15 years. Wow. Still fresh.

Props on filming in ZELLERS. Thank you Emily Haines/Last Gang Records for being a part of making Canadian music fresh again. I have a huge amount of respect for what the record label is trying to do for Canadian music (I am forever in debt).

I have been trying to find this music for over a decade now. I've had dreams about it. And I finally fuc×ing found it!!!!! ❤ you have no idea how happy this makes me! ❤

I actually think this video enhances the song, which is so rare.

After several years, hare I am. Still love the song.

Imagine finding out that your favorite band’s side project is somehow even better than their already incredible music.

She's gorgeous. And her songwriting makes me cry... amazing voice, amazing talent.

Loved this since the first time I heard it. Like a one woman Radiohead. Incredible.

Loved this song and video years before I was prescribed SSRIs and boy does Emily nail it ……. where my Paxil People at!

Love and appreciate this album a lot but it’s mega depressing if you want it to be.

Anytime I miss Zellers I put this on

She has such a cool voice. I love it. I can't help listening to her songs over and over.

This song and video will always be so nostalgic to me. 💖

R.I.P. Zellers

For years (~15 or so ) I have been looking for this song, heard first it on a movie about clowns I believe (?) It was one of the first lyrics I for which i started to hear this kind of soft - low - melancholic music

I always feel like crying when I finally find a song I've been looking for for years lol. I used to listen to this band when I was in primary school and heard almost all their songs...it's been a while since I listened to them. I'm even in university now🥴

Ohhhh Her voice is heavenly

Pretty much a classic at this point

this song is just perfect... first time hearing and looping for a long time...

This is the anthem of the opioid crisis

emily haines is beautiful, and so is this song. i love it.

What a song

one of the most beautiful songs EVER written !!

its funny, i get that exact same feeling whenever im in a department store - theres this bizarre, overwhelming sense of suffocation and death. lives leading nowhere but round the next corner, toward the next purchase. i cant even go to the mall, its too much.

I was 5 years old when you posted this comment lol. anyways it’s probably bc you can sense the children that are manufacturing this product and dying from stress and being overworked to death.

Truly is poetry... fantastic

I really love this.

This was uploaded 14 years ago... holy shit I'm old.

great song

i fucking love emily haines i have been a fan for 6 years now

that is exactly related to the comment I was about to make. I love the atmosphere of this video and there is definitely a weird feeling one can get by watching this video. I was wondering if anyone knew any other videos with this atmosphere. Music videos or movies.

Been looking for this for years!!! All I remember when I first watched this was thinking she is totally schizophrenic

RIP Zellers

ZELLERS!!!!

2:02 was absolutely amazing. very horror movie-esque.

Kind of funny how easy it is to make a modern day department store look dystopian just by playing a song in a minor key while showing you around the store 😅

Thats such a good video.

I like listening to this song laughing in the fetal position

OMG ZELLERS 😮😅

I used to go to zellers all the time when I lived in Canada

dear god emily haines is beautiful.

Favorita

This song is actually beautiful :')

you definitally gotta listen to her lyrics before watching her vids. she rules

i love this :) cant wait to see her in LA with metric :)

This song and video is about the use and, subsequent misuse, of prescription medications. Everybody falling like dominoes ended up dabbling, yet no one ever notices. Because the prescriptions are always there. Others sold them for a wage, yet still ends up in the line falling like a domino.

Actually, according to Emily herself, it's about her (former?) crippling fear and anxiety of going into all-night pharmacies at night. The song itself might be what you said (the lyrics don't support the fear angle), but Emily was interviewed about the video and gave the anxiety angle as the inspiration for the video.

Maybe HD version some day?

Good old Zellers :D

GO CANADA!

2:38 wow

I can't believe UMG tagged this when it is on her record company's channel.

ahaha thats awesome you must know a lot of people :| and iam definitely going to try it sometimee: D

you know what i hate, is when a bunch of ppl make a line behind me and i have to knock them over like dominos

it's about how people can't understand people feeling lonely... pills seem to be the answer to everytihng nowadays.

anything emily does is good by me.

The song is about the abuse of prescription meds. Video says this by implying everyone from doc to pharmacist to everyone who willing takes them are ALL to blame (that's why she's knocking em down like dominoes."

yup, the red lines in the store give it away

Now thats unfair. We don't have a Zellers in Scotland to play people dominos in...Oh well Asda will have to do. Got to say I really love this song though.

if that happened to me in the store I would just start stealing everything

This is a great video, maybe not as great as Our Hell, but excellent nonetheless.

hermunge! lol, nice name

Club Zed points...OF DOOM!

If you knock somebody down who's at the front of a line, people will fall down like dominoes. And you better run the hell out of there, cuz it will be frightening. :)

You were ahead of your time.

I have a purse like that...

you play people dominos in zellers??

hahahaha

Antipsiquiatría

Not if you have someone good to fall into. Haha.

wouldnt that hurt??

I hate when you're just going in for some tylenol and then this happens.

@DiniGabbyFan The queensberry version is more similar to the original Metric version. Personally, I find the Queensberry version sucks all the meaning out of it.

haha,that guy fell down in the womens underware section

You obviously have lots of anger o_O You should talk to someone about that...

Seriously I'm pretty sure that's a Zellers, lol.

"GREAT BRANDS GREAT PRICES" above the door when she comes in. Definitely a Zellers. Emily is Canadian after all, and Zellers is a piece of Canadiana.

awesome song, wack video...

i declare. it's cheating to make songs under drugs. it just is. i declare and i am right.

Another generation 🙄 over prescribed...

I prefer the version by Queensberry

@thecharismaticvoice I think you’d appreciate this
