- An amazing performance from one of the best bands I've ever seen live!!..
This was taken from their last Letterman performance while nearing the end of their Funeral tour.. - Jak na to + styl
every performance is like they got together before it and said "ok, guys, let's do our best performance ever". It's like they never get tired of doing this, true love and dedication
I was there in the audience and seen this live. Then went to the hotel and watched it again that night. Very good ...
+Stan F Wah? You lucky f*cker
sweet brah !
I remember watching this with my dad and we just stared at each other in awe. They've been my favorite band since.
That sounds like a great moment!
This album and performance was16 years ago so that makes me a million years old. I am shvitizing just watching. Loved them then and now, it's 2021 and I remember when they set a new standard for passion.
holy shit. Can't believe how old this is. I used to watch this alll the time.. almost ten years.
Holy shit 2006 was almost ten years ago what the fuck
Fuck me, that is really hard to believe. But yeah, 10 years ago.
I would have been 3 when this video was released... oh god.
remember how 2006 was almost 10 years ago? Good times
what is your point ? You are old ?
.... freaking Win Butler.
Just saw them this weekend in Montreal, possibly the best band I have ever seen live!
I just knew that they must've made a Letterman appearance! My kids (6 & 4-1/2) absolutely love this song! and call it "the song that makes us go crazy" because when I put it on, they go running around laps all over the house. Their enjoyment of this song captures what Arcade Fire have on this album, purely genius melodies with perfectly balanced instrumentations and vocals with raw emotion! One of the best songs ever recorded, though not be recognized by radio, at least in this generation.
Best experience is when you see it live instead of behind the TV. Television cannot capture the rawness of their performences. Glad to say I saw them twice and had the opportunity to meet Win & Co after one of the Montreal shows years ago when they played in the crowd for their encore.
I saw this band live, it was the best live performance I've ever seen. Not even my favorite bands perform as well live. So much energy. If you haven't seen them live you have no idea.
This is the performance that really turned me on to the band. One of the best Letterman live acts ever, in my opinion. I loved the guy beating the beating the drum! I can't seem to get tired of seeing this performance.
Happy Arcade Fire won the grammy. However, they should have won it with this album(Funeral) first. It's a freakin' masterpiece!
You know a band is good when they sound better live than they do on the album version...I was blown away...
My introduction to Arcade Fire was when U2 would play Wake Up before they came out on stage during the 2005 How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb tour....I became hooked and still remember the goosebumps hitting the moment I heard it hit when we saw U2 in Chicago 2005
Half of the people that use the word "over-rated" don't know the exact definition of the word. Arcade Fire are quite under-rated in a way.
A Grammy begs to differ
Someone thinks they can play, so yes they are greatly over rated.
Flacid House booooooo
Captain Acoustic they kinda blow

I've never really listened to this band before, until today. I love it when u stumble across a band and just know instantly that ur really gonna get into them.
well that was brutally amazing
It's like the whole band camp got together and formed a group. Good stuff!
Arcade Fire are the saviours of modern music.
I hope all of you have the absolute pleasure of seeing them live. I saw them at Bonnaroo this year and I want to relive that moment forever.
I think of that gig nearly everyday lately.
I saw them at Voodoo festival in New Orleans about 5 years ago and it was life changing. As soon as concerts open up again I am going to their first show.
This song is an all time great, and makes one said knowing the heights Arcade Fire reached so early on before flaming out like a shooting star.
Dont panic something is cooking.
Hey everyone... so glad you enjoyed this upload!!
when I saw this on Letterman originaly it gave me chills and I knew I had to get it and post it. I actually even EQed the audio a little as well.
Please buy the new album "Neon Bible" and if you don't have "Funeral" go back and buy that as well (
It was an instant classic for me and will go sdown in my top 10-20 albums of ALL time).
peace..
Wenz..
This performance got me into the AF. Now my favourite band of all time. Cheers mate
The best music comes out of Canada.
Holymakinaw hard to argue that - per capita anyway.
And the UK
Win butler is American and regine is Haitian so it’s not all Canada at all
The beat music of all time comes from the USA and the UK
@@sambt123 Meh. I said "to come out of Canada". And Montreal is where the band formed, played, & started recording. Hence.......OUT OF CANADA.
they are playing like thier whole career depends on this sole performance!! just great.
Who's still listening in 2021 💛
I always have to put coat on when watching this video, to account for the goosebumps
So much power... I miss this kind of Arcade Fire a bit
What I love the most in Arcade Fire is their personality... and that shows not only in the nostalgic feeling behind their music, but also in their clothes, their attitude, their energy. They seem to have a reminiscence of gothic in them, but it goes beyond that... To me, this makes them one of the very best bands to appear since 2000.
With bonus Owen Pallett. Brilliant.
Saw them last night in Montreal, excellent show.
So sweet. I love how there are so many members. Makes the performance really lively with all the different personalities. YA ARCADE FIRE!!!
Four years ago and now they are in top best of always. They deserve it so much, they love what they do with a passion and it comes across. I think they are brilliant, Going to see them in Cardiff, Wales, December - can't wait!
3:50 " you've been Lied to"!!!!!!
Awesome!
So incredible. Such a spiritual band
Amazing!! Everytime I listen to this song I feel alive and this version rules!!
This performance was the first time I heard Arcade Fire, so all the people calling me a hipster and saying I jumped on some bandwagon can shove it. Been listening to them since 2006.
in all fairness, isn't saying you were into them way before the bandwagon so much more of stereotypical "hipsterism?"
Wrath of Tron I have no idea. I don't know anything about the tenets of hipsterism.
+DesertArizona So you're saying... you liked them before they were cool?
How very non-hipster of you.
It's so hipster bandwagon jumper-like of you to make such a point and 2006 is pretty late considering they came out in 2002/2003
win is so pretty here
this is the song that first got me interested in them 4 years ago. theyve been my favorite band since! funeral kept me alive on many long family car trips!!!
I got to see Arcade fire live in concert in 2006. One of those huge festivals with 50 bands. At the time I was not a fan of theirs. So, seeing them live, I did not appreciate their music. It was not until after that I bought their music, when I could understand it. I wish I did before the concert. Because I could remember the experience better. I LOVE this song, they played it. But I barely remember.
Does anyone else find it funny when Win tries to play a guitar at 1:02 xD
- playing - Oh wait, lookie here! It says "Flip to use"... Oh, Okay, then.
Love it
He's doing it to keep beat without making noise.
At 1:06, instructions unclear!
ABORT MISSION ABORT
I believe he knew exactly what he was doing.
arcade fire are a fantastic band, i could watch this clip over and over.
goosebumps, everytime when I hear this song
2018 anyone?
Camera focuses a little too heavy on the percussion rather than the amazing strings. That aside, another amazing Letterman musical performance.
Proud to be from Montreal, Best city in the world !!!
Here, Here ! Well put !
the pebbles that started an avalanche
Back when Win's voice was great and the band's energy was still high. Amazing!
bestr late night tv performance ever. i had this saved on my dvr a couple years ago. when he strums the back of his guitar... win also has the best whoo in the biz
one of the best bands i've seen in my few short years but this brings me back!! CRACKING TUNE!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!!!
u alive?
2:13 wtf Will
It's a great thing to think how the fact that they are a rock band using classical instruments could seem pretencious but somehow they made it (from the beggining to nowadays) appear really natural.
Absolutely amazing performance! :)))
the best band i've ever seen live. it's great fun to listen the music and the show the make - very nice :)
3:44 xD Régine
Arcade Fire die neuen TALKING HEADS?
Amazing performers, great, skilled musicians.
just.. amazing.
2018? Anyone?
2019 bitch
I can do better than that
Must have been Talking Heads fans - that is great though original enough.
Best description of this awesome band ever
i saw these guys not to long ago and it was the greatest experience of my life, after the show they just hung out for a whi;le and talked and signed autographs it was amazing...win and company are the best band ever!!!
violinist didn't get the memo
why would you even compare Devo and Arcade Fire? The comparison makes ZERO fucking sense
Really, really impressive. Love'em
Chicago here I come all 3 shows - The PASSION of this band
Pretentious? Moi?

Probably one of the best performances on Letterman!
There aren't words for describe what I feel when I hear this song....
Creep dripped with emotion, sure, but Exit Music still raises goosebumps all these years later, and even Wolf at the Door stuns with its pure fearfulness.
gives me goose bumps
I saw Arcade Fire live a few months ago... amazing.
pure brilliance
Arcade Fire is the best thing that ever happened to indie music!
I love the beginning and end to the song on this live version, im so lucky im getting to see them at Leeds festival :)
I really dig this #! I like the unification in this band...they play well together.
