I think I like hearing Emily speak just as much as I like hearing her sing.

Beautiful cover. It really suits Emily's voice.

Oh my.... thank you 🫶 wish you'd heard this johnboy x

I heard Metric play in Vegas 10 years ago and since then fell in love with their music and the beautiful voice... this band should one of the top bands in the world.

So underrated. I first saw them perform years ago live in a parking lot in London, Ontario, after winning tickets on the radio and I’ve been in love ever since.

About the SUNGLASSES: One of the reasons people generally wear sunglasses for indoor performances is because it makes it easier to concentrate on what they're doing, which is putting on a good show. Less visual stimulus helps people keep their cool and not freak out when put on the spot. If it's not obvious the crazy brightness (and heat, hence the sweat) of studio lights for something being recorded for video would throw just about anyone off. Not hard to figure out people :)

Love these guys. Her voice is so powerful..

Willie Nelson still lives! Why the funeral attire? I joke, great cover.

Bloody fantastic. Now that's doing an old classic justice!

one of my favorite songs.

Awesome Duo!

Wow, I'm weeping!

So soothing

This is a brilliant version. Really love this!

Wow, I love her intimate voice. I'm more used to her belting it our over noisy instrumentation. This is so cool.

Loved it!!! Metric are awesome.

i love it! you are great!

Beautiful song and cover :) Toronto Island born boy here !

Phenomenal cover

the guitar is amazing

I had never heard of Metric nor do I listen to Triple J. I need an upper cut. Her voice is phenomenal and the two together are perfect. Kudos to you all.

Terrific cover, however, it's not really a "Willie Nelson song". It was written by Wayne Carson, Mark James and Johnny Christopher. It was first recorded, separately, by Peggy Lee, Elvis Presley and Gwen McCrea in 1972. Nelson recorded it 10 years later, where his version of the song won the Grammy for Song of the Year in 1982.

So Willie Nelson didn't do it? More accurate to say it's not oirignally willie... I can be pendantic too.

so wait, Always in my mind is the theme song for Splendor in The Grass?

Song finally starts at 1:25

She looks like Kate Hudson with sunglasses on,

It's a song by Johnny Christopher, Mark James and Wayne Carson, not by Willie Nelson. He covered it in 1982, 10 years after Elvis recorded it, after Brenda Lee.

ditto

was this not Elvis' song covered by willie nelson?

How do you explain the guitarist? He's probably blind . . .

Willie covered Elvis

Not the best of Metric.

Wearing the Sunglasses, cause there off their guts. Sounds more plausible.

love metric but didn't love this..

Stop whispering.

I like Metric, and I love the song, but I really didn't like this cover.

Wow! Not good!

Enough of the chitchat, start singing already.

Could this be any more uninspiring.

Love the guitar but not her voice. It was ok.

Can she sing in tune, is that too much to ask?

lol she is sweating out as well, doing jack shit in an air conditioned recording studio..... fair indicator there

What a train wreck.

For some reason, they seem like the most pretentious duet in this "like a version series". I think it's the sunglasses and hat.

i used to work with them and that's not true, these guys started in the late 90's in Canada doing punk and new wave and grew massively but have always written, produced, mixed, mastered... literally done the whole thing themselves including building a label to maintain their independence. i'd look into them a bit more man.

SLEEPY VOICE ....BORING

am i not hearing the same thing other people in these comments are hearing? you’ll hear a better cover than this at your local fuckin karaoke bar. that was absolutely awful.
