@DiniGabbyFan The queensberry version is more similar to the original Metric version. Personally, I find the Queensberry version sucks all the meaning out of it.
I Think This song is about how we live in a drug world, where doctors can't see what's wrong with us, they just give us a pill and thats exactly what they've been taught. these are the symptoms, that means this, this means i have to give you the red ones! "If the lonesome lows dont quite go away overnight, take the blue ones"
shes a not bad looking girl, but she lookes like a meth addict in this video....she looks terrible (in the begining). she gradually looks better thru the video.
If you knock somebody down who's at the front of a line, people will fall down like dominoes. And you better run the hell out of there, cuz it will be frightening. :)
these doctors these days just give any1 pills and people think that all there problems will go away right away....so vid is like all the everyday people who are just functioning, not living there, just pill poppers who laying down and takin it.....an it scares her because this could become her 1 day...so she runs away
I really love this whole album. I got it as a gift and listen to it all the time. Emily is beautiful....I have a big crush on her but shhh, don't tell anyone internet.
She is soo ugly and talentless. I cant believe that she has this many people trapped in their own ignorance just too make a profit...fuck her, fuck her family, fuck her friends, fuck the soulless corporation that mass produces this herpes infested anal excretion. I hope a fucking bus hits her so her mutant corpse can be scraped off the face of the earth... We've already got obama, that's the next step.
My favourite part is the chorus. I think this song is about depression...with the mention of pills and depressing feeling of this song. The dominos part represents how many other people you hurt when you're closed and depressed. Love Emily Haines!! Great Musique!
haines and sarah polly. . god damn. two of my favorite canadian gals. . . the video was sweet. it had a vibe reminiscent of a radiohead video. deep, a bit dark, but universally appealing
its funny, i get that exact same feeling whenever im in a department store - theres this bizarre, overwhelming sense of suffocation and death. lives leading nowhere but round the next corner, toward the next purchase. i cant even go to the mall, its too much.
that is exactly related to the comment I was about to make. I love the atmosphere of this video and there is definitely a weird feeling one can get by watching this video. I was wondering if anyone knew any other videos with this atmosphere. Music videos or movies.
Thank you Emily Haines/Last Gang Records for being a part of making Canadian music fresh again. I have a huge amount of respect for what the record label is trying to do for Canadian music (I am forever in debt).

I tend to like louder faster and heavier music yet I cant understand I why i like this more so than metric?
I guess there is just more depth to her less popular solo stuff. I find more intensity in "knives" and "Cut and half.."
