Metric - What's In My Bag?

[@WoodlandThrash]

I love Metric. So underrated.

[@EdwardMYang]

I first heard of Metric during COVID and have loved their music ever since. Deep songwriting, evolving music, just superb all around.

[@DontShineForSwine]

Doomscroller is all about what happened during the theatrics of C19 and where we are as a society today. It is VERY meaningful to me and it's one of the best songs by Metric. The entire Formentera album is incredible. Their music has only gotten better with time. I've been listening for 20 years, and it's been quite the ride. I can't wait for Formentera II.

[@Specialist_7]

She is 45 but her energy is like 20. I loved Metric growing up. Gonna put on some of their stuff now.

[@BenDover-st6gb]

That's because she doesn't have any children, meaning she was never forced to be more mature

[@Alice-wf4pu]

​@@BenDover-st6gbThat's not the metric for maturity babes

[@indigotears]

Thank you Amoeba for doing this segment with Emily, she's such an interesting person and an incredible musician.

[@NateandNoahTryLife]

Grow Up and Blow Away is one of my favorite albums!

[@timdc4972]

ye. and also cut in half but also double, old world underground where are you now, live it out, knives dont have your back, fantasies etc......................

[@StealthMaster86]

Been a fan of Metric since the Live it Out days. Such an awesome band.

[@Goatchild90]

Me too

[@chuckmoon2551]

The Clash at Demonhead! I heart her!! 😍

[@Jamie.Laszlo]

I was hoping to get a clue to who she rather be....the Beatles or the Rolling Stones.

[@kylecoleman3797]

The velvet underground

[@abigaileldritch]

Jamie Laszlo she explained once that question was asked by Lou Reed, to which she answered “The Velvet Underground”

[@sjaypants]

I was just gonna say Lou took that answer to his grave

[@navinsawesomeanddivineacco4221]

Love the refernce !

[@gibbysmoviecorner8286]

i’m visiting this place for the first time this week. i couldn’t be more excited

[@amoeba]

We'll see you soon!!

[@TC-lk2ev]

It's heaven.

[@amazingabby25]

Which one?!

[@liamandhyde]

Synthetica is one of the best albums ever, Metric are amazing

[@MarioGarcia-qu6tw]

I had the honor of meeting Emily and Jimmy on the airplane headed to Mexico, City from Houston, Texas, 10/18/2023, I then, later, saw them outside the Mexico City International airport as they were getting ready to leave the airport in their travel van, I asked them if I could have a photo taken with them, they were so nice about it and said yes. The photo turned out to be a short video instead because the video button was depressed by mistake. I now have such a keepsake, a recorded memory I certainly treasure. Both Emily and Jimmy were such a very nice, down to Earth, lovely couple, I will never forget this day. I flew into Mexico City from San Antonio, Texas to see their show with my daughter in Mexico City, tomorrow, 10/21/2023. I absolutely love this band. Jimmy and Emily are such wonderful folks, a class act.

[@ChrisDN]

Holy cow... those snippets of Sharron Van Etten played and I got goosebumps all over. Album bought.

[@Specialist_7]

She is amazing and that record is really great!

[@travissexsmith5362]

Me too Chris, me too.

[@HiddenHandMedia]

I find her new stuff quite out of character and embarrassing. Her old stuff is pretty good though

[@diegooliveirabenjamin]

Damn, Jorge Ben, awesome pick!

[@ph584]

Brasil-sil-sil-sil

[@seanohalloran384]

Love Emily. She does everything thoughtfully and one hundred percent.

[@SebastianTinajero]

Saw Metric live a few months ago and they put on such a good show

[@LateralNoise]

Emily is a Jon Hopkins fan! Right on!

[@Koshirozation]

carole king and sharon's new album (one of my favorites in 2019)

[@Diatonic5th]

Jorge Ben is great! Africa Brasil is one of my favorite albums of all time.

[@suburbankidswithbiblicalna8933]

'Do Ya Think I'm Sexy' also jacks '(If You Want My Love) Put Something Down On It' by Bobby Womack.

[@eurkrj2609]

Really good picks from Emily - all of them.

[@Violetcas97]

I just saw them recently in Halifax. Amazing show!

[@Just1Micky]

I wish I had Metric growing up. I am late to the game but their value is truly appreciated.

[@paulelliott3220]

Emily is a wonderful artist and Metric are a truly great band Some very excellent choices and I watched that series too ... brilliant

[@sf6117]

She dresses like the girls I used to date in high school. It's been 20 years, but this woman still does it for me.

[@keithkoenig5320]

Emily and Metric are eternally interesting, cool, and yes, underrated. A really fine live band, although I am sad they will not be playing my city here in Middle-America on this year's tour...

[@MrUndersolo]

Oh my...she likes Jorge Ben! Makes a fellow Canadian proud! 🇨🇦 And that Rod Stewart Story is true!

[@0909shaggy]

Absolutely LOVE Jorge Ben

[@dontmakelemonade]

Love this band, never clicked so fast.

[@clvrswine]

Enough with the "never clicked so fast" already. Jesus, you are unoriginal.

[@dontmakelemonade]

@@clvrswine Do you need a hug dude?

[@NateandNoahTryLife]

A lot of artists on this show like Jorge Ben. Seen him in a few bags now.

[@MrUndersolo]

He’s one of the best of the Brazilian Tropicalia movement!

[@mc76]

Emily's appreciation of The Coup is one of the more pleasant surprises of this series. What a great band.

[@Goatchild90]

One of my absolute favourite bands

[@joesoares72]

Emily!!! I've seen you're show and I have to say thank you for introducing me to great artists today especially Sharon Van Etten. :)

[@reddkard]

Emily , loved you in the Paul Banks ( Julien Plenti ) video , Games For Days . You are also a good actress !

[@kimvanfelton3413]

Wow never realized that Emily was the chick in that video. Pretty cool 🖤

[@JaneDoe-tm2ex]

Whoa!

[@ellem4music156]

Metric is love..

[@ivansnegireff7346]

I no what 💘 is pulse till me

[@hjjj1797]

ONE OF THE UNDERRATED BAND OUT THEREEE! METRIC YOU GUYS ARE LEGEND

[@taurusgirl9020]

The Coup was an amazing pick

[@jadem.1158]

Can definitely see the sisterhood between Emily's lyricism and Sharon Van Etten's work. Hope they do get to meet up one day.

[@vinnieblesi1009]

very eclectic. i love it.

[@abigaileldritch]

Fuck I love Emily so much. When I was 8 I would always say that I wanted to be Emily when I grew up haha. She’s amazing

[@richardmurphy9006]

Very talented lady is Emily

[@taciaamostis6473]

One of the many great bands to ever come out of Canada! Love Emily / MERTIC !!! : ) Her brother owns a record store in Canada? What's it called, where?

[@EugeniaMorpho]

Bluestreak in Peterborough, ON. Her brother, Tim, is one of my favorite acquaintances.

[@taciaamostis6473]

@EugeniaMorpho... That is so cool! Fantastic to learn that a deep love of music runs in the family. If I ever get to Peterborough, ON, I'll make it a point to check out Bluestreak. Thanks so much for the reply! Have an awesome day! : )

[@seanquigley5649]

What’s in my bag... Every Metric album! Thanks Emily❤️

[@NateandNoahTryLife]

Sorry to Bother You was an amazing movie. It blew my mind in theaters.

[@Danjoker.]

Love Metric!!

[@zonedereve]

i super want to know what the rest of Metric has in their bag too!

[@GimmickMemes]

John Hoskins sounds cool, thnx for the rec Emily Haines

[@lucaspontes4147]

wow she loves Jorge Ben Jor, cheers from Brazil!!

[@neopsycho4413]

woooooooooooooooo, i love her

[@sageisnotaplant99]

I love her

[@bbdragon]

Yea Sharon!

[@dartanghaneluard6156]

emily haines: c'est cool! : ) "jorge ben": exceptionnel!

[@dominicbiondi4097]

Sharon Van Etten is amazing

[@genericjesus8803]

I’ve never heard of any of those artists/bands...aaah...I guess I’ll put my online proposal on the back burner and do some learnin’….we must have something in common. “I’ll keep digging ‘till I find something” (Toronto)

[@yb32]

2:44 what does brazilians and the brits liking soccer have to do with rodd stewart stealing a jorje ben song? am I missing something here?

[@matthewtop]

Think Jorma Kaukonen would pick some stuff up Amoeba? He's one of my favourites from the acid rock era. Seems like a very nice man.

[@calwiggums3319]

That _Blue Country Heart_ Roger Moutenot (Yo La Tengo!) produced album is a personal favourite. Great suggestion: Jorma is a legend.

[@111RAMONES]

Metric is a must see Live!

[@MatchesMalone1183]

Some good picks, although I get the impression if we were to ever meet, not likely obviously, music would be about the only thing we might agree on.

[@BedroomBeethovens]

Funny, I bought The Coup vinyl for $4 new a few years ago and then sold it on discogs for like $75, had no idea it was such in demand.

[@theheartofablackbird2109]

Cool stuff.

[@regntonne]

Is that dude from Parquet Cours wearing a Venom shirt? That's hilarious. (and cool)

[@gwts1171]

I've never been a fan of Metric (just not my thing), but I met Emily once and she's really nice.

[@KittieBob]

i don’t usually fangirl but fuck i fucking love metric ❤️

[@Leandrogsepulveda]

Emily, my queen ❤️

[@SaintMartins]

4th view ! How is it Amoeba only has 288,055 subscribers ? We need to help promote this channel. Share it on your social media pages peeps.

[@DontShineForSwine]

Well, that kind of sucked. I was hoping it was more about Emily since she is very candid with a lot of things, but ya know, it's whatever. Hah. I have been a die-hard fan of Metric for 20 f*cking years now and I will never stop listening to their music. I LOVE Formentera (Their best album to date) and I am hyped for Formentera II !! Wo0o0o0o0o O_o

[@axxessmundi]

Jorge Ben!! She pronounced his name right!

[@milenelopes7670]

Jorge Ben Jor 🙌🇧🇷

[@tomwarley4895]

I Love This Women,,If Anybody is There To Hear That.... XxXx

[@brightstarlit]

I hear you and I love her just as much!

[@anacristinarabelo9118]

she likes jorge ben❤❤❤, she should just come to brazil and make her brazilians fans happy

[@reginaldperiwinkle]

What Jorge Ben song is that? It's really nice, but they don't say the name!

[@Garblegox]

If you check out that Jorge Ben song, the most important thing you must not miss, is the cuica solo kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJfVoYKeeJtra5o

[@tatayaya]

Ídola!

[@gabrieliatarelli]

Jorge Ben two weeks in a row.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

[@renatolopes2783]

Jorge Ben maravilha!

[@TheOnlySMAWJ]

bluestreak records in peterborough if anyones ever in ontario

[@alexmickee6799]

What's In My Bag? Bluestreak Edition. Get Tim in on it. I'm down.

[@StoryeTime]

Why does she find Rod Stewart's Do you think I'm sexy to be gross and then hails Sharon Van Etten's lyrics about sex etc? Strange. I really dig Metric's music though

[@metriculous9852]

I thought she explained that? She said why she related to those lyrics, they are outside of the "Do you want me" context and approach it in a whole different way.

[@StoryeTime]

@@metriculous9852 Ty. Yay for veggies!

[@TheMafrand]

[@seevac12]

There were no used copies of Tapestry in the store?

[@davidreames8752]

When you are a rock star you can afford to buy new records...no need to look through the used record bargain bins or thrift stores like us poor people ... A used copy of Tapestry?! She won the record collector endless money spending lottery, and the store probably gives her stuff too...

[@omanuelsa]

Jorge Ben!

[@brycesnodgrass8373]

do a what’s in my bag episode with touche amore!

[@amoeba]

It's coming in a few weeks. Hang in there! :)

[@miles9421]

when j went they didn’t have any metric records :(

[@mauropresta7239]

Fuck! I love her.

[@ElBerto_]

legend :)

[@davidellis5141]

A Rod Stewart myth proven true ! The stomach pumping incident still unproven ! But continues in lore.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

David Ellis what myth? :) Unless it’s something else I don’t get, you know Jorge Ben sued him, right?

[@stvltzadventure]

I feel like I can 100% trust her musical taste

[@dankadelic]

when u are not Killin Bill

[@shidanearone9466]

If anyone knows Emily, or if you read this Emily, i would like you to know i was just trying to call my baby daddy ( it's a long story ) a constaglia singer or i didn't really know what it was so i typed in a jumbled spelling and it brought me to constaglia singer but i thought i remembered either a different word or maybe the word had multiple meanings or had differnet connatations in some cultures. And i thought it had a more leadership defintion with maybe an inherited nobility so i added "governess " at the end of my query. So my questions to was " What is a constalgia singer/ governess?" And you were the first thing that came up . I love your music and think your handsome. Don't know if your married so ill leave it at that. I'd be pretty stoked if i popped up number one if someone typed somethin like that in . Just wanted to let you know.

[@andrefreitas5933]

❤️🔥🤟✌️💯

[@danielchamberlain3611]

love these videos but for the love of god please just include the song title within the video when you play different selections from different artists. it will take you all of one extra minute of editing. please i am begging

[@lynnpehrson8826]

Coup!

[@StargazerFS128]

Metric can do no wrong.

[@gomerhanger2285]

when she was younger Emily would get in fights with radio DJs and spit in their faces.
