What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library

Arcade Fire - Arcade Fire - 2005 - ***



Canadian alt rockers do it for me. Debut EP with only 7 tracks and well worth it. The submarine thing I can't get inot and I prefer the later heavier version of No Cars Go but other than that, top notch stuff. I no longer do the concert thing, but if I did these guys would be on my must see list.

Favorite Track - The Woodlands National Anthem

I guess we'll have to move
The neighborhood is on to us
Let's join the little babe's
throwin' rocks in front of us

Riding on my bicycle
I pass my sister on a bus
Let's take the country road before our parents send for us

Trees keep fallin' at my feet
I guess it's time to build a boat
Make a raft of our bodies
Do you think that it'll float?
What I said was not a joke,
But you just licked the envelope
I'm tired of dating, let's elope
But you just licked the envelope

Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!
Three cheers for my parents,
Lonely failed experiments!

Don't you dare blame my parents
I'm the only failed experiment
Don't you dare blame your parents
You're the only failed experiment
Don't you dare blame your grandparents
Mom's the only failed experiment
Don't you dare blame your grandparents
Dad's the only failed experiment
Don't blame God
Just blame God
