Lyrics :::
Told we could be who we wanted
Or get what we needed, hey yeah
One and the other competing
Over the meaning, hey yeah
Back when I said that I want it all
This wasn’t the point at all
Hostile to that superficial view
Show me something that can’t be bought
It’s harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
When you don’t know if you should fall
If there’d be a net at all
Pleasure gets so easily abused
Show me something that can’t be bought
It’s harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
Hate/Love
And when you don’t want to chase it
But can’t stand to waste it, hey yeah
It’s either rags into riches
Or life in the trenches, hey yeah
Back when I said that I want it all
This wasn’t the point at all
Hostile to that superficial view
Show me something that can’t be bought
It’s harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
When you don’t know if you should fall
If there’d be a net at all
Pleasure gets so easily abused
Show me something that can’t be bought
It’s harder to do than I thought
False dichotomy, no choice to choose
Hate/Love

Back to the 80s.... New Listener.... Thankyou for great music. Music that is so full of nostalgia yet is fresh and clean. Your voice is so smooth. You guys really are talented. It's refreshing to have some good music for a change with real meaning and thought verses all the garbage Hollywood is dumping out.

Most bands age like an ice cream sandwich left out in the sun but Metric has aged like an ice cream sandwich put in the fridge... Everything after Synthetica is just ok but maybe that's just compared to those amazing first 4 or 5 albums.

I think of Metric's albums like a pack of Skittles or something. Sure most people are all about the red ones, but they're all really good flavors to be honest. If you're eating Skittles, you've already won.

I love how Metric has had the same style since 2012, but have evolved it in so many interesting and unique ways. Every one of their songs is like meeting back up with an old friend, you know what to expect, but you still find yourself pleasantly surprised.

Saw her live some 20 years ago... Amazing! Yes, she was younger, just like all of us.
Oh my god i cant wait anymore
"Back when I said that I want it all..." This must be a follow up to The Shade. Love it!
This track is 🔥
I love this video, it gives definite "we broke into the botanical gardens at night to film" vibes.
the way she says "false dichotomy" makes me shiver lol. Love it.
this album is an instant classic, and this is among the best singles of the year
2024. This is one if the most beautiful songs by Metric. Emily, you are an absolute 🔥 fire. My sister and i foujd your song Hustle Rose back in 2004. I have seen you in concert. I have this shirt when this song dropped, Who would you be for me? No one has worn it. And i cherish every song. 20 years of metric.
More excellence from Metric. It's what I have come to expect from a truly great band.
I'm not even Canadian, but if this doesn't win the Juno award they should take that organization down! And as much as I love Arcade Fire the last Juno for them was not deserved. This really is Metric's moment.
replaying this entire album on loop to cure my depression. THX METRIC

Always loved that Metric is such a perfect mix of something that makes you think and something that makes you dance 💜💜💜
It's impossible to have a favorite Metric song, but the chord progression on False Dichotomy really just hits so deeply, I keep whistling it.
Had surgery, and now get to chill with your new music. You’ve been my faves since 2009 and love every single album. Thank you!

Loved the Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 GnR cassette album placement. Flashbacks to my childhood!
Now I understood what is a "false dichotomy"! Nice video, good vibes song and Emily stunning looks!
yesssss lets goooo #FORMENTERA Ⓜ️⚡⚡
Rumor has it this director is still zooming in and out to this day...
Major fan for a decade!! Love from South Africa, Metric is my fav band!!!!
Omg how do they actually do it? This band is so incredibly special and talented 🖤
This music...this melody...fucking magic. It's like sad, Happy, exciting, helpless & hopeful all at the same time! This jam makes me wanna dance! And can I say it again? Emily looks fucking hot in this video! I love her no makeup look!
Is this the same director as Youth Without Youth? The double lighters got me in the feels 🕯🕯

I love this song so much. It stuck on me.
You good band. You make good music. Love from Ukraine.
Such a catchy song with clever lyrics🎶 always turn up the radio when I hear it💖

Emily is more beautiful than ever!!
The first look giving us late 90's All Saints vibes. The weed-whacked Barbie hair. That nude bodycon. As if the musical brilliance and Rock God-domeness wasn't enough - I am equally inspired by her appreciation for fashion and I think Emily is a subtle, referential, underappreciated style maven. Superficial, I know.
We saw them in Denver last night. They killed it! Such a great time. Highly recommended concert!
Saw this as an ad and just listening not watching the video. Thought it was someone new. I was thinking this sounds like Metric. Looked at the video and thought she looked like Emily Haines. Looked at the name and it was Metric. Just a false dichotomy
How is Metric so damn good!??? I am always so blown away
I am so addicted to this song the words and the music
Metric is an S tier band!
will never not love emily and the gang
I absolutely *love* this song! The title alone is bloody perfect. I'm kind of amazed that someone wrote a song about false dichotomy / dichotomies. I clearly shouldn't be, but, I've been spending too much time listening to either very well-known / overplayed music OR listening to pre-1900s OR very obscure music (not indie ... more like "pansori-jazz" and various random stuff I've tended to just stumble upon ... not so intentionally sought out). Bloody brilliant! The ideas / theme is very interestingly captured, IMO. Can't really put together a better comment, myself, right now, I guess. But, wanted to write something because I absolutely *love* this!
La escuché una vez y ya no se me despega de la mente. ♥
OOOOOOH, no seriously? Are you kidding me? More Metric, tomorrow? PERFECT!!!! **Does happy dance.** Btw, I am absolutely stoked for your new record to drop!!! I've been rather OBSESSIVELY playing and replaying your last one, over the last few weeks!! As in.. over, and over, and over, again... You guys are the BEST!!! I love you so much.

"Pleasure gets so easily abused" and I'm here, listening to this song over and over again. No regrets, though 😁
Thx to metric for save this summer

Love it!
Su música es hermosa, espero verlos en vivo en algún momento, ojalá hagan una gira por latinoamérica, en especial 🇪🇨
It's a false dichotomy to say you love or you hate Metric after listening to a song like this. There's only one option
@devinlea4825

And before the internet screams at me, yes, I know what a false dichotomy is. I just wanted to make a bad play on words because if there is only one option (loving Metric), that also is a "false" dichotomy.
This whole album is what the world needs for years to come. Looking forward to the live show in Boston. ♥️ Wish I could go to every show.
Been a fan since your first album I just cant stop. Your sound is so full and powerful. And your live shows blow me away. ❤️ I’ll be a fan till I’m gone in this dirt and I hope my children will continue your legacy 🎉🎉 party on guys constant killers >every track

Great mood! Luv U! 🧡💜
Another brilliant song and I love the video! The new album is fantastic, one of your best yet! I've been a fan since Monster Hospital and you haven't released a bad song or album - ever! Brilliant work all the way. Varying musical styles but they all work fantastically. Will watch this a lot, wonderful stuff! :)
It's impossible for Metric to make a bad song or album.
Brilliant! I wish the whole world could get a glimpse of this message.
That chorus is pure gold!!
I love this band a lot! They .. arree ... grreaT!!!
I really do love how this band has grown I mean I started listening when I was just a emo teenager listening to youth without youth and It's amazing now Ive grown so much emotionally and Metric is still coming out with songs that speak still to me so much I absolutely appreciate this band so much ❤️ along with all the collaborations with other favorite musicians like REZZ I never though they would be together but I am so happy how far they have come. I thought I was weird for listening to them but now so many people know who they are!! Amazing.
Absolutely incredible
Banger after banger
