love Into the wild... it's a beautiful story even though most thinks that McCandless was some dumb ass who just decided to go to Alaska there is so much more then that to the story it's just amazing
i really enjoy this song because i can connect to it in a way haha because my name is alex too and it makes me feel like i can do anything i want to do if i set my mind to it
Ya know, it's strange you put this up, because when I saw this movie I kept thinking that some Arcade Fire would go really great in this. I was thinking No Winter For a Year, though I cans see why Laika :p
he was a college student, about to go into harvard, but he decided to leave that phony life behind, for 2 years he traveled trough the us, backpacking and all, until he reached alaska, he lived a whole year or something in the wild, until he died of starvation, the movie's great (: it's really something everyone should watch, and the book written about him is great as well.
I'm Not sure. Some say it's ture and some say it isn't. But I think its true they are talking about Chris McCandless. Who Know... Somebody should ask Arcade Fire
The song is called Laika, which was the first animal sent into space on the Sputnik 2, I assume they felt that Alexander supertramp had a connection with Laika in that their story was somewhat simmilar.
@asalmon2112 Him and Laika the first dog in space who was never meant to come back. He was doomed to die like maybe Alexander was. They say maybe Chris McCandless was maybe a manic depressive who somehow had a death wish
This song is truly amazing, that movie is truly amazing, Vedder's soundtrack is truly amazing and Alexander Supertramp you are such an idol!

@bananiolo2 : Neil is my favorite. And I hardly listen to recent music, but this IS a great band. Don't quote artists as if they were on your side ..
