While this doesn't beat the original, it sure does it justice. This was a song suited for a DFA touch. The same fast tempo and lyrics could be on a DFA1979 album. In fact, much of Silent Alarm could have been pulled off by DFA in my opinion.
@MashMarshall69 DFA1979 are actually Canadian. Get your shit straight. Not to mention that many people believe this version is better than the original.
@MashMarshall69 Scotland, England, same thing. Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, same thing. The worst part is you aren't the only person from England as ignorant as this, I've heard the same thing a million times before when I was in England.
@88carlos88 Do you not understand the point I was making? Are you that fucking dim? I was saying those places are the same because I know it pisses people off from the UK when people say that because to people in the UK, those places are not the same thing. My point being that when people from the UK refer to Canada and America as the same thing, it makes us feel the exact same way. Try to think a little before you come off as an asshole, because now you just look like a stupid asshole.
@88carlos88 Dude you clearly are a 'stupid asshole' (judging by how you only just managed to work the Caps Lock button). I'm British & even I got what @schmonkey was alluding to, it was a fair comment. Also, Due South... pretty damn good show...
@robbason fuck you. i also "managed" to bust over your mums face too. its rare that anyone in England confuses Canada with America. and i'm very fucking sorry i couldn't notice the subtle nuances with what schmonkey said over the internet, but YOU could. maybe i should reach up my "stupid asshole" and shit out a fucking medal for you..prick. and due south was straight filler tv. wasn't captivating in any sense.
@88carlos88 Your subtle nuances are leading me to believe you're not really that sorry. I wouldnt suggest going through the hassle of reaching up your 'stupid asshole' AND shitting out a medal, seems a little messy. I appreciate the effort though.
i heard this remix like 2 years, it's pretty awesome. Someone offer sebastien grainger a ton of money to get dfa back together please! They were so good :(
I do like this version a lot, i like there take on it, but it's nowhere close to the original, and even if you like this version better you still have to give kudos to bloc party, they wrote the song.
Loved this album, loved Silent Alarm. This is my favorite track from the remix, depends on the day if I listen to one or the other. Everyone chill and rock the fuck out.
man i remember the days me and my dad blazing and just sitting in his car listening to this whole CD, when do you ever think youll have a chance to blaze with your dad you cant pass that down
blaze wit da buds bong_smoka_1969 red_eye_jedi cuz! i could pass on smoking pot. can turn individuals into mindless drones. huh huh huh lets make a pipe out of an apple huh huh huh.
@tiptoebitch You are a fucking dumbass. You can replace Russel with synthesizer.. you can't replace Matt with a shitty electric kit and a mediocre drummer.
@lolh4x i hope u know that dfa 1979 came up with it first right? so ur the fucking dumbass and who says the drums are electric and the drummer mediocre can you even get on a drum set and make some decent beats? so how are u gonna talk shit on ppl rockin concerts and ur some kid on youtube talkin shit?

I don't appreciate this song
it has lost the intention of the original
people on here believe it is better because they came here to listen to it, evidently.
opinions on music are subjective, I know. I just think Bloc Party should be untouched.
