Another great song by The Arcade Fire

I love Win's "Oh mirror on the wall..." bits and the piano line is amazing.

 

[Westport]

Love the strings at the end with the "Mirror mirror on the wall, show me where the bombs will fall"



Lyrics

I will walk down to the ocean
After waking from the nightmare
No moon, no pale reflection
Black Mirror, Black Mirror

Shot by a security camera
You can watch your own image
And also look yourself in the eye
Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror

I know when the time is coming
All the words will lose their meaning
Please show me something that isn’t mind
But mind is the only kind that I relate to
I never guessed how the mirror could ever break you
Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror

Black Mirror knows no reflection, knows not pride or vanity
Cares not about your dreams, cares not for your pyramid schemes
Their names are never spoken
The curse is never broken, the curse is never broken
Un, duex, trois, du miroir noir [one, two, three, from the mirror]
Black Mirror
Un, duex, trois, du miroir noir [one, two, three, from the mirror]
Black Mirror

Black Mirror, Black Mirror
Their names are never spoken, The curse is never broken,
Their names are never spoken, The curse is never broken,
Mirror mirror on the wall, show me where them bombs will fall
Mirror mirror on the wall, show me where them bombs will fall
Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror, Black Mirror

God I love this band!

Apparently they recorded a show for Canal+.

Does anyone have this on DVD? If so, is it any good? What is the tracklisting?

Thanks

This has to be one of the top promotional campaigns of the internet age -- smart the way they're doing this. With sneak advance shows in London, Montreal and New York. This is very well thought out and great marketing.

And that video is whack.

First listen I like Mirror a lot. It's very dark but it still has those underlying pop sensibilities and random francais thrown in for good measure. Needs moar listens.

 

[LemonMelon]

Creepy. I like what I hear so far.

 

[SpaceOddity]

Awesome! I can't wait until March 6th.

 

[annie_vox]

It's great!! I loved it the first time I heard it!!

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Great song! I must see this band this year!

 

[ShellBeThere]

.... I must see this band this year!

I feel the same way! I bet they put on a fab show...

cheers...
