Whenever i feel sad or bad about myself for whatever reason or just when i have a really bad day and i am a mess, at the end of that day I come back here to this short video and somehow listening to her it lifts my spirit up and makes me feel better. Thank you Emily if you are reading this, you are a true inspiration to me. Your thoughts and music manage to transform my pain into something beautiful! The pain may not go away but it is now different, meaningful yet not ready to fly away, it just hangs there for a bit and it's beautiful.

She's my inspiration. I can't even recall how many times I've watched this. Still gives me chills every time.

I wish more girls had exposure to positive, creative, and real role models like Emily. She's stunningly genuine; genuinely stunning

She is beautiful, innovative and intellectual. Truly a music icon.

Both Metric and Buenos Aires will always have a special place in my heart. Hope you'll be touring Europe soon

I watch this video over and over, especially when I'm in need of inspiration. She's so real and so talented.

It's nice to see that people appreciate her not only for her obvious beauty, but also for her intellect.

This soft version of Help i'm alive needs to be a hidden track or something! it's great! Please come to Buenos Aires again and play here!

que venga a tocar con Metric a Buenos Aires!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She is absolutely amazing.

We'll glad if you come back and give us a concert in Buenos Aires :) Loving Metric.

Buenos Aires is a beautiful city, I can totally see how it could inspire someone to do something amazing.

a si que fuimos el sedante jajajajaja mi pais es hermoso como tu Emily gracias por visitarlo gracias porque sin saberlo estuvimos mas cerca que nunca sin saberlo y eso es hermoso, gracias por admirar nuestra arquitectura y la loca gente que vive aqui en Buenos Aires sin mirarse jajaja en las provicias es muy diferente somos más calidos y hospitalarios que en la capital de Argentina gracias tienes una banda de musicos muy buenos todos feliz vida felices vueltas al sol sobre este lindo planeta Emily :D

She is so amazing and so underrated

Emily is Beautiful, reminds me of Gwen Stefani. I've connected more with their 'Fantasies' work more than their previous work, though to be honest I haven't heard much of the previous, am getting through it all.

great band and shes so well-spoken, articulate and intelligent. nice to see that.

This is one of the nicest and honest documentaries I've seen. Musicians tend to be so overwrought when they talk about their art, so internalized, what they are sharing gets lost in ego and indulgence. What I like about this doc is how direct and straightforward it is - I imagine Emily is much the same - and as such it feels not only true but accessible. Who hasn't felt the same fear when Emily says "I am really scared and I don't know where my life is going ..."

I love this lady. Thank you for writing songs.

this sounds so much more melancholy in comparison to the studio version. They are so fresh and honest, absolutely love them they are just....real.

first song i heard from the band was "help i´m alive" and i fell in love with the band in that moment. I cant believe you wrote that here in Buenos Aires, hey .....ahem, thats another reason to come here to play, please !!! :D

such an inspirational artist and so fucking beautiful, i love u emily haines!

Nice video, nice voice and what a wonderful city!

her voice is so soothing. more so on acoustic. relaxing haha i can fall asleep to her voice. and I mean that in a good way.

@welltoonces It was a interview to inspire others and promote her band. While she was actually on her trip she didn't get people to film her lmfao. She was flown there and scenes were shot for the video. Same as films based on people's lives, they aren't shot as events happen lol. And she left Canada to find that feeling because there are A LOT of people who know her in Canada, whom she didn't want to bother her at the time.

I love this album!! Thanks Emily, i'm glad our country inspired you

I couldn't feel prouder of being argentinian right now. Thanks Emily for coming here :)

Wow. She is amazing. It's really hard to move to a place where you don't know anyone at all but still she's doing well over there.

I think Emily is one of the most talented, coolest and genuine artists/Musicians ...music is not only about "Music Itself" is about a life. feelings, emotion,...when you are a real musician, one that give your life to music and when things are not going in the way u want or u expected, music and your life can be very scary and difficult .... Anyway I wish Emily and Metric the best success and "Fantasies" is their best album yet! Good Luck!!!!!!

Raw, Vulenerable, I love it. Truly an artist. Inspiring. It's amazing how keeping it real, being true to you, you can change the world. Thank you Emily for putting your heart out there. I wish I could meet you someday. Your Fantasies album really hits close to home for me. I glad that I am not alone.

I love this band with all my heart.

Thank you Emily Haines and Metric. Just...thank you.

Thank you for posting this. Beautiful visuals and really enjoyed the personal information and music.

Beautiful! I love the things she says in this video. Describes the way I feel at the moment and the kind of escape and discovery I seek when I travel to other places

This is really inspirational turning your unhappiness into a piece of art is incredible

Very proud of the music made in my hometown of Buenos Aires. I can't believe Metric's biggest record has its roots there. Metric, Invisible, La Maquina de Hacer Pajaros, Vox Dei, Los Abuelos de la Nada and many others wrote classics in CABA!

this video inspires me as a writer. especially when she talks about simplicity.

La amo lo y tambien sus canciones

que linda que es buenos aires , te amo

you have the most unique voice and i love your songs. there better than anyone elses!

i love this! i listen to it as if it were a song.

I just see that you were in Buenos Aires... now the trains are better haha... I die for you to come to play for these lands... the audience is the best

i find her absolutely enthralling and her music is really very good.

i love her!!

i am in love. complete love.

Cómo que llegue diez años tarde jaja

How gorgeous! Beautiful and brilliant! She drives me crazy.

@csarito recien leo esto y efectivamente volvio! estuvo con Broken Social Scene en noviembre..increible cuando nos sorprendio a todos en la trastienda

Haha that's EXACTLY what I was thinking, like I wouldn't know whether to approach her or say I think your voice is heavenly and I love your songs and thank you so much for making music... as that's probably the last thing she'd want, to be disturbed by some fan fawning all over her.

Lovely to see Emily in my home town.... I love BA

yep she is my idol

emily haines is amazing

LINDA CANCION .

Las canciones que se escuchan aquí me hace acordar a tiempos de mi vida

beautiful. i'm in love.

she's beautiful, intelligent, inspiring, and i want her dress.

Vulnerable, Tragic, and absolutely Beautiful.

i went through this exact. same. thing. period. I wrote a song as well about it. thanks for sharing your stuff.

I'm glad that you wrote songs in Buenos Aires, you should come and play here ;)

well said people, she is a real beauty i cant get enough.

I love that she is wearing a T. Rex shirt... Imagine the music she and Marc Bolan could've written together, if he were still alive. Shivers.

Buenos Aires ♥

Thank you metric for what you've brought to us. We love your music ^^ Honestly Metric and Vanessa Carlton are what I listen to 90% of the time^^ Nohting else feels all that deep or real or fun (except newboys n toby mac) You're all so cool and now no one can say nothing good has ever come from Canada. (South Park is soooooo wrong lol) I LOVE YOUR MUSIC METRIC!!!!!!!!

Come back ! pleaseee !

That spoke straight through me.

Brilliant! ✨

great vid. very genuine and beautiful.

Help I'm alive ❤ Emily, love your lyrics and music. 🌷🌷

thank you.

@tbmuex that's the great thing about her songs...layers....they just make more and more sense the more you look at them. including near and future apocalyptic scenarios.

Very cool video from a cool band, much love.

Love you Emily, Keep up the good work :)

she is right, doesnt neccesarly had to be buenos aires but when youre in a place you call home everything is easy or becomes boring with the same schedule and you wonder whats next in your life. when you go to a different country and you soak everything in, you get to see how other peoples lives are harder than yours. How other people finds ways to have fun and enjoy life than money or whatever problems you may have. you learn from other people and it inspire you when you realize how lucky you are to even exist and you just want to better yourself when you go back home.

i m a fan !!

girl crush! Metric makes me happy!

It's right what she said. I'm from Buenos Aires and i've never heard about her. but I like it. :)

if i was in Buenos Aires and I saw Emily get off of the train... I don't know if I'd pass out or try to say hi.. probably pass out so I could leave her alone in peace so she could do some amazing writing love you emily :)

Wow, i never heard about her...but such a beautiful voice make me google her, (and "ares" her too, xD). Anyway, she seems like a great artist, with deep feelings and emotions. Greetings from B.A

Seems very cool and down to earth

just... i love you

I really want to go to Argentina.

that piano looks exactly like the one that i played on when i was at Escuela Nacional De Musica in Buenos Aires wow wtf

come to play at argentina!!!!!!

@csarito I love how she totally did go back! Around the same time that you wrote this comment actually!

Toronto Rocks!

right now i'm living in Bs As, and she's right...=) amazing place

naaaah!!! no lo puedo creer! y yo seguro en la facultad o laburando (?) bue... grosa emily... lo mas :)

emily i love u

I can't believe that she was living here in my city!!

Is there any chance this exact acoustic version of "Help I'm Alive" sung by Emily in this video will ever be available to buy? I love this stripped down acoustic version so much, it so perfectly matches her sentiments on life when she wrote it...so real.

+Blacksheep01 I prefer their acoustic versions too. I believe their next album is supposed to be acoustic. Can't wait for it to come out.

ya and she went to my high school when she was in high school its a school for the arts like music drama and visual arts

.....ok 'this' video 'finally' shows an reflects her ago of 36 years!! ...often appears like in 20's, but now can 'feel' her connection and reflection in this one on one clip.

oh my...in Buenos Aires, not my city but my country indeed :O hope people were nice to you, come back any time n_n

Thank you for your interesting and enlightening contribution. "Mackdady"... LOL! :)

scared and dont know where your life is going and what youre doing...now that i can relate to.

🎼🎹❤️

i lveot his video. Emily is amazing. Oooooo what kind of boots is she wearing in the beginning of the video?? i love them? does anyone know?

OMG i love this album i thought it was the best yet and she wrote it in buenos aires??? are u kidding me?? so i guess that it is true when people say that argentina is the best place to get away..i mean i live in argentina but..well...many other singers and bands came to write here roxette..julieta benegas...madonna..i can't remember more but there were some more ..nice...

As if I wasn't already in love with her enough...
