One of the best "live acoustic" versions of any song I've ever heard. Just beautiful. I almost didn't listen because "live acoustic" versions, especially of highly-produced thumpy tunes are almost always disappointing. Glad I gave it a shot. Well done.
Here I am, a few years after hearing this song the last time, thinking to myself that this has to be one of my favorite songs, but somehow I didn't realize it before now. I mean, I really liked the song, but I guess this scaled-down version of it made me realize how well written it is...
This isn't the type of stuff I usually listen to, but for some reason the other version of this song played on my Pandora a few years ago and that part is exactly why it stayed on my Pandora. I don't know any of their other music, but I do enjoy this song, and really like this acoustic version.
All these people are talking about how they look and "ugh why are they wearing sunglasses indoors?!" Like stfu they can wear sunglasses whenever they want. Plus what you're supposed to be focused on is their fucking amazing music. Its amazing and her voice is lovely.
This is the only version I know. I've had this on a CD for over 10 years and never checked it out. This MP3 is the only knowledge I have of this song. I am so excited to hear any version while knowing nothing will be beat this one.
Hearing this version now makes me concur that Help I'm Alive is one of the most well-crafted songs in recent memory. It's right on that level of songwriting like Nowhere Man or (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction. These songs are very cleverly written in their simplicity.
This song serves poetic justice. It's fn amazing The transitions are so perfect and beautifully planned along with its melody. Metric is one of those bands that leave me in aww
🎵🎵🎶🎶if I'm still alive... my regrets are few... if my life is mine.. what shouldn't I do... I get wherever I'm going.. I get whatever I need🎶🎶🎵🎵 I'm like at least 4,500 of the views on this video. all time favorite.
My new favourite song on my new year of life . . . 42 on the 24th There was a full moon lunar eclipse last night theme keeps coming back to radical self love and acceptance
You hit me the 1st time i heard this and Metric...just like when I heard Nirvana the first time and knew music changed ...."who is this!?" Same with Smashing Pumpkins with 1979 on my clock radio waking up in 1996, 1st yr of law school, and 1st time I saw Garbage ...really Shirley Manson perform , Special," that's it.

Emily Haines is just beyond amazing. She gives me goosebumps.. Perfect live..

Discovering metric little by little and my heart is healing ❤️🩹
the album version
the acoustic version
and the live version
are all very good :3
The acoustic version is beautiful!
They did a great job pulling this off. She really does have a nice voice, and they've proven they don't need studio bells and whistles to sound good.
heh heh Beavis ;)
Dang sometimes the YT algo hits it right on the head! I forgot how much I love this song!
this is a VERY well written song.
A masterpiece

The way she says "they're gonna eat me alive" is so pleasing to my ears

the song is about armie hammer
i love it when her voice cracks!
Sunglasses inside. We know what kind of night she had last night (maybe even into the morning)! This is why I love Metric 🍻😁

karla acosta what are those damn nerds wearing
Heroin tends to cause many people wear shades indoors
What people are you talking about.? If they once were here, they seem to have left.
Ya if you're wondering why they're wearing sunglasses, it's because they are just that cool.
Omg can’t believe they’re wearing sunglasses indoors !! This is completely unacceptable.
this version is beautiful
I love whenever they wear The Shade(s)
She is beautiful and her voice is magnificent
She cuts right through my soul. An angel.
Its been 11 years and guess what....its still awesome :P
Checking in from 2022, song is still awesome
After knowing only the electronic, synthed up version, this inimate version is a delight. So simple...and vulnerable. Well done!!!
This is the only version I know. I've had this on a CD for over 10 years and never checked it out. This MP3 is the only knowledge I have of this song. I am so excited to hear any version while knowing nothing will be beat this one.
her voice is incredible the electronic is better
i mean holy crap... what a great version of this song. they eared the right to wear sunglasses indoors whenever they want

I've always found this song particularly interesting but holy shit it's so good in acoustic form.
Heard this song at the end of dying light 2 credits 12 years late 😁
Its the perfect song they could've picked for the ending, fr it was amazing
They're from Toronto, my home city.
Great, sounds like a laid back Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs song!
Ugh...her voice.... Hits hard. Amazing!
It was an Amazing experience hearing this for the very first time, and every time since.
Absolutely beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful!
Flawed masterpiece. This song has been haunting me for a week. Just found it again. Thank you Metric.
Love this song so much. Thanks Brandon!
Had to take a breather at 1:14. Still amazing today. She's on the Youth fountain water thing. Still looks the same.
This song serves poetic justice. It's fn amazing The transitions are so perfect and beautifully planned along with its melody. Metric is one of those bands that leave me in aww
I have only recently discovered this beautiful, wonderful, melodic sound that is Metric.
LOVE the arrangement on this song. Go Canada!
I love this song. This version is amazing too.
I love this band so much because in the end, they bring it all back to sixth grade music class.
Love this song
Very good and well-crafted.
The final 45 seconds are especially moving.
Such a beautiful song. Fantastic live performance! Thanks for sharing
