I'm a girl..)

[hailscot]

@KalikaInLeather I know it just kinda helps seeing it is still talking about wars but meh.

Why did you tell me you're a girl?

[Weps21]

@KalikaInLeather

THe uniforms are a mix. One GI Joe is wearing EDRL Poplin, the other is wearing Kahaki and Wool, and the other is wearing M81 Woodland.

[KalikaInLeather]

@hailscot good, no pb ;) and I, lets say, specify my gender coz most of the time in war-related exchanges, people just assume you're a guy (and if they dont agree with you, it must mean you're a 30 yr old living in mom's basement jerking off to military vids - well you get the idea xD ) and I'm just an actress / history buff especially about ww2 and the beginning of armed Resistance by the young communists in Paris.. wow, mode my life OFF xD

[Ivemadethisaccount]

@KalikaInLeather I'm 29 reaching 30 and I still living with my parents but in m y room. I spend most of my time playing video games working out drinking tea and wanking, I sleep more than 12 hours a day sleeping and I dont work...Still looking like if I were 19 or 20..I can't imagine any better life than this. I'm a very sensitive person Why do you bust each other saying one is 30 yr old and living with mommy?.I feel like a eunuch....

[NotForEating]

@Ivemadethisaccount omg i love you

[Zepthire]

@Ivemadethisaccount You are amazing!

[strawman007]

I love how the ARMY guy low crawls the fuck out of there and then becomes the guy calling the shots under fire. This song and video are so true! FUCK THE NWO!

[SethHesio]

I fucking love Metric.

[adrian19818]

very very very nice sound and video! :)

[theyrzero]

It's on Old World Underground NOT LIO! Cmon.

[ViviCamilaJara]

@theyrzero :O it's true

[fadsafda]

Its cool that the ss sounds in "so succexy" sound like open high hats and actually fit the beat

[pretzelsreserected]

I looked up Succexy, and couldn't find a Definition. I guess Metric is the new Dr. Suess.

[enfuriae1]

Military men are trained to beat their wives. I was married to one for 11 years so I know...they're shit. Girls beware...

[OmalleyDoc]

@enfuriae1 Uhh sounds like you just have shit choice in guys. Every military man I know is at least decent enough to treat their girlfriend/wife with a minimal amount of respect.

[ZoMommEY]

@enfuriae-sure M. men, like cops & other males who work in potentially violent & threatening jobs do have a higher rate of spousal abuse then other men but it's an unfair indictment to say they are all abusive.U don't have 2 b military to beat ur wife. It's better to point out the warning signs and tell women if they find themselves in a situation thats abusive how 2 get out. I know they R not "trained" 2 beat their wives but that there is a systemic prob that the military needs to address!

[ZoMommEY]

@enfuriae1 Also males who are into other violent and traumatic situations have a greater rate of spousal abusive if they are not helped. This is where as a former wife of a abusive man who was military, could be useful in trying to get together with other wives and girlfriends like your self to offer support and to try to get the military to do a better job of seeing to the emotional health of it's men. Tell them that they are not only failing the men but their wives and children as well.

[dontaskmeanything4l]

metric should just die, it's not fair to the rest of the world. they're making all other bands sound shitty.

[ReploideY]

So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy So succexy

[kentoshogun1987]

So sexy.

[CLASHofTHElonders]

wow i turned 20 a week ago and i want those toy guns :\

[Doodorz]

PANCAKES FUCKING SUCK. SOMEONE ARGUE WITH ME BECAUSE IT'S NOT EVEN RELEVANT TO THE VIDEO

:D

[donutfairy5010]

@Doodorz pancakes aren't vacuums, therefore they cant suck!



[CLASHofTHElonders]

@donutfairy5010 AND they are not girls mouths so they can't suck......further more proof they can't suck

[Downsight]

....This is such a fucked up video, and yet I loved it. xD

[1Jaader]

╭∩╮（︶︿︶）╭∩╮ my god people who cares about the oil! listen to the song!

[distilledlaw34]

This is a great dedication to what Mark Twain would call our "uniformed assassins" - in other words, the worthless pieces of shit we refer to as "troops" or "soldiers".

[devourerofbabies]

@HappyCynic22 The US doesn't invade other countries for oil supply.

[devourerofbabies]

@mshara1 It's true, they don't. It's not about supply. How much oil does a trillion dollars buy? It's not about obtaining oil. It's about who gets to make money selling it.

[mshara1]

@devourerofbabies Spot on.

[DubDubh]

@devourerofbabies Not anymore, they don't.

[pbspiritcat]

i miss the days when metric was cool.

[USED3DT]

@pbspiritcat who says they are not cool anymore, I mean u and I are here, now, and well im pretty cool if you ask me!

[mshara1]

@pbspiritcat They're not anymore? :)

[devourerofbabies]

@pbspiritcat YOU MISS YESTERDAY?

[Varthrias]

This made me miss my G.I. Joe toys T_T

[xMelancholyBaby]

Please tell me I wasn't the only one rooting for the Green Unit--for Toy Story's sake.

[Shiftingdead]

sick video thanks for making

[darkgunner929]

This song isn't on LIve it out it's on Old World Undergournd Where Are You Now.

[hiyamike99]

So after loving this song for x years, drunk on a monday night monday/evening, I click on this video because I think it would be awesome to see Emily Haines since she is currently rock sexuality personified....

Oh god.... oh man what am I watching... nothing could beat denial indeed.

[TheYanimer]

i like how she say ''cexy''

[OfficialVGOvideos]

Cool to the 10th Power!

[MaxC17]

DUDE WICKED VIDEO!!!!!!!

[JessseXD]

the video is awesome!!

[Tenderoni1218]

@JessseXD don't you just love it paired with this song. ahh its so stimulating!

[micalishis]

Is this band still considered Indie?

[user98xp]

@micalishis

Probably not after Fantasies.

[13lackfriday]

@micalishis who cares? you should be asking if they're still sonically indefatigable. and the answer to that is: yes. supremely, incorrigibly yes. 

[TheMidwestsk8ter]

Are economy and way of life isnt working were headed down a dark path. Just because the big kids up in wasthington says this how we should live dont make it right! The venus project.com, jaque fressco look him up on youtube.

[Lucashans]

This video is brilliantly directed!

[poolman304]

This is a really amazing video

[GearsofMadness]

@nothing980454 Metric is Canadian.

[DJTemporus]

@GearsofMadness So is Billy Talent

[laru09]

robot chiken!

[uYakuza]

SO SO SEXY

[1Jaader]

@uYakuza its succexy

[TyPatSmith]

I like how no one even mentioned the vid. I thought it was really good... succexy even!

[L0veepanicc]

You got the info wrong, the album is Old World Underground, Where Are You Now? (2003)

[jarak36]

@HappyCynic22 actually, you are wrong.

[TheRogerelis]

is so good



[TheAverageCanadian]

I remeber the first time I heard this song, it was on a burnt cd a friend gave to me. It was odd 'cause the cd was full of As I Lay Dying, Killswitch, etc., then out of nowhere... "Combat Baby" and "Succexy" haha What a combo.

[EtripsTenshi]

What is with the US and thinking everyone has a hard on for them. If your from another country, and would rather listen to some good Canadian music like Metric then listen to the Americans beat of their egos. Thumbs up.

[MmmCouchPotato]

Reads first line of highest rated comment.

Asks self: Did I click on the right video?

[LumpyGents]

Metric so awesome. So vibrant about war

[superearthbender]

...why is it that when I click on a video to listen to music, I'm enslaved to the appearance of completely unrelated arguments.

[legendofyeti]

@superearthbender welcome to the internet

[legendofyeti]

@superearthbender welcome to the internet...

[JadeCullen13]

@superearthbender seriously! It get's annoying sometimes.

[micalishis]

@superearthbender It's called don't look at the comments. Ya' know, that is kind of why they made a video.

[superearthbender]

@micalishis I said it because I thought it was funny, however you couldn't have guessed that. My own comments litter youtube with unrelated arguments.

But hey, I got 124 thumbs up! xP

It's shallow, but sadly I believe we all seek (shallow) social confirmation, whether we deserve it or not. ^.^

[hockeychickadee]

great vid, great message behind the song.

[karsonvan]

@HappyCynic22 usa is a joke. has none of its own natural resources. country sucks. give it 15 years it will be a U.S.S.R. once powerful now nothing. You prob shot blanks but i bet if you didnt your kids would grow up in a millitary controlled country with none of its own resources. Looser country full of faggots. thanks

[1Jaader]

@karsonvan we all know now that your a terrorist.

[Oghnat]

El video es espectakular jaja en sero

[Kirthey]

Why does it say that it's from Live It Out when it's from OWU?

[wesily]

@HappyCynic22 don't know who told you about the States running outta oil, when you're the country with the most oil reserves.. larger than Saudi Arabi who are the largest oil PRODUCING country but not with the most oil RESERVES. gotta love the American thinking "oh everyone hates us" ... maybe heres a trick for you and all the others that voted "like". pull your heads out of mainstream media and quit being so narrowminded.

i'm ready to be flamed by naive people now

[RatherWicked]

@HappyCynic22 America is not running out of oil. Were simply using everyone else's first, we still have plenty.

[wesily]

@RatherWicked agreed dude. yea i don't know who told them about the States running outta oil, when they're the country with the most oil reserves.. larger than Saudi Arabi who are the largest oil PRODUCING country but not with the most oil RESERVES. gotta love the American thinking "oh everyone hates us" ... maybe heres a trick. pull your heads out of mainstream media and quit being so narrowminded.

[Jesucristo69Tube]

So funny!

[batfreak28]

this isnt off the live it out album

[AlmightySteve]

@batfreak28 I giggled to myself when I noticed that.

[fignewton0000]

omg this video is awesome

[emm5683]

metric's videos are amazing

[chowsoljer]

great song where is my rubber hk!!!!!!!!

[defygravityy]

We're for the most part passive and/or apathetic to the wars waged by our politicians. Who cares why we're in Iraq, I wanna see if Snooki says something funny on Jersey Shore tonight :P

[DarkFoxV]

@defygravityy sadly the case..

[csinyfanforever]

"passive attraction, programmed reaction" this would be a perfect description of society..

[alecbh13]

I see an M1 Carbine, M14, Barret .50, and MP5 so far. :D

[lolh4x]

@alecbh13 Yeah you call of duty playing faggot.

[alecbh13]

@lolh4x Oh good lord. I've played the last 3 CODs and beaten them in a day each, and not played again. I learned nothing from those games, I knew it all before that. I own a freaking K98k, I just like guns. Not video games. Get a life. >.<

[Arsonloke]

this vid is trippy

[cartman3215]

@SeanPatrickMartinez He has a valid point im sorry you cant debate and his reading material extends beyond go dog do

[Atticusoe]

2:53 - 3:02 , i believe that i was made like this

[TheLorenzzza]

AMAZING WORK!!! I love Metric + Soldier Dolls this is amazing!!! LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

[AzureSwan]

This song isn't from Live it Out, it's from Old World Underground. =/

[metricLover9999]

lets drink to the military.

the glass is empty.

aha loovvee it!!!

[xoxborderlinebunny7]

sick video!!! :D

[ohportugaloh]

I have a lisp! And you wouldn't believe how hard it is to say So Succexy! I don't even try anymore ahahahahahh

Love Metric<3

[FxxkingUp]

This video is... Strong.

And brilliantly directed.

[Lucashans]

@FxxkingUp thanks

[Lucashans]

@FxxkingUp Thanks

[cienade]

Conspiracy theorists are cute. The only hidden truth of 9/11 was that the plane over Pennsylvania was shot down by an American fighter jet before it could cause damage. Everything else was legit. George Bush didn't kill thousands of his own people for an eight year term.

If he was the man we thought he was, he would've taken a third term under War Measures. Also, every war you American's has been in has been just and I have completely supported them, despite whatever the inciting incident is.

[1ataloss1]

this reminds me of the book 1984

[Calebus]

There are very strong paralells, good eye! It's one of my favourite books and I didn't even consider the comparison!

[Kim19812001]

I also really like the band, but I do think that a lot of people are willfully ignorant. Truth be told. Had there not been as many wars fought over as many issues that have been fought; there is no way she would be dancing around in that awesome mini dress or have the right to say anything at all. It would be "stand behind your husband and shut your mouth!" It tends to be a bit hypocritical at some point. Like, "Thanks for my rights now shut up and you're wrong!"...Just saying!

[supernautistaken]

takes a winner like you to think that it is neccesary to murder people in order to live free...wait, you're probably right, maybe a few extra wars need to be fought

[1029blue]

@Kim19812001 There are still men who do that. How does externalizing the problem by waging wars in other countries solve that problem?

[teamTakila]

@Kim19812001

I think she is more referring to the current war that is going on.

Maybe I'm pulling a straws but that's what I got from the song.

Especially from the lyrics "Faces to fill and cars to feed "

considering the only real reason the US is in the Middle East

is to get oil. But I could be reading into it too much.

[nbrigmon]

It's about America being this imperialist power that they've always wanted to be. All America is about is policing country's.

That's why I'm getting the hell out of it.

[PunchingMirrors]

"All we do is talk, sit, switch screens

As the homeland plans enemies"

The public are so distanced from the wars that its like watching a film or playing toy soldiers, and most people have no idea the horrors that are taking place. If you vote or pay taxes you are supporting this.

Yes, the homeland are planning enemies as we speak to justify more wars, and less freedom. Controlled explosions blatantly brought down the WTC.

You should think about this and start doing something about it.

[PunchingMirrors]

There is only one war; and that is the war the elite are fighting againt the people of every nation to rid them of their freedom, sovereignty, family, and the control of their own labour and their own destiny. Every war is a civil war. The only answer is to not fight, but to start loving and living.

[ping6uod]

just say So Succexy over and over, the S's make the cymbal sound.

brilliant!!!!

[sonyasurprise]

can someone explain too me what this song is about?

[gypoj]

the impression i get is, is that while we chat about war, there are people already fighting for the right for us to talk about it :)

[Tnig01]

your view on this video is a such a good demonstration of "the conformation bias".

you see what you want to see. This video and this band is very anti-war. They arn't supportive at all of what the U.S. armed forces have done, quite frankly, neither am I.

[gypoj]

what have the U.S army done aside from increase their nations Hippocratic ambitions? I hope you are not saying I'm a conformist ;)

[BsUeFFvAeLnO]

Cool song ... vid freaked the shit outta me though !

[karajazz13]

me and my friend have that dolls house we used t in our videos.

[Cora452]

for the songs that have no videos Metric should make lyric vids... that way every single metric song would be avalible to youtubers to hear^^ It's difficult to find some of them... same with Emily Haines' singles she should do that too lol I want to hear Reading in Bed damn it LOL

[sonyasurprise]

agreeed!

[hahaeliz]

I love the song--

but for someone who has a lame retainer which makes her talk with the craziest lisp ever, this song is killer to sing along with XD. It's cool... I'll have it out by October when I am seeing Metric!

[staceysmail]

I want the last 20 seconds of my life back - the amount of time required to read this comment.

[Cora452]

Oh come on! After all the awesomeness they've put out they're allowed to have a fun crazy (maybe creepy cuz I don't like ken dolls) video ^^

[RonB999]

Really?! Well i don' think everyone that watches this vid are all stuck up on the quality of the video. Metric gets taken very seriously by tons of people. Oh and I can think of a cheap low quality video that launched a bands career it's called Longview by Green Day.

[BsUeFFvAeLnO]

Im not knocking the video or the band, i love both. Just the idea of childs dolls walking around freaked me out. I cant believe a throw away comment like that would cause you to get your arse out. Clearly youtube should censor what can be posted on here ! haha.

[DoomMeows]

Awesome job animating this video!

[ch3rubrock]

its like saving private ryan all over again

[frammyboise]

Cool video :)

[Dairy3Queen]

Lmao, its Combat Baby de ja vu! XD

[Madlib604]

Metric needs a remix collab with Madlib

[Madlib604]

I Luv Metric!! Buy Lega; people. U shud be Ashamed of yourselfs

[rodneyroyce18]

people mark off anything that is not their taste as mainstream (especially people who are into indie and punk ) the way it works is as such , a person gets into a band or artist for a certain sound but just because you like a certain style does not mean a band such as metric cannot express themselves in different sounds . an artist that is mainstream must have set out from the begining to make money and who just follows trends based on what sells such as hannah montana

[shebooboodai]

I love Hannah Montana!

[rodneyroyce18]

o god. then what the hell are u duing listening to metric

[shebooboodai]

Just listening to good music, check out Reggie Watts.

[tizzful]

you just said people listen to music based on sounds they like, not on style... shebooboodai may just like the sound of some miley songs leave them be ahahah

i love metric

[rodneyroyce18]

but it is the sound people listen for otherwise musicians would be writing books of poetry

[tizzful]

oh no I agree that they do

but then you asked what theyre doing listening to metric because they listen to hannah montana and just meant that they could like the sound of her music and the sound of metrics :)

[hahaeliz]

Typically, I would agree with you that your TV's will somewhat reflect your music... but I LOVE watching Hannah Montana.. a serious guilty pleasure. Metric is my favourite band coming in close with Alexisonfire, Rise Against, Sublime, Radiohead, Pearl Jam..etc. I just find the show very entertaining and the music very good on the ears. It's not really related at all because the typical fans haven't heard of all those good bands. :)

[IronWol1]

I love metric...I am so glad the videos are now available on youtube =D

[snowyywwinters]

metic is just about the best band i heard in long time, i went looking for your albums other day, but couldnt find any of your cds in english shop:( guess il have buy online or something. but its got to be a cd! its all about cds!! fuck itunes

[Leperchan15]

yea digital is just for for entertainment, hardcopies are for music lovers who want to collect their faves.

[beastmodemayn]

Or for people like me who haven't put a stereo with an iPod connection in their car. Cd's are still digital btw, and they have better quality sound than mp3's. But I agree.

[gluestik27]

I agree, the List would be nice to see in HQ =)

[EvanEtrics]

About time you guys jumped on the YouTube bandwagon! It's awesome to see all of your old videos up. But I have to agree with TT25 that The List is missing.

[TerraTempus25]

This video is amazing.

By the way, you guys should definitely post the video for The List, that song is incredible!
