Honestly!  I'm quite frankly sick and tired of all these (seemingly) older listeners complaining about the advancement of music.  Sorry folks, we're in 2008, check your calender and get with the times or invent a time machine to take you back to your beloved sixties and seventies.  {#Razz}

I think I understand why this follows Libertango. There's that one piece of background that sounds like a continuation of the theme.

Yes its pop, and yes Metric was played to death on the radio, but I still can't get enough of that voice. Amazing live too.

Metric has such a great sound. This is the first I've heard from this album. Time to update the ol' collection!

This band is so over-rated. Emily Haines has talent and her solo album comes out in Canada very soon. Stay tuned, it may be the best move she's ever made...

wtf is right. Since when was RP an oldies, classic rock station? At least we've pinpointed the source of your error and our frustration. Now if you'd kindly seek out one of the hundreds of classic rock stations and leave us in peace...

Likeable tune, and a new band by me.

Nothing here to distinguish it from any number of unmemorable pop songs currently pumping from your local Hot 95 or 97 Jams or the like.

What can I say about the rest of the "live it out" album except "leave it out".
Apart from that, this one song deserves an 8.

I like this album quite a bit, would recommend it. It's all I've listened to in my car for the last three days. I'm a fan of the really crunchy tunes, like Monster Hospital.

Metric is one of those bands who have some pretty cool stuff but just havent gotten it together hit-wise

They are from Canada but many canadians think they are British or American

They have a real funky and quite attractive lead singer who makes parts of my body feel funny

I love songs like "Combat Baby" for example which is a great song that I thought would have break them out

I thought the same - but it is growing on me - kind of sounds like Imogene Heap (the music)

edit: the same meaning doing nothing for him..
