I have always dreamed of singing the harmonic part that Jimmy sings here with Emily on stage, even before I saw this.. I play in a band from Victoria, B.C called Aegis Fang. ..it will happen one day.
hey i went a their show tonight and they finished with this beautiful song omg there my favorite groupe. But a lot of person said that she took something, maybe drug during the show.
Combat baby acoustic live was absolutely amazing. Emily and Jimmy really just became one with the crowd as everyone sang along with them. The best experience ever. Thanks for the great video upload!
combat baby might just be my favorite metric song, okay not really but its definitely in the running for second place. ahhhhhhhhhh love them. i have a girl crush on Emily. haha
just saw them in philadelphia on the 25th and this was one of the highlights of the show. such a beautiful rendition of this song. everyone was just captivated, really amazing!
The entire Vancouver gig was memorable & wonderful but this performance was definitely the highlight of the night. I love it when Metric does acoustic versions of their songs, as Emily's voice shines & being able to hear this version live is an experience that I'll never, ever forget <3. Metric is a brilliant band & they make me proud to be Canadian. I hope they come back real soon.
Their acoustic versions always kick so much ass, which is why their acoustic set at the invite-only "Intimate and Interactive" show at Media Club earlier this year is still a top 2009 highlight.
I so wish I attended that. Hopefully they do something similar down the line & instead, do a show where they perform acoustic versions of all their singles. I'd love to hear a live acoustic version of Gimme Sympathy or even Dead Disco. It would be a dream come true <3.
@duffyfan86 i totally agree.....i just saw them in saskatoon on oct 29...it was fantastic...the best experience of my life...emily touched my hand haha im a loser...but it makes me extremely proud to be a canadian as well....amazing
Haha you're not a loser. I'd be so happy if my musical idol touched my hand. But this gig was definitely the best experience of my life too. When the crowd sang the "do do do" part, I got chills. Metric definitely have the greatest fans in the entire universe. Listening to Metric always makes me feel patriotic & a proud Canadian & happy to live in the greatest country in the world. God bless Canada & Metric & Emily Haines <3.
I was at that show, too! I was way at the back though, but I still had a blast! Seen an old friend there as well, Man was she trashed though, so I did what every good friend does. I pointed and laughed, then helped her up when she fell down.
Ah, good times, good times.
I tried taking some vids, but my 'smart'phone is a piece of crap, so everything is garbled. Ungh!
those fucking harmonies blow me away every time.

Dope video brother. I saw them in London, ON and you couldn't have asked for a better encore to end the night. Glad you got footage of it.

Emily's facial expression from 2:11-2:17 is a priceless interpretation of "I tried to be so nice". :)
