49tonio-I am now 52 and this is probably the best live performance I have ever seen on youtube. Like you, I have listened to all sorts of music, and have never heard a band quite like this one! I sometimes get chills from the whole second half of the song, I hope to god they come to western australia someday soon
"The arcade fire is just one of those things that make you cry, yet you can't get enough of it. how many things can you say will honestly make you cry, and you continuously to indulge in? If you say onions your only lying to yourself. We know better."
This song always shivers a chill down my spine no other song has sent down my spine in awhile.Yesterday I was listening to Neon Bible on my Ipod then suddenly I hear this song at like 2 o clock in the morning and im half asleep and such then I wake myself up because i hear this beautiful song then I played it over and over til I fell back asleep this song is fucking mind blowing I have never heard a song in my life as epic as this its as if at 4:30 you finally see the gates of heaven for the 1st
@BrianIsChill time .Im totally trippin out because of how mind boggled over hwo this song just amazes me, why cant more musical acts be as epic as this? : P peace bros
An amazing song by an amazing band. Saw them this past week. I had goose bumps and still do. I can only compare them to U2 on the Joshua Tree tour when it was obvious they were going to change the world. AF has the potential to do the same. They changed me.
unbelievable! I hate saying this over and over but, HOW DO THEY DO IT??? I've never been addicted to a band so much. Just got The Suburbs, and I know now, Arcade Fire will be a timeless band
In 20 years time, the world will be divided in two...those who saw Arcade Fire live and those who didn't. Mind you if any band in the world had the depth, integrity and spirit to play on forever; these guys do. Hope to see you in Europe in 2010 beautiful people!
I am now 48 years old so in my time i have listened to lots of music, bands come and go, great classical artists, megastars of pop etc...and i have to say in all that time i dont believe i have heard a song as good as this...it should be given an award of best song of the last 50 years...and the amazing thing is, this band have 5 songs just as good!!
this is the song which introduced me to this amazing band.. it was the first song i hear for them and still i find it very special among their great songs.. it's the best for smokin' weed too..hah
They are part of the reason I've decided I'm going to college in Canada. It's a beautiful place that produces some of the best bands, actresses, and people in general.
@patos10 You forgot 16. Anthemic! This thing just soars--it's almost up there with the final movement of Beethoven's 9th for just expressing joy through the human voice, although in this case the joy has a thread of sadness running through it that they are singing against.
Sarah is so cute with her short hair and shoulderless dress. Regine is just beautiful. I wish the kids that hang out in shopping malls driving the security guards crazy would take a hint from this band and try to do something productive.
Dude I know right! They just rock at EVERYTHING. So many people, so many areas to be covered, and they make it all seem so easy. This song sounds like it'd be icky live, especially without Win, but noooo.. True badassery.
these guys reminds me of tim burton and his dame helena, the stories (fantasy and beauty) on stage. it's class and freedom. art on stage. what montreal is famous for.
I love this band! their songs are great, but they are even better playing live, I saw them once at Montreal, I can't tell you how good it was, damn! amazing performers, keep the car going Arcade fire, you're awesome!
i rememberthe first time i heard their music was in Mike Mo Capaldi's part in Fully Flared (the skate video for those of you who do not know) and between his skateing and their music I was blown away. Their music is some of the best of this rather Indie kind. Much love.
saw them live w/ lcd soundsystem my first ever live concert when i was thirteen. they performed an encore of rebellion that lasted 14 minutes it was unbelievable.
and then they usually have a touring violinist/ violist. In this clip it's Owen Palett. And then on their last tour they had two touring horn players.
this band, performs more like a family than any other band. theres a connection when they play, everything, that they play has pretty much perfect tonality. and not to forget the Emotion that goes into their songs and performances! this set just blew me away, they are a very strong band indeed.
Régine is awesome. what the fuck she sings like hell. When I listen to Régine there's a total honesty coming out. She reallye plays with all of her passion like the rest of the band. This band isn't scared to stay what they reallye are.
she isn't singing out of tune; and in my opinion it's not charming or cute. It is impressive as an artistic endeavor - something you clearly are lacking in understanding.
