Arcade Fire - Empty Room (UNSTAGED)

[TheGitan70]

"Toute ma vie avec toi"

[kinkilu]

wow!!! awesome band!!!

[coooooolio666]

Every song on every album they have made i like!

[tommylilch]

Toute ma vie, etre avec toi

Toute ma vie, etre avec toi

moi J'attends, toi tu pars !!!!!!

[caligirl2191]

@tommylilch translation?

[jens2450]

Very important..

[8000cheese]

@sunfun341 Then stop searching for their songs you idiot. Go listen to friday

[sunfun341]

they SUCK! how can you people think they have any talent at all?!?! id rather listen to rabecca black sing friday ever single day of my life then listen to another one of there goddamnd songs!! gawd! wtf happend to music

[FanyLittle]

@sunfun341 This is real music, music like Rebecca Black and all those computer programmed sounds are what ruined music and made it sound like what it is today. They play instruments it's way harder than just singing to preprogrammed music like most of the mainstreams artist do. They deserve way more recognition.

I'm not saying that I don't listen to mainstream music, I do, but I don't praise mainstream artist as much as I praise groups like Arcade Fire.

[coooooolio666]

nicely put!



[EnjoyTheSurface]

@sunfun341  we all have different tastes in music and whatever .... you know... for me that is a very basic thing.... nothing to get excited about, i am sure there are plenty of music for you to like that´s not Arcade Fire..... :)

[firebolt70]

Defo some ABBA influence in this! Great song!

[sonic777111]

1:45 The bass player seems to be enjoying himself.

Cute violinist at 2:30

[pedronicolazzi]

Great song!!!

[jbro]

fuck vevo commercials

[samdouleur]

Moi, j'attends, toi, tu pars.

It's so sad...

But a lovely song and one of the best on the album

[twr777]

i don't think this band is capable of making a song i dislike... please remove the button from their videos.

[khignutt]

searching in....

[ycanada]

This is one of those songs that gets better each time you listen.

[bootpdx]

Whoever wrote this song is a genius

[summersaveme]

I like the faded empty room.

[prophet15loop]

Regine is my muse Win is such a lucky guy

[law51]

the beginning sounds like like January 1979 by mewithouyou

[beforethree]

"toute ma vie être avec toi" :) Régine is so cool :)

[beforethree]

GREAT :

to vevo> i dont give a shit of lady gaga bitch

[Devastator981]

that chick is wired she should go and lern how to play the drums

[voidoiddroid]

This song is so cool. My 4 year old son and 5 year old twins (one boy & one girl) bug me to play these guys all the time, almost as much as Jeff Buckley or Radiohead. My little hipster tykes. They always wanna bang on my strat & ibanez. Some day I will teach them how to play. They call my Ibanez "Ibananas" ello-elle.

[imgordonfreeman]

@voidoiddroid your kids have some seriously good taste in music bro

[voidoiddroid]

@imgordonfreeman Yeah but they'll make me play certain songs over and over and over. I can't tell you how many times they make me play "we used to wait" and "grace" from buckley. I'd be like, but listen to this other song, and then they cry unless I give 'em what they want. My little focus group.

[imgordonfreeman]

@voidoiddroid yea butler should really think twice about what he wishes for (dear god would you send me a child) yea? and no i dont hate kids i love them not sexually of course...

[voidoiddroid]

@imgordonfreeman I totally agree. At least he could probably afford a nanny or something.

[FRHRST]

@voidoiddroid That's so adorable. Awh, tiny hipsters :')

[Transpacity]

@Bozzy83 - As are you. Glad you respect that - very few on youtube do.

[pierswor63]

I never heard of this group before i saw them in concert...liked their style of music straight away...they're gonna be huge..

[Bozzy83]

this absoulutely shits all over the studio version ...

[Transpacity]

@Bozzy83 in a bad way

[Bozzy83]

@Transpacity i gues u r entitled to your opinion . 

[ninenine909]

New York audiences suck!!! -__-

[TheGawryolek]

<3 Sarah Neufeld. 

[lalitogoblin]

for me, this song is great, maybe the best of the suburbus´s album

[TomArayafied]

@lalitogoblin Except, for maybe, Sprawl II

[lalitogoblin]

for me, this song is great, maybe the best of the suburbus´s album

[Nieves57]

Tunes Award Winner 2010

[vaduzl]

this video , only we rock this video

[tpwlsu25]

@mykalmint400 thanks for the response - did some research afterward and thought maybe that was it. Love that sustain.

[starstruckstarfuck]

VEVO: This is Arcade Fire, a TRUE musical entity. Please refrain from showing me "Tinie Tempah" at the side.

[donnybrooklads]

The Talking Heads of our time

[irishace11]

@donnybrooklads Yech, go back to the 80's with that Talking Heads bullshit. Talk about MOR.

[TheBlablausername]

this a very important band!!!

[anotherbeatlesfreak]

I loved this performance, but... Does anyone else hate how it was mixed? I can barely hear the violins.

[dodgygrd]

@DaArcadeNinja, it's an E-Bow

[Aglenaa]

This song is brilliiant! Album is one of my top 5 of 2010. Arcade Fire are brilliant!

[tpwlsu25]

Moving song off an amazing album in my opinion. Anyone know what the red device the guitarist is using ~0:47 - 0:50 in the video? I'm guessing it's something to sustain notes but have no idea what it is.

[mykalmint400]

@tpwlsu25 its a wee lil laser called a e-bow. that vibrates the string like a pic would.. excepy all lasery. hardly any musicians use it.

[DaArcaneNinja]

They so good live! ill also add it gave me a hint of Sonic Youth's Schizophrenia a little with the guitar feedback

[AdaDeFlavigny]

They are one of the best bands of our days, in my opinion, I can listen to their music over and over....every song seems to make me want to live....to love my life.

I dont know many other songs which touch my soul like their songs.

Im waiting for them to play in Switzerland.

<3

[zepdrummer444]

There's only one word to describe this, Orgasm!

[gurrflapoo]

@zepdrummer444 Eargasm, in fact.

[mtmkarlsson]

Pure Inspiration to me! Plenty of AF in my headphones when I go out running (and any other time).. "Ready to Start" and "Rococo" minutes before a demanding race sets the agenda just right.. Loved you at Dalhalla in Sweden last year!!

[Hail150]

:) no word to describe how much I love this band....

[redifreddy14]

@lolatyourhead yes they all play several instruments...sure the guitars have no SRV or Eric Clapton...but it all fits... if there is one superstar in this band it has to be the drummer... wicked..

[heffernanca]

The members of Arcade Fire look like they should be fixin' my computer rather than being in a Rock band. Unix anyone?

[liganj]

this band is fuckin amazing!!!

[erotpiro]

i like it...

[goldhammerissilver]

I am brillance and you are all uneducated and stupid.

[SuperiorSwagon1]

@goldhammerissilver fag

[administramation]

Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nu­h AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

[314fox413]

they're like straight outta the 80's lol. I love it.

[playitpaiger]

awesome awesome awesome!! they're pure geniuses! 

[clownnookie]

Thanks for sponsoring an awesome band, American Express. At least you're good for something ...

[ewetube3]

@clownnookie arcade fire... never leave home without 'em

[rollin586]

look people, the Arcade Fire are a great band, and that is the end of the argument. it is laughable that someone would consider another "undereducated" and "underexposed" to like the Arcade Fire. I just started getting into them this year, and now I am WISHING i paid more attention to them before. Listen, when someone says something stupid like that, just ignore it. It's not worth arguing with them. I love how this band is so passionate about their music, and that's all that matters.

[James1954May]

Overly dramatic is the perfect word choice. I love watching them screw up their faces acting like their wringing some emotion out of this. People who like Arcade Fire are the kind of people who listen to a song they are told is by Liz Phair and like, and are then horrified when told it was actually by Myley Cyrus. I hate this pretentious politically correct repetitious crap. They can barely play their instruments. Not exactly the Edgar Winter Band.

[callofputy]

@James1954May get the mouse out of your ass and click ur way outta this page cuz douchebag trolls like u that click on a video, pause it so they dont have to listen to it, then write shit like this about things they REALLY know nothing about, should get their fingers chopped of. troll then, nubby.

[James1954May]

@callofputy Another humorless redneck bodyguard heard from.

[TeddyPickerful]

@James1954May Get a life ya fuckin loser

[James1954May]

@TeddyPickerful Okay, I promise I will.

[TheMattC13]

@James1954May cool story bro

[sunfun341]

@James1954May amen bro!

[fuggybootnling]

That violin line combined with the "oooo oooo"s at the end of this song just slay me. Sheer majestic beauty.

[goldhammerislame]

Just look at the crowd. This is one of their up-tempo numbers I'm sure, and just look at the lame crowd. Do they looked moved to you? Have you ever seen a real crowd move?

[goldhammerislame]

"Brought to you by American Express"

Corporate crap.

[goldhammerislame]

They are super lame. If you don't think so, you are too uneducated and underexposed to know any better. The bands they rip-off to do this song didn't have christian rockers hopping around like total dorks like we have here. What's with the half-a-head?  So very deep and important. lol. sux.

[Ancestor2]

@goldhammerislame

Of course, you are entitled to your opinion, but to call anyone who likes them "uneducated and underexposed" makes you look like a total arrogant idiot, considering they are one of the most acclaimed bands today, by everyone from fans to critics to fellow musicians.

In other words, you've just called Bruce Springsteen, U2, Dave Grohl, David Bowie and Radiohead (all self-proclaimed fans) "uneducated and underexposed." ROTFL.

[redifreddy14]

@goldhammerislame

[melovetorun]

@goldhammerislame Fuck you asshole hater. Arcade Fire is God and you are just bitching because there is no justin beaver here your little prick to masturbate too.

[tnerb441]

elementary songs. that chick has a mediocre voice, and all of these people are so overly dramatic they do nothing but piss me off. I gave em a chance, but tnerB has to give them a thumbs down

[hendrix142536]

@tnerb441 man, overly dramatic? I guess that will lead me to ask what your favorite band/act is? I await your response.

[James1954May]

@tnerb441 Gwen Stefani she ain't. Who let this band out of its garage?

[susanajca]

@James1954May For someone who hates AF so much , your sure visit their videos buddy :0

[xBillyTheKidx]

mrs. win is ABSOLUTELY gorgeous.

[lolronilol]

I'm going to go to concerts and do this: 1:20

[LeWeYfilms]

regine always sounds like shes not in her range live.

[redifreddy14]

NOT one of their best efforts.... Regines vocal solo mismatched to her comfort range.. and vocals in general washed out ...mixer dude sleeping at the board... grrr

[Zigabid]

They're so amazing!!! Check out my vids from their show in LA!!!

[tylerdurden1221]

@ryanthiessen19

Yes it did. Wish my band had their patience!

[soleilmh]

Will... honestly, this man is amazing to watch!! What happened to the Motorcycle helmets boys!! Bring that shit back!!!!!

[velad00]

Canadienses... ya decia yo que son muy buenos. no podian ser greengos

[losdaniels1990]

@velad00 PERO Win Butler LA VOZ PRINCIPAL SI ES GREENGO

[tylerdurden1221]

When this band was starting out, it must've been a bitch making any money with all those band members

[ryanthiessen19]

@tylerdurden1221

looks like it turned out to be a good investment

[Veroga9]

can anyone else tell that in this show the suburbs material sounds a little rougher than the other stuff?

[TheAwesomeBomb]

One of my favorites on the album

[Gahan1985]

In level of greatness are New Order in the 80's, Radiohead in the 90's and Arcade Fire in 00's

[jakeadamsonmusic]

@Gahan1985 well that would mean arcade fires greatness is over i think radiohead int the 00's (their best album came out then) and arcade fire in the 10's cuz i think our big band from montreal has even more in front of them

[SihtFukcCokc]

I can't wait to see them live... october 16th, can't you come sooner?!

[TI490M]

one of the best bands in the world :)

[ravenbrite]

Voy a llorar cuando vea esto en vivo... 16 de Octubre!!!!!!!!!!

[trikisllamas]

@ravenbrite A WEBO !!!

[SihtFukcCokc]

@ravenbrite ¡No eres la única! =D

[blatchy]

Is it me or does the chorus sound exactly like the main hook in The Beach Boys Heroes and Villians?

[OWickedOne88]

Watching this Unstaged show was what got me into Arcade Fire -- they're just fantastic. Their music sounds like it belongs anywhere and everywhere. :)

[lespaulnasty31]

the riff in this song reminds me of mewithoutYou's january 1979....i love arcade fire :)

[Circadia]

To all the haters: Wayne Coyne can't sing worth a damn any more. His voice is terrible, especially live. Does it detract at all from the majesty of a Flips live performance? Not in the slightest. Criticise this performance from the comfort of your desk-chair if you must, but if you were at this concert I think we both know you'd be jumping up and down, yelling at the top of your lungs like everyone else. And you'd come out swearing it was the best thing you ever saw.

[platypae333]

@Circadia Wayne Coyne sounds great live! Sure, you can tell his voice is really shitty but he works with it.

[jeffinchi]

live version is a little rough

[auldcraic]

1 word for these guys,awesome

[naticio]

I think the bassist is really GOOD, Win Buttler is really good, Regine is somewhat OK, drums guy is ok, but the rest?

Will is not talented

Red head is not a good guitarrist and in the most of their songs is not giving something meaningful to the songs or active participation or an stron riff...whatever!

regine poorly sings

the violinist does some good stuff, but sometimes only

this GREAT band / compositions deserve better musicians

[oak1236]

@naticio Listen to In the Backseat and tell me Regine can't sing.

[naticio]

@oak1236 agree, that is the best song she actually sings

[LeWeYfilms]

@oak1236 she sings great in all of the studio stuff, its just that she sounds shitty in a lot of their live stuff where its all her. like haiti and sprawl 2 and the bridge in this song.  she sounds not in her range, that she cant project at all.

[blackbeltbrown]

@naticio but they sound good all together and that is what matters.

[dRuNkEnLuLaBiEs]

love this song...but i feel like this video is really trippy.

[srawbrryblondi25]

Without pulling out my French-English book, what are the 3rd verse's lyrics? or does it matter? Great song!

[cheechill]

@srawbrryblondi25 Toute ma vie est avec toi = All my life is with you. Moi j'attends, toi tu pars = Me I wait, you you leave.

[imgordonfreeman]

@srawbrryblondi25

All my life, is with you All my life, is with you Me I wait, You you go

[pennstpat]

@apatchofbluesky are you stupid or is this the first time you've ever heard this song? "Win should let Regine have this one completely"? Seriously? Listen to the album, they both sing on it. They perform every song exactly in the manner that they were intended to be performed. What would he be "letting her have" anyway? This band is all about the collective vision and abilities of its members and for some reason you think one of the lead singers should relinquish his role in the song? Stupid.

[apatchofbluesky]

@pennstpat Stupid because I don't agree with you? Nice. Letting Regine have more than one song to herself would hardly be her taking over the 'collective'. I just think this song would sound better with only her. Relax dude.

[soyousay18]

Will Butler REALLY annoys me.

He's like an irritating kid at a wedding party who won't stop running around the dancefloor.

[naticio]

@soyousay18 I TOTALLY AGREE with you....he never plays an instrument for REAL and he is like crazy all the time doing nothing...but the rest is OK

[imgordonfreeman]

@soyousay18 lol I agree

[kasra333]

Sarah Neufeld looks like such a butch with this hair

[bigcanadiano]

@kasra333 I agree. She looks fantastic.

[theforsakenpiggies]

@kasra333 No, she looks cute :D

[schizofrayd]

J ADORE. du très, très bon...

Pour la petite partie en français de régine,c'est drôle certains sites mettent(après"toute ma vie, être(ou est?) avec toi")

"toi tu m aimes" ...et d'autres: "moi, j'attends, toi tu pars" ...ce qui est clairement plus exact! ^^

[karatekween33]

@schizofrayd c'est "est", pas "être"

[theprimeform]

@BLURCEG In Rainbows came out in 08'.....

[mokacode]

overated band... maybe.....

[armatron44]

@mokacode its not, they are truely epic live

[mokacode]

@armatron44

Must be a question of generation...AF as well as" the Muse" are not my kind of candy at first listening...I've heard so many things in the last four decades that it doesn't sound that new to me....Am I aging that much?ahaha....

[bigcanadiano]

@mokacode haha very funny. . .

[mokacode]

@bigcanadiano funny?might be sometimes....rather cynical...sign of the times unfortunately...live and let live... ahaha....

[UGGO87]

Great song! My favorite of his new album, just great.

[debiedog1]

I've been in love with Debbie Harry for years but Regine is taking her place!!!

[bigcanadiano]

@debiedog1 the girls (yes beautiful women) of this band are just off the hook.

[TheThroney]

this song is awesome to jam along with

[Permafry42]

i can't see why this didn't get more views! this song is my second favourite on the new album other than sprawl 2

[BTVagrant]

This sounds like a Typical Epic Final Fantasy Boss Battle Music.

The strings are so awesome.

[Scullyist90]

It's like they're truly performing, truly singing, playing... from their hearts. It's really beautiful.

[weaut]

I bet I get a lot of thumbs down. I think that the studio version of this song is waaaay better. It's probably very difficult to play this song live but I miss some details and smoothness on this live version that I do hear on the studio version.

[TheThroney]

@weaut the guitar part is easy and not a hard song to sing.. its probably an easy song to play live.. minus the nerves from performing infront of a huge crowd or any crowd for that matter.. man i love this music

[jmills1215]

so vast.

[IndieMusicFan13]

Regine's vocals are spot on in this. Love it!!

[BlindBlannche]

who are the new losers playing

[fraklinthedog]

most understated song on the record

[ideagirlconsulting]

posting videos.. this one too :)

[23lFrench]

Lets all hope Coldplay get hurt in an accident and don't make any more records

[peacemonger1967]

come on, not liking a band is one thing...hoping they get hurt? its not like theyre Bon Jovi or something @23lFrench

[23lFrench]

@peacemonger1967 thats a fair point haha

[jennybuchler]

Who the fuck keeps disliking these?

[snugdbear]

@jennybuchler

Shouldn't lose any sleep over it, Jenny. Probably idiots who think JLS and Cheryl Cole are cutting edge.
