My heart melts every time I here this song. Aesthetically pleasing too❤️

[@orlandosermeno9331]

Broken social scene never fails! This women is amazing and soooo beautiful I'm at loss for words on how incredible this song is and her beauty!

[@andreamasiniluccetti1793]

Un brano con un insieme di strumenti che arricchiscono la musicalità. Bravi!!! Italy

[@DylTyrril]

Ariel has a really lovely voice

[@malachinova6106]

You probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream pretty much all the new movies on InstaFlixxer. I've been binge watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown xD

[@colsonlandry694]

@Malachi Nova yup, have been using InstaFlixxer for since november myself :)

[@JohnWhittle]

Cannot stop listening to this...

[@tctc2727]

This is so great! Her voice is amazing, too.

[@Fullbatteri]

I love this *too damn much!*

[@erickmagana1451]

I totally love you!

[@princeoffriendship]

Her voice is similar to Feist! I had to go back and listen to the original version and hear the difference! I think Feist's voice is deeper.

[@davidsynge7030]

princeoffriendship she has a bigger range overall, Ariel thins out a bit on the high notes. still lovely but you can tell it's not written for her voice.

[@j_freed]

Feist has a crystalline timbre to her voice from the additional high-end overtones. It's the magic of her singing along with her incredibly good pitch & effortless soaring falsetto that sounds pretty full.

[@xxjcd702]

compared both voices is this singer's voice is actually deeper

[@bertv9761]

That bass though. Fuckin silky.

[@gravygravyjosh]

Such a beautiful song

[@kate804]

Ariel's ace. I MUCH prefer her voice to Lisa Lobsinger's, it's more in tune and has a ton more depth and tone to it. Welcome addition.

[@sebas.cineymusica]

Yo AMO este disco 😻... Sin embargo, veo sus presentaciones y las siento desinfladas.

[@rwldebruijn1979]

What a rhythmic masterpiece. Deceptively hard to play.

[@Brieeeeeel]

MELHOR BANDA DO UNIVERSO CARALHO EU AMO MUITO VOCÊS VOLTEM PRO BRASIL EU AMO DEMAIS

[@BabyJacoby]

❤️❤️❤️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼me and my mom love you guys

[@skaterchuckpdx]

Looking forward to the show in Portland at Crystal Ballroom.

[@21innocentbystander]

Oh my oh my this is amazing

[@21innocentbystander]

Their best record since 'You forgot' for me

[@batbawls]

I'm in love

[@ncarou]

Gracias

[@shaggytheshaman]

Omg how could you cut out the piano at the beginning? It's haunting and beautiful and introduces the song perfectly.

[@mungebob95]

Link? I couldn’t find it

[@emilomatosis]

WHERE'S FEIST?

[@Marvell3000]

Emilio Guardado I think this would have conflicted with Feist solo tour she is on. Ariel was amazing and did a fantastic job.

[@emilomatosis]

ramps4squirrels : Of course she did, she's great too!!! I just got too excited when I read Hug Of Thunder and hoped it featured Leslie, but they are always beautiful :').

[@Fullbatteri]

Her face changed a lot in the last few years... xD For real tho, her voice is uncannily similar! D:

[@willshogren1987]

Every cool public school teacher in Toronto decided to get busy.

[@j_freed]

2:29 this version reminds me of The Bangles - I can really hear Susanna Hoffs & Belinda Carlisle at this point of the chorus.

[@j_freed]

Just another Manic Thunder!

[@JohnWhittle]

"I'm Syd Barrett and I'll swim to England in his clothes, in 20 holes"

[@paulgraham8775]

Can't watch until the end because the back-up singer was totally ignored by the director. So pissed right now.

[@lexgo410]

YES! There are actually TWO other vocalists, both of whom who are pretty respected in their own right and long time BSS members. At least Amy Millan (of Stars) gets the tiniest bit of screen time, but Emily Haines (of Metric) is there too and as soon as the camera touches her it cuts away. Every. Single. Time. But in that millisecond you do see her there's no obvious reason she couldn't be in frame more. In the KCRW video for "Stay Happy" the most you ever see of Emily is the edge of her pants-you only know it's her because of her voice! There's no way that *wasn't* intentional, especially when every other person gets screen time. It's so weird! I'm glad someone else noticed.

[@pulptom]

this girl is very pretty!! great song

[@TheKevbe]

My God, who is she

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

Poliszynel Ariel Engle

[@j_freed]

Also I don't envy any singer trying to recreate the pliant, crystalline and angelic soarings of Leslie Feist. This song is a customfit for her unique style.

[@jolozgur]

Who is she? Please!

[@paulgraham8775]

Where the Flock is the backup singer?

[@estacoda545]

Paul Graham to the right of the guitar player

[@predobender]

Edward Norton is that you?
