Growing up in Sri Lanka, I stumbled upon English and Western music at a young age. Those melodies hit differently for me, and I found myself totally obsessed with English musicians as time rolled on. We had this TV channel that played English music in the middle of the night, probably because no one cared about it at that hour. I used to drag myself out of bed just to catch that channel because it was my only way to watch music videos. Now, my English wasn't good back then, but I'd just sit there, glued to the TV, blown away by everything - the melodies, the visuals, you name it. I genuinely loved every music video, no matter the genre. At the end of each video, they'd show the song's name, and I'd quickly jot it down. Why? So I could bug my brother to pirate me the MP3 version. Then on one nigh night, "The Suburbs" by Arcade Fire played on the TV, and I was transported to a whole new world. I was so into the song that I forgot to catch its name. Cue three years of searching for that damn song. The melody was stuck in my head on repeat. I refused to let it go because I loved how it made me feel. But, over time, even the melody faded away. Fast forward a few years, and I stumble upon a Spotify playlist. Lo and behold, my second rendezvous with "The Suburbs." I fell in love with it all over again, clueless that this was the song I'd been hunting for during my teenage years. Played it a thousand times, no exaggeration. Then, while looking for a lyrics video to share on Instagram, I stumbled upon the music video, and it hit me - this was the one I missed back in the day. Thinking about it, the song was with me from the get-go. Even without knowing its name, the melody lingered in my mind for years. When it disappeared, the song found me again through a Spotify playlist, and now, it's mine forever. This is truly the greatest tune in my life, and nothing can take that away from me.

It’s crazy looking back on the time in my life when I got to be a part of this. I’m the one in the beanie. It feels like a lifetime ago. Honestly is gut wrenching that a lot of what you see in this video is already coming true in the world today. Looking back on it in the year of 2020 I feel like this video predicted a lot in its own way. I had just turned 16 and got my drivers license. I was looking for a new high school to go to when it just so happened that the day I was shadowing at this art high school one of the casting directors saw me. She came up to me and said “do you want to audition for a spike Jonze short?”. I was like hell yeah I do. I did the interview and forgot that it happened till I got a call back. Honestly showed up to the call back still not believing it was real till I walked into the room and Spike was handing me a script saying “give it a read”. It was a trip shooting this for a month getting to kick it with spike, win, will and the rest of arcade fire for a month or so. The real reason why we were laughing in the one scene of us shooting the BB guns on the overpass was I accidentally shot Will in the chest with the BB gun and made him bleed haha. Sorry again Will my bad 😂. I was really stoked that I was in this because I knew about arcade fire from a fully flared part (also made by spike) and I told all my friends (who didn’t know at the time who they were). Until they won the Grammy for album of the year and everyone was hitting us up. It was a fun ride especially being so young. I’m glad a portion of my adolescents was captured in this way. It’s beautiful and whimsical. Every time I go back and watch this it brings back memories around that time. Aright I’m done rambling lol. Thanks again for the good times 🙏🤙

A lot of people seem confused about this video and the lyrics and have weird interpretations of it, but I kind of think it's sort of obvious. The song is about the way we're cut off from the past, from childhood, the suburbs where we grew up and the people we were then. The video starts out with nostalgic scenes of teenagers being teenagers, and darkens as the future intrudes on their lives. The future, adulthood, and everything that comes with the inevitable passing of time is what cuts us off from that childhood, which can exist only as a memory, and even that fades. That's why he's singing about "moving past the feeling and into the night," or about how the houses they built in the 70s will crumble and will have meant nothing at all. This intrusion of the future is literalized in the the video and appears as a military locking everything down with martial law and pulling the childhood friends apart as they go their separate ways, mature, and become other people entirely, maybe even people who are corrupted by the world outside of suburbs. They become people who can be set against one another and even friends grow to be enemies. I'm pretty sure that's what the bit with the fight is about at the end. The song and video perfectly capture that feeling or realization that you can't go back. The home you remember, this place you long for, no longer exists for you to return to it, and even if you could return to it, you are no longer the same person you remember. It's the feeling of needing something and looking for it when it no longer exists for you to find.

Traduccion a español: Mucha gente parece confundida con este video y la letra, y tienen interpretaciones extrañas, pero para mí es bastante obvio. La canción trata sobre cómo estamos desconectados del pasado, de la infancia, de los suburbios donde crecimos y de las personas que éramos entonces. El video comienza con escenas nostálgicas de adolescentes siendo adolescentes, y se oscurece a medida que el futuro se entromete en sus vidas. El futuro, la adultez y todo lo que viene con el inevitable paso del tiempo es lo que nos separa de esa infancia, que solo puede existir como un recuerdo, e incluso eso se desvanece. Por eso canta sobre "dejar atrás el sentimiento y entrar en la noche", o sobre cómo las casas que construyeron en los 70 se derrumbarán y no habrán significado nada en absoluto. Esta intrusión del futuro se literaliza en el video y aparece como un militar que lo cierra todo con ley marcial y separa a los amigos de la infancia a medida que toman caminos separados, maduran y se convierten en personas completamente distintas, tal vez incluso personas corrompidas por el mundo exterior a los suburbios. Se convierten en personas que pueden enfrentarse entre sí e incluso los amigos pueden llegar a ser enemigos. Estoy bastante seguro de que eso es de lo que trata la pelea al final. La canción y el video capturan perfectamente esa sensación o la comprensión de que no puedes volver atrás. El hogar que recuerdas, ese lugar que anhelas, ya no existe para que regreses a él, e incluso si pudieras regresar, ya no eres la misma persona que recuerdas. Es la sensación de necesitar algo y buscarlo cuando ya no existe para que lo encuentres. Increíble, hermosa, y muy acertada interpretación!

I'm now finally settled somewhere and am only living with one parent, but i have no sense of self.

I was 25 when this record came out but it really speaks in a universal but personal way to anyone who grew up in the suburbs and felt the pressure of expectations, the boredom, and sometimes the beauty of pacing a cul de sac at 4 AM on a 3 hr phone call with your best friend. It makes me sweetly nostalgic for something I hated that hurt. My family collapsed, my parents went broke and sold their home, I’m estranged from my brother. It’s all gone now. But there were nights like when I drank a case of Labatt Blue with a friend in the neighborhood, walked to his house a mile away, and fell in a deep ditch and cut my head open so bad my white t shirt was soaked red with blood. It’s a memory that I have some affection for. This song elicits that.

I always thought that this was about violence and how growing up surrounded by it affects your whole life, especially your childhood. Probably because as a mexican, that's how many people have had to live since a few years ago. There are no cops, only soldiers, they guard the cities, it's common to see their cars around the city. When i was a kid, me and my friends used to ride our bikes till midnight, everything was ok, but now you can't do that. Sometimes you get trapped in the shootings, many innocent people have die for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. At least i'm glad i was able to enjoy my childhood before all of this started, and this whole album reminds me of that.

24pablox I think this song is so awesome because in a way we can all relate to it. In high school everything was so simple and fun. Now life comes at us with more responsibility and the loss of that innocence we had. We see life for what it really is as a young adult. We reminisce back to those times just like Kyle did.

As a young woman growing up in a small town from Venezuela, I always found this song as my mantra. Because many of you know how hard was growing up in the suburbs, but I'm pretty sure not many people can say they spent their adolescence fighting the police and army, between the riots, watching how your friends disappeared... And then? Then nothing changed.

I know this song talks about nostalgia, but I can't help but feel very emotional at the chorus. When he says "Sometimes I can't believe it // I am moving past the feeling", even though he's talking about nostalgia, it still hits me like if it was talking about me, and the way he sings feels so sad and happy at the same time that I feel like it's talking about the hardships I went through in high school It makes me think "I am finally moving past the toxic relationships that were still affecting me" "I am finally moving past the overwhelming anxiety that paralyzed me" "I am finally moving past the harmful environment that my school had" "I am finally moving past the feeling of despair, from feeling that I wasn't worthy, that I was not gonna make it" I am moving past these feelings, and it's crazy. If you're feeling like that still, trust me, it will go away someday.

Time never comes back. Money comes back, things you lose come back, even relationships come back. But times doesn't, so use it wisely. Make friends, have new experiences, make mistakes, break rules, create things. Don't be ashamed of what people think of you, or one day you'll be ashamed for not having lived to the fullest. Memento mori. Remember, death comes. Carpe diem. Enjoy your day, live the moment. Life is short, and yours may be even shorter than you expect.

The carefree days of youth. When immersed in it, you feel like it lasts forever, like you need to rush to the next stage of life. Hanging out with friends, mostly doing nothing, the days feeling like they are dragging by excruciatingly slow, but looking back they were just a blur. Would relive those days over and over in an endless loop if I could. Changing nothing.

The saddest part about this song applies to all of us, we didn't know as kids those were going to be the best days of our lives and one day, we all hung out for the very last time and no one even knew until years later that's how it would happen and now you're older and now you're lonely and remember how free you felt as a kid, how life was just about having fun and being in the moment and now you are all too aware of how dark the world has become and its written on everyone's faces, they don't smile anymore, everything is a chore and we just sit and watch as the wars continue on but to a different song, a song we don't even know or recognize so we just endure and dream of days past.

"When I think back about that summer, I don't think much about the army. There was always some sort of conflict going on. Towns would attack each other if a golf course was built too close to a border, or if a shopping centre gave off too much light pollution. So now, what I really try and think about are my friends from back then. It was the summer Winter cut his hair. I wish I could remember every little moment. But I can't. Why do I only remember the moments that I do?I wonder what happened to the other moments. I wonder what happened to Winter... Whatever our town was fighting about, the feeling of fear and waiting... it all seems so distant now. I guess those aren't the pieces you remember. Now I close my eyes and try and go back there. I've seen Winter around some over the years and he's only gotten weirder. Sometimes what he's become changes how I remember him. Sometimes it doesn't." - Scenes from the suburbs, 2011 (Arcade fire short film directed by Spike Joneze, where this footage is from.)

Amazing lyrics showing that someone wants to have a child and show them all the great things in life before that person grows up and conforms with society. And if he can't have a daughter then he wants a son because he will be more strong and resistant to society's influences. Great song!

I want to hold her hand And show her some beauty, Before all this damage is done But if it's too much to ask If it's too much to ask Then send me a son Under the overpass In the parking lot we're still waiting It's already past So move your feet from hot pavement And into the grass 'Cause it's already past It's already, already past Sometimes I can't believe it I'm moving past the feeling Sometimes I can't believe it I'm moving past the feeling again I'm moving past the feeling I'm moving past the feeling In my dreams we're still screaming We're still screaming We're still screaming

_You know, I've often wondered why it is we have children in the first place. And the conclusion I've come to is; At some point in our lives we realize things are screwed up beyond repair. So, we decide to start again. Wipe the slate clean. Start fresh. And then we have children. Little carbon copies we can turn to and say, "You will do what I couldn't. You will succeed where I've failed." Because we want someone to get it right this time.._ It's a quote from the last scene of the *Stoker*, movie. Somehow, this song reminded me of that film, and I really think, we all want children that much, because we see a start of a new life in their living. We lost our childhood and now "our" human being is continuing it..

Esta canción me recuerda mucho a mis amigos y a mi en tiempos de prepa como vivíamos despreocupados, rodando en las calles en nuestras bicicletas, simplemente siendo chicos viviendo su vida de la forma más hermosa y simple que puede existir, no fue hasta que empezamos a entender que no todo era miel sobre hojuelas comprendimos que muchos amigos empezaron a morir, a meterse en cosas malas que pasan en México, poco a poco esas personas que conocíamos empezaron a aparecer en los noticieros, en fotos de periódicos, en notas Rojas. Al final cada uno de nosotros tuvimos un arranque de ira cada quien en su tiempo, como al final del video del chico que destruye la silla y maldice sin control, cada uno de mis amigos tuvo ese episodio de impotencia, enfurecidos por crecer, por no poder estar ahí y evitar que a esa persona le quitaran la vida. Solo puedo decirles que sobreviví y estoy haciéndolo. In my dreams we still screaming.

Para aqueles que sentem que estão perdendo algo depois de assistir a este videoclipe e estão procurando o significado: Este videoclipe é composto por cortes de "Scenes From The Suburbs", um curta-metragem de 30 minutos inspirado no álbum do Arcade Fire, The Suburbs. O curta mostra o narrador olhando para trás através de suas memórias e tentando juntá-las. Vemos o rompimento de uma amizade em um cenário de subúrbio distópico. O curta completo está disponível online e recomendo que você assista. Você assistiu? Não? Bem, realmente não importa. O fato é que, mesmo se você assistir, vai ficar com as mesmas perguntas que tinha quando começou. E aqui está a parte mais importante: isso é intencional. Assim como o narrador do curta-metragem fica confuso e se pergunta "Quando tudo deu errado?" e "Como é que eu devo me sentir sobre isso?", o espectador é levado a se sentir da mesma maneira. O narrador fica com memórias fragmentadas e não consegue entendê-las. Assim como o espectador, o narrador se pergunta por que sua amizade se desfez. Mas não há um bom motivo. Isso se encaixa com os temas da 'busca por sentimentos perdidos' que se repete no álbum The Suburbs, embora não se encaixe totalmente. Espero que tenha esclarecido algumas coisas para você. No mínimo, fique tranquilo, pois este videoclipe foi feito para fazer você perguntar, "por que as coisas aconteceram dessa maneira?" e intencionalmente não fornece as respostas.

I remember listening to this song for the first time when i was 13/14. Even if it was the first time, the song already sounded so nostalgic and I could never explain the feeling. I'm listening to it again while I'm almost turning 20 and each time I listen, it gets more and more nostalgic. The lyrics sound real and apocalyptic fiction at the same time. Totally bittersweet and I love it so much it makes me wanna cry.

This came on in the car when me and all my childhood friends were hanging out the night before my best friends wake. I almost can't listen to this anymore because of all the emotions I feel when I hear it. Hands down the strongest emotional attachment I have to any song.

On the outside, it looks like a teenage love triangle. It's inferred that Kyle likes Winter's girlfriend, and he gets upset about it. If that part is true or not, this whole album (this song especially) is about growing up. The war symbolizes teenagers. Stuck between childhood and adulthood. Just like one neighborhood is fighting with another. It's symbolizing the inner conflict with teenagers. If you watch Scenes From the Suburbs it makes much more sense. Winter is being forced to grow up by his older brother Terrance. He makes him cut his hair, stop handing out with his friends, and stop acting like a kid. Winter and Kyle are best friends, and in just one short summer their friendship is torn apart. It's pretty deep, actually.

@ericn14504 жыл бұрын
Kat, The scene of the beat down in the music video is a lot longer than it is in the original film. The film does not go into why he beats him up either. The older brother of the violent kid is a major character in the film and he is not shown in the music video. He is the one that is the catalyst for the friendships ending but no violence is hinted at until the very end.
