Heard this song on KDVS 90.3 while driving and it was just one of those perfectly timed moments I like to call "movie soundtrack" moments. The driving speed, the volume level, the time and color of the day, the blur of what's been past on the drive, the head space, the smells, the thoughts and emotions, the vibe the universe was on that very second.. with just me.. and just like that- an ordinary moment with ordinary being. This ..is how memories are made
Very lovely descriptives. I sometimes try to comprehend the cumulative human experiences that are occurring simultaneously at any one second; but I tend to get overwhelmed....
Kellie Gray hiiii yeaaaah! I like their song since it's like movie soundtracks 💝 there are many playlist on spotify that has this genre u might wanna check
This song in particular really has her Cape Breton accent showing. I've heard these guys' music before but honestly didn't know much about their background. Turns out the singer is the daughter of one of the Rankin Family members. They were HUGE back in the 90s. And the chorus maaarry me aaaarchie is just Rankin Family af. edit: Molly is John Morris Rankin's (RIP) daughter. TIL.
My husband and I walked down the aisle to this song. As soon as we heard its opening line “you expressed explicitly your contempt for matrimony” we just knew. We were always both so adamantly opposed to marriage when we were in our 20s. Flush with the arrogance and certainty of youth. The coy, tongue in cheek tone of the song struck a cord.
I didn't know these people until 4 hours ago, and now, fortuitously, I shall go and see them live in Auckland in a few weeks. As a 50-year old, it warms the cockles to see younger folk do baggier clothes and jangly guitars so well.
It’s insane. My best friend introduced me to just this song 1 and a half years ago. I loved it but I forgot about it. Nearly a year later, they were having a concert in my city and I decided to go for the first concert of my life to their band, which kind of made me listen to all 3 of their albums. And wow. This is one of the best modern bands I have heard. I hope you have a similar experience
@@solorollo9756 Very very cool, thanks. Obviously word got out because there was a smattering of other oldies there too. I propped up a wall near the back with some soothing whiskies and felt happily transported to a kind of neo-90s bliss-scape.
@@ChuckieMcHaggis It's wild to see the nineties coming back so strongly. As a milennial it's funny to see everyone I know watching Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Star Trek:DS9, and singing along to They Might Be Giants, as if we weren't all babies when this stuff was actually in the public consciousness. It's good to know the generation we were born into.
Just when you think every possible great song has already been written... you discover this. Music is one of the last gifts you'll have when you get old and your body starts to give out...
I recently attended my first Alvvays concert and I couldn't stop crying thinking of how 10 years have passed and this song is still very present in my life
Literally have listened to this one song for about 5 or more years and recently started listening to more of their songs. Ended up looking their tours up and they're coming to Pensacola November 9th 😊 I live in pensacola lolololo so stoked!!!
I am gonna be like you in 4 years. First heard their songs like 26 months ago, only really liked this one. Figured they were having a concert and my best friend really forced me to go (on my own cause they don’t live here) to my first ever concert at Alvvays. I went to it (like 2 weeks before my finals lmao) and it was the first concert of my life and I’m so grateful and privileged for this expiercence. I think in 5-10 years when I go for another one of their concerts I’ll feel that way for sure

It's better to listen when you are approaching summer, dreaming of scenes of: "Sailing out in the Atlantic." Even tough you are Turkish and dreaming of summer vacation house harbouring mediterranean and your close friends and relationships over there.

I tend to like heavy metal, hard rock, ECT. But I saw Alvvays at a festival recently. Never heard of them before. The song came on and the crowd went nuts so I thought "this must be their big song". Ever since then this song has been stuck in my head. You know you have a great song when it reaches across to other genre lovers.
Here we are 8 years later and these guys are still putting out awesome music. The years 2014 and 2015 were really horrible for me and this album helped me get through some tough times.
Blue Rev is my favourite of album of all time. The right album at the right time, but dislodging things like MBV Loveless, Sugar's Copper Blue, Underworld's Dubnobass... it's back to back insanely good and yeah. For me 2022 into 2023 were shocking and Blue Rev got me through
As someone who was in my (late) teens in the 90's I say hells yeah. When I first heard it I thought it was a 90's song that I had somehow missed. It was as if Kristin Hersh and the Jesus and Mary Chain made a secret recording.

This song came out so many years ago. I just discovered this song last week (December 2021) when I was listening to Sirius XM channel 35. I love this song. I’m gonna check all of this band’s music
Please do! This entire album and their 2nd one _Antisocialites_ are masterpieces! And if you liked them, their 3RD new album _Blue Rev_ is coming out in October! They’ve even released a single from it! It’s called “Pharmacist”! Check it out!
...did you make it to 5 years? I had a 5 year "starter marriage" before my grown-up marriage. I think I needed the starter marriage for growth before I could have a mature marriage...anyways, good luck to you. I wish you success...
Celebrated our 40th with takeout! Her dad liked me because I started paying off her student loans even b4 we got married. Of course, it was like $35/ month back then. 😀
This one girl was absolutely crazy over me. I was at the time too, i was on a trip in hawaii staring at the sunset and she sent me this song, one of the happiest moments in my life was hearing this song knowing she had nothing but love in her mind when she sent it. The sunset and all these feelings im processing while hearing this amazing song, I’ll never forget it.
This is one of the very few mainstream contemporary songs out there that demonstrates undeniable quality. Well written, produced and sung. Graceful middle eight. Lovely melody. Great guitar sound.
While I live in the US, land of where shitty mainstream music come from which every one of them are number 1 on billboards chart, seriously which song is actually number 1 on billboards chart, who cares they're bunch of crap
I'm going to go through my favourite canadian band list really quick: Stars Matthew Good The Weakerthans Broken Social Scene Tragically Hip U.S.S. Dan Mangan ...God I love Canada
This song was randomly playing once in highschool when me and my friends were all sitting out in the stars on a blanket sharing special memories and stories and it will forever be special to me.
My new favourite song. Love the catchy tune, the mix, the distorted guitars with feedback(particularly in the second verse) , the jangly guitars, and the lyrics are just beautiful. Pure Genius! Wonderful vossonation!
The visuals in this song remind me of my childhood. Goofing around and having fun, around the water. Now even the opening guitar line sounds like youth to me. And that wishful dreamy echo on the vocals. :)
Just discovered this song and band- I have now listened to their first 2 studio albums....I am absolutely blown away with this band. Every single song is so creative and has something different- the melodies are so well crafted, and the soundscapes this band creates are so ethereal and pretty. Absolutely incredible. For this song in particular, this has got to be one of the best songs of all time.
The greatest pop band of the last decade. Over and over again this band proves themselves to be capable of writing airy gems that have lyrical gravity. Molly is nailing it.
a cool collection I really like the art direction in these videos! They all just seem so modern and cutting edge! It kind of gives me the same feeling that I got when the music videos for Blue Da Ba Dee and With Arms Wide Open came out.
Never heard of this band until 3 days ago when they opened for The Decemberists at The Ryman in Nashville....... Now I can't get their sound out of my head. Especially this one and Adult Diversion....... Great band, sky's the limit! Good luck guys!😊😊
I haven’t heard this song in years, and now I’m crying as my mind ties it to the last two. We never listened to this song together, but hearing this now I can only think of her. I broke up with her months ago, and did so because I knew it was best for me and believed it was best for her. I still believe this, and yet the pain seems no less for being the one who chose to leave. Although I know she cannot see it now, I believe a happiness awaits her that is far greater than what I could give. Such a gentle soul deserves no less, and I pray she finds it soon. Love you still, Samara.
Mr Archie Listen to Redbone or Me and Your Mama by Gambino. It will make you realize that good music is there in every generation, it's just hard to find
me and my girl broke up abt 6 months ago... we were together for 8 years, but were friends since we were like 12.... this sound found me and i was like damn.. is this how she felt? we split up cuz she wanted to get married and have kids and i didnt... this song hits me right in the fucking heart my guy. a classic
my dog recently passed away,his name was archie,this has always been his song and it was the last song he heard before we put him to sleep.i’ll always remember him while hearing this amazing song 💗
That's a beautiful and very touching post, I love my own dog Dougal so much, I'm really sorry for the loss of your dear companion and family member, RIP Archie
LOVE IT! LOVE THEM! I heard about them on the radio (a radio that usually plays mainstream songs at that), gotta give props for the radio station for being so open and sharing such good music!
Like 7-8 years ago I always listened this song on my work commute, hoping to find my ''Archie'' -And I did! My now wife, is perfect in every way, she's everything I could've dared to hope. ''Hey, hey, marry me, Archie!'' Popped often in my head whenever I thought about proposing her and being married to her. After wonderful 6 years she told me she's not happy anymore, so I'm back here listening Alvvays and reminiscing, trying to hold it together.
Okay but just so you know your archie used to be a homosexual (nothing wrong with that) yeah, he'd make any guy happy by getting down on his knees for a quick $20...😏 He was also a coke addict 😐
This song as well as the video hit me with such a high dose of Nostalgia that it's literally the most painful thing I ever experienced while being so beautiful at the same time...
A-R-C-H-I-E I love this song so much. It’s my #1 most played song of all time on Spotify. It makes me so happy and it gives me a vibe of being in high school in like 1969. Just so whimsical.
I just listened to this song 2 days ago when I stopped at a Taco Bell in Sedialia MO. Loved it instantly. What kind of music is this? I really like it.
She is the daughter of the late John Morris Rankin of the Rankin Family, but I'm sure you Canadians already know that. Her voice has that Rankin tone, which is great. Different style of music though. I have been hearing this song a lot on Sirius radio. Great song.
Man this takes me back to the late 80's-early 90's, sorry if that sounds cliche or whatev but there was some great music coming out then and this would have fit right in nicely with my Curve and Lush records. I need to get this album, don't I...
Beautiful song and melody. So wistful and longing it actually brings tears to my eyes. Sort of like The Vaccines. Great stuff. Guess I'd better buy the album.

Yup. When she goes up a third (I think), it’s the cherry on top of the song.
Love that key change in her voice. And the spelling of Archie right after...perfect

This song came out so many years ago. I just discovered this song last week (December 2021) when I was listening to Sirius XM channel 35. I love this song. I’m gonna check all of this band’s music
It happens like that. I heard 4 years ago and listened to it probably 5 times in a row lol
Please do! This entire album and their 2nd one _Antisocialites_ are masterpieces! And if you liked them, their 3RD new album _Blue Rev_ is coming out in October! They’ve even released a single from it! It’s called “Pharmacist”! Check it out!

This song was randomly playing once in highschool when me and my friends were all sitting out in the stars on a blanket sharing special memories and stories and it will forever be special to me.
My new favourite song. Love the catchy tune, the mix, the distorted guitars with feedback(particularly in the second verse) , the jangly guitars, and the lyrics are just beautiful. Pure Genius! Wonderful vossonation!
The visuals in this song remind me of my childhood. Goofing around and having fun, around the water. Now even the opening guitar line sounds like youth to me. And that wishful dreamy echo on the vocals. :)
If I ever feel down and depressed, I come to this video. This song is so awesome and uplifting to me.
Exact opposite for me.I come here to feel more down than I am😂

Just discovered this song and band- I have now listened to their first 2 studio albums....I am absolutely blown away with this band. Every single song is so creative and has something different- the melodies are so well crafted, and the soundscapes this band creates are so ethereal and pretty. Absolutely incredible. For this song in particular, this has got to be one of the best songs of all time.
If a girl wrote a song like this for me I would sign my soul over to her
that's about the time she'd get over you.😭
is the girls name "lucifer" by any chance?
@@Justinbadger4 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I did honey 💕

The greatest pop band of the last decade. Over and over again this band proves themselves to be capable of writing airy gems that have lyrical gravity. Molly is nailing it.
0:21 my heart was shattered in infinite ways.
I love the way the guitars fade out and you hear that bass line in the second verse. Great song. Addictive.
Omg I am so glad someone else is the same way. I keep repeating the second verse because of this. It’s soo good.
Mac DeMarco releases a music video, Alvvays releases a music video, and the new Ty Segall album leaks, what a fuckin good day for indie rock
and real estates new vid tooo
was going to say the same thing right now!
pommep0mme saw that about 5 mins after i posted this comment hahaha
and Foxygen
a cool collection I really like the art direction in these videos! They all just seem so modern and cutting edge! It kind of gives me the same feeling that I got when the music videos for Blue Da Ba Dee and With Arms Wide Open came out.
Without Molly singing, their songs wouldn't even be half as good as they are. She has the voice of an angel.
This song was on a work playlist that I could vaguely hear in the background but now I have finally found it! Prepare for repeats!
Never heard of this band until 3 days ago when they opened for The Decemberists at The Ryman in Nashville....... Now I can't get their sound out of my head. Especially this one and Adult Diversion.......
Great band, sky's the limit! Good luck guys!😊😊
I haven’t heard this song in years, and now I’m crying as my mind ties it to the last two. We never listened to this song together, but hearing this now I can only think of her.
I broke up with her months ago, and did so because I knew it was best for me and believed it was best for her. I still believe this, and yet the pain seems no less for being the one who chose to leave.
Although I know she cannot see it now, I believe a happiness awaits her that is far greater than what I could give. Such a gentle soul deserves no less, and I pray she finds it soon.
Love you still, Samara.
Beautiful message
I also same situation now.
I think every choose in life is growth to you, so growing pains are with us all the time.
Bless you and her🤞
@@김동수-d8x Beautiful message
I can't wait to sing my heart out to this song tomorrow when I see them live!!!
aw this was 2 years ago wtf is happening to the time? :'(((
pyrrhichos time flys by fast af
pyrrhichos now It’s all lil pump , xxx, childish gambino 😥
Christopher Kelly hey, Gambino is really talented and original
Mr Archie Listen to Redbone or Me and Your Mama by Gambino. It will make you realize that good music is there in every generation, it's just hard to find
Where has this song been all my life?!? It's perfect.
I first heard ALVVAYS on Time Warner Cable's Music channel in 2014. Im so happy that they blew up, but its also bitter sweet. I love you ALVVAYS
This is a gem and I am so glad I came across it. You know how some songs you carry with you all your life , this is it.
Loved it .
me and my girl broke up abt 6 months ago... we were together for 8 years, but were friends since we were like 12.... this sound found me and i was like damn.. is this how she felt? we split up cuz she wanted to get married and have kids and i didnt... this song hits me right in the fucking heart my guy. a classic
@@kg7219 I know it will get better , we all do , I just hope it happens sooner for you mate. Take care
Uma sensação perfeita ao ouvir a música. Mto boa. Adorei a banda.
Eles são muito bons
+Izaias Junio ♥
Demais essa banda ! ♥
+Renan Borja o senso comum não está pronto pra esse tipo de música. ótimas palavras♥♥
Escutem Sunflower Bean, é tão bom quanto Avvays!
My dad would have loved this song.
Your dad better have been named Archie.
My dad was like Archie Bunker. A walking stereotype
Just saw alvvays in Utah tonight. What a dream come true. This song played and everyone cried and laughed together. What a dream of a moment.
I was surprised to have never heard of this 90ies alternative band. I got fooled. Great song.
there are a lot tho

That's a beautiful and very touching post, I love my own dog Dougal so much, I'm really sorry for the loss of your dear companion and family member, RIP Archie
This is the best pop song ever. Hands down. It will be recognised in due time not now
Indie pop/indie rock is called indie for a reason. The masses just wouldn't bite into it.
You are correct 100%. I'm surprised I had to scroll that far to find someone saying it.
Right up there with Friday I'm in Love in my book!
Best? Listen this is great and all but I wouldn't even call it the best pop song of the year it came out.
You probably missed out a lot. It's a great song for sure but not even the best in the entire dream pop universe.
this song is ridiculously well-written. melody isn't dead!
LOVE IT! LOVE THEM! I heard about them on the radio (a radio that usually plays mainstream songs at that), gotta give props for the radio station for being so open and sharing such good music!
+uareri27 Play them a lot on Indie 88.1 in Toronto
The one "rock" station we have in Mtl never played them.. =/
+uareri27 You can see them live in Montreal on Oct 20th.
kenny bob Thanks for the info!!
i really think this song will become a classic
Matthew Funke *you were correct.
it did
I don’t think I can get tired of videos that look and sound like this, they’re all Awesome
It's not quite this vibe, but it's close, but I recommend Runaway Runaway and Love in Black and White by Mars Argo
The union of her voice with the guitar is perfect. Its happy summer desire pop hook at its best. Love it.
Like 7-8 years ago I always listened this song on my work commute, hoping to find my ''Archie''
-And I did!
My now wife, is perfect in every way, she's everything I could've dared to hope.
''Hey, hey, marry me, Archie!'' Popped often in my head whenever I thought about proposing her and being married to her.
After wonderful 6 years she told me she's not happy anymore, so I'm back here listening Alvvays and reminiscing, trying to hold it together.
:( sorry mate that happened to you
fuck.
Okay but just so you know your archie used to be a homosexual (nothing wrong with that) yeah, he'd make any guy happy by getting down on his knees for a quick $20...😏 He was also a coke addict 😐
One foot in front of the other 😎
@BC-tn5ss Oh, is that how you make your way to the sausage factory at night to grab a few drinks and grab some other things as well...😏😉
This song plays so much in my head and i have never yet once looked this up intentionally until now
This song as well as the video hit me with such a high dose of Nostalgia that it's literally the most painful thing I ever experienced while being so beautiful at the same time...
Wow man what a tune why haven’t I heard this belter before today?Absolute beauty,summer staple forever from now on👌🏻☀️🕶️😎🏝️🍹
How did you find it? I'm curious
Where did you found it?
I heard a clip of it on a tv programme,Shazammed it and have played it to death ever since👌🏻

Oh well that makes sense.
For me, I'm called Archie , and someone sent me this song 🤣🤣🤣
I think she should Mariachi

funny but lose points for being a pun. 6/10.
this is the funniest thing i’ve ever read
HAHAHAHHA I LOVE THIS
Why is that guitar wail at 01:15 so good?
Archie: I've expressed explicitly my contempt for matrimony.
Haha cool.
Hey hey, wanna get married?
The story of every relationship ever, really
Matthias Brunner no lol

Hey you might like The Doublejumps if you like Alvvays

I love this song so much. It’s my #1 most played song of all time on Spotify. It makes me so happy and it gives me a vibe of being in high school in like 1969. Just so whimsical.
Song was suggested for me. Glad it was. Great vocals and I love the surf rock feel.
Same. The youtube sidebar has been a huge blessing for me over the years.
I always listen to ALVVAYS all ways.
I just listened to this song 2 days ago when I stopped at a Taco Bell in Sedialia MO. Loved it instantly. What kind of music is this? I really like it.
She is the daughter of the late John Morris Rankin of the Rankin Family, but I'm sure you Canadians already know that. Her voice has that Rankin tone, which is great. Different style of music though. I have been hearing this song a lot on Sirius radio. Great song.
I'm a huge fan of your song "The Prettiest Thing"!
This song will travel through space-time forever.
In a million years they'll watch it and shiver.

Best radio en peru amen
Amazing song matched with an incredible video. Human excellence
Keanu Reeves got immaculate taste in music! Instantly fell in love with this group!
how do you know he listens to Alvvays?
I am 53 years old and I think this a GREAT song!
Dude, don't be apologizing for your age!
govern0r lol
72 here...and this song will stand up with anything written the past 50 years.
if anyone was wondering, i slowed down the video to see what was being signed. the letters spell out “the hand” (i’m pretty sure)
Recently discovered this song from my Amazon Music "My Soundtrack" station. Really like the sound. Reminds me of early/mid-90's indie.
I thought this was a Cranberries song, you're totally right.
Man this takes me back to the late 80's-early 90's, sorry if that sounds cliche or whatev but there was some great music coming out then and this would have fit right in nicely with my Curve and Lush records. I need to get this album, don't I...
i fell in love with someone called archie once. this song never fails to remind me of being very young & experiencing those feelings again. ♥️
This will always remind me of my college days. Thank you Alvvays, for being that band for me
How many times i listened (please dont ask, thanks.)
I LOVE VINTAGE STYLE SONGS. I DISCOVERED THIS SONG IN 2020

This song makes me feel so warm inside and nostalgic for something that is undescribed, amazing.
5 years late but dang is this the greatest song of all time ? I think it might be you know.
Thank you, Song Exploder, for introducing me to this song. It's lovely!
One of the most beautiful songs written in the last 25 years…
The first time I've heard the song was in October 2017. I'm still obsessed with this song
Beautiful song and melody. So wistful and longing it actually brings tears to my eyes. Sort of like The Vaccines. Great stuff. Guess I'd better buy the album.
Can I just say it's comments like these that make me want to move to Canada? Yall seem so nice!
Nailed it
it does, doesn't it? Something wonderfully nostalgic about it, I can't get it out of my head now.
Their album is perfect!
I'm with you ;-(
One of the best songs ever produced on the planet. These cats are so cool, my three-piece suit flies off of me whenever I hear it.
