    Their most underrated song by everyone, the fans and the band itself, if it was my song it would be on every show like Wake Up is. The end part is so freaking epic!

    I was brought up in the Suburbs, so I really get this, I want to cry sometimes,,, I am 52 from Glasgow Scotland. Back in the late 70's and early 80's music really did divide us into tribes. My friends and I were all into heavy metal and prog rock, like King Crimson, Sabbath, early Alice Cooper. I wore all the gear ripped faded jeans, Army jacket with all the patches, Zep, Zappa.We had friends who were Punks and we had to fight the skinheads, who hated everyone.
    But one day, I remember, I must have turned 15, I had heard a Bowie song on the Radio, and it just so happened that the massive Virgin Record store which had 6 floors that I went too every Saturday had a Bowie record sale, really cheap, about the 3rd of the price of current ones.So I bought like 4 records including the one which had the song from the radio, the album was Hunky Dory, WOW. I was in real Music Heaven for months, so I became a Mod, we wore Stay press trousers, Black shoes, shirt and cheap blazers with an American 2nd hand army store parker with the fishtail and we rode scooters. What had happened in the 60's in the UK was happening again.
    But,,,,, where are all my friends now, they all left Scotland for work and the others died through drugs,,,,,,,, Heroin, and Benzos destroyed my generation,, but hey,, Arcade fire give this man, in his early 40's another chance to enjoy great music and Bowie loved them and pushed them from the very start. Seen the Fire in glasgow twice and in londons Hyde park in 2015 in front of 65,000 people. They done this track just as the sun went down behind us, on one of the hottest days of the year, even before the song, Win looked out over the crowd and urged us to turn and look at one of the best sunsets he had ever seen, GREAT STUFF>

    Bittersweet coming of age in a place with nothing to do, and your friends are your world, and it rips your heart out to lose them but you grow apart, and you still hope to reconnect, in a chance meeting, but it's never the same. This song really captures the feelings, and I'm still looking for you in each passing car...

    They did this about a half dozen times during soundcheck at Shoreline Amphitheater a couple of years ago. It was amazing. Alas, they didn't do the song during their set. I was a little bummed. I thought since they sound checked it, they were going to play it. The show was still amazing though, and I actually got to be onstage wearing a bobblehead during 'Normal People'. The thrill of a lifetime!
