  • Think I know someone feeling this way right now. breaks my heart. :'(

  • This song make me cry everytime I hear it. It's just that remember me how I feel when my boyfriend are in his shitty mood and doesn't talk to me...

  • If you never read this or if it gets lost a midst all of these comments, know that I can not say anything to you anymore.. I just can't. There isn't enough words to even form the way I feel about you.. I would say that "I love you", but you are more than that.. You mean so much more than that. By trial and error in my life, all the bad and good, you were the best of it all.. You are more to me than my very life, you are the ground beneath my feet, the air I breathe and this heart that beats.

  • my friend asked me whats so great about this song..i slapped her across the face looked her in the eyes and said clearly you've NEVER had your heart taken from you just to have it torn apart before your eyes D': and youve NEVER had someone to make you cry and have their name stuck in your mind like its written across your eyelids :/ sorry rant moment ):

  • @Revolutetheworld nail on the head man :(

  • I keep erasing my play count on iTunes for this song, because I don't want anyone to see how not over him I am.

  • @halihann agreed... :/

  • 0:01

    Richard Reed Perry is so attractive. I love how he and Win wear suspenders. :)

    1:16

    love that picture. They're all so happy.

    1:43

    Wow! There's that little girl in the lyric book for Neon bible next to Richard.

  • It's wierd. This is my seconf least favourite song on the album 'Funeral' but its brilliant. What a band.

  • i'll give my life for see them <3

  • teen nick just sent me here, and i actually love this song :D

  • i took a "what is your slow dance song" quiz on teen nick and this song is kinda me.

  • Comment removed

  • Im stoned out of my mind and hearing this just blew my mind

  • @music2012 I'm sorry that you fell so ummm strongly about this if you are going to wright a paragraph on it and thank you I am pretty cool FOR MY AGE :)

  • EPIC!

  • @motherdestiny just to let you know 12 my little sis listens to them, and other indie rock, so do all her friends. it almost made me cry with joy when i found this out. :')

  • I really love the album and song The Suburbs, this song and the album Funeral in my opinion is much better than The Suburbs away. And this only has 211k views.

  • Ils disent qu'il se fane si vous le laissez, amour a été fait pour l'oublier.J'ai découpé votre nom à travers mes paupières, vous prie pour la pluie que je prie pour la cécité.

    It looks prettier in French, I think.

  • @NobodyDaGreekOne What you wrote means nothing in french ;)

  • @motherdestiny tell me about it. my cousin honestly thought 'indie' meant 'indian music' as in bollywood-movies.

  • This song makes me cry :(

  • Comment removed

  • @ynass80 , I think it makes everyone tear up a little. Even me, and I rarely cry...

    I think it has something to do with the way Win sings it.

  • I'm 15 and I have loved arcade fire since 2005 all my friends listing to lady gaga and crap. There good but I like real bands all of arcade fire's music is beautiful its just plain genius.

  • @Brysonzxp I'm only 5 months in the womb and I'm the only fetus that likes Arcade Fire, all the other fetus' listen to the little kid with the hair that looks like a helmet and lady caca. How unique you are, every video I see now has the "I'm only (insert age here) years old and I'm the only one that listens to this music" comment. We get it, your so cool.

  • @music2012 just what I always wanted to tell all these "hey im only xy (insert a number from 10-15) years old and i love this music since I am yz (xy-5). All my friends listen to abc (insert some random teenie pop idol) but I still like it because I'm a rebell and I just stick to what I do, thinking "whatever" *gangsta gesture* "

    so well done, I have always been to lazy. ;)

    anyway: GREAT song, and this coming from someone who only just turned... *oh you nearly got me* ;)

  • @music2012 I get that you're tired of these comments but just becuz you see them in every video doesn't mean they're not true. I actually think it's great that young ppl (by that I mean Brysonzxp, myself & many others lol) have a good taste in music, & maybe they come here & say it out becuz they have nobody to share it with (especially their friends who don't appreciate this type of music) But if they add something like: "Thumbs up if you also love...", that's when it really gets annoying.

  • fucking beautiful.

  • Love this band

  • Pure love

  • Awesome song and video! I love Arcade Fire and hope to see them play live one day!

  • 6 x dickheads!

  • 6 people didn't snuff it out before there mom walked in there bedroom

  • so bittersweet. just beautiful

  • ke raioz de muzika >< eso duerme

  • The lyrics...awwww..

  • 6 ppl must have missed the like button

  • Arcade Fire: epic music, true musicians.

  • why dnt they play music like dis on d radio anymore.excellent

  • There is no real way to describe this song. It's about everything, and nothing, all at the same time.

    I only know that I'm inspired to have the words "Love you" across my eyelids <3

  • First cd weird haha

    Second CD Amazing!

  • finally i find this song!!!!! XD

  • This song gives me goosebumps...

  • "I carved your name across my eyelids. You pray for rain, I pray for blindness." <3

  • since the first time i heard this song, i was captured by its beauty, pain, love and passion

  • Seeing them in december!!! So excited!

  • I don't know how anyone can possibly think that any song ever recorded sounds better live than the recorded version.

    The whole reason of recording and producing a song is to record it at it's absolute peak.

    Live songs may "feel" better. But they never sound it.

  • @soyousay18 It depends. If they play the song exactly the same live then the recorded version will be better. It can't be topped. But a band like the chili peppers for example add new parts to songs and play solos different live sometimes. That type of live playing can make songs better live because they give them a whole new dimension. In my opinion, that is what great live bands do.

  • @soyousay18 Many times the recorded version is too overproduced and loses it raw quality. There are some songs that i hate on the album, but love when played live.

  • Btw this isnt emo. It isnt even CLOSE to emo music. This is indie pop

  • Wow my first time hearing this song and im in love with it <3

  • makes my eyes swell up with tears and clogs up my throat rendering me silent and puts my heart to shudder with melancholy... I cry, and cry.

    then I put their other songs to cheer right back up again..

  • saw them in Toronto last weekend with my love. They were incredible live. They sound every bit as good live. So much energy on stage. The visuals were visceral and appropriate. Would see them again anytime anywhere.

  • This is incredibly underrated song

  • I think this song has some good lyrics.

  • better than x-factor, but only just

  • They played this Sunday night in Chicago, a suggestion from members of the National.

  • i have never found a live version that really captures this song.. it pretty floors me everytime i hear it, even 5 years later..

  • I've always loved hip-hop, but I've grown to love to indie rock too. If there's room for Ghostface, there's room for an amazing band like Arcade Fire. This song moves me.

  • @ricerice566 and room for the RZA too...

  • How are they so awesome!?

  • arcade fire is the modern day arcade fire. the beatles and jefferson airplanes have all done what they have done. it is in the past, and forever will stay that way. we should simply feel lucky that bands like this one are here now.

  • @stephenzimnoch

    Amen to that!

  • stunning

  • gosh so much better live

  • Makes me miss my baby,

  • song of the day!

    hard to pick my favorite arcade fire song so i picked one that wasn't but that i still liked...does that make sense? also, just got my MSG august tickets in the mail. now i need to pick someone to come with! yay!

  • these guys are a modern day jefferson airplane. the only band that i can compare it to. back then people listened to zeppelin and today wolfmother. i would take my jefferson airplane and arcade fire any day of the week.

  • Comment removed

  • This moves me but I don't understand in what way. I just love it.

  • makes me cry...

  • Very beautiful song!

  • Love how this song changes mood so seamlessly.

  • wow this is on the level of beatles music

  • Got's a late 1950's riff, bring that shit back with your added flavor, yea! Right next to my zappa and Mushroom records

  • beautiful song.... Jeff Lynne (ELO) would be proud for the final fade out

  • i showed my music theory teacher this band, n he was highly impressed.. then i had to analyze this song and convert it to all voices... which killed the song for me for some time but its just too good to get killed. i love it =]

  • Go Canaduh!!

  • This is pretty good, but the This Is Ivy League cover of this is definitely better.

  • emo? this is heartfelt music, emo is pointless whining. This is music with actual depth

  • Emo? No not in the slightest man.

  • don't listen to it if you think its shitty

  • We should all listen to momonanta, he definitely knows a horrible song when he hears it; i mean take a look at his favorites list!

  • @momonanta Didn't your mama ever tell you if you can't say anything nice, Don't say anything at all?

  • gotta love canadians :D

  • intelligent, emotional and real music. organic sounds that are a pleasure to the ear - each song tells a whole world of stories.

    this particular song changed my life. i LOVE arcade fire.

  • they make me proud to be from montreal

  • arcade fire is a great band with style

  • Funeral only stayed behind Kid A on Pitchfork greatest albums of the decade.

    Can`t wait for the new album next year.

    Love Arcade Fire

  • two amazing bands and albums!

  • This makes me so emotional. The way he begs in the chorus is heartbreaking.

  • This is the sort of music that should be played on the radio. #1 favorite song, would kill to see them live.

  • @i2Life Yep. Sometimes, if I'm in the car or something, the radio will turn on, and just the crap that people listen to... it makes me sad. People are missing out!!

  • @i2Life ottawa cisco bluse fest! , i get to meet them :D

  • @meh448 I cannot wait to see them at the Osheaga music and art festival in Montreal! However, as a Montreal band playing at their largest Montreal performance to date... meeting them seems highly unlikely, I am quite envious of you for that.

  • @i2Life

    If it's any consellation, Arcade Fire gets played relatively regularly here in Belgium.

  • @i2Life They were beautiful live. I saw them April 27th in Indianapolis. I was in the second row. I was so sad when the concert was over, I hated the drive home and not seeing Win singing /:

  • @i2Life I've just seen them in Milan oh! what a brilliant concert! they're all great, still feeling good vibes, and today they're playing in Lucca (Tuscany) .........glad to share this amazing songs ciao!

  • amaaazing!!

  • Great words to a song that hasn't really gotten the recognition it deserves.This song says what I would like to say to someone I loved!

    STL MO #1 DJ STL MO DJDEB Nov.11/2009 LOL Be apart of the Love Revolution!

  • i am doing a music degree and my teacher recommended this band.

  • @Simon0 They are a really great band!! I've heard of a handful of people who find out about them via their teachers, but don't let that make you think they're only a teacher-ish band... They're much much more than that. :)

  • i swear im gonna be in love with this band forever!!!!!!!!! They are my favorite :)

  • there first album funeral, is a work of mastery. there second one is great too. but the first one is there best

  • ive listened to this song on repeat while i do my homework every day this week

  • omg if i had a dress on this would be the perfect moment in history

  • perfect or the closest perfect gets.

  • "I carved your name across my eyelids

    you prayed for rain, I prayed for blindness..." OMG I love those lines. One of my favorite lines in any Arcade Fire song.

    This whole song is just brilliant.

  • wow me too :D

    i love those lyrics (:

    <3

  • This reminds of of all great loves past and present its so beautiful and touching I love it

  • so true!

    agree with everything you said!

  • love.this.song.

  • <3 :)

  • This song is beautiful!

    <3<3<3

  • this band is like an explosion to the brain

    you don't know whats hit it and it will never be the same afterwards

    i love them <3

  • Lyrically and musically beautiful. Definitely one of the songs that will never get old for me. :)

  • this song makes me want to cry

  • I love this damn song. It's my favorite. I think I prefer the recording to any performance they have done of it live. For some reason it doesn't have the same effect... if that makes any sense. It's just fantastic.

  • Really? I usually feel the opposite way about Arcade Fire songs. I think they're a million times better live than in studio...

    But, hey, that's just me.

  • @xxDragonxxWolfxx

    i would agree with that

    everyone besides this one,

    they just dont capture the lead in into the breakdown the same

  • @whoseline27 I disagree, i aw them live a few months ago and it was the best concert ive ever seen. They were fantastic.

  • the music is almost artistic..it is

    its like painting..that has so many colors in it.

    its unbelievably perfect

  • I carved your name across my eyelids

    You pray for rain

    I pray for blindness.

  • very moving song!

    love it! =-D

  • Any thoughts on what this song is about? Everyone says it's so sweet, but to me it's sounds like he is obessed with an ex, and stalking her. I love the song, but yeah.

  • @Julxoxo

    Obsessed? Hmm, you say it like it's something that doesn't happen often.

    Everytime we are crushing on someone or the initial phase of falling in love there's a very thin line separating us from obsession. So no wonder so many understand the song and love it so much.

  • Arcade fire is one of the best bands out there. so original and perfect in every way.

  • GORGOUSE, so much u_u

  • Dude everytime I hear this song I cry!!

  • Bitte, denk an mich, weil ich an dich immer denke.

  • This is my fav Arcade Fire song. It bring me to tears at times, it's so moving and beautiful.

  • OMG this song is amazing...can t stop listening!!!!!!!!!!

  • 2:20 across my eyelids... he covers his eye's and says ouch my eye's lids hurt... i shouldn't have done that

  • wtfucking good song

  • probably going to get negative feedback here but i think the this is ivy league cover is 10x better, and i do like arcade fire but if anyone agrees you can reply. took me like 10 hours to find the cover just to listen to it after i heard it once on pandora cause its nowhere on youtube

  • just checked out the ivy league version. I actually don't like it at all. To each his/her own, I suppose.

  • one ov mi top 5 songs by the arcade fire, i can so relate. i luuuv this song

  • I love this

  • she never forgave me. the song is beautiful but it brings pain.

  • love it :)
