I really enjoy this Band, no matter what they do live. They sound Awesome, and the Album is great too. The experience is the best part, to see them live.
@808pb Even though I typically go for more of a minimal approach to music, I totally love the additional vocal fills. In fact I hardly listen to the album version. Arcade Fire put on the best shows ever, that will change your life forever not the shins as stated in Garden State by Natalie Portman
I love how Regine sings along even when she's not supposed to... it's like she loves the music so much she can't help but sing along to every word like an adoring fan. :-P
Everyones entitled to their opinion but I'm wondering why someone who is closed-minded enough to only listen to black metal was on an arcade fire video?
Unbelievable song. The first time I heard this was on TV watching them live and it blew me away, amazingly haunting lyrics and unbelieveble live performance.
i don't listen to this song more than about twice a year. i don't want to spoil it, so i keep it for special occasions. it's too good for just listening in the car or on the way to work.
I hate to feed the troll, but check out TweedleDumm1's YouTube channel. It's pathetic. He hates everyone. I'm sure he lives in a red state because that kinda stupid just wouldn't fly anywhere else.
What did his parents do to him to make him so angry? I think someone needs a little therapy or, at the very least, some lithium.
However, there is one band that is so AWESOME!!! Saw them live at Dublin Castle, Camden - JUST FUZZ.
So much explosive energy!!! Everyone was spell bound for the whole 40 minute set. Never seen anything like it in years and I've been listening to music for a long time....
I was really cheesed off when the Beeb didn't put the footage on their website, which they did for almost every other performance they showed. Great live band
crazy amazing, absolute best band of our time, original, flauless, and suprisingly great live, which most bands have problems with, i love these arcade fire, i NEED to see these guys live, cant wait till they come to town! my sister and i will definatley be going that concert!
Shoulda headlined. Whilst in no way knocking the Arctic Monkeys, I don't think AM bring anything new to their live shows. Arcade Fire on the other hand...just wow.
yeah i was at thr front for them and bjork, and while she was fantastic, they couldn't better these guys. plus two blind-drunk old men relieved themselves on my pal during bjork.
These and Bjork together were just MAGIC, those that were there will remember it forever! Up there with Blur at Reading '99 and Yeah Yeah Yeah's at Leeds '04 for me
The most perfect ensemble. Love'em.

I love how everyone in the band in is singing. It's even better than the album version because of it! Which says alot!

The additional vocal fills sound OK, but take away from the song. They sound totally forced in and clash with the momentum of the song.

because one of my friends
told me to listen to arcade fire
that i might like them
but they suck
they are just too soft for me
sorry
just because i dont like the band
doesnt mean you have to give me 10 thumbs down you asshole
"everyones entitled to their opinion"

Yeah but the closed-mindedness to just go onto a vid of an indie band and start plugging black metal because you listen to genre over quality.
