METRIC LYRICS

They say there’s no time like the present; what they really
mean is there’s no such thing as the present. Five seconds
into the future will be five seconds in the past once you
finish reading this sentence. Life in the modern world so
often boils down to taking comfort in the days of old or
praying for some idealized future. Translated into rock ‘n’
roll, terms, it means you’re either ahead of your time or
past your prime. And we’re cool with that. We like
categories and demographics and timelines because they
allow us not to think; everything can be explained with the
check of a box or a dot on a graph.


But Metric don’t let you off that easy.

Their measures are decidedly cubist: eternal, multi-layered
portraits of instantaneous moments, the luminous blur of More...

    Review about Metric

    Canada | Reviewer: Meggo
        ------ About the song Monster Hospital performed by Metric

    Metric are Canadian. They formed in Toronto, but travel between New York, London, Montreal, and LA

    They are awesome. The singer Emily Haines is also a part of broken social scene, another amazing band.

    Yup.


    NIN? | Reviewer: Ben Fields
        ------ About the song Front Row performed by Metric

    I don't know or really think that this is what this is actually about, but this song reminds me strongly of Trent Reznor at live NIN shows.

    You probably don't understand that, but that's okay. Those shows are good memories for me. :)


    Greenday is a disgrace for the word rock or even punk | Reviewer: Hanges
        ------ About the song Glass Ceiling performed by Metric

    Greenday haha I hope that was a joke, cause I had to laugh :D
    greenday is a total sellout and the lyrics are far worse than any other band that tries to be punk, the real punk is dead my friend
    but neither the less, love this song and the lyrics are awesome too


    amazzin song. <3 :) | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Dead Disco performed by Metric

    i love this song soo much. metric is an amazin band and no they do not sound like combat baby, despite what people say. the lyrics are pretty good too because of the themes of originality and individuality being lost.


    Hustle rose review | Reviewer: SPOCKBOY
        ------ About the song Hustle Rose performed by Metric

    Ahhh Metric.
    Not since I discovered the Beatles in the late 80's have I loved every single track on a CD.
    Metric's music is subtle and powerful, with some of the most clever arrangements and memorable melodies I've ever heard, not to mention the heartfelt and often poignant lyrics.
    Everyone is on board in a Metric song. Everyone is contributing. No one is hanging out in the background until their moment in the spotlight.
    Like the Beatles, each album seems to be an evolution in style and creativity which is a remarkable rarity in light of today's typically empty manufactured garbage.

        ------ About the song Police And The Private performed by Metric

    fighting acutally.. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Combat Baby performed by Metric

    it sounds to me that she's talking about fighting with the guy she loves and she loves fighting with him. she's so desperate for his attention that the only way she can get it is to provoke him. love the song:)


    Well Done | Reviewer: Dylan
        ------ About the song Ending Start performed by Metric

    All the elements of the songs were amazing, and it's my favorite song right now. This song is good enough for a music video, and if they made one, it would probably be very popular. Very well done. I was surprised, it sounded different from the rest of the songs on the CD, but taking a chance with this song was worth it, it's amazing.


    Awesome song by an awesome band | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Monster Hospital performed by Metric

    This song simply is awesome, but I must admit being a huge fan of Death from Above 1979 made me discover the MSTRKRFT remix fast enough. The remix simply is amazing. It hads this little electro-dance touch to the punky feeling of it.


    music | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song White Gold performed by Metric

    this song...there's just something about this song...
    makes me feel as though..the best is yet to come


    don't do it | Reviewer: kris
        ------ About the song Grow Up And Blow Away performed by Metric

    this song is too addicting, don't listen to it more than once. All elements are very well assembled and the sound quality is quite optimal as well.


    Absolutely Great Song! | Reviewer: John LaRocca
        ------ About the song Grow Up And Blow Away performed by Metric

    Extremely captivating lyrics that are perfect for the angelic voice of Emily Haines....I heart METRIC and Emily Haines and Feist too!!!


    Lovely song.. | Reviewer: Paul B.
        ------ About the song Ending Start performed by Metric

    The song is utterly and totally haunting, with Emily's wispy vocals combined with vague yet personal lyrics, and a sleepy, emotional mood. The music seems to drift through your mind and ears; the chord progression perfectly compliments the mood.
    The song is, basicly, completely amazing.


    Totally awesome | Reviewer: E
        ------ About the song Police And The Private performed by Metric

    I love this song, its so awesome, and you just have to listen to it for a while whenever you hear it.


    LILLY ALLEN SINGS LIKE METRIC! | Reviewer: Dan- Brother Of JJ
        ------ About the song Poster Of A Girl performed by Metric

    DID ANYONE SEE LILLY ALEN'S MONSTER HOSPITAL LYRICS? MY BROTHER SUBMITTED THEM BECAUSE HE HEARD HER SING IT ON SPANISH RADIO!


    ripped off? | Reviewer: vanessa
        ------ About the song Moster Hospital performed by Metric

    the only original wor di hear here is monster hospital. the rest she ripped off a movie and the verse "i fought the war but the war won" wasnt that a line in a better song? you know the one that goes " i fought the law but the law one"? well ive never head the singer but i hope she sings well to make up for how short the song lyrics are and how there is too much repetion!


    cool | Reviewer: bee
        ------ About the song Monster Hospital performed by Metric

    I love this song I got it free with NME! ha ha ha and it came with a bunch of other great songs too. DJ champion anyone??


    gffdg | Reviewer: tiw3
        ------ About the song On The Sly performed by Metric

    THIS SONG ROCKS! Grow up and blow away is amazing. old world is a little more mainstream, more electro rock, so as live it out. but the old songs are the best!


    Lyrics of My Life | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song White Gold performed by Metric

    this song remindsme of my life... I actually read the lyrics before I heard the song. I thought it'd be a bit more fast paced... its very sad. I can see it being a happier beat/melody but the lyrics are sad in themselves. I absolutely love this!-Mia W.


    lizzbetthhh, no. | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Dead Disco performed by Metric

    Dead Disco is one of the best songs of the album. And Calculation Theme isn't one. And Dead Disco is not AT ALL the same as combat baby and all the songs on the CD.
