Send us a blindfold
Send us a blade
Tell the survivors
"Help is on the way"
I was a blindfold
Never complained
All the survivors
Singing in the rain
I was the one with
The world at my feet
Got us a battle
Leave it up to me
Find us a trapdoor
Find us a plane
Tell the survivors
"Help is on the way"
I was a blindfold
Who never complained
All the survivors
Singing in the rain
I was the one with
The world at my feet
Got us a battle
Leave it up to me
What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose
I wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
Wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
What it is and where it stops
Nobody knows
You gave me a life
I never chose
I wanna leave but the world
Won't let me go
Wanna leave but the world

From the other room, I was thinking this was Liz.
Can't wait to see them at Hard Rock in Gary, IN on June 29th, I really hope they play this!
I so love this song. They way it creeps up and then soars!!!!
love this song. The power. The voice. 9
Bumped it up yet again...
Evolving my fondness for this band... 8 > 9.
Thought it was James when I first heard it. I like it

They're really begin to measure up.
The start always makes me think it's going to be a cover of You Know My name,
But then it turns into something totally different.

Take that annoying beat and compare it to the Chinese water torture. Just awful. Sucko. Barfo.

The new Metric album comes out today! I'll have to check it out. But this album remains my favorite by them, excellent all the way through.

Definitely lollipoppy, two Ps, to support the pronunciation. Though the Lollipopes would be a great band name. I also like the double doubling.
P.S. One of my favorite portmanteus is wiktionary. :)
I like the contrast between the gritty guitar sound and the lollipopy, sweet synthetic sounds at different times in the song. Cool :-)
P.S. If I'm going to make up a word that doesn't exist, I might as well write it properly. I went for one p in lollipoPy. What do you think?
P.P.S. One of my favourite portmanteau words is Fictionary :-)

Try this one on for size:
Deceivious.
"His deceivious nature made him both entertaining and impossible to trust."
Also, Loves me some Metric, in all their lollipoppy goodness. (I vote for 2 P's, if I get a vote...)

Not sure why but this song is not doing it for me. I really enjoy Emily Haines voice and singing style though

I did ask. Thought that as the accent was on the first syllable, there would be no need to double the P
Regardless of Google results, you'd go with two Ps? It's so annoying now that the search results are tweaked to display what they think one wants to see based on their IP address or previous searches. I really don 't like it when the machines think in our place. I'd rather my mistakes to actually be mine.
And one from Tolstoï that I like, “Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.” and just to be clear, I agree with you I got it wrongish. It's just a quote I like :-)
That Leo was no dummy. I also like the similar "Sanity is not statistical" from Orwell. I think of that every time I see some poll pushing some social agenda and saying that 56% of people agree with this controversial but poorly worded statement, and therefore the 44% that didn't agree are obviously insane as well as any of their ilk that think like them.

Based on that, I think you got it slightly wrongish. Sorry, but you did ask.

Yes LizK, I realize that political humour is lost on most people including you. Apologies for being so confusing with respect to the imperialist running dog streaming radio station out of California.
My grandfather was a capo terrorist. That should tell you "which side" in regards to the Nazi occupation I referenced earlier.
But LizK if you are well socialized proud American, you figure among some of the greatest ethnic cleansing, terrorist peoples of human history.

Many dictatorships in the world are from right political side. Shut up if you can't understand that and stay informed

I have seen Metric live just a few weeks ago and have to say this was one of the most amazing concert I've ever been to. Highly recommended. Such dedication and power.
If any of you has a chance to see them: Go do it!

Time jump, but I walked through Auschwitz-Birkenau last month and don`t need glib comments to bring back those somber memories/ echoes.
Can we not stick to music in all its varied forms? S'l vous plait?

Ha! Not in Canada, though... We use Metric and SAE interchangeably, at least lots of folks do. When I talk to people in Europe, they can't believe we use metric for a whole bunch of stuff, but our entire building trade is based in feet and inches. I tend to use Celcius temperature measurement in the winter, and switch to Farhenheit during the summer. We use Imperial measures for smaller length measurements (darts, horseshoes, sexual organs), and Metric for longer things, although lots of folks use miles, or a combination, depending on the circumstances.
Know why the Mars Climate Orbiter got lost? One engineering team used metric, another English (SAE). And here I thought the specs included standardization.

Seems to me this is more nuanced than you assume. The world won't let me go says quite a lot that is missed by assuming that "you gave me a life I never chose" is the end of the story. I really like the way the instrumentals merge with her voice, which is rather unmistakable.
As a Mum not sure about the lyrics "you gave me a life I never chose" ?

You can listen to most of the tracks on this album at the band website. And pretty damn good they are too. Another discovery courtesy of RP, and another debit on my plastic. 9 from the entranced Nottingham jury.

This is far from "thinking (wo)man's music" but it's a fun album anyway. Not much depth, but energy, passion, and a simple poppish goodness that tugs at the ear in all the best ways.
This album is so good. It really strikes the right balance for me in terms of raw rock, atmosphere, and melody. Love it.

Is anyone else hearing GLaDOS from Portal in her voice?
Love this one, not so thrilled by some of Metric's other output - any recommendations on similar Metric tunes would be much appreciated!
Officially lovin' them!
Voice reminded me of Suzanne Vega when the vocals started...
In Canada, we've all grown to love Metric!
I was really liking it until the tempo shifted. Still, not bad.
Love the bass...
WAY too repetitive for me.

Plenty of good tunes on "Old World Underground..." too.
