@TheFireGrows When I first herd that line. It hit real hard too.

[TheLerbear]

@TheFireGrows Dude, yeah.

[johnfelix539]

How come YouTube lets you skip advertisements after five seconds but that stupid Obama one plays all the way through.

[BriteNiteProductions]

@johnfelix539 Because some of them are

1.) Longer than others

and

2.) Some people pay more money to have their ads played through all the way.

At least, that's what I gather. Don't quote me on this.

[aznsoulja1995]

@johnfelix539 it's okay to masturbate

[jbtown211]

[dafrozentundra12]

[subby7866]

@asskandy5 Yeah the tempo and singing sound different to me

[asskandy5]

@subby7866 yeah the live one is better

[oneandonly2lonely]

"If I was scared I would, If I was cured you know I would, if I was yours but Im not"

Does anyone else think that this is a sign of social anxiety? The whole song hits close to home for me. Love it! Love it! Love them all! Thanks arcade fire!

[TheSpookEye]

@oneandonly2lonely It's If I was pure, not cured, no mean to offend, it's just so you know :)

[StonerAngels16]

If liking arcade fire means i am a hipster douche bag,then i am glad to be one.

[XN1ghtwalk3rX]

These skyrim jokes are overwhelming now. The first few were funny, but people need to stop beating a dead horse and posting them on every video.

Music videos are there to be enjoyed, whether it be because you connect with the message they convey or it just sounds good. If your goal is to be self serving by trying to get thumbs up for an overused joke, you need to get out.

[BrooklyntoBrixton]

SKINS!!

[Alex21232]

I used to be a hipster but then I took an arrow to the knee... ----->

[Alex21232]

I used to hate this song, then I took an arrow to the knee...

[musicstarbeach5]

this song is so asdfghjkl <3

[iamsorrycoroline]

i love arcade fire i have palladia on my tv so i am always watching the unplugged episodes the festivals they are great on the album and in live shows i love the suburbs its my fav song it makes me cry though!

[nnnpp222]

No interest in the lame-ass Ron Paul ad @the beginning,but great song.

[Luis11717]

Just became a fan, have been wanting to get into AF since like 2 years ago when my girlfriend presented me to them. But just today I actually started listening, I regret spending the last 2 years without them.

[JippysProfoundings]

im proud to know arcade fire since 7nth grade summer. im in ninth now ;)

[Glaceo]

Absolutely epic.

Man.. Arcade Fire, just wow. (Y)

[alanzeca]

fantastic ... epic

[SaberTanker22]

Arcade fire fan for 2 years now still loving the beat they bring to music.

[elvaelvirababe]

oh thank god for this song. Just every note fills my heart, I feel at peace.

[Ullock100]

FUCK YOU EXPEDIA!!

[Simon0]

this was so awesome when i heard it live.. even better than the albumn version.

[halfsizedlife]

@Simon0 When did you see them live????? i just got into them and i would loooooove to see them perform this album!

[Simon0]

@halfsizedlife last December in London O2 arena

[Simon0]

@halfsizedlife by the way if you havent already.. listen to funeral.. in my opinion its their best albumn.

[halfsizedlife]

@Simon0 have. its epic

[francolinblue]

NOW I'M READY TO START...this homework :/

[therealloni]

@francolinblue Im not.. /:

[MrBadacidradio]

@francolinblue only thing that gets me too do it...

[TheIgothacked]

@francolinblue Finals ar so much fun :D

[KEVINATORTUREY]

skins brought me here

[TheRealgoodlike]

@KEVINATORTUREY what episode?

[KEVINATORTUREY]

@TheRealgoodlike THE TRAILER OF THE SEASON 5

[mj462188]

This song is amazing, but the full album version is even better. The single cuts off the beginning and end of the song. 

[amypoes]

i love this song <3 very nice .. 

[qazwsxedc641]

Why the fuck does there have to be an ad? YouTube you have once again outdone yourself.

[jackieodonald13]

@qazwsxedc641 There has to be an ad because the you tube people need to make money, so they can keep entertaining ass holes like you who complain about one ad.

[qazwsxedc641]

@jackieodonald13 You piece of shit, they don't have to do ads on little videos like this. This isn't going to make any money for them, the demand is so small for this video that few will even watch it.

[cita169]

:)

[leneontigre]

how ironic, I clicked on this video, and it won't start.

[Simon0]

@leneontigre maybe it hasnt started yet.. but i am pretty sure its.. READY TO START! hehehe.

[ChattownBatman]

if they never won that grammy I would have never heard of them...until I went to Bonnaroo, How mainstream am I!!!

[45cRx45]

I just started learning Bass and this is the first song I can play along to for the whole song!! Luvet!!

[anilomd]

Quite, effing brilliant.

[anilomd]

Effing brilliant.

[Simon0]

This was fudging awesome when i saw it live. They opened with this song.

[HeyaHoney]

I hate fucking 'hipsters' that instantly dislike a band as soon as they become popular. Arcade Fire have, and always will make good music.

[anilomd]

@HeyaHoney I agree. All the hipsters need to find the nearest lemming and follow the way over the nearest cliff.

[PeacePieDanny]

You Know its a GREAT band when you Can't dislike any of their songsXD

[CJxTallnez97]

i'm so glad that indie bands like this are still indie, if they go mainstream i will be sad

[babyjaay123]

im gay

[qazwsxedc641]

@babyjaay123 Yeah, I can tell you are a fucking faggot

[immyissoawesomelike]

I wanted to watch this because it's Matt Smiths favourite song, and I'm really glad I have! it's awesome.

[IWantMyNayNay]

Thank god for the Grammy's, because they brought me to Arcade Fire.

[areyouanoobster]

SO AWESOME



[ToolsnFire]

This sounds so average/typical through the years. Come on people. Blah

[ThisisTedWells]

One of the most deserved Grammy's ever given

[JonnyCashmore]

I love Arcade Fire........I HATE this song.

[carley5k]

<3

[jakec14]

"But I would rather be alone than pretend I feel alright." -/3

[HottMexICan94]

<333

[deviousxen]

If I were hipster enough to not like Arcade Fire anymore, I would not appreciate the evolution of a bands music...I still think Neon Bible will always strike a deeper chord with me, but this album is still sick, now that I've finally gotten around to it. Its probably because to this day, Neon Bible doesn't even seem old.

[i21GREY]

For Every one person that dislike this song 43 others LOVE IT!!!!!

[holdenhatesphonies]

I loved Spike Jonze's film Scenes From The Suburbs based on this album. It's amazing! If you haven't seen it you should check it out, the whole album plays throughout the movie (it's a short film)

[SuperMEanderthal]

Must see in concert. Maybe the best i've ever been to.

[XGBJM]

στις πόσες φορές "repeat" καίγεται ο εγκέφαλος;;ΔΕΝ ΤΟ ΧΟΡΤΑΙΝΩ ΛΕΜΕ!!!

[catgalparsoro]

@XGBJM wow!! a greek fan of a montreal band! (i didn't understand a word of what you wrote, though, but "repeat" was a good clue ;))

[XGBJM]

@catgalparsoro you understood though that these "bizzare" letters are actually Greek!!Well done!!My comment was something like this: "How many times does a person have to listen to this tune to the "repeat mode" until his brains start burning out??I JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF IT!!" ;-)

[catgalparsoro]

@XGBJM ahahah, well, i've been to greece once, and our guide had tried to teach us the greek alphabet. but still, not recognizing that this is greek clearly is a lack of cultural knowledge. aaaand, i agree, this song is amazing :D

[hystericalfuture]

That bass line is sick. Love it!

[wheatcandle]

Arcade Fire, then the rest..used to feel this way about radiohead..

[maclasch]

@MarshaFerns Why don't you check out their first two albums? Much better. They are awesome. This album just isn't their best.

[TheMoviedude2012]

This song totally rules!

[LION0410]

THERE LIVE SHOWS ARE SICKKK!!!!! PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST LIVE ACTS IVE SEEN

[Brandofolks]

i absolutely love this song...are there any other songs by Arcade Fire that are like this one?

[Denwoop]

Can I have the mp3 of this track ? Sure if it's possible

[cookiesrgood4thesoul]

@Denwoop use youtube mp3 converter, its so easy! all u need is the link for the video

[Denwoop]

@cookiesrgood4thesoul I finally downloaded the entiere album, much better than converter which gives u bad quality on tracks ;)

[45cRx45]

@Denwoop ... evern easier way is goto zamzar dot com and bookmark the zamzar web browser button from the tools page.

[6t6d6]

Just yesterday I heard this. First song of AF I've listened to and I can't stop bloody listening to it.

[cowboytonydee]

WHY DO I WANT TO JUMP ALL OVER WHILE LISTENING TO THIS SONG??

[johnnyenchilada]

I don't care how mainstream Arcade Fire ever becomes, as long as they keep making music like this, I'll be a fan.

[StokeCityFC44]

@johnnyenchilada completely true, being mainstream only becomes a bad thing when it compromises the quality of music you produce

[whtsox451]

@johnnyenchilada I don't get why ppl are getting hung up on a band becoming "mainstream"...if they've become mainstream its because they're good and ppl enjoy their music. Selling out and becoming "mainstream" is a thing of the 90's punk/rock past...now its about creating the best sounding and best quality music that ppl can share and reach ppl who otherwise would never no about them...nxt time someone says "there mainstream, or sold out" all i have to say is bullshit

[SummerCircus91]

@johnnyenchilada well ofcourse

[BasementBeginnings]

@johnnyenchilada All bands were indie at some point, you know.

[lemans24fan]

@johnnyenchilada i heard before that win plans on retiring around 2020

[C0N0RJ3NKINZ]

Well back in my day a car cost a nickel

[Mandymoo2254]

Bought this album, best purchase ever. <3

[jrdy29]

8 people werent ready.

[UltimateSaturdaysFan]

my dad went to see these on friday and told me to listen to them, glad I did!:)

[MichaelLawlorRojas]

@UltimateSaturdaysFan Coolest dad ever :P

[Graldaddy]

I love this song, I love this group. Gogogo Montreal

[EnigmaInDisguise]

Is there anyone else getting really sick of the fact that people want thumbs up???? The funny thing is, it's just now getting popular, but the thumbs up has been there forever.

Our generation is so perceptive, aren't we?

[albertoxgomez]

@EnigmaInDisguise back in my day there was no such thing as thumbs up or down on youtube... we just had flame wars and we liked it!

[kennedkint]



[TheRifles012]

Thumbs up if! no.

I personally searched for "Arcade fire - Ready to start", damn you people with the thumbs up comments, you aint getting a medal for it!

[conker3500]

tight shit

[KoiChannel]

look up "while the city sleeps - back when we knew", same kind of colourful soundscapes and big crescendos!

[richjwoods88]

i got here on my own... and i have loved this song ever since.

[SonarStarsofLight]

GO ARCADE FIRE!! Also, what the hell is a "skins"?

[DrCrazyKA]

@SonarStarsofLight an english t.v series

[marcosAKAshorty2895]

@SonarStarsofLight Its a TV show from the UK and it has 5 seasons. There was a US version this year with 1 season but it wasn't as good and there will not be anymore seasons.

[Hsmfan741]

All I have to say is that I love this band & the people who don't are stupid for not loving this and have no taste In music at all .

[MegaYousir]

this whole album is a freaking masterpiece, if i had a hat I'd take it off

[StefyAwesome1]

Favortite Arcade Fire song <3 :)

[ItchyNose]

yo honestly it bothers me that people actually took the time to hit the "dislike" button.

[Cubi3D]

It's so a great song^^. hehe... :D

[Annette7174]

All of the alternative lovers unite!!!!!!!!

[HeshMask]

reminds me of a song by smashing pumpkins-1979

[d45368]

first steve nash, then drake, now arcade fire, canada, youre one epic country.

[rishabisgood]

Dear Canada,

We would like to thank you for sending us Arcade Fire!

However, uhm, would you please take that kid Justin Bieber back?

Thanks.

Sincerely America.

[calvinandhobbes2004]

@rishabisgood WOW, really original! Haven't heard that one before! Think before stealing from Facebook pages. derp.

[JordanWalsh0]

Question.

In general how do you American's (or people from other places) feel about us Canadians?

Its just i always wanted to know

[Nombombs]

@JordanWalsh0

i like canadians but i cant say all americans do.

i don"t know why.

[Brutusness]

@JordanWalsh0 yeah i always did wonder how americans liked us, i like them.

[NRRRDLemur14]

@JordanWalsh0 I like Canadians in personality, but I hate their politics. Americans I hate for the most part, despite being an American myself, and I also hate the American government. Don't get me started on the British.

[JordanWalsh0]

@NRRRDLemur14 Yeah, a lot of Canadians hate Canadian politics as well.

[306010347]

@NRRRDLemur14 The world is pure crap because people hate so much, just like you dude.

[NRRRDLemur14]

@306010347 I have nothing to say to you, as you're just judging me and I have much, much better list of things to waste my time upon. You're not even upon the bottom of that list.

[306010347]

@NRRRDLemur14 Who is judging you? I was not even expecting you to comment back, go ahead with your hateful way of life, that's it hater. lol just kidding. BYE.

[306010347]

@NRRRDLemur14  Hey, my girlfriend is on the phone and she wants to know if you hate the smurfs too.

[NRRRDLemur14]

@306010347 I do. I hat dem dur nigguhz and dat dur smurfs and dem mejicanoez and i hat dem italunz. I hat ereting, brah. I evn hat muhself cuz i run out stuff 2 hat, durrrr.

[JordanWalsh0]

@motherdestiny

Your welcome.

Sincerely, Canada

[rishabisgood]

My favorite part is 4:16

damn this song gives me goosebumps, pumps me uuup, i could take the world over with this shit playing
