Been listening to Arcade Fire. My wife and I both rocked out to this song in the car. I love the lyrics: Some boys hate themselves Spend their lives resenting their fathers Some girls hate their bodies Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback Saying God, make me famous If you can't just make it painless Just make it painless Assisted suicide She dreams about dying all the time She told me she came so close Filled up the bathtub and put on our first record Saying God, make me famous If you can't just make it painless Just make it painless It goes on and on, I don't know what I want On and on, I don't know if I want it On and on, I don't know what I want On and on, I don't know if I want it (On and on I don't know what I want) (On and on I don't know if I want it) (On and on I don't know what I want) (On and on I don't know if I want it) Some girls hate themselves Hide under the covers with sleeping pills and Some girls cut themselves Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback Some boys get too much, too much love, too much touch Some boys starve themselves Stand in the mirror and wait for the feedback Creature comfort makes it painless Bury me penniless and nameless Born in a diamond mine It's all around you but you can't see it Born in a diamond mine It's all around you but you can't touch it Saying God, make me famous If you can't just make it painless Just make it painless It's not painless She was a friend of mine, a friend of mine And we're not nameless, oh It goes on and on, I don't know what I want On and on, I don't know if I want it On and on, I don't know what I want On and on, I don't know if I want it (On and on I don't know what I want) (On and on I don't know if I want it) (On and on I don't know what I want) Well if you're not sure, better safe than sorry Creature comfort, make it painless Creature comfort, make it painless We're the bones under your feet The white lie of American prosperity We wanna dance but we can't feel the beat I'm a liar, don't doubt my sincerity Just make it painless Creature comfort, make it painless Creature comfort, make it painless
I saw Arcade Fire live. A little to hipster-y for my tastes, but I heard that the live shows were amazing. The live show was amazing. Debating going to see Cold War Kids this summer when they are in town, which is kind of in the same vein as AF.
