Lyrics
I'm in the black again
Can't make it back again
We can just pretend
We'll make it home again
From everything now
[Verse 1]
Every inch of sky's got a star
Every inch of skin's got a scar
I guess that you've got everything now
Every inch of space in your head
Is filled up with the things that you read
I guess you've got everything now
And every film that you've ever seen
Fills the spaces up in your dreams
That reminds me
(Everything now
Everything now)
Every inch of road's got a sign
And every boy uses the same line
I pledge allegiance to everything now
Every song that I've ever heard
Is playing at the same time, it's absurd
And it reminds me, we've got everything now
We turn the speakers up till they break
'Cause every time you smile it's a fake!
Stop pretending, you've got…
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!)
Everything now
Every inch of road's got a town
Daddy, how come you're never around?
I miss you, like everything now
Mama, leave the food on the stove
Leave your car in the middle of the road
This happy family with everything now
We turn the speakers up till they break
'Cause every time you smile it's a fake!
Stop pretending, you've got...
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!)
'Til every room in my house is filled with shit I couldn't live without
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!)
(Everything now!)
Everything now
La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La
Stop pretending, you've got...
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I want it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live
(Everything now!)
And every room in my house is filled with shit I couldn't live without
(Everything now!) I need it
(Everything now!) I can't live without
(Everything now!) I can't live
(Everything now!)
Every inch of space in my heart is filled with something I'll never start
The ashes of everything now
And then you're black again
Can't make it back again
From everything now
When Arcade Fire released Funeral in 2004 on a very small budget David Bowie said he spent the entire day going around New York City buying every copy he could find so he could give them to his friends....he knew then what we know now.
lolz, maybe, but the legend is a lot more fun, so it's true
People died to make that album. Hence the name Funeral. Sad story, good album.
I don't know for you but when I heard Funeral in 2004 I was just like Bowie.
For a man of his caliber that probably warranted his entire day.
everyone had that reaction when they first heard funeral.
I was in the crowd at Voodoo Fest last year when Win told everyone to start chanting the chorus. He said that'd we'd all be in the new album and that we'd all thank him later. Well here it is, thank you Win.
Awesome.
i was there too. so cool.
What a great Anecdote.... So awseome
I was there too. That show was better than anything I could have expected
Very lucky guy!!
It's unbelievable that this song was released in 2017. It sounds like old rock classics.
Mucho de Bowie
Found this song after my big bro and best friend passed away ..He would have love this..Everything about it😊
More like disco classics
It sounds 70s. The best era of music of any era and if they had existed then they would have stood out as well.
Arcade Fire could have been sued by Templeton for copying their 2014 song. But they didn't, possibly because it gave them some publicity. 🤷

Fun fact: The "nananana"s in the bridge are from a recording of one of their concerts in New Orleans, where they played the piano line and asked the crowd to sing a long to it, before even hearing what song it was going to be on.
Idk I just find that super wholesome and imagine being one of those blessed fans at the concert who will forever be a part of their discography.
amazing!!
Love it! ❤
Damn I was wondering how they might have got that audio, this is indeed awesome!
You can tell they really care about their music
This makes me feel both depressed, euphoric, and hopeful, all at once.
Sounds like fun but feels like the most depressing song I can think of in a modern age
EVERYTHING NOW
Samee
It has such a melancholic vibe, happy and depressing at the same time
Story of our world right now...
In 2015 I was working in an office. I would put my headphones in and listen to arcade fires reflektor over and over and over. It kept me focused on my goal and believing in myself. In July that year I left my job, flew to Canada, travelled around BC, moved to Portland, Oregon, fell in love, met so many inspiring people, came home, studied art, moved to a new city and changed careers. I was so bored before and now life is so interesting. Arcade fire's music always inspires me and makes me feel brave..
Megan River...yehaaaaaaaaar you...😉🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Megan River i watched them live at Glastonbury over and over till it got accidentally deleted .. such class band
😀😀😀
Megan River I guess u have everything now
Megan River You go girl.. In this shit fuck of a world we have built for ourselves.. Inspiration is our rebellion
That piano riff gets lodged in your brain and is almost impossible to get out.
Tell me about it this song has taken over my brain x
The Bee Gees - If I Can't Have You
ABBA
It's easy to play the notes too. Have a go.
ua-cam.com/video/g5WrM0mqOGQ/v-deo.html
4 years later, if you're watching this, you're a legend.
Hey hey 🙌❤
Heard it yesterday on Radio 1, forgot how good it was 👍
Man this album makes so much more sense 4 years later. It took me time to really understand the tyrant that is the infinite content culture and how it can corrupt our lives. Arcade Fire never fail to deliver amazing art, need that new album NOW
July 21
This is so…..it keeps me watching it every couple of days. Mad? No, just a great gig for me I suppose
Listening to this song for the first time I got a sense of nostalgia, almost like I had heard it many times before.
Anyone else get the same feeling?
DGORyan - Gaming Sort of 70's drums and strings
DGORyan - Gaming I had exactly the same feeling.
Absolutely. Start at 0:46 and tell me it´s not ABBA all over it, tweaked and modernized:-)
Supermarx1978 Yupp sounds like ABBA
It's Simple, great Minds think Alive. (And Kicking it.)
Thought this was an 80's song on the radio recently... We need more music like this. Make people feel happy again.
John Sears we need everything now 80’s
It definitely has that 80's twist to it. Like Simple Minds style
Yeah that's it, it reminds me of 80's music but like shit 80's music that I prefer to ignore.
That’s what I said to my mum, but she disagreed
@@theoccasionalbadger8315 what a nice nickname to describe you
This song has dragged me out of some of my worst moods. Every time I listen to this song, it automatically improves everything.
Same here mate
Great song I know who it's about
@@davidlearmont5597 whos it about ?
I would like to know
Like that one time I dropped my sandwich.
Hang in there brother we all have dark days but yeah, this song makes me want to skip in the streets
Listening to this song from the powerful headset with full volume and you are tipsy in this COVID evening alone. Priceless!!!
That’s what I’m doing now lol cheers
Everything in moderation!
You sound like a wanker
Oh hey it’s my people!
Holy hell its true
As far as i'm concerned, these guys are continuing the spiritual and musical legacy of David Bowie, RIP.
Sounds just like a Bowie song ,..Love it
Sounds like Alive and kicking to me
VideoAmericanStyle yup they covered Bowie at lollapalooza. Amazing show
Yeeesssss!
I am almost 60 years old and grew up with Bowie, Roxy, Punk, Split Enz, Crowded House - great bands - and Arcade Fire are up with and equal to those greats!
Stephen and Jan I'm 50 and very sticky
you poor apologist..........saddo
Me too!
Hi Stephen. I'm 62 and engaged with Bowie, Roxy and Mott in my final year at school in 1972. Still play them a lot (almost to the exclusion of all bar the Killers and Arcade Fire). Both bands are up there with the greats we like. This track got me into Arcade Fire and I have bought the back catalogue. I can see why those that have been fans since 2004 don't like this but for me its commercial streak is what I like about it. This and the Reflektor track itself have the uniqueness of Five Years, Virginia Plain, All The Young Dudes.
Pfressi
I've been listening to 'contemporary' music now for 67 years. I never applied the brakes during any particular decade, I just kept listening.
This tune is probably one of the best composed and written, since Pink Floyd did 'Dark Side of the Moon'.
Addendum: the video kicks ass as well.
Yup. 65 this year and this is one of the best ever.
I'm almost 68 and I've done the same thing. I feel sorry for people my age who are stuck on music from the 70s
The best pop/rock song I've heard in ages. I gave up on rock 20 years ago. Maybe this is new hope for rock...
I think this song is just the one. That they made is beautiful none of their other songs are
New War On Drugs and Arcade Fire released on the same day, what a time to be alive! They even manage to pull the flute off.
TarriqIbrahim and Foo Fighters
Really dont' care about the Foos. Liam Gallagher, though.
and lorde, and alt-j and marika hackman!!!!
They've sampled "The Coffee Cola Song" for the flute.
AND RADIOHEAD!
Arcade Fire going for an Abba vibe. Great to have them back!
Abba and Andy Williams "Can't take my eyes off you"
I couldnt remember what it reminded me of..... "Can't take my eyes off you". Spot on!!!
Was working as a cars inspector in brazil, making the checklist and whathever its necessary, marriage already over for both of us, just thinking of how to come to plain it wells to the very end knowing a son with 14"s at that time, ...,it plays it to me in 2017 while testing the radio of a car while working. Felt the urge to dance and sing. Help me to solve things at that time. Years later my son retributied me with this very band. With reflektor playing while droving til the night...bringing me home. Thank you son.
This is one of those masterpieces that would have been loved by any generation in which it was released!
'Every inch of sky's got a star,
Every inch of skin's got a scar.
I guess that you've got everything now.'
Funeral, Neon Bible, The Suburbs, Reflektor and now this. Every album is different, but permanently so deep and intense. All those tremendous tracks. Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels), Neighborhood #3 (Power Out), Intervention, No Cars Go, Rococo, We Used To Wait, Here Comes The Night Time, Normal Person... Every album takes me away and reminds me of several stages in my life. When I was happy, in love, young, a dad, heartbroken, on a trip around the world, grim...
Thanks for being there, Arcade Fire.
kuddos
hear hear 👍😁
Jelle Teitsma every album brings something different and I love it
Jelle Teitsma k
so awesome, arcade fires the best
The first thing I thought when I heard this song randomly on the radio was, "is this a previously unreleased mid-80s Bowie number?". This is fantastic!
WizFizz totally agree.the best song that's been released in ten years easy
same!
This song is pure art.
This song has everything..melody, story, instruments, cinematography, soul, people, feelings, emotions, love, tears, smiles, memories..
now
It has everything now
This song makes me cry every time I hear it.
Hope I get to hear this one live at least once :(
Amazing fantastic greats and hunks from belgica🌼😷
🌼🌈
Win and his "woo's!" are back in my life!
one of the best parts!
Amy Earthling Finally someone noticed that!!!
Amy Earthling yes! I'm always listening for the woo's!
My body is a cage
Arcade Fire, Foo Fighters, Alt-j and Radiohead in just 2 days. I don't know what virtual life is this but I don't want it to stop...
Solomon Stefan and Liam Gallagher 😭😂
Bowie died so I guess the music gods have to compensate us in that sense
My god, what a great song. I"m a lifetime ABBA fan, and everytime I hear an echo of them in a contemporay song, it"s pure joy.
30 years from now poeple will be asking to play this tune Because it’s a Classic trust me . I’ll be 77 years old
I will be 101 in 30 yrs I'm 71 now lol lovely song xx I'm still young at heart stay safe
I´ll be there with you my friend, of the same age
Next 30y at the 59 I don't think i'll survive but If I do.. i will be here. 💜
Jesus year old
I'll be 45
This song man. Forget Despacito. THIS is my summer song.
Exactly!
I have a feeling you're going to be very right!
FUCK YEAH MAN!!!!!
Despacito sucks.
despacito is nowhere near this
Only Arcade Fire could pair such a rapturous uplifting melody with lyrics of lip-curling disgust and disdain for our awful world
Bob Blackadder amen! Everyone who is whining about how horrible it is and the lack of "originality" is COMPLETELY missing the point
Bob Blackadder awful world? You mean reality past present future this song time warped me to different stages in my music fanatic humanoid self from the time I turned 9 listening to ABBA to 15 when your brain can't get enough to read from Stephen King to Steinbeck to Hermann Hesse to 22 studying film history and watching a Tarantino film for the 1st time to 35 and reviewing my CD collection, music, comic, book, rock and roll memorabilia with the future love of my life...to current 47 missing mom and dad who are long past.. then thinking I'm one step from falling into the cliff of hoarding diseases struggling with what can't part with...sad world indeed but it's reality no matter how beat and old my music collection is I cannot live without it...we spend our time searching for other intelligent life form in the night sky... this song is amazing
YES!! I don't understand how this is going over so many people's heads!
He even says "and every song that I've ever heard is playing at the same time it's absurd"...
Bob Blackadder Too many people forget that as awful as the world is, it has its shining moments, it has beauty, it has happiness. Every time has its problems, and ours is no exception. There will always be issues that tear us apart, but there are just as many things that will bring us together. When people pay attention to the little things, the things that make you smile, the things that envelop you in a sense of wonder and amazement, you can see the beauty in life and the world. Sorry that sounded really cheesy, it just makes me sad to see people say the world is an awful place. I just want to remind people that as bad as things seem right now, humanity will prevail.
Arcade Fire changed my life, specifically this song, when my dad played it for me in the car and got obsessed with it. I don't know what'd I'd be without them..
This song is just a massive masterpiece. Telling us we don't need the constant striving to get more of materialistic things that won't make us happy. We could learn by the innocence and naivety of youth. Just to enjoy what's around us. The kids in the shopping trolley and roller skates giving support to eachother to keep going. When he speaks of his dad and his voice cracks.
The last lines , his heart filled with something he'll never start, the ashes of everything now.
To me the ashes are memories of people he's lost or don't see anymore through episodes of life. He has good intentions to change things for the better but the present gets in the way and the past is too painful, he can't chuck them away. This is what I get anyway.
beautiful
So true
Happiness is temporary but joy is forever
@@vslurk happiness is joy
Materialism has worked for me so far.
giving me some strong "can't take my eyes off of you" vibes
Completely, my second thought after the dancing queen thing. Lack of inspiration from these guys... :(
Diego Sésar de Hoyos nah. You just don't like it.
Hailey B. Nah, you don't have a point. I don't like Mozart either and I would never dare to say he lacked inspiration. I like Muse and I know their inspiration is below ground level. This song is just a mash of others.
Every song that I've ever heard
Is playing at the same time, it's absurd
I relate so much to this part of the lyrics it hurts:
And every film that you've ever seen
Fills the spaces up in your dreams
[...]
Every inch of space in my heart is filled with something I'll never start
Thank you Arcade Fire, thank you. Another beautiful, melancholic yet uplifting song.
Me too! :-)
x3
bitch you like 14, tf you mean
I read this exactly as it played in the background
Thank you for taking a few minutes of happiness out of me in these dark times I'm going through. This song is everything.
Chin up, and stay safe my man👊😎
Sending love I hope ur feeling better
The future is unwritten
Checking back in a few months later. Hope you’re doing better dude
@@mrmichaelfriedman Hey! I'm doing ok. They say time is your best ally and that's true. Hope you guys are doing well also and thanks for the encouragement!
I haven't heard a tune like this since the 80's. This might be the best song ever.
Same. I thought this was a Bowie song from the early 80's and had been searching around for it after hearing it on the finale of HBO's Crashing.
@@hansonel THANKYOU! Couldn’t remember where I heard this (show wise).
It’s truly a good’un 🎧🖤
Whats happened to them
Just. Sure.
I could live just on this song's energy and one blueberry smoothie per day.
let's throw a joint in there for fun
I would get the runs even with some added banana fiber.
I love Arcade Fire. They make me want to be a better person.
I'm sure they'd be very honoured by that comment :)
OMG meeeee toooo
your a star 💚
Best comment ever. Yep.
just kill everyone
A unique song, makes me want to dance but also cry
Everything Now is seriouslly one of the 2010's greatest albums and most uderrated too! This is a perfect introduction to it, but We Don't Deserve Love is the best one
The more I listen, the more I like it. Aside from Funeral (I mean GD, what an album), every Arcade Fire record has been like this for me- a slow process of admiration until it becomes obsession. I started listening to The Suburbs once a week- about 2 years after it was released. That's how AF rolls though- their music sinks into your soul if you give them time.
Same here dude, the first time I heard this song I was very meh about it, now I love it.
Same here! Saw them live a week ago and they blew me away, without knowing a single song. Every song my admiration for them grows stronger, goddamn musical geniuses.
It can take months to appreciate a good album or song. The first time Sprawl II (Mountains beyond Mountains) came on the Arcade Fire shuffle, I remember where I was when I was driving. Ever since then, it's been a journey with these crazy canoocks
SNike Snover took me weeks to get onto aha shake heart break, after sex on fire😪 he turned into that Irish prick
Great review of their albums and them as a group. Some of the songs are slow burners that grow and grow the more you hear them.
im crying... this is too beautiful
Kristus är vår Frälsare, Halleluja don't need to be a hater or a idiot. He's feeling the song. This is so beautiful. I'm also crying, my grandpa passed today and this song is emotional, sad and happy at same time..
Kristus är vår Frälsare, Halleluja peace to you ❤️✌️
Chejo boi shut yo sensitive ass up
Chejo nevermind i just cried
If you think the is beautiful then you will love videos of seals being eaten by polar bears.
This album means so much to me because it came out the year my father died after a long fight with cancer. I lost myself in the album, but this song was always special. I played it over and over to help get me through.
5 years later: I come home from work the other day to hear the piano playing...my 9 year old son (who's been playing piano since age 4) is playing Everything Now. He learned to play it because he knew how much I loved it.
I nearly lost it - with soggy eyes I hugged the boy. He and I can't explain how much Arcade Fire means to us.
The guy's an abusive beast, he always had a weird sweaty vibe anyway.
@@drumgold23 You know...when you first wrote this, I didn't know what you were talking about. I weirdly thought it was about me. I was like, "how does he know I sweat so much?!" And then today I finally read the news about Win....
Wow!!! Just found this song two days ago and have been listening to it all the time! How beautiful is this?! Probably one of my favorite songs now!
dude be playing the shit out of that flute , you go man .
its a guys voice, now u know this, it wil be as clear as day 😉🔥
Steven Morrow it's actually both. They even show a guy playing it.
its taken from an african musician called francis bebey. Listen to 'coffee cola'
David Bowie would be proud!!!!
So would ABBA.
Yeah, I call this one DANCING QUEEN PART 2
There were some ABBA songs in the pre-show mix in Chicago as well.
I love arcade fire they should so proud of music they've given us
This is possibly the most important song written in our time, of our time, and for all human time...when will we realise that the same emotions that start petty arguments are the same emotions that start genocide...and all we can do is...keep buying😔
That's so weird. I was browsing randomly through bands on UA-cam and hadn't hear Arcade Fire in quite a while, so decided to look them up to see if they had released anything new, and I see they released a new video just 51 minutes ago xD Excellent timing
Anders Kock haha that's great! that's exactly what happened to me with twenty one pilots' first single off their last album!
Right there is some Godly being guiding you towards the right kind of music....it was destiny I tell you....or maybe that's just me (a fan for the past decade)
Have you hever heard of synchronicity ?
OMG -- That's a sign!
it happened exactly the same to me, nice timing
I love this song. It made me cry. Truth does that
Every inch of space in my heart is filled with something I'll never start
What an absolute masterpiece
Well done, UA-cam! It starts with IKEA commercial and ends with "every room in my house is filled with shit I couldn't live without".
Martin Roemer 😂😂
Time for some Adblock dude
How long does it take people to discover AdBlock? You must be a Chrome user...
UA-camrs can't control those kind of ads, what's got one to do with the other?
+Rainer-Wilfried Kasuppke When content is free it either means someone is hosting at a personal cost, which is unlikely in most cases, otherwise we pay with the ads. UA-cam ads really aren't bad, they're just a video, much better than the "OMFG YOUR PHONE/COMPUTER IS ABOUT TO EXPLODE BECAUSE VIRUS!!!!! DOWNLOAD SHADY CLEAN NOW!!!!?!??!?!!!" things that can pop up browsing the internet.
Everyone listening think they are hearing another song they've heard before, but can't put their finger on it. Some hear ABBA, some Frankie Valli and others The Beegees, But in the end it's a Nostalgia song and that's the point and you can feel it! How genius it is to pull this off as they always do. To mix up sorrow, nostagia, joy on a piece that's about a reflexion of the new vs the old ways. That's what Arcade Fire is for those who get it, this indescribable cathartic experience through nostalgia and joy in a rithmic expression that i've seldom experienced with another band. It's almost spiritual.
I have to stop myself from singing "At long last love has arrived, and I thank God I'm alive..." Nostalgia song is right.
You should write for Rolling Stone. 😏
It does have that ABBA and beegee feel to it but it's absolutely fabulous. These guys are incredible!
Wow!!! Well said!!
reflexion is not a real word.
this song makes me nostalgic, it reminds me of when the world wasn't crazy
Yeah, about 1997? Since then it's been a never ending 5hitfest.
This song is about the downfall of humanity, not nostalgia.
@@danm9390 I know. its just that this song also makes me think of my childhood
This band just knows how to pull at your heart strings!!!
I love this song! Sounds like the 80's come back for us. For the youngers who love the 80's Music!
Manuel Solis Marquez 70's..... the 70's come back!!!
Manuel Solis Marquez this has to be the best song since are freinds electric
Yes.....it sounds like The Associates musically, and even Billy McKenzie's vocal! It's brilliant.
Joe Allison I was thinking more Alive and Kicking/Simple Minds
Vincenzo TV thank you exactly!!!!!!
I can just hear Bowie's voice singing this with you.... :(
I bet he's hearing this from the stars above!
Now that you mention it, I can definitely see him performing this
David Bowie is dead.
@@toriless no shit, sherlock
Lovely sentiments 💚💜
lol as ive been looking for this song from months, my mind was convinced its a bowie tune so always searched his songs.
I didn't think a band could be so diverse, ground breaking sounds and so unique that was talking heads for me. No one band has come anywhere close for me, till I heard arcade fire, that's a big shout from me but I firmly believe that's how good arcade fire are. For me to mention them in the same sentence as the heads tells you how brilliant they are👍💟
We love talking heads here too. Byrne and Butler are both absolute geniuses
I mean i love this album but would we even have it without remain in light??????
This song still hits as hard as it did when it first came out amazing with how much time and events have happened a car wreck a move to a new house and a marriage last year and getting ready for another move
I'm 63 years old. I think that this is incredible, awesome and very cool.
Good music is now. Always.
You're not alone Ace. I'm 62 and I'm sitting here digging on it too. Lol
No matter your age, keep rockin’ on everyone! 🤘
ParaBreakdown good music knows no age my friend
I am 48 and I have loved Arcade Fire and alt rock for ages, but I only love the first 45 secs of this song. The rest has been done by a band called ABBA in the 70s. Rehashing is fine when you spin something new on it but lately Arcade Fire seems out of ideas. A freaking shame.
Am 61...recall how unique and edgy Talking Heads were when they arrived in 1976....this band has the same impact. It's very difficult to create a unique, fresh, sound. This band is phenomenal.
Yes, this tune definitely reminds me of some of the 1980's era like Talking Heads, Big Country, REM, Waterboys, and Talk Talk. Arcade Fire really are among the very few genuine unmanufactured talented bands in extant modern pop music. I think Sam Fender and the Wombats are other gems in this tiny category. Everything Now - a beautiful song and melody for the summer.
And this is no coincidence...kudos to you~
Laura Millard I completely wholeheartedly agree!!!
I am even older (63) and I wholeheartedly agree.
The last thing they are is original....so 80s aztec camera...lightning seeds...simple minds rip off.
This videoclip is premonitory. It's everything now, July 2020, in whole world.
+ 2021. Prepare. 👍✌
Every Arcade song in turning into everything right now in 2020
You mean like covid?
@@lisa.user-xm7kz2tb6x What's going to happen in 2021 that we have to prepare for?
Where have I been till now? Arcade Fire is the kind of music I was looking for more of.
I'm crying my eyes out, and the video is not over yet. Blessed be Arcade Fire
I love everything about this song! Everything brings back the joy and the tears. A fusion of ABBA, David Bowie, Bee Gees, and specially Yvonne Elliman's "If I Can't Have You" ♡ Really love the voices, music, video and lyrics!!
Had to believe that it's a song made in 2017!
When I heard it driving in my car, I thought it was a cover of If I can’t have you! You are right, my friend.
I listen to all types of genres of music and I haven’t been very impressed with most of the new music from the past 10 years, but for some reason arcade fire sounds different and almost original from everything else out these days, just a great band and hope they don’t change their style of music
wow that is an interesting analysis!
Que buen gusto tienes.
The flute is from Coffee Cola Song by Francis Bebey and was played by his son for this recording.
Thanks, I had no idea it was from another song

Thank you Arcade Fire for yet again producing a song that stirs the heart. Up there with your very best.
Cries in spanish 😭
I have laughed , smiled , cried , danced and totally lost myself to this song . Kicks me straight in the feels every time . It has everything
I just realized this song sounds like something Abba would've produced, with a hint of Paul Simon
Agreed! The song reminds me of ABBA every time I listen to it!
Yeah sprawl pt 2 from the suburbs has an ABBA feel to it as well
Totally ABBA so much .
Arcade fire did well what most decent bands do; take the best bits from artists of the past, mix them up and re work them in to something slightly different.
And a sprinkle of Bowie!
after a 13hour night shift, this is what i play to relax. Wish I had found earlier.
Thank you for your genius, 4 years worth waiting. This is gorgeous.
It was about time..... pure unadulterated genius nonetheless
Sebastian Suarez you right
Yes, genius way to promote chemtrail awareness!
will I see you on the other side we all got things to hide.
My favorite band of all time releases yet another incredible masterpiece... there is hope in the world
Unfortunately Reflektor wasn't a masterpiece like their previous albums before.
Disagree. Afterlife is awesome.
Reflektor is my favorite album of theirs lmao
Bormr
It was too cheesy for my liking, for example, You Already Know.
How have I never heard this song until today? I have literally had it on repeat all afternoon.. when a song gets me .. it really gets me .. and this has got me hooked line and sinker
Rob and me heard it a couple of days ago by the way Clayton was my mum's maiden name x
Muchas gracias por la canción. Me hizo recordar muchas cosas de mi niñez, despertó ese espíritu soñador y creyente que habita en mi, muy buena para escuchar y levantar el ánimo, dan ganas de luchar y seguir adelante.
Sisisi
Estoy totalmente de acuerdo contigo...si señor.....hay q seguir adelante....!!!!!
There is nothing more subversive you can do in 2017 than love and accept yourself openly, honestly and unconditionally. You are living in a world that is selling you your own ego for your Heart and astonishingly good at convincing you that you actually identify and relate to all of the nonsense that surrounds you! I dropped out of highschool in 2005 with the intention of "saving the world", ended up couchsurfing in Bloomington, Indiana and staying at a house known as the Mekong Delta where members of the band Everything, Now! frequented/lived. Their energy, passion and performance inspired me to be a musician, I returned to Chicago after a month and have been on a mission ever since. Sold out the Beat Kitchen in 2008 with a band called Anchors, Balloons, opening for Everything, Now! -- Dream come true, but they honesty couldn't care less about our music, and I never related to our fans.. Dissolved the band, started again with five of the same members and a year later performed with Everything, Now! in Muncie Indiana as Be Our, and Crafty hugged us. He loved it. That was one of the single most validating moments of my young life at that point -- When we broke up the original band we lost all our fans, they were so pissed but I just couldn't relate to people who liked our music more than we did -- I knew we were better, we weren't pushing it. We lost the fans but the artists I met over the years loved the new music, Arcade Fire seem to be just trying to save the world too and if Merge can see that light, and hell the Grammy's saw that light, I truly believe this world isn't as fubar as everyone seems to believe it is -- Being Here Now is REAL, CHANGE IS REAL; You can BET that in 2004 the last thing I ever thought was that these kids would end up on the cover of Rolling Stone and win best album at the Grammy's, They Are Doing It And You Can Too -- We have been primed to live in a constant state of fear and insecurity; we have attached ourselves so firmly to our subconscious and our ego that we had might as well be living in a delicate bubble, secretly obsessing over what would happen if “everything changed” instead of simply changing everything, caught spinning within a restless state of disconnect and quiet desperation. The simplest example of this misunderstanding is that we buy things we don’t need! Our subconscious is attempting to fill a void within us that could only ever be temporarily filled by a material objects. Eventually we need newer things, more things, different things, better things. We think that money will make us happy, or make things “easier”, but to move forward entirely we must understand and finally see this as an absolute fallacy. It is an illusion our subconscious has manifest to keep us trapped within our ego, and it is the greatest schism the leaders of the modern world have created between its populace and enlightenment.
unconditional love, duh
Yes! Love and accept yourself and everyone you come in contact with in that way. You won't succeed at first, but you can't give up. The evil you see in the world is also in you, that's how you can recognize it. That's how "the world" can "sell you your own ego for you Heart" (brilliant statement!). Once you admit that to yourself, you realize that it's your job to change how you treat the people in your life first and foremost, and you can release the weight of the world that's on your shoulders. Being raised on superhero stories has convinced us that it's our job to change/save the world. When, in reality, it's a convenient escape from dealing with our own personal problems. The only problems that we can solve. Everything is a distraction from your broken heart. Figure out that your heart is broken and why it is broken, and that's when you can start to heal. That's the beginning of a new life.
It will be twelve years ago this October that I have dropped out of the Public Education System in the United States Of America with the genuine, earnest wish within my heart that I might actually be able to deconstruct my understanding of this place we call Home and somehow help create a world free from the allegorical shackles that bind its collective heart and mind so. Twelve years later I find myself at a crux of sorts; so many musical projects later, performance pieces to save the World, an overloaded social media project confronting (what I refer to as) Functioning Schizophrenia In Western Culture And The Nature Of Our Inherent Incapacity To Earnestly Dissolve Attachment Whilst Engaging A Personal Avatar In The Digital Paradigm, thirty-one open letters to Humanity, a bicycle trip that lead me across the country, periods of extreme loneliness met by sometimes violent misunderstanding from peers, a failed Post Modern Recovery Program, a failed crowd-funding campaign for non-profit Art collective Who Gave These Animals Art Supplies?, a yearlong life houseless in the woods, an artist residency and work trade program on an organic farm on Oahu, a year of isolation in my grandparent's basement writing a 185,000 word disaster that I tricked myself into believing was somehow my Magnum Opus, a trip to inpatient rehabilitation for a penchant for Chronic Depressive Disorder and a Love-affair with alcohol and Dextromethorphan, and so many more seemingly surreal and profoundly enlightening, sometimes tremendously volatile experiences have led me to the age of twenty-nine, and, as made evident to me by many, left me with little-to-nothing to show for it, if not the occasional arguably depressive or even manic episode. Or at least, that would be one way to look at it, maybe I'm just autistic, who knows. From a very young age I have been concerned with the repercussions of the actions taken by the culture I grew up within and the energy our common denominator spends suppressing and repressing even the most basic cause and effect realities of our world. I found that as I grew up and left home, I remained incapable of behaving in the manner the majority (it seemed) of my culture might expect, and actions such as the creative process/expression and simply even living outside more common or conventional standards was received as hyperbolic or at least radical. Being told this enough times I even began to relate to this idea of my self being somehow severe or focused somehow too primarily on looking inward -- after all, the root of the word radical is the Latin radix, which in mathematics means base and in biology refers to the portion of the plant (the literal root) that pulls sustenance from the soil, from Mother Earth. In this way I see the creative process as quite literally exposing that which lies underneath, that which lives within. I believe the internal world has been largely repressed over the course of the past several thousand years; that its very existence has been suppressed if-not lambasted as a sort of illusory construct -- somehow less relevant than the external. It is the external world that I personally find illusory and attachment to it valueless, and the internal that I hold in highest esteem. It is partially for this reason that I create, and why, for me, it is unignorable that each and every given individual is a creator in every sense of the idea. The modern construct and majority opinion of Art can be a dangerous, sometimes atrocious misrepresentation of everything that truly holds value. Art is all, and Art is none; it is no different than what we refer to as God, Wisdom, Love, Understanding or Connection. These ideas are merely placeholders, a key to a gateway toward internal discovery -- and it is each and every human's personal responsibility to engage their reality with magnanimous, peerless curiosity and selfless creativity. It is near heartbreaking for me to interact with so many peers earnestly convinced that they are somehow not an artist, that they are not talented, as-if Art were some objective reality or construct with very serious laws and rules. In this way a child's innate sense of Curiosity, Creativity and Wonder is broken; the teacher - a broken child, the guru - a confused adolescent -- every individual who believes they can teach you something about how to properly or objectively express yourself must seriously be questioned with an open heart and clarity of mind. Should we not wonder if a culture whose majority populace is earnestly convinced the almighty and sacred Fine Art(s)-- the esteemed collection of monetized creation that so-oft appears available only to those with the privilege of affording the luxury of Time and the proper currency to peak in through the window of a gallery -- whom often believe that artists are somehow separate from them or perhaps born with an innate undeniable talent, might simply just be mistaken? I wish I was a prodigy, I wish I could play the piano, I wish I could paint, draw, cook like that, feel that way, express myself through any craft, be someone else. Any earnest virtuoso requires only the slightest bit of admiration before divulging that the secret to their talent is Persistence, Practice, Patience, and Faith in their own potential. Feel free to apply this to any and all of the most refined of crafts -- courage is required to find the tenacity to trust one's sense of curiosity over that of previously established societal mores, norms, values, ideas, as well as the collection of our own individual memory tapes stuck up within our subconscious that we have been primed to play on loop since our childhood. I suppose what I am getting at is that, for me, Art Is Dead; it is We whom is Alive, and I believe it is the discourse that Art has the power to foster that has lead every major movement and revolution in what we refer to as recorded history. Creation itself is living, it is breathing; We Are It. We are the Art of the Cosmos; the environment waking itself up and recognizing what a surreal, impossibly beautiful job it has done -- and, believe it or not, it was never any work at all, it was always fun. Too much time is spent in our world by creators who are convinced they are not creators, imbibing Art (whether that be Music, Mixed Media, Film, Literature, Fine Art, Video Games, etc.) that others have monetized, that often supports a paradigm of misunderstanding and arguably violence. Slowing down and going within is long past due, and most certainly an important step in Humanity finding its way upon this treacherous path of industrialized fear-defined profit margins we often succumb to out of the sake of our own personal desire for distraction. You, the reader, are the creator. You manifest your reality in every waking moment, on a measurable, scientific, provable level. Your actions and even your thoughts have a profound, tangible, measurable affect on everything in your universe. It is time for us to accept our role as creators and our responsibility and obligation to our world before it is entirely unjustifiable to raise our own families within it. I left School twelve years ago concerned that the most important dream I could ever muster in this life would be to become a father, simultaneously terrified I would remain incapable of justifying bringing a child into a world of sometimes severe economic and societal fear and critical cultural misunderstanding. Along my journey I discovered a light within myself that I had long forgotten, the very same light that resides within us all. It is your Art that is Worth More than anything else imaginable, and it could never be anybodies responsibility but your own to have the faith to trust it and that it will ultimately be understood.
"The evil you see in the world is also in you, that's how you can recognize it." Yes, absolutely. The best we can do is recognize that we ALL have it within us to do harm or good. No one is perfect and that's okay. Once we can forgive and be kind to ourselves, that's when we can begin to grow love, and share with our closest ones - then and only then can that love ripple outward and effect real, lasting change upon the world at large.
sounds like you're ready to read books like The Art of Being Free, by James Poulos. www.amazon.com/Art-Being-Free-Tocqueville-Ourselves/dp/1250077184/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1496960549&sr=1-1&keywords=james+poulos+art+of+being+free or you could take your Tocqueville and Pascal straight. Cause' I have a feeling you're gonna need it! Love that second sentence of yours here...CS
I'm getting a late 1970s Bowie vibe from this
the song is to david bowie
Laurent Beziz this is just so true it makes me sad
Ryan Morro could you be more specific?
HYBRID ABBA/ROXY MUSIC/DONNA SUMMER/ SYLVESTER THAT MAKES YOU WANT TO JUMP UP IN A BAPTIST CHURCH MUSICAL REVIVAL AND DANCE THE HALLELUJAH JIG RIGHT ABOUT A LITTLE BEFORE THE LALALALALALA
theresa guzman goddamn shit, you felt Sylverter here? damn right!
Haven’t heard this song for a few years and literally just heard the tune in the background tv as football is on and the nostalgia just hit me 😫
Ah that was on after the Ukraine game - that's exactly why I'm watching this video now too!
It's coming home
@@nscsc get out 😂
Ditto
God this song goes so hard
Everyone wants Everything Now. that's the society we live in today.
I LOVE this song so much, I have it on repeat and follow the weird humorous tweets/messages they post on instagram, facebook and twitter!
And we can have it, so we don't appreciate it. I remember listening to the radio for hours hoping to hear a favorite song again, driving downtown to rent indie movies from the specialized store, even just knowing that if you wanted to know what happened on your favorite show, you had to come back next Thursday at 10 PM. Now, you can get it all on demand from your couch, the moment you can think it up. In some ways it's a lot better, but you don't appreciate or anticipate things in the same way.
The War on Drugs + Arcade Fire made this a very good day.
Also, these guys have NO bad songs on their catalog.
*I KNOW! RIGHT?*
I'm in an extasy right now! So happy.
Satanás and Foo Fighters
Lorde says hi
thi one?
Satanás right!!
A underrated song
Underrated song??? With nearly 29 million views??? Don’t think so!!!
I’m 66 and first time I heard of the band their single keep the car running , liked them ever since, nice, fresh , and a joy to listen to
"I pledge allegiance to everything now" is absolutely my go-to pickup line.
just when I thought I have heard most of what music has to offer, I then came across Arcade Fire, and I now know I am foolish to have ever thought that.
I just for the 1st time heard of this band, and I find them refreshing with a different meaning in my life as I'm walking during the middle ages of my life👏💯☆
Rudy Avila , welcome aboard. They truly are amazing. "No Cars Go" is one of my favorites. "Everything Now" is REALLY good.
No Cars Go The Suburbs
Horace Wong Suburban War
arcade fire practicing social distancing since 2017
You’re right! 😂😂😂

Just one of the many Canadian bands that fly under the radar in the US.
this piece of art has everything. And it still has it now.
i love the flute.

This one time, at band camp...
This song is a MASTERPIECE! In 30 years time this will be a classic!
nah generally a song has to be good to be a classic
bewmdogg why are you here if you don’t like the music?
If there *will* be 30 years from now, as is the point of the song...
This song was co-produced by Thomas Bangalter (Former Daft Punk’s member) and the fact that his style suit this song is unthinkable. I hope he consider to do more this kind of collaboration in the future tho he split up with his friend
That is so cooool to know. Thank you for that info!!!!
Co produced by Pulps Steve Mackey who sadly passed away today 😔
This is just one of those songs that implants itself in your brain.Fooo kin Fabulous
Thank you Arcade Fire. Your art is one of the best thing in my life right now. I just love how I feel when I put some of your record, it's like instant teletransportation to another place, where everything is alright. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for following your dreams and become this amazing, incredible band.
absolutely nothing these guys put out is bad or even mediocre....i wanna hug this song. I don't mind waiting 3 years for each release if it's gonna be this good!
This song makes me believe in music again
amen to that!
Cuando escuché por primera vez pensé que era una música de los 80’s.
Es del año 2017 y sigue sonando en 2023. 🔊🎵
Same 😀
I feel nostalgia and vibes of crying with this song. wonder why?
