This is an INCREDIBLE version. Sounds very indie.

emily has a truly great female rock and roll voice

I can't stop playing this song. I love this version.

Anyone else watched this for more than 16737942468941 times? :3

They're so fucking gooood

The acoustic version really lets us hear incredible Emily's voice. Thanks for uploading this.

I absolutely love these accoustic recordings of their songs. It's like hearing a totally different song. I love them as I've heard them and as I hear them in these versions now.

I discovered this band by accident, now I'm a fan, they have a great style.

I love their acoustic stuff. Kinda like them a bit more than the regular versions

Thank you guys. We appreciatre you. Forever.

I just spent the last 2 hours of my life tracking this song down, because I forgot the title...really really glad that I did.

Some of us are wild ones Ever under wanted I believe Lining up in the background Waiting for the crowd shot to be seen In the shadow of the big screen Everybody begs to be redeemed Hey, I'm not synthetica I'll keep the life that I've got We were never meant to Crawl in for the bait, we never will I can think for myself I've something no pill could ever kill Hey, I'm not synthetica I'll keep the life that I've got So hard, hard to resist Synthetica No drug is stronger than me Synthetica We're all the time confined to fit the mold But I won't ever let them make a loser of my soul Ahhh Hey, I'm not synthetica I'll keep the life that I've got I'll keep the life that I've got I'll keep the life that I've got I'll keep the life that I've got

She just has this amazing, rich, mature voice, I wish I had someone like her to write for. That voice is the stuff of my Dreams.

I could listen to this over and over again

Love when they play acoustically, always challenging themselves with rigorous honesty in their music. This is why Metric is always so amazing.

I love love looove Metric, she sings effortlessly :)

if metric went purely acustic I would live in a wonderful world

This song has aged like fine wine. Prescient and more appropriate than ever

i love when jimmy and emily sing together like this - the way jimmy watches emily sing whie he plays the guitar makes me smile.

her voice is like angel's voice.

love her voice for many years.

Ten years just like that. metric still getting the love from my speakers

Always just spot on. Lyrics seem to make so much more sense to me in it's purest form. Ugh. Love them.

amazing!! Emily is a one of a kind

Love her voice

Very Big in Canada! and I've liked them in the US since way back (18++ years ago) - Emily Hayes is extraordinarily talented and I had a glimpse of them at PNC in NJ pre-pandemic doing a small set opening for another band - very unfortunate there's no East Coast demand for them I wish I can see her closer to home!

Pure talent. They are so tight, note the eye contact. Kudos to the sound/video team on the quality while recording outdoors next to a festival and in changing light conditions.

love the band!!!

She's awesome!!!!!!! What a beautiful voice!!!

Sure! We're a non-profit, so we're always accepting donations!

Kudos to the guitarist. Not just his skills at playing, but from not freezing up amidst falling in love with her while watching her sing 2 feet away from him. Don't know how he held it together.

He fell for her?

They could have done an entire DVD at this place, I would have bought one without hesitation.

Simply Amazing! Love Her.

Me encanta Metric! Los conocí hace un mes aprox. y es lo que más escucho. La chica es geeeeenial!!! Tiene una hermosa voz🌱🙋🏻

"That's one fluffy little dude, man" TOO GOOD

I remember listening to Metric a few years back, and now Im going to them and Hellogoodbye live at a Paramore concert on October 19th!! Ah im so excited!!

LOVE IT

this blows my mind! love it

Thanks for sharing. That's really terrific. Thanks again.

sigo escuchando este tema esta versión y aunque pasan los años desde la primera vez... me sigue emocionando. el poder del arte. ¿no?

They really are awesome. 10/10

Saw them in Toulouse a while ago !! Been a fan forever, this version is crazy good !

Most excellent! You guys keep coming up with some really great stuff flying below my radar without you! Keep up the great work and thanks!

So good!

Amazing song

I can think for myself, ive got something no pill could ever kill

i love it, they wear sunglasses in a dark studio INDOORS, now they are at the Gorge with a sunset OUTDOORS and no shades. *eyeroll* sounds fuckin awesome.

Wow! just wow.

Someday, I want somebody to look at me like Jimmy looks at Emily.

Probably the full minute of showing a drone flying before they start playing. They certainly nailed the performance, but apparently the more time you spend surfing the web the less patience you have for sunsets;)

A great person showed me the metric splendor. I wish she knew of the impact she had on me.

Same. I havent spoken with her in more than ten years. It is an ex girlfriend. Above many people in my life i wonder what happened to her.

Wow beautiful

Unique killer voice one of a kind nice.

Jeez.6 months ago. Time goes by so fast.

Perfect.

The god damn lyrics man! Just found this band... Holy shit. The lyrics are fucking rad!

Love the Gorge!

Awesome.

I swear when I heard the guitar into to this, it so reminded me of Concrete Blondes into to "Little Conversations". Both are great songs.

❤❤❤❤

Excellent. Man she's got a voice on her.

Emily has a great voice

in love

more more more!

yep !!

Yesssssssssssssssss

Cool person music. 🖤

wow j'aime encore plus au naturel

Seriously, the album version is fantastic, but this acoustic version is just sublime.

My god that voice

Emily has a voice like Jill Sobule. Which is a great compliment, Jill is just as hypnotizing as Emily. Very Nice version of this song

Anyone else notice The Shins playing Phantom Limb on the MainStage - can hear a few notes of it in the background towards the end

They are so right.... If a song sounds great stripped down and acoustically, the song works.

i fucking love emily haines!! cant wait to see these guys in london in july!!

She always sounds great on record but live she's way better, love everything about her.

jimmy and em work so well together! i wish i could find someone to make sweet music with! i have so many ideas and songs half written! lol thanks for this awesome upload of a genious song! def click of the like button :)

Nice.

obsessed with her and those boots. WHAT ARE THEY?!
