Metric -Twilight

[ryannorris1]

I'd have to say the best version of this song is the one they did for "the Rawside Of". Just her on piano and James on guitar; everyone should check that out.

[grandimundi2]

most excellent basslinery

[rixoff]

The ending is awesome! From 3:10 on is great, but the bonus at 3:42 really adds to the whole experience.

[2814inter]

bringing the rock.



[Murrison]

Every time I come back to this version, it's still the best one.

[BluesWhore]

NOOOOOOOO... no no no... the ONLY version is from the acoustic SPIN session... this version.. the original.. brain dead garbage.

[SerendipitousSean]

@BluesWhore Shuttit, hen!

They're all amazing!

[EpicFiction]

yayyy!

[twelvetimestwohours]

just one very very fucking awesome band!

[loeep]

wow , it's amazing how many versions a song can go through before it reaches the final edit....

Thank god these aren't the final versions of the songs on fantasies.

No offense to the band but if these had been the final versions, I would have hated that album.

[onespeed1664]

I think this version is way better than the album, this is my opinion.

[justsumdude899]

The version doesn't matter, but this was the song that made me discover Metric. And for the record, it was the album version.

[platypae333]

@justsumdude899 Same here that and Sick Muse. First song I ever heard by them.

[ArginAt]

Los amooo <3

[MaskimXul666]

También me gusta mas esta versión, aunque me cuesta creer que esta cantando en vivo

[rurocket]

sick



[DurrennV2]

I like this version better.

[MsKREZIP]

Emily says Alot funny

[fallenxstar101]

Personally I like this version better.

[10trait]

I rather love the uuuhuuhuuhuuhu than the ouuuhouuhouhouhou on the album

[manygate02]

Er, I don't think so!

[bradler88]

Album version has way more mood and a clear concept.

[hotcatmax123]

what i love about metric is that they sound awesome live not like them other bands

[MrMagneticPelican]

you know who sounds great live, The Shins.

[KaylasNotGrey]

Ahhh I love this version so much! They're both awesome but there's something about the older one that stands out to me :D

[Juicybruchea]

can you find out?? that would be SO appreciated!

[MariahAndTheCity]

i like both versions, but this version makes me want to dance.

[opsimathkaroshi]

I've changed my mind

[opsimathkaroshi]

This early version of TG rules,but only the witless would say it's superior to the Fantasies track.Go see them perform it live if you doubt me,then come back and discuss.

[t3hn00berer]

I completely disagree.

[shakeurheaditsempty]

does anybody know if theres a downloadable version of this song? this version?

[threeagainstfour]

this version annihalates the album version.

[manygate02]

And the more indie rock and less rap the better

[MrMagneticPelican]

I think rap gets a bad rep because of the radio. There's still good rappers and hip hop artists they're just harder to find.

[lovergurlz10001]

@MrMagneticPelican Lupe fiasco

[MrMagneticPelican]

great example, I'm a huge fan of his, another good one is the roots

[mojoscary]

i still like this version a bit more than the album version!

[Fliko]

I know the vocals are practically the same on both versions, but for whatever reason I feel her singing is much stronger in this version, or rather, more smoother.

[mmariissa]

@Fliko It was before Emily was doing coke, might be it. Still love her to pieces though.

[funkyphantom1]

I'm from uk and yes!

[flipangelsweetie]

love METRIC!!!

[acapunk]

Inspirational ! one of the best bands on the 00´s (thousands) wow

[AcademicDinosaur]

Love this!

I can't believe these people aren't like dancing or something... HAHA!

[djoegasvilli]

how the hell can they dance on this?

[okJAVS]

Im so torn, I love both of these versions so much, i dont think I could choose.

The CD one is a lot calmer and relaxing and I love the buildup.

The verse in this one is phenomenal.

It would of been cool if they somehow combined the two haha.

[sun17701]

wooo-oo-oo-ooo!!!!!!!

[adris64]

i think emily looks like a younger and unpolished version of madonna

[fabfishers]

@adris64...different music genre and better voice!

[fabfishers]

@adris64 different genre and better voice!!

[TheLilithEve]

This is perfect :)

[thaeasy]

both versions are great, i prefer the album one, but in this one i looooove when emily does the "wooo-oo-oo-oo" instead of the synth, is much cuter.

[PlanetTelex2]

3:36 yeah dudes, im just going to take this guitar here, k? thanks, see ya!

[fgeera]

voor de aandachtige kijker

[rawrr1000]

lol. XD

[MonsterHospitaI]

I like this version much better...

[kaykimmango]

actually this one's way faster...I just like the synth in this one too...

[kaykimmango]

gosh, I like both versions...don't make me pick don't make me pick!!!

[Neavers]

Yeah. Both awesome.

[dannycantwait]

i just want to jump into my screen and grab emily by her keyboard.

[PrettyJolee]

This is gorgeous

[evanisb0ss]

I like the album version better. :/

[firefrostpeacemaker]

album version is not bad but this version is WAY BETTER

[exhibition]

Does anyone know how to get this version of Twilight and all the songs played at this 'concert' as an mp3 file?? I like the CD version but I like this version as well, they're so different.

[reraise]

i wish they had this version on the album...the guitar is just too good...especially after the first chorus when jimmy jumps right back into it...anybody wanna tab this?? freddie should have been on the new album too...

[dubarnik]

I much prefer the version on Fantasies. An even better version is the acoustic one that Spin Magazine posted to youtube.

[miguel46580]

they so ruined this song on their album..they should have kept it at this version

its the only mistake I know Metric made..and its an opinion-mistake :)

but either way..anyone agree?

[easylove87]

i disagree. this song sound unfocused and disjointed. sonically, its nothing like the rest of the album, which is diverse, but coherent.

the album version boils it down to essentials, and streamlines all of the good ideas. its no mistake that several reviewers have called it one of the best songs in their repertoire, let alone the album.

[miguel46580]

the "reviewers" might have said that,but it seems like to me that many every-average people seem to think this one is better.

It's just everyone's opinion so it's no big deal. They should re-release fantasies and add bonus tracks or something and include this "live" version in it.

[easylove87]

many "every-average" (i assume you meant everyday average) people don't really know how to think critically about art.

"reviewers" get the jobs they get for proving that they do.

[Sonias2390]

it's hard to compare the two... it's like two different songs ... it's really cool to see how music is so versatile and go in any different direction...

I feel that this version of the song is trying to be something

where the album version is really pure, and not at all forced

both good though

[RJTheDestroyer21]

I don't know, I think I prefer the slower album version over this one to be honest.

[Homeslice83]

This version is way better than the album version! I don't like the album version AT ALL....what a shame.

[flow49]

wow they really changed this song

[choccolatluv]

i actually like this version a lot better than the official one

[youarejustwaytocool]

this version is definately a million times better.

[TheRedScareIsAlive]

Why the hell di d Myspace cram a whole bunch of fucking preppy douches and fucking skating assholes together for this performance?

They don't appreciate it at all!!!

[choccolatluv]

my theory is that they got together a whole bunch of ppl that dun like metric and paid them to sit there and listen to them cuz if they were actual metric fans they wud have like... attacked metric =P

[HeadCrab007]

meth is a terrible drug

[K0011]

LOL

[MinnieMouse117]

I like this version MUCH MORE than the album version

[miguel46580]

fer ser!!no competition!its amazing how they did this live...

[bonedragonfilms]

me too, I hope they release an alternate version, but i doubt it :(

[charalinsky]

i like album version too... both are cool.

[SweetestXKiss12]

Agreed.

[Murrison]

this version is ten billion times better than the album version

[miguel46580]

thats what I said....exactly :D

[Murrison]

Maybe I would have liked the album version if I hadn't heard this one..but too late..this one leaves the other one in the dust

[miguel46580]

lmao,so true!thats why I got used to this one first...and now....it makes the other one sound like...not that good. I cant believe they sound THIS good live!!:)

[BenjaminBaer]

Isn't The name of the song Twilight Galaxies,

[FA7]

I JUST tabbed the bass for this song on UG! I'm so proud!

[ThornellianKingdom]

I can't wait for their new album.

and I'm watching for their tour dates when they release them for "Fantasies" Because I am SO seeing them.

Theyve been my favorite band since 2006 and always will be! =]

[heteindvanbegin]

I REALLY HOPE they include both this version of the song and the other because I love them both, but it would break my heart if I can't have both. Lol, god I love Metric... words cannot explain.

[Gnarvazhog]

I just discovered this band.. i love them!

[yamahasixstring]

Canadians make the best music these days... Off to Toronto, tape my shows and feed my pets.

[Kerry23232323]

every time I watch this I'm confused for the first five seconds. I'm like no you're Emily Haines, not Katherine from Virginia!

[SouthPurp]

this is awesome!

[unityrover]

I never knew they released an album last year.

[okJAVS]

It wasnt really like an album, it was just a live set and dvd

[bonafidegitterbug]

I love how she seemed worried that the mystique would be losty for fans after seeing them preform in this environment but I think beian able to see them like this only adds to the mystique; the whole "so close yet so far away" factor.

[bonafidegitterbug]

*lost not losty

*being,not beian.... my keyboard is totally messed lol

[inevergetit]

Egh...if I were in a popular band I would hate to do something like this.

[calebbbuh]

i don't think they're too concerned about how popular they are, and they seem to be enjoying it

[xXLuckyxLoveXx]

Emily is adrable, Love her! Awesome voice!!!

[kmburc]

Haha, I'm Katherine (from Virginia). I always feel like an idiot for writing "A LOT" when Emily stresses it. Sweeeet.

[laurentmetric]

i think its hilarious! hahaha

[calebbbuh]

i think she was just surprised that there was so many devoted fans maybe :)

but it's the truth, theres A LOT. haha

[dustycool66]

seeing them this december!

can't fucking wait.

[Pansy]

Emily is so cute (:

[stevent31]

[lorenzyl]

[Digity26]

Best song on the new album IMO.
