The Arcade Fire - 'Wasted Hours' - LIVE DEBUT: EXTENDED VERSION!! 09/12/10

[@itsamazeofmirrors]

The only time it was played live, ever. I wonder why.

[@AlexGoldberger]

Wow, that extended outro truly was Springsteen-esque! This song gets to me in a way that few others do; I'm so glad this band exists.

[@Taooflu]

This is the song i play the most on the album...it takes me back.

[@peanutismint]

Listening again. Such a great ending!! Also massively loving Richard Reed Parry's shirt design that's so extreme it's carrying on down his trouser leg....

[@peanutismint]

Amazing! you were so close. This was such a great version for the live debut. Hairs on the back of my neck stook up during the chorus, and the outro!!!

[@TheCheesyNachos]

I can’t believe this is the only time they’ve played this song (so far)

[@ahoybobby]

I was just made aware of that fact and came to see if there was footage....it's good why don't they play it?!? Must have been awesome to see live since at that point the extended version on The Suburbs Deluxe hadn't been released yet

[@jstevenson]

My guess is both because Win messed up and because it seems like they lost the crowd with it (you hear a lot of crowd talking in this recording)

[@paulmartinez9039]

Beautiful. Thank you for uploading.

[@1251blog]

Thanks, finally they were playing this song. Finally!

[@kurokieva07]

This is amazing!!!

[@Permafry42108]

i like the security guy in the bottom right. you'd think if he were doing his job he would have asked the camera man not to film the concert

[@macska92]

Oh damn, Win totally messed up the lyrics, haha....The song still sounded awesome though, loving the extended ending, I would love to hear it live more often.

[@macska92]

@bcdebob Yep, from 0:42, he is singing the wrong verse, it should be 'First they built the road, then they built the town....' Check the official lyrics and you'll see! At first I thought I misheard it or something, I had to rewatch the video twice... I'm surprised no one has noticed it yet, haha. And yes, it's the first and only performance of this song so far, which is quite a shame, but I guess it's their fault, they have too many great songs to choose from :)

@katiedid1023 ; 09/12 = 9th of December! ;)

[@Gulpeg]

@katiedid1023 Perfect :D Ill work on getting Arcade Fire to play at our reception. Think I may have more of a chance since I'm Canadian?

[@gomagsgo]

@petwin12 To me, it means before, when we were kids, we had to do what we were told we didn't live our own life, now we have a choice, but some choose still, not to live, but to do what others expect, they are still those kids in buses. But we can turn it around and not just be alive, but live. Salut.

[@bcdebob]

@peanutismint : Parry's wearing a jumpsuit:) its one piece~ yeah, its cool! >.

[@Sync_Complot_]

well, I Think that "The Suburbs Deluxe" will be the same songs with extended versions, just like this song and ready to start...

[@bcdebob]

@macska92 really?? i didn't notice? where!? lol; yeah, this is the first and only time they sang this live in concert apparently..!? adore this song, adore Win;)

[@Gulpeg]

These guys are amazing. Since I've seen them in September, they are all I can listen to, everything else sounds so cheap compared to them..

[@HelloSaysCarl]

as a massive fan of the 1st 2 albums live, i was worried the new stuff wouldnt be as good, and maybe the best bits were still the same best bits as when i saw them tour when they toured neon bible, but the new songs kind of give a bit of depth and air to the live show. the only band in the last 6 years who arnt trying to be the libertines or trendy or following shallow fashions. timeless stuff and the best live band since the all the great bands of the 90's

[@Gulpeg]

@katiedid1023 Wow, I already feel suffocated with all the restrictions of our relationship. I can tell it won't work, but let's do it just to get Arcade Fire to show up. I'll hit on Regine and you can hit on Win at the reception, then we'll split the gifts, deal?

[@bcdebob]

@petwin12 'Don't hold me back'...

[@bcdebob]

@macska92 oo ic lol! ooo i can't wait to see them in Hyde Park in June!

[@sraghuna]

A worthy succesor to Floyd!!!

[@Gulpeg]

@katiedid1023 Ha ha, exact same scenario with me, they blew me away. Since we have so much in common, will you marry me? :P~
