Arcade Fire - Here Comes the Night Time

[@MurphIer]

This 22 mins is pure genius and entertainment. Congrats Win, your beautiful wife, brilliant brother and sensational band. Nothing else to say but well done, you have entertained me for the the last half hour. now I am switching to Interpol and Untitled.Then, Rest my chemistry

[@KyleBigler]

We would get along

[@marcotewlow8533]

LOSER Baby you and me

[@dawndrk123]

"When I hear the beat, the spirit's on me like a live wire! A thousand horses, running wild in a city on fire!" God, I love this band. I know there are loads of brilliant young bands out there, but these guys just touch me very deeply. I mean, Wake Up, Rebellion (Lies), Modern Man, this song, geeeeesh! They're so bloody great.

[@soggyjungle6065]

True 2 dat. Every kinda band can touch everybody in whatever time and place. Glad it was this band. I agree, they sing songs that reach us.

[@24pablox]

Don't let people imitate your unique style Arcade Fire!!! You're too amazing.

[@professoroak5162]

24pablox a radiohead and arcade fire fan? Awesome!

[@zackzallie8735]

i love radiohead an arcade fire too!!!!! best 21st century bands ever!

[@187BURNZY]

Best band of the decade.

[@earthalien77]

+187BURNZY They say, heaven's a place Yeah, heaven's a place and they know where it is But you know where it is? It's behind the gate, they won't let you in And when they hear the beat, coming from the street, they lock the door But if there's no music up in heaven, then what's it for?

[@gregharris1699]

Thats not saying much. There is major dearth of good bands these days

[@ArcherJ6]

BURNZY187 Well, their new album proves that wrongfully...

[@prettymadafaka696]

what's their new album? p;ease

[@wybsterman]

best band on the planet at the moment.....by miles they've got Everything Now

[@TheArtrocker]

Followed these for 9 years now , since the very , very early days , and still cannot believe how big they have become, loved everything by them and never in over 10 years have i been so excited by this new album , cannot wait , it will be epic and propel them to be crowned the biggest, modern band on the planet , thank you arcade fire for pushing musical boundaries and having the guts to be different , you truly are an inspiration to us all.

[@flamebows5814]

+9 years again.. what do you think?

I love how James Murphy's influence is so strong on all these records. Anything he touches is golden.

Is he a producer or part of the band?

[@austins.2495]

I forget about how amazing their music is, until I hear it again and I get goosebumps all over.

[@deftoys]

solo he visto 2 veces Arcade Fire en vivo y me atreveria a decir que es la mejor banda del siglo 21!!!!

[@MiniColossus7]

I've seen this video like 3 or 4 times. I like that they did something different. Not only are all of the celebrities in this video ones I enjoy in their respective shows, but I feel they are used to great effect. Who doesn't love bill hader and zach gallifianakis from their careers or especially their guest spots on comedy bang bang, Michael Cera from Arrested Development, etc. also, arcade fire is a phenomenal band and this album, while I didn't like it at first, has quickly become one of my all time favorite albums. I think this video shows the band has a great sense of humor and I applaud them for making a nearly 30 minute video that kills. If you don't like it, I'm sorry, but this is just amazing.

[@henroidea]

Nice!Thanks for sharing!

[@gitv2987]

I seen Superbad at a Drive Inn and my buddy and I shared a 12 pk of some nasty budlight, of course it tasted great at the time.. I see 6 cops on my short 20 min drive back home, and said, one cop for each beer I drank, great memory..

[@balance_one]

I love you Arcade Fire, you're the best band ever.

[@sandravalencia6162]

I love Michael Cera's spanish guys, it's awesome.

[@Jonifico]

10 years since. Can't belive how time flies.

Arcade Fire makes Montreal Canada a cool place to be at

[@zoemarette5495]

Bono, Ben Stiller, and James Defranco wow! I cant believe they had all of them in this music video!!!

[@hobbypic9400]

First time i heard about arcade fire was at the 2005 U2 vertigo tour. Wake up was the opening song of the comcert

[@austins.2495]

James Franco*

[@GeorgeRother]

Arcade Fire has such an interesting and unique sound. I like them.

[@JohnB.123]

"Rufus, you totally blew it dude, I'm in Montreal. Where are the wild stallions? Aww, bogus."

[@mugiwaraboshi37]

This song was rad as *hell* in concert.

[@hannahrhcp]

Carlos, por que te gusta la música emocional? lol

[@chriskralik]

+hannahrhcp he killed that shit...and the bannanitas! Carlos is actually the house dj on loan to the production for the tech specs...and he had the keys for the early mornings

Arcade Fire Forever

[@kristinawalla]

Win is too. And I love the way he dances for her.

[@adrianottawau]

George Michael's still working the banana stand in an arcade fire video.

[@Rebazar]

The actual album itself is fantastic. Skip the video and download (and/or buy, hopefully) the full thing. I'm enjoying it more than than any album since their debut.

[@nielsnevrinstangertz6597]

This video is like some weird fever dream

[@gloaurora]

I saw this live right after SNL, it rocked my world!!!!!

[@cherrycrushification]

This band is a breath of fresh air. They're very original, unique and my god these songs are catchy. Great beats, melodies and performers. One of the best bands in the world, imo.

[@JeffFromYouTube]

This is one of the best "Music Videos" ever created. A masterpiece. I love everything about it. Thank you.

[@eveadair8817]

I can't believe I haven't come across this sooner!

[@adyseven1]

Me too... two years later. And 55 years into my childhood.

[@iambatgirl13]

This live show is mixed so much better than the actual album. I really wish their studio albums sounded more like this. Still a fantastically amazing album. Been listening to it non-stop.

[@sofacritic5102]

These are the definitive versions of these songs. All are great. "We Exist" arrangement is out of this world. "Normal Person" chorus is explosive!

[@bobwalton4630]

I am seeing this band for the first time tomorrow night in Massachusetts. I have been looking forward to it for a long time

[@danl7516]

It was a great show, Bob.. hope you enjoyed it as much as I did

[@britishcringetv]

A beautiful and clever album.

[@loprenick]

The best band of oír 21st century

[@youseenednedisdead]

"Ok we're making a music video/quasi-short film for 3 songs by this band, I want a shitton of big name A-list celebrities standing around doing nothing and someone teach michael cera to speak a new language"

[@chriskralik]

+Ned Ackley yep, that's Roman Coppolla...and in the tech meeting he says..."How many camers? Six? Only? ... Okay between Mike and myself we should be able to get a couple more"

Haha and GO!

[@dajjc1427]

Everything Owen Pallett does is absolutely majestic.

[@darkath7175]

I've watched this many times - I love this live. I hope they include it on the album.

[@GeneralDisgust]

Absolutely great track. I'm definitely pleased with the new album. They switch up their sound but stay true to it at the same time and that's hard to do.

[@DianaCaprichos]

so, who is the designer? their clothes is amazing!

[@tonyhernandez850]

Heard they were Made in México

[@sebastiansoutric5639]

Renata Morales

[@Diogen74]

This is amaging. Can't stop singing Here comes the night time in my head... the best piece of music I have heard for many years.

[@rebeccadee4107]

Here comes the night time lyric is so soothing like the dark is comforting. It helps to relax, finding comfort in the dark where dreams can reach heaven.

[@CE04Elisabeth]

Such energy, such musical layers, such singing! WELCOME BACK ARCADE FIRE! I can't wait to hear the entire album!

[@drewfaris9611]

This is amazing!! But you know what isn't? The new comment setup...

[@SunshineClementine]

Here comes the night time! YAY! x

[@seanmclaggin6775]

Am I alone in thinking that Arcade Fire have gotten better with each consecutive album?

[@rhombiperiwinkle7157]

i'm living for micheal cera handing the mic to win like that

[@stashray]

The Arcade Fire Brigade. The only fire brigade in the world that doesn't put fires out. They start 'em!

[@PrestonLanders]

I freakin love this video.

[@delwilson9529]

Has this not been done before in the 80's??? Roxy Music.

[@spitfirefrench]

sort of

[@kaydekaiser7044]

+Del Wilson My thoughts as well. Although, I am so thankful for Arcade Fire's direction here. Kind of like a new Roxy Music album in a way.

[@nicholasderienzo7364]

Yep. Glad someone said it.

[@TXMinecraftXT]

A possibly overlooked tidbit: the soundtrack to the video's Festi horror movie is Joan of Arc in slo mo.

[@jasonvaughn1037]

I haven't watched this in years... I forgot how good this version of We Exist is!

[@Reifenthaler]

this is way more than just music. that`s a whole concept within this stuff... god i`m so curious about the album now...

[@cagonzl]

A lot of people have criticized Arcade Fire for challenging traditional norms of music, but I definitely see where they are going with this album, postmodernism anyone? Where nothing is certain and categories have lost their meaning, where individuals live in a hyper reality, where anything can become anything. Arcade Fire is merely channeling what reality is becoming or what is left of the narratives or frameworks of meaning, reality and music, just look at for example of them entering a "Salsateque" club where clearly no salsa is played, canadian accent by james franco, spliced random clips of nonsense, a staged choreographed audience, spaced is occupied and meaning is altered and given new meaning.... this is the postmodern music video or is it?

[@MANGOS487]

Bugger off. You dont need that amount of bullshit to explain why this is a creative band. It's just music.

[@papafizzz]

Feralz Hurlingtown Exactly, sometimes people really do just over-analyse

[@keonsohn]

This song screams "FIFA soundtrack." I honestly am surprised they did not pick this one up. Kinda glad though.

[@defconkev]

this is such a rare thing that NBC did to have a visiting band music special right after their live show. I watched it as it ran, amazing. NBC could try do this more often.

[@ahoybobby]

Same and it was cool because they left the studio in SNL and it went straight into this like it was actually happening right after

[@DamagedApotheosis]

i guess when bono and ben stiller show up in your vid, the likelihood of seeing arcade fire in the basement of the first unitarian church, philadelphia again (like 10 years ago, amazing show!) is less likely than the tea party becoming progressive.

[@lionqc]

Dont be so sure!

[@mooseratt]

Arcade fire have a sense of humour. Who knew

[@EmmetPowermootski]

Unbelievably brilliant song....best performance ever at Marlay Park !!

[@ONE_OF_MANY-MANY_OF_ONE]

It's like Duran Duran, meets the Kink's. I like it.

[@stephenyo865]

The Suburbs is a great album. Maybe did not have standout tracks as good as some off of Funeral but as an album from beginning to end it is just fantastic. The way the album goes through so many changes and styles without ever sounding odd or out of place is amazing - half light, month of may , we used to wait , deep blue, and then sprawl. LOVE The Suburbs

[@baileyhallfilms]

this is like hangover + superbad cast blended with arcade fire for a rock opera cabaret SNL show! lmao kudos and love from aus!

[@spikes1092]

I went to one of your concerts and you had more people on stage than in the audience! You don't need 3 drummers!!! Lmfao

[@AfroNinjaa98]

2021 BAYBEEEE LESSGO!!! I remember watching this in hs and experiencing such intense happiness and goosebumps. Incredibly thankful I discovered arcade fire. The music takes me back to a time that was so much simpler. A time where all I had to do was scroll on tumblr, mindlessly search the web and play Xbox. What I would do to have it all back….

[@julianacuellar5699]

Besides, having amazing music and music videos, this band is so fucking awesome! They are super pro-choice, respect other peoples opinions, and want to save the environment :) they are really the band of the future! love them :)

Cannot believe that 10% of people who have checked out this short film don't like it ....It is exciting, entertaining and Arcade Fire show that their sound doesn't stagnate... They move on from album to album... I think this material is fantastic..

[@charleslamb4796]

So many Nickleback types don't like Arcade Fire. I'm okay with this.

I wish there was no cameo's and the crowd was not sooo fake. and UN-fortunately Montreal does not really dance like this to live music.

Agree no need for the cameos, all seems a bit forced really, though Michael Cera is as always hilarious.

[@jacklentil3049]

He's a legend because people know who he is. Even you do. Doesn't matter if you like him or not, he's made a huge name for himself.

[@nicole360meadows]

Arcade Fire will never be as influential as Nirvana, period. Partly because Win continues to insist upon singing instead of writing the tunes and stepping aside. However, this ain't bad. Not "amazing", but a pretty good time with a fun video. It's time for the Millennials to find their Robert Lange-equivalent and kick some of these hipster bands up to the next level.

[@dadeyis1]

ElusiveChannel Kurt Cobain is a Pixie wannabe who can't sing. He was the anti-Rick Astley so he deserves praise for that, but musically, pretty thin

[@STB_666]

Both Arcade Fire and Nirvana have their merits, but they are completely different styles of music. To compare them at all makes about as much sense as comparing Motörhead to Bob Dylan.

That is one of the best things I have seen and listened to in the past year. One of my all time favourite groups and current top one. This is real musical art!
