I saw them on the Infinite Content tour and they really know how to play to an arena. But it's when you hear the stripped back versions of songs like this you realise just how good they are. Best band in the world as far as I'm concerned.
a masterpiece like we used to wait deserves a stripped-down performance, just so we can marvel at the individual craftsmanship that coalesces into such an unforgettable whole. sound opinions, you rock.
I used to write I used to write letters I used to sign my name I used to sleep at night Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brain But by the time we met By the time we met The times had already changed So I never wrote a letter I never took my true heart I never wrote it down So when the lights cut out I was lost standing in the wilderness downtown Now our lives are changing fast Now our lives are changing fast Hope that something pure can last Hope that something pure can last It seems strange How we used to wait for letters to arrive But what's stranger still Is how something so small can keep you alive We used to wait We used to waste hours just walkin' around We used to wait All those wasted lives in the wilderness downtown Ooooo we used to wait Ooooo we used to wait Ooooo we used to wait Sometimes it never came (we used to wait) Sometimes it never came (we used to wait) Still moving through the pain I'm gonna write a letter to my true love I'm gonna sign my name Like a patient on a table I wanna walk again Gonna move through the pain Now our lives are changing fast Now our lives are changing fast Hope that something pure can last Hope that something pure can last Ooooo we used to wait Ooooo we used to wait Ooooo we used to wait Sometimes it never came (we used to wait) Sometimes it never came (we used to wait) Still moving through the pain We used to wait We used to wait We used to wait We used to wait for it We used to wait for it Now we're screaming Sing the chorus again We used to wait for it We used to wait for it Now we're screaming Sing the chorus again I used to wait for it I used to wait for it Hear my voice screaming Sing the chorus again Wait for it Wait for it Wait for it
They should do this more often. Win his voice shines here.
His voice really does sound great here.

Definitely. They put on a great show in Boston 2018. I also love their acoustic Joan of Arc and We Don't Deserve Love that are on here.
Arcade fire songs really touch ur soul
Ikr? From the minute it started I was like damn...
@@xx_naasson_xx I missed the intensity of the original.

This acoustic version speaks to my nostalgic soul
I checked my mailbox after watching this. So good!!!
Best version ever.
Right? Yet the views are startlingly low. I like this slowed down version.
who's still waiting 2020?
I really love Win's voicein this version.

I used to write
I used to write letters
I used to sign my name
I used to sleep at night
Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brain
But by the time we met
By the time we met
The times had already changed
So I never wrote a letter
I never took my true heart
I never wrote it down
So when the lights cut out
I was lost standing in the wilderness downtown
Now our lives are changing fast
Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something pure can last
Hope that something pure can last
It seems strange
How we used to wait for letters to arrive
But what's stranger still
Is how something so small can keep you alive
We used to wait
We used to waste hours just walkin' around
We used to wait
All those wasted lives in the wilderness downtown
Ooooo we used to wait
Ooooo we used to wait
Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came (we used to wait)
Sometimes it never came (we used to wait)
Still moving through the pain
I'm gonna write a letter to my true love
I'm gonna sign my name
Like a patient on a table
I wanna walk again
Gonna move through the pain
Now our lives are changing fast
Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something pure can last
Hope that something pure can last
Ooooo we used to wait
Ooooo we used to wait
Ooooo we used to wait
Sometimes it never came (we used to wait)
Sometimes it never came (we used to wait)
Still moving through the pain
We used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait for it
We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming
Sing the chorus again
We used to wait for it
We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming
Sing the chorus again
I used to wait for it
I used to wait for it
Hear my voice screaming
Sing the chorus again
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
