Yeah, it's a direct nod to those lyrics. But it mourns the loss of all the youth, optimism and art of the 60's "lay some flowers on the grave stone" instead of "wear the flowers in your hair".
And the next line describes what the world is like today "There's music on the station, but I'm just listening to cold wind whistling".
This shit is a requiem for utopia. It's beautiful.
A lot of history, simply. The two lead singers are married, and the male of that couple also has a brother in the band. That's less than half of the band, but you can get a basic idea of how close they probably are.
I knew this song not long ago. It was thanks a good friend whose musical taste is astonishing. A priceless recommendation, a stunning hymn, a wise combination of emotionally moving music and quiet motion. Bravo!
@wiiplaya25 The first half of the series were without a doubt better. The last half was too depressive, and Nate got seriously fucked up. I don't blame him though, as he coukd die any moment.
I got the box set so have just spent the last week watching it from start to end - I missed a few episodes when it was on TV so managed to catch up. Watched the last episode today and was bawling my eyes out lol
A brilliant show with some great music - this track being one of them.
I can watch the finale 1000 times and it gets me to tears everytime!! I LOVED SFU misss it alot. I have not purchased the box set because I am afraid I wont leave the house !!!
If this song doesn't give you chills down your spin, you're dead inside.
Also, it was played in the episode where Nate died. I still mourn the loss of Nate and Six Feet Under as a whole. What a show! It will never be replaced!
I agree!!!! LOVED that show. i think its for twisted people, not all my friends "got" it , they thought it was weird , I guess I must be also!! hee hee
alright I still haven't watched the entire Six Feet Under series, but my friend showed me the last few episodes and they were AMAZING, especially the finale. I'm on season 2 now.
@Juthan75 Awww man , holy f, i haven't watched all the episodes and now i know.... i'm already crying b/c i'm imagining this song playing along with that scene.
They released it on a pretty limited clear 7" vinyl EP. I got mine on eBay, not sure if there are any up at the moment, you should check it out. They also featured on the 'Six Feet Under, Vol. 2: Everything Ends' soundtrack. Good luck!
You can still find the 7" in good record shops in the US, it wasn't extremely limited or anything, no need for eBay. The soundtrack is a good buy too.
To think . . . For 11 years now I've been calling them Arcade Fire . . .

Just out of curiosity is the line,
"If you're going to San Francisco, lay some flowers on the grave stone"
a reference to Scott McKenzie's San Fransisco, in which he says,
"If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair"
??
Either way, stellar song as usual with these guys!
