Honestly, I had heard of this band but knew nothing about their music. Last night I worked security at their concert opening for Garbage and I must say I mesmerized by Emily Haines voice. That was an amazing show and I'm glad I discovered their music.
@izatafactnow WOW! I've just checked out a few of their videos and loved them. I hadn't heard of Broken Social Scene before, they are so good, thank you for sharing them with me, I'll be watching more of their videos this weekend. This is awesome. BTW Sweetest Kill video is really gory but it's such a good song. I'll be enjoying their music this weekend. Thanks again!
I'm not sure if being in my late 50's and loving this band destroys their cool factor but Metric is a complete gem. Utterly original and far to good to be played on regular radio formats.
A few months ago, I broke down and got Spotify to have music playing while doing my daily walk. I listen to the CHVRCHES station, and this band keeps coming up with banger after banger. Time to get an album or two!
Metric is the only band that has more than ten songs that absolutely give me goosebumps every time that I hear them. Truly inspirational, invigorating, and reassuring. I remember who the fuck I am and know just what to do after I hear a song. Its swagger fuel to say the very least. Thank you for putting my feelings to words so many times. I love u guys.
Can you please suggest a song or album to follow this up with? This is the first song of theirs I've heard, and it's so good that I don't want to be disappointed. I have a lot of artists in this category.
OK, I've resisted posting about this song, its a great song, but after she does that little dance in the interlude...that smile on her face. She nailed it, and she knows it. Love Metric. Cheers
I know there isn't something that is truly perfect, but this song is as close as it gets. From the lyrics, to the rhythm, the whole construct of the song and progression, Emily's sweet ethereal voice... I'm moved by this song no matter how many times I listen to it. Thank you for continuing to make music! I could say the same for many of your songs over the years.
@@Phlacc Old man, look at my life Twenty-four, and there's so much more Live alone in a paradise That makes me think of two Love lost, such a cost Give me things that don't get lost Like a coin that won't get tossed Rolling home to you
This is the first Metric Tune that I was turned onto via an algorithm... Thank you Team You Tube. For introducing my eyes and ears to Metric's sound & songs like, "RISK"! :)
It's a dread disease called Tragically Hip Syndrome. Canada has produced some terrific bands over the past 30 years that just have not made a dent in the US.
This song came at the most perfect time for me personally. I'm sure it does for many many others. This particular song and the album it is in is part of my journey to quit my day job as a laboratory tech. This video is just a week before it. I quit so I could take the crazy risk to do music with my bandmates. Finish an album, tour, etc. It's an insane and bittersweet risk, and as a 24 year old, it is something I require myself to do. I think a lot of young people need to take risks to chase the seemingly impossible. It will be too late if we wait. The thing that will hurt is the money and the possibility of failure.. but I will take this risk to save my soul. As a major fan of Metric, with a tear running down my eye, I cannot appreciate them enough for their sound and lyrics to be part of my story. I will remember the Art Of Doubt album forever. Thank you Metric. Young dreamers have to hear you.
Good luck to both of you, enjoy the ride, stay humble, and don’t take yourselves too seriously. I’ve worked in the music industry for 30 years; I’ve been fortunate enough to work with some of the biggest names in modern music, and I’ve made a decent living for myself (very rare, I know). One of the wisest moves you can make for yourself as an artist-buy yourself some real estate, no joke. It will subsidize you through the tough times. Best move I ever made.
Im sure you guys are too busy to read any of these but honestly Metric, this song and your band have touched me throughout my life without me even realizing till later that is was your beautiful amazing songs, inspring my good taste in music and making me feel better about life. PLEASE never stop making this euphoric music
I am 60 yrs cool and I am convinced that Metric is the best Canadian band ever produced! The originality, the diverse contrast, and the sincerity they play with is amazing! Each song is a spirit of it's own! Never before have I been touched on all three levels of my being by any band until Metric! I lost someone close to me whose fav song was Breathing Under Water! I still cry when I hear that song and thats how I was introduced to this great band! No regrets you guys "Rock" Keep it coming!
So you got away Something brought you back To the kid that you were For a couple days Everything you lacked You possessed It was yours Started slow Started late Started strong Then we lost faith Started slow Started to lose control The more we accelerate With your hollow eyes You keep coming back It begins to transform Can you spend the night? Can you be the raft In the eye of the storm? Started slow Started late Started strong Then we lost faith Started slow Started to lose control The more we accelerate The more we accelerate Can I send this kiss right to you now? 'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow Can I return this kiss that you gave? Already know it’s borrowed anyway Was the risk I sent to you received? All the words we say to be believed? I’m already over the thrill of pursuit Where can I take the risk I took with you? Send this kiss to someone new? So you're beaten up But you bounce back It’s all part of the pull And the story runs Like a soundtrack We repeat 'til we're full Started slow Started late Started strong Then we lost faith Started slow Started to lose control The more we accelerate The more we accelerate Can I send this kiss right to you now? 'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow Can I return this kiss that you gave? Already know it’s borrowed anyway Was the risk I sent to you received? All the words we say to be believed? I’m already over the thrill of pursuit Where can I take the risk I took with you? Send this kiss to someone new? So there's no way to hide Find some daylight There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden And I'm inclined to try Find some daylight Hollow eyes There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden And I'm inclined to try
I don't think I believe in The Perfect Band. I used to think there was at least one forgettable song in every musician's repertoire. I can't find a single boring song in Metric's discography. Every single one is a neon confection of infectious chords, an undeniable backbeat, and lyrical soul candy that makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I found Pagans in Vegas by chance in a record shop, listened to it and fell headlong into an obsession. At this point, if Metric isn't the perfect band, don't tell me about it.
Gold Guns Girls will probably remain my all time metric favorite. But Risk is really beautifully haunting. I can't stop falling in love with the chorus over and over again and again
Alt rock stations are the only thing I can stand nowadays. Classic rock(boring, overplayed songs ive heard a million times. There are hundreds of other amazing classic rock songs ya know djs!!) Pop(nothing but sex, drinking/partying, and nostalgic lyrics with shit melodies gets old) Country(makes me wanna smash my radio from the terrible cliche "met a girl, took her down to the lake, then we drank, made love,truck, bar, whisky" stfu already idc lyrics). Ya radio sucks for the most part, and im bitter af
Radio sucks these days Back in the day they were vital for introducing us the listener to new bands like Aerosmith; Berlin and many more but now ?? It’s basically streaming services like Spotify and RUclips of course! Great music has a way of getting heard and this is a great example !! What a powerful song and video !!!
@@salvatoreingrassia8585 radio sucks these days because music sucks these days!! The lyrics are garbage and the instrumentation is average or worse. KEPC plays a nice variety, spanning 4 decades!
New favourite song and I love this woman and her dancing! I hope I can see you live at some point! (can't believe I didn't know this band until yesterday)
Her voice gives me strong goosebumps every time I hear the song, such a wonderful feeling when it happens. No other singer does that to me except Emily.
I love the subtle air guitar moment Emily does at 2:52. The chord progression during this part is so beautiful, and I can’t resist doing air guitar every time I hear it. This album has so many amazing moments like that.
As a Floridian, I approve Emily's choice of shirt for this video. Florida is one big sandbar composed of the crushed shells of millions of years of regrets.
This song resonates to so many because we've all had at least one relationship where we run and chase each other, but it never goes anywhere. Only to find out, you weren't the only one in the picture.
Wow, they need to put this band back on US radio! I just looked up this band after a long time, and they still got it and more! I saw them in Oakland 7 years ago, and they are welcome back in CA anytime.
metric is definitly an example of why it can be so hard to put a band into some generic category, their so unique, they combine so many different sounds and elements from different places, you can hear pop, indie, electronic, alt rock, punk all in the same song. I think their one of the most diverse bands out their. and one of the best, after all how many other bands that have been around as long as metric has are still putting out great music, damn near zero. Great video too. Separate note, look up winona ryder in blonde hair, her and emily are damn similar looking, every time i see winona i think oh theirs emily from metric in brown hair.
I'm so glad I finally found this song! I've been hearing it occasionally on 99.3 Fox FM (Vancouver, Canada) and was pretty sure it was Metric but just couldn't find it. It's been stuck in my head for a while now. Just a great song. Love the vocals and tasty guitar.
probably my favourite song from the album. I love this band more each day ! i had the honor to participate in the "love you back" video. Hugs from Argentina. xoxoxo
Fascinating to see and notice how memories are created or how association in your brain works. This song will always take me back to the peak of the corona pandemic. This song somehow made it to my list and i played the list during work. Each time i hear this song i see myself sitting at my desk at home. Sorry, ramblings of an old fool
To be this good and still not get the worldwide recognition this band deserves explains just how corrupt the music business actually is. Guys you all are so talented, please do not ever give up as your music resonates with so many people🎶🙏😊
the blocking on this video is amazing...all the changing light sources and angles, and all the movement and turning, and the camera person's shadow was either dodged the entire time, or maybe digitally removed, but either way, it looks amazing
This song really helped me get through a horrible breakup from a long term relationship, it helped me from being stuck on him. And now I'm doing so much better, I met someone who has also helped me through it all and I'm finally starting a new chapter in my life, thank you for this song, it means a lot to me.
I don't know if they write their own stuff but this song is an absolute masterpiece in every way. I don't think I've ever heard such a smooth transition to such a powerful chorus. I'm sure I'm not the only one that gets goosebumps when that change over occurs. It's sublime. Easily one of Canada's most underrated and best bands.
👋👋 Yes 'our' Emily writes lyrics . . I am so elated that I have followed the group since 1999. Her dad is a poet and for that we must thank Mr. Haines for passing on his gift to Emily. I cannot believe Emily will be 47 in couple of weeks and still takes over a stage like a teenager bopping about. The whole band of mates are all geniuses if you ask me.
@@mikeconstante6862 it's not mean at all. there's nothing wrong with Emily - and all of us - getting older and being in our 30s, 40s, etc. it's a natural process that we have to just accept
Even though there's vocal processing on this song, listening to her sing live is pretty amazing. Seach "metric unplugged" on RUclips and be amazed how smooth her voice is even unfiltered.
I agree that her voice is impressive. I disagree that she sounds young, she sounds mature and in control. 21 year olds practically never have this much skill and control. Age has value.
Eeee....so happy for you ... WHAT a catalogue of 'work' you have to go through. Plus all the great live videos shot and uploaded by the many across the globe that have been front and center to capture their rock solid talent. They sound the same live as in studio. Best to you as you venture forth in learning of their various periods in prior 20 years. Emily is simply poet bliss personified.
Daniel Zuk Or maybe it’s just fucking straight out rude to touch someone you don’t even know. Just because you pay for their music and you’re a fan doesn’t mean you can just go up to them and touch them.
OMG! I love everything about this video. Emily Haines. Her looks, her moves, her singing. One of the best video/songs of the year. I want to send this kiss to some one new!
And the award for the greatest underrated band goes to…….. Of course, most fans of Metric are so much more fortunate than anyone or anything that comes within 100 miles of an “award show”!
Very Big in Canada! and I've liked them in the US since way back (18++ years ago) - Emily Hayes is extraordinarily talented and I had a glimpse of them at PNC in NJ pre-pandemic doing a small set opening for another band - very unfortunate there's no East Coast demand for them I wish I can see her closer to home!

Love, Love, Love the new stuff. Looking forward to concerts ❤️👍👍
I took a peek at the last setlist...Please sing this track in Dallas 🤩💔
This is 80s sound. Crazy how stuff comes back around. Very nostalgic
Honestly, I had heard of this band but knew nothing about their music. Last night I worked security at their concert opening for Garbage and I must say I mesmerized by Emily Haines voice. That was an amazing show and I'm glad I discovered their music.
Same here. First time hearing of them at a Garbage concert. 😊
In austin?
I have loved metric since I saw them perform with imagine dragons & halsey ♡ smoke & mirrors tour
Love hearing experiences like this having been a fan for almost 20 years!
Reading this just now makes my heart giddy AF🔥🤘🏽❤️🩹
I love how Emily dances, and sings.
Agreed! Check out her early collabs when she and Feist were in Broken Social Scene. So good!
@izatafactnow WOW! I've just checked out a few of their videos and loved them. I hadn't heard of Broken Social Scene before, they are so good, thank you for sharing them with me, I'll be watching more of their videos this weekend. This is awesome.

52 here. In my dad jeans. lol
If anything, it ups your cool factor.
48 here, just discovered Metric … best feeling when you uncover a musical gem, never gets old ...
Calvin Dueck sure doesn’t! Makes it even cooler that your down with great music! You are awesome!
62 here and rock this song almost daily! It just has a driving force!
This band should be so much more popular than they already are.
Who else replays this Metric song a million times a day?
Strangely obsessed. The song is written so tightly. That might be part of it. Also, the video is so spare.
@@bagelverse The way she dances through the video and the guitars coming loud during the break, its really good
Meeeeeeeee
This is one of their best. Love this song
Me as well haha

Yeah the sheer number of amazing songs that Metric has in their discography is definitely part of their greatness.
@@KuragariNoKaze I hope they come out with more soon. It's been too long.
Really well said.
I agree, I don't think there is any other female fronted band that gives me goosebumps like emily and metric
Can you please suggest a song or album to follow this up with? This is the first song of theirs I've heard, and it's so good that I don't want to be disappointed. I have a lot of artists in this category.
I can't think of many other modern rock bands that have been going 25+ years and are still going as strong as when they started.
OK, I've resisted posting about this song, its a great song, but after she does that little dance in the interlude...that smile on her face. She nailed it, and she knows it. Love Metric. Cheers
Probably too a few takes beforehand though. Nevertheless, imperious in every way.

Strong agree about the chord progression. Different, creative, catchy. The major 3 in the chorus… chef’s kiss.
This is a hit. One of the best songs released by any band in the last 20 years.
Absolutely!
Well said amigo!

This woman is a poet with the voice of a newly fallen angel.
Despite the heavy eye shadow and eyelashes, there is no arguing the dance scene at 2:45 is absolutely justified. Love me some Metric!!!
Dance like nobody is watching
Jimmy did seriously awesome guitar work on this song.
This song is so under rated How was this not a huge hit?
I 100% agree. She has the most incredible voice I have ever heard.
It's a dread disease called Tragically Hip Syndrome. Canada has produced some terrific bands over the past 30 years that just have not made a dent in the US.
Because unfortunately popular doesn't necessarily mean good.
Because they aren't selling their souls for fame
What an absolute banger. Definitely in my top 5 Metric jams.
This song came at the most perfect time for me personally. I'm sure it does for many many others. This particular song and the album it is in is part of my journey to quit my day job as a laboratory tech. This video is just a week before it.

Damn, I love their drummer. He's brilliant.
He is. Massively undersung
Kudos to the DP, this video was shot beautifully!
2:45
Listener: "Nice amping up of the energy! I'm invigorated!"
Song: "This isn't even my final form!"
So you got away
Something brought you back
To the kid that you were
For a couple days
Everything you lacked
You possessed
It was yours
Started slow
Started late
Started strong
Then we lost faith
Started slow
Started to lose control
The more we accelerate
With your hollow eyes
You keep coming back
It begins to transform
Can you spend the night?
Can you be the raft
In the eye of the storm?
Started slow
Started late
Started strong
Then we lost faith
Started slow
Started to lose control
The more we accelerate
The more we accelerate
Can I send this kiss right to you now?
'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow
Can I return this kiss that you gave?
Already know it’s borrowed anyway
Was the risk I sent to you received?
All the words we say to be believed?
I’m already over the thrill of pursuit
Where can I take the risk I took with you?
Send this kiss to someone new?
So you're beaten up
But you bounce back
It’s all part of the pull
And the story runs
Like a soundtrack
We repeat 'til we're full
Started slow
Started late
Started strong
Then we lost faith
Started slow
Started to lose control
The more we accelerate
The more we accelerate
Can I send this kiss right to you now?
'Cause the risk belongs with you somehow
Can I return this kiss that you gave?
Already know it’s borrowed anyway
Was the risk I sent to you received?
All the words we say to be believed?
I’m already over the thrill of pursuit
Where can I take the risk I took with you?
Send this kiss to someone new?
So there's no way to hide
Find some daylight
There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden
And I'm inclined to try
Find some daylight
Hollow eyes
There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden
And I'm inclined to try

Metric is that band you listen to when you're sad and want to feel things you've never felt before.
But also, like, normal times to cause they're a vibe.
Metric, one of the most unique bands of all time! We are so fortunate to have them!
Seriously, this is a masterpiece that should make it as popular in 2020 as it ever was! Radio stations wake the F. Up!! Thank you KEPC!

Wonderful track off a phenomenal album. Emily is magnetic (as usual) in the video.
Think it's just the eyelashes xD
Her voice gives me strong goosebumps every time I hear the song, such a wonderful feeling when it happens. No other singer does that to me except Emily.

Metric is kind of music you can put on all day. They play across all genres and do so brilliantly
Easily a top 10 song of all time
Chills. This might be my new favorite Metric song. It's amazing how Emily can somehow exude both strength and vulnerability as she sings.

Got broken up with a couple days ago and can't stop listening to this and Now or Never Now. They go perfectly with the feeling of loss and recovery
All their songs touch a nerve with me, I love how they tell a story and aren't just the same five words over and over and over again.
What incredible charisma . Stunningly beautiful song
The measurement for good music when you live in a world of rap and Hip-hop is Metric!
For me this track comes to life at 2:45 when the instrumental break kicks in. Those chord changes are superb. it's good before that as well like.
My new favorite video. The way she just strolls through the song with her own unique style of swagger. Loved every second of it.
2:45....
Talk about keeping it under budget. But she one of those people that can pull it off (not ignoring the band but she's the focal point of the group)
grow up
love song
very Morrissey like
I was just thinking to myself, "this woman has SWAGGER!"
This song is a total masterpiece.
Such a special group of gifted musicians. Forever close to my heart
This Surprised Me For ALL THE RIGHT REASONS
Lyrically, musically and visually amazing.
Why this resonates now so much, maybe i am ready...its now or never! Come on universe!

Emily's body language is just on a higher level. Great singer, great songs. M E T R I C
Honestly, Metric is one of my newest favorite bands ever. I only just realized I love everything I've ever heard of theirs.
Go listen the old music they are so good :)
single take, perfectly synced song, perfect lighting, no visible mistakes anywhere
this video is a lot more than it seems

not sure what else to say except for metric deserves more credit than they have gotten; absolutely beautiful music filled with amazing energy.
I love Metric so so so so much
I love Metric
It's even better every time I listen....
I'm sad i hadn't seen this band sooner. Perfection. The Sounds. The IMages. The Thoughts.
Why worry, they're still around, as this slab of gold demonstrates
Emily is a musical genius.
She’s perfect ❤
Yeah just watched this again, she's PERFECT!!!! ❤
I'm so glad I finally found this song! I've been hearing it occasionally on 99.3 Fox FM (Vancouver, Canada) and was pretty sure it was Metric but just couldn't find it. It's been stuck in my head for a while now. Just a great song. Love the vocals and tasty guitar.
2:47 it reminds me of a hymn I sung in church! Nice touch
This band gives the same feeling I get whenever I go to San Francisco: just raw excitement to be surrounded in unadulterated creativity and adventure.
probably my favourite song from the album. I love this band more each day !
i had the honor to participate in the "love you back" video. Hugs from Argentina. xoxoxo
All in one take. 😳Pure magic.🤩🙏🏻🥰💕🌞🤘🏻
I find her completely captivating and can't take my eyes off her. She is astounding. 500 of these hits must be mine.
Fascinating to see and notice how memories are created or how association in your brain works. This song will always take me back to the peak of the corona pandemic. This song somehow made it to my list and i played the list during work. Each time i hear this song i see myself sitting at my desk at home. Sorry, ramblings of an old fool
Lyrically, this album holds the gold. 🧗♀️🎤🥇
I'm glad. I just ordered the vinyl recently. Can't wait to enjoy the entire thing.
Incredible song. One of the best I’ve heard in a long time. That chorus has hooks for days.
And the following instrumental is just as good after the break!
To be this good and still not get the worldwide recognition this band deserves explains just how corrupt the music business actually is. Guys you all are so talented, please do not ever give up as your music resonates with so many people🎶🙏😊
Not everyone likes the same music you do...just saying.
the blocking on this video is amazing...all the changing light sources and angles, and all the movement and turning, and the camera person's shadow was either dodged the entire time, or maybe digitally removed, but either way, it looks amazing
It is an awesome video
most underrated song ever
This song really helped me get through a horrible breakup from a long term relationship, it helped me from being stuck on him. And now I'm doing so much better, I met someone who has also helped me through it all and I'm finally starting a new chapter in my life, thank you for this song, it means a lot to me.
There's another way to leave the garden of Eden...Such an amazing song.
I don't know if they write their own stuff but this song is an absolute masterpiece in every way. I don't think I've ever heard such a smooth transition to such a powerful chorus. I'm sure I'm not the only one that gets goosebumps when that change over occurs. It's sublime. Easily one of Canada's most underrated and best bands.
👋👋 Yes 'our' Emily writes lyrics . . I am so elated that I have followed the group since 1999. Her dad is a poet and for that we must thank Mr. Haines for passing on his gift
to Emily. I cannot believe Emily will be 47 in couple of weeks and still takes over a stage like a teenager bopping about. The whole band of mates are all geniuses if you
ask me.
dude, my spine tingles throughout the whole song!
Metric is awesome. I mean Emily is unbelievably beautiful. Great band. In my top ten for sure
She kills me when she sings “there’s another way to leave the garden of Eden”
Where the hell did this come from?!..took my breath away!...perfect!
it’s 2021, still truly madly deeply in love with this one ☝️
Wait until you find Pagans in Vegas!! AWESOME!!
Same🎉
My favorite track from the album! Lovely one-take video with our rock queen!
Fell n love & helped shed my ignorance of music & know its always on my hip, heart, or head. Thx E! Thank you Metric!!
First comment ever but I got hooked yrs prior
"There's another way to leave the Garden of Eden, and I'm inclined to try" . . . . Absolutely epic.
Her voice tone is so amazing. Sounds like she is in her 20s
this is nice and mean at the same time
@@mikeconstante6862 it's not mean at all. there's nothing wrong with Emily - and all of us - getting older and being in our 30s, 40s, etc. it's a natural process that we have to just accept
Even though there's vocal processing on this song, listening to her sing live is pretty amazing. Seach "metric unplugged" on RUclips and be amazed how smooth her voice is even unfiltered.
she even looks like she's in her 20s, she's aged so well
I agree that her voice is impressive. I disagree that she sounds young, she sounds mature and in control. 21 year olds practically never have this much skill and control. Age has value.
Instantly, this song takes me back to my high school years in the early 80s... that palm muted guitar, in particular.
listening this song since corona virus 2020 and now still listening haha this song never get old for long long time. Love from Indonesia
Once again Metric giving us the positive energy we need to get through these days.
Found Metric via Pandora and I’m smitten with their sound. This song, in particular. Helps me get through my day.
I discovered this band literally 2 days ago. I'm happy, but sad for all those lost years.
Eeee....so happy for you ... WHAT a catalogue of 'work' you have to go through. Plus all the great live videos shot and uploaded by the many across the globe that have been front and center to capture their rock solid talent. They sound the same live as in studio.
Best to you as you venture forth in learning of their various periods in prior 20 years.
Emily is simply poet bliss personified.
I'm very lucky to meet Metric. I've listened to every album they had! 😀
got vib .
find your own hahaha
Daniel Zuk Or maybe it’s just fucking straight out rude to touch someone you don’t even know. Just because you pay for their music and you’re a fan doesn’t mean you can just go up to them and touch them.
They touch me through their music
OMG! I love everything about this video. Emily Haines. Her looks, her moves, her singing. One of the best video/songs of the year. I want to send this kiss to some one new!
fuckyourslfe
Metric !!! Nothing else !!!
And the award for the greatest underrated band goes to……..
Of course, most fans of Metric are so much more fortunate than anyone or anything that comes within 100 miles of an “award show”!
Damn this is a good song! The raw emotion on her face is so beautiful
She is awesome, and the band, maybe more so!! Just a great composition!
My favorite find in years!!
Very Big in Canada! and I've liked them in the US since way back (18++ years ago) - Emily Hayes is extraordinarily talented and I had a glimpse of them at PNC in NJ pre-pandemic doing a small set opening for another band - very unfortunate there's no East Coast demand for them I wish I can see her closer to home!
I'll RISK to replay this song... Oh shit, something is wrong, I can't stop doing this!
