    every performance is like they got together before it and said "ok, guys, let's do our best performance ever". It's like they never get tired of doing this, true love and dedication

    Half of the people that use the word "over-rated" don't know the exact definition of the word. Arcade Fire are quite under-rated in a way.

    I just knew that they must've made a Letterman appearance! My kids (6 & 4-1/2) absolutely love this song! and call it "the song that makes us go crazy" because when I put it on, they go running around laps all over the house. Their enjoyment of this song captures what Arcade Fire have on this album, purely genius melodies with perfectly balanced instrumentations and vocals with raw emotion! One of the best songs ever recorded, though not be recognized by radio, at least in this generation.

    Best experience is when you see it live instead of behind the TV. Television cannot capture the rawness of their performences. Glad to say I saw them twice and had the opportunity to meet Win & Co after one of the Montreal shows years ago when they played in the crowd for their encore.

    Hey everyone... so glad you enjoyed this upload!!
    when I saw this on Letterman originaly it gave me chills and I knew I had to get it and post it. I actually even EQed the audio a little as well.
    Please buy the new album "Neon Bible" and if you don't have "Funeral" go back and buy that as well (
    It was an instant classic for me and will go sdown in my top 10-20 albums of ALL time).
    peace..

    My introduction to Arcade Fire was when U2 would play Wake Up before they came out on stage during the 2005 How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb tour....I became hooked and still remember the goosebumps hitting the moment I heard it hit when we saw U2 in Chicago 2005

    What I love the most in Arcade Fire is their personality... and that shows not only in the nostalgic feeling behind their music, but also in their clothes, their attitude, their energy. They seem to have a reminiscence of gothic in them, but it goes beyond that... To me, this makes them one of the very best bands to appear since 2000.

    @jujumui The lead singer is Win Butler and the drum playing guy next to him is actually his younger brother, William Butler. You're right, William is a really intense member of the group. You should see him on guitar and keyboard. Watch some of their more recent performances of "Wake Up" and "Keep the Car Running" and you'll see just how intense he can be!

    I got to see Arcade fire live in concert in 2006. One of those huge festivals with 50 bands. At the time I was not a fan of theirs. So, seeing them live, I did not appreciate their music. It was not until after that I bought their music, when I could understand it. I wish I did before the concert. Because I could remember the experience better. I LOVE this song, they played it. But I barely remember.
