Yeah, that one doesn't do much for me, but I loved that video clip of them performing it an elevator, with the percussionist ripping out pages of a magazine in tempo, in lieu of actual percussion.
The only song I don't like on Neon Bible is the title track.

Intervention - Black Waves/Bad Vibrations - Ocean Of Noise. That sequence is as good as about anything off Funeral. But the rest, save for a song or two, aren't nearly as moving.
I still don't know why they reissued No Cars Go after they already reissued the EP. The original was fine, and the Neon Bible version didn't really add anything significant.
I've been thinking about this cover since mentioning it a day or two ago, and thought I'd post in case there are peeps who haven't heard it. Possibly one of the Arcade Fire tracks I've listened to the most.

That song is so amazing and epic, it deserved posterity on a proper album. And I think it works perfectly as a penultimate rocker.

What's the upside of ordering directly from the band
^ The $4.95 cover charge is retaliation against the U.S. for not allowing international access to Hulu. That's what he meant.
