Arcade Fire - Month Of May

[bobdebicker]

Actually most of them are American. They're from Houston, and moved to Canada.

Canada's still cool though. 

[Nemova]

@bobdebicker Not most of them. Only WIn and Will. The rest of the band is Canadian.

[bobdebicker]

@Nemova

Oh, my bad. This song is awesome btw.

[Nemova]

@bobdebicker It's great, isn't it? One of their finest.

[MrBeanieKing]

it was so good that the distortion blew the description off the screen

[wheatcandle]

2:02 - 2:05 is what makes this song lyrically significant

[Cai0MGA]

Silence! Trying to listen an amazing song.

[NoahRodriguezShow]

It's a good feeling that a little kid probably watched these guys play this song live during the Grammys and it changed his life for the better forever.

[WorldChallenge]

I've labeled this on Wikipedia as power pop.

[HanSoloStarcraft]

@WorldChallenge grats man

[Nostalgios]

You know what else is fun? Taking youtube comments too seriously. x_x

[enzosses]

Don't you get it guys, generilazing is fun.

[MrVodaknockers5588]

@Nostalgios as an American I apologize for our crap music, I hope you understand the masses here are under mind control.

[malachde]

nd gettin back to AF suburbs , simply put, flawless

[Nostalgios]

I'm very certain the U.S.A. has much more to apologize for in this day and age with music.

[johnnyenchilada]

@Nostalgios Don't blame the countries for producing horrible bands/pop stars. Its the people's fault for listening to their music; and that's honestly what the music business comes down. Bieber wouldn't be popular if teenage girls around the world didn't listen to it, and make it a big deal. If no one cared about Arcade Fire from the beginning, they'd be nothing but a garage band somewhere and we wouldn't hear their glorious music. It isn' the fault of countries, rather people everywhere.

[jarretsvids669]

their just apologizing for Justin Bieber!!!!!!!

[The4thGuy]

@jarretsvids669 ...and apologizing for Nickelback...

[caesarsaysno]

@Xsubsin Just download it on iTunes

[RaNdOmDiPpY]

Fuck Canada.

[kasrkin45]

@RaNdOmDiPpY lol, u mad?

[RaNdOmDiPpY]

@kasrkin45 Naw :P

[caesarsaysno]

You have to see the short film Scenes From The Suburbs. It's insane. I love the scene where they play this song.

[Xsubsin]

@caesarsaysno Where is it? I have been looking everywhere for it

[ShiningItlis]

watch?v=pT68FS3YbQ4&ob=av3e

[Lullzki]

OMG been looking for this song for the past 2 hours lol. I heard it on the scenes from the suurbs trailer, so I started looking at this album and got distracted cos I started listening and stuff :p such an amazing album.

[09Rdog]

@SparklyyMegan so is arcade fire gay now? twat

[CoastersForever]

Rock and roll isn't dead. This song is proof. 

[nephilimaura]

much love for real rock and roll!

[animagus1]

Thankyou so much Canada, from a very grateful Australian!

[mellotron12]

This song reminds me a lot of "What Do I Get?" by the Buzzcocks. I think it may be in the same key.

[davidpar2]

it's amazing how varied the sounds are from track to track on this album. they run the gamut

[Kristinaheartsu]

Just goes to show how much Canadians and Americans rock, you know seeing as though they're not all from Canada....

[Nostalgios]

@Kristinaheartsu Just two Americans to my knowledge, the Butlers.

[Kristinaheartsu]

@Nostalgios That's right. They're still representing TX though Canada has treated them well.

[MattyMattThing]

Oh no life sucks oh no oh no

[redspade96]

i got this song at starbucks!

[TheScontessa]

It's a song about not conforming, finding your own voice, and forgetting the norm.

[thelostreligion]

What's this song about? What causes the "violent wind" that "blows the wires away"? In this song, does the people's singing make them exhale a wind strong enough keep someone from using modern technology's wires? Is this song about some aspects of sexuality able drive away "wired" modern technology? To me, the events in "Month of May" sound unlikely, as if they're probably allegorical.

[Simon0]

preparing for the arcade fire gig on wednesday by listening to all their songs! i hope they play this one, would be great to see live.

[administramation]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

That should be the description. This song is so FUN!

[spellthemagicword]

Fantastic! Many people think it's meaningless but it's all the opposite!

[mehfuckit]

ust Goes To Show How Much Us Canadians Rock.

[snaxlrod]

yea, but nickelback is from canada...

[TheFeelin89]

@snaxlrod so true man. lets just say that arcade fire rocks and nickelback sucks cocks.

[icebergfrostbidden]

@TheFeelin89 y is everyone on Nickelback's nutsac and AF IS pretty much unknown in the States? I've been needing a rock itch scratched and ppl kept feeding me Nickelback and what I call coochie rock sung by dudes. This shit is the ointment I needed to take me back to the Grunge era. :)

[rodhi7]

@TheFeelin89 nickelback dont sucks cocks. they sucks big cocks

[alfishipp]

@rodhi7 they suck any cocks the can get their hands on.

[thecrazyguy420]

[redspade96]

@snaxlrod so is metric.

[RomanLettore]

[ThievingBandit]

@SparklyyMegan Calling someone gay whilst you have the world "sparkly" in your use name? tisk tisk

[llama6ful]

[LucidEyes17]

@mehfuckit Except Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne, and I really hate Ryan Reynolds. But Wolf Parade and Arcade Fire are badass.

[AcerSwish]

@mehfuckit "[j]ust Goes To Show How Much Us Canadians Rock."

I'll give you Arcade Fire, but don't forget about Nickelback and Justin Bieber. It still ends up with you being pretty cool, though.

[themHTboyz]

@mehfuckit Us Canadians know how to fuck shit up!!!!

[QuiltedWizard]

@mehfuckit Win and Will are Americans. 

[shit6152]

@mehfuckit why is everybody so anti Canada?

[1234LETStartAwar]

@shit6152 have you heard nickleback, thats why people are so anti canada

[shit6152]

@1234LETStartAwar yeah I have but I didn't pay attention to the lyrics.

[MrBadacidradio]

@mehfuckit Only thing good bout your country is the nugs.

[TheLoneCone]

@MrBadacidradio whoa there! Canadians are awesome! Not quite sure what a nug is though...

[MrBadacidradio]

@TheLoneCone weed

[WhiteSugarFive]

@TheLoneCone A nug of weed. MrBdacidradio didn't explain it.

[angrybeaversfan]

@mehfuckit Why did you capitalize the first letter of every word? (Don't mean it in a rude way lol)

[theqwertykeys15]

@mehfuckit On the way to recover from Bieber >.>

[MODELKR]
