"Gimme Sympathy" Lyrics :::
GET HOT
GET TOO CLOSE TO THE FLAME
WILD OPEN SPACE
TALK LIKE AN OPEN BOOK
SIGN ME UP
GOT NO TIME TO TAKE A PICTURE
I'LL REMEMBER SOMEDAY
ALL THE CHANCES WE TOOK
WE'RE SO CLOSE TO SOMETHING
BETTER LEFT UNKNOWN
I CAN FEEL IT IN MY BONES
GIMME SYMPATHY
AFTER ALL OF THIS IS GONE
WHO WOULD YOU RATHER BE
THE BEATLES OR THE ROLLING STONES
OH SERIOUSLY, YOU'RE GONNA MAKE MISTAKES, YOU'RE YOUNG
COME ON BABY PLAY ME SOMETHING LIKE HERE COMES THE SUN
DON'T GO
STAY WITH THE ALL UNKNOWN
STAY AWAY FROM THE HOOKS
ALL THE CHANCES WE TOOK
WE'RE SO CLOSE TO SOMETHING BETTER LEFT UNKNOWN
I CAN FEEL IT IN MY BONES
GIMME SYMPATHY
AFTER ALL OF THIS IS GONE
WHO WOULD YOU RATHER BE
THE BEATLES OR THE ROLLING STONES
OH SERIOUSLY, YOU'RE GONNA MAKE MISTAKES, YOU'RE YOUNG
COME ON BABY PLAY ME SOMETHING LIKE HERE COMES THE SUN

@@nohemiolivares555 nice no
Amazing show thanks for playing this
Love the Doomscoller... But this vid is such fun on the switcher-ooh
It's March 2021 and I just discovered this band a week ago. I am completely in love with them. I've heard every single song of theirs available on Spotify and now I'm watching their videos on TH-cam. They have this air of hope around them. They make me feel hopeful and understood. Their music is just so heartwarming. I'm very glad I found them.
I want people to never stop discovering this song. It's so good.
Like where have you been all my life??? I know the feeling well.
Hey Metric are awesome, check out Chvrches, Stand Atlantic, Yours Truly, Grimes, Baby Metal, Redhook, Paramore, Alison Wonderland, Purity Ring, Hatchie, if you like this alternative stuff. :)
Go see them live sometime you will love them even more.
Same they are the best
Still love this song in 2024
Nothing beats falling in love with a band all over again.
+Scary7064 what about discovering a new band?
Crimson Vulpes That is great as well. There are new bands coming out of the wood work everyday. TH-cam, Soundcloud and Band of the Day App are great places to get your ears on bands you wouldn't normally encounter.
try mother mother
the numbers of hours walking in the cold but not alone Metric with me!
Over and over again
This song brings back so much nostalgia, even after all these years it’s still so catchy
Same 💯
true
I feel like you're smarter than u lead on because it's one thing to leave a comment but your comment is above other comments that have way more likes. I leave a comment everywhere too but it just usually goes in the pile. I think you're doing something to at least have yours be seen more likely than anyone else's which is why you get the "i see you everywhere" reaction you get, also i don't care so much for this band im just looking for new music
@@XZ-III I don’t understand what u just said but trust me this band is worth listening to
oh my god you are also here
“We’re so close to something better left unknown” will be humanity’s epitaph
More like we found something better left unknown
Oh how true this statement is gonna be..
☢️🚀💥🛸👽🦠🪖💣🔫🌡️🌪️🔥❄️🌊☄️
truly. reminds me of Cats Cradle.
@Brendon Casarez what is this something that is better left unknown? Unsure if I ought to be asking but ...
I love the simple music videos where it just has the band playing.
I love your avatar. Bioshock infinite!
Edmilson Rocha Lima should I buy that game...?
***** definitely yes! and DLC ar as good as the main game. Its a shame that you have to pay for them but its worth it
Legs please dont forget the legs
Why isn’t this band a bigger deal?
She talks about anxiety and stuff...but in every video she seems so confident, like oozes confidence as the camera follows her, you wanna be her
You'd be amazed at what playing music on stage will do for someone's confidence.
Lots of great singers and actors have major anxiety issues. They can deal with it when they’re on stage or on camera, so you’d never suspect, but watch them just trying to have a conversation with someone they don’t know, and they’re suddenly the world’s biggest introvert.
@@rockoperajon I used to deal with very bad social anxiety, but for some reason I never had trouble performing on-stage. Same thing when it comes to dancing, moshing or stage diving at other bands' concerts. Music just removes my inhibitions I guess.
As Pete Townshend once wrote, the greatest motivator of the artist in me is my insecurities. He wrote that on that 1993 album Psychoderelict. A brilliant but flawed album the draws upon his experiences as an artist and from his many projects that failed to bring to light, like lifehouse.
I'd like to thank that one person on Yahoo Answers who recommended this song to me. I'll never know who they were because their account was private and their username just showed up as a question mark, but it's a really good song and thank you.
Now this is what the internet was made for, making the world a better place
I discovered this on Reddit
2024 love ❤❤
My only regret was not listening to this band some years back when I had the chance. So many years wasted!!!!
So I guess 2009 wasn't too late after all!
What a bitch
Imagine being me and just NOW finding their music. Fuck.
Same! I only recently discovered them
Thats me, exactly now in 2021. 😣😣😣
I get it finally. This song was about overcoming everything she went through and coming out on top and being happy about it. There is nothing wrong about achieving your goals when all you've ever had was doubt or being scrutinized for who you were , in the past, future, that you became what you were meant to be. And this song shows it!
In 2021, after so much pain, so much death, still here, asking you to gimme sympathy before the end. Here comes the sun, I know, it will come, yeah. Thank you Metric!
The most under rated song of all time! She be up there with the best ever written. Can't help but dance as soon as the first chord is heard.
I'm gonna see metric in July in Peterborough Canada
Free concert
I'm very old but when I was a kid I used to fantasize about being in a band where everyone was super talented and we all liked/loved each other and the lead singer was gorgeous, had style, a bit of wicked attitude and miles of talent. This video makes me feel that way. I want to be in this band. Just the way she comes toward the stage... so excited to be with her guys and ready to really put on a show!
I miss when Canada had a proper music scene... I miss OG Much Music. When Canadian art/culture was unique and special and youth really followed it... Remember seeing bands like Metric, Bedouin Soundclash, Alexis etc in College and it was just a great time. Still great canadian bands out there, but they don't get the recognition they deserve, by other canadians.
Check out 'The Beaches'. Awesome Canadians!
I've only recently discovered this song in 2019 or 2020. Really chokes me up for some reason.
same bro
How the hell are these guys not a major hit in the mainstream?
lol loser
This band has been with me since i started middle school 14 years ago.. Thank you for keeping me here and helping me through everything, Happy 50th Emily 💜
One of my favourite videos of all time. SO trippy and clever.
1:04 I love the way she dances!!!
Canadian music is underrated it's sooo good. so many good bands yet in the USA all we hear is the same shit from the same losers all the time. Metric is awesome! Love it!
I love this song. I found it years ago and yet every time it comes on my playlist, it seems new and exciting. I have 3000 songs on daily rotation and this is the only track that does that for me. Just brilliant!
Perhaps THIS Fresh "New and Exciting" Sensation you're appreciating occurs because Emily's Songwriting seems to Capture, Personify and Engage us, METRIC's Listeners?
We seem Open and SO Easily Lead by her storyline and identify?
It's THIS Comparative Vision: Two MONSTER BANDS that have surely SHAPED US... [historically]
Any Thoughts?
Curious... As This Song's Story sure Draws me in, Too...
Thank You for considering my impression...
Thank You
Should I play the sympathy card? timothy lawsuit.... 6 months hospital... false arrest 6 months hospital.... stole a bottle of water/SOURCE INVISIBLE GOD ABOVE Y2 MUTATION..... $1 lawsuit all damages to charity.... 5% to Timothy to make amends. congratulations on becoming a decamillionaire given the U.S. Government and hospital systems would gladly settle for 50 mil... no hush money.... no settlement... trial! deposition.... Eric Wilson plaintiff. U.S. Government defendant.. arrest Miranda charges rights..... expunge mock trial Media Court House unconstitutional... not present and a violation of My 6th amendment rights....
This song makes me feel very emotional... It's not even a sad song it's just the vibe of it and the power of Emily's words trying to lift up our spirit after a hard time, having experience something bad, or even when you are at a state where you can't see any light.... 'after all this is gone, who would you rather be?' It's as if she tells you to look forward for the better days and she reassures you that whatever is happening to you now will pass and urges us to focus on the exciting part that awaits.
This is one of the many aspects of this song!

This song kept me from killing myself for about a four-year period between 2015 and 2019. It remains a source of life in 2020. Thank you, Metric.
The kids keep making me cry like I'm twelve and had a skinned knee. Thank you!
have been listening to metric for 10 years and i keep discovering such great music.......music keeps me alive....dont ever let go! you dont know what you would miss!
I love Metric they give me a sense of freedom. When I feel really heavy. People who I love can say simple things like they care of my well-being, that's how simple I am and they will have my attention. Then it takes one mean act and I add my twist and Na I don't roll that way. I'll roll the right way with you. Idk anymore. I just realised I'm a forgiving person. If I consider you I mean it. If I say I love you I mean it. I'm not perfect but I never expected you to be either. FML

Emily is gorgeous and crazy talented. Amazing, real woman.
I fell in love with Metric during the dark days of covid. She gave me hope with a banger of a song. She is absolutely gorgeous and this is a great video and song. I love the way she moves her shoulders and legs with her unique dancing style.
They never signed to a record company and mix and produce their albums with clever guitarist James Shaw. They are all multi-instrumentalists -
Stay Independent !!!!
❤ 🇨🇦
The part when the kids start running out the open door with the butterfly wings never fails to hit me RIGHT IN THE FUCKING FEELS.
Like, I legit start crying. Nobody's cutting onions or any weak-ass emotions-avoiding bullshit like that; this just sucker-punches me right in the soft, warm part of me that still defiantly exists despite 34 years of a not-easy life and a fucking global pandemic. Like a Roadrunner cartoon, it ignites a powder trail straight to my heart and causes it to explode in a burst of "holy shit, all is not lost".
Stay safe, kids. You're all we got now.
Same, bout made me burst into tears too
I can't believe this is 17 years old though, its crazy. I was just a kid when I listened to this and she was playing shows in Victoria. My first show ever was Hot Hot Heat when I was 13 as well. So much fun music back then.
If you knew what it really meant (mk ultra Monarch program) you'd be pissed instead. And the kids at the end is disturbing, knowing some musicians sacrifices children in satanic rituals to get what they want. They're all going down now.
@@billymilligan1045 Are you lost?
That said, Epstein didn't kill himself (and Ghislaine Maxwell isn't long for this world, mark my words), but don't you fucking dare suggest that Metric is involved with those fuckers without undeniable proof.
Sometimes a great music video is just a great music video. Get offline once in a while.
This is fucking amazing right???
Love Metric.. (72 Y/0 here).
Emily is a superstar without being the Beatles or the Rolling Stones!
This song is actually pretty healing. Thanks metric for this cool piece :)
Can we please get an HD release of this video?!
I love it when she does that with her body
Click here to reply The drummer has one hell of a view
+Dreams Undesired is* ;p
+Dreams Undesired Lol no he can't see anything with that hair
+Click here to reply Is there a name for that dance move? I know I've seen it before
+Click here to reply Probably because it's showcasing her birthing hips
I can't get enough of this song....
Just imagining the quick costume changes behind the scenes...
+David Ding God bless Vimeo
+David Ding thanks for the link. really cool to see the video from that perspective
David Ding Yeah, thanks for that. I had been wondering.

Bring on the Doomscroller Tour. Can't wait!!!!!
Their songs are really rich and textured. I like these guys a lot.
Damn I remember when this song was new it's over a decade old now
I somehow NEVER forgot this videoclip. It's engraved in my memories. The video and the line "Play me something like 'Here Comes The Sun'". The children with fairy wings at the end was somehow even more memorable than everything else, there's something so pure to it.
*_This sound... Only Metric can produce, her voice and their sound are serious synergy. #2018_*
So excited to finally see them live in in the US THIS YEAR!!!! 2022 tour 🎉🎉🎉
Love the way Emily Haines dances. 🤤
Beauty
From the 1:00-1:30 mark- Why hasn't anyone put this part on a 24 hour loop? No CGI. No special effects. No explosions. Just 30 glorious seconds of Emily's gorgeous gams.
Her leg game is just hipnotizing.
"Something" and "Here Comes the Sun" (two Beatles songs) are also referenced ("Come on baby, play me something/ like Here Comes the Sun"). In addition to this, the song takes its title from two Rolling Stones songs, "Gimme Shelter" and "Sympathy for the Devil".
And...back again
This hits the narrow genre of rock I love
can you recommend some more artists that u love? cuz im kinda lost
always love to see it
i remember this song from a game i played years ago. i’m so glad to have finally found it again
Which game?
Haven't heard this song in like a year or two, but it's been playing in my head over the last week or so. Such a great song.
I think this song is talking about how they hope real musicians come back and play something that can really touch the soul. The something better left unknown is the fact that a catchy chorus can sell a song and not real talent.
2020 listen
Our new song ALL COMES CRASHING from our forthcoming album Formentera is out now. ⚡

Under rated band.
Is there an HD version of this?
i remember the first time i listened to them, 12 years ago! it was pure love and this music's album still fascinates me even today 💖
One of my favorite songs.
Emily "killer legs" Hanes...
Ojo con Grace Potter and the Nocturnals ;)
true true very true
Gonzalo Salinas Gotta admire the insight in this comment #sarcasm 🙄
1:17 leggy chick is leggy. I'd be rubbing on those like a pet cat ... omg....
he'll yeah
I love that dance >_
Why doesn’t this song have a hundred million views? Am I missing something?
I can't put into words how much I love this song. Not simply because it is amazing on it's own, but also because of the memories I have linked to it.
I also just "stumbled" upon Metric!!! This and so many other songs are incredible!! and she is STUNNING 😘 I discovered them because I love Brie Larson and I saw her sing BLACK SHEEP by Metric on Scott Pilgrim vs The World a couple weeks ago,, I'd never seen the movie,,, tmi I'm sure 😉
Honestly. I would love to crank up this song at a billion watts and , listen...
Metric is my favourite thing to listen to in the rain.
This song gave me so much relief, years ago. For some reason, her saying: "you're gonna make mistakes, you know," helped me forgive myself. And I decided that I'd rather be the Beatles.
Yes yes YES!!! ⭐
The Beatles were done before they could become a parody of themselves as the Stones have.
Great comment! like ur take on the lyrics and how u applied it to events in ur life. be well my friend :)
@@losthalo428 stop
I went stones.
This music is so flowing and refreshing...
Heard this song for the 1st time 10 years ago when I had decided to leave everything and started traveling. Never been on a plane. Never been out of state. I was scared shitless and this song just pushed me through it.
Wow. I haven't heard this song in probably 7 or 8 years. Still love it!
No comments in 3 years? Still a great song and video.
I am listening this again & again...
Literally I can't love you guys more.
I think we need HD upload of this, please?
Watched them play their first show in Eugene OR last night, Damn was that amazing.
If you are young this is what a cougar is supposed to look like
my boyfriend just shared metric's music with me and now I'm completely in love with their songs, great band! ❤️
i'll never get sick of this song
2009 ahhh good memories brings me song when i was in middle school
I'd rather be Metric.
Evol I’m already Tracer
I so love the bass groove during the hook XD
І знову як 12 років тому: весна і ця пісня змушує кров у венах бігти швидше. Дякую 🎉❤
I remember 4 years back seeing them in concert at some place in NYC. I remember starting a mosh pit, and the girl in front of me was upset because I hurt her foot accidentally, but that wouldn't have happened if she were wearing shoes and not flip flops.
Moshpit?
I know what a moshpit is. But mosh to this? This music puts me in chill mode, I couldn't imagine moshing.
UnknownBastard21
Not all of their songs are "chill."
I was 21 yo and now i'm 35 OMG 😪😭
Oh my god passage of time!
I was 12 when I discovered this song... Man, I don't feel old but this song reminds me we all have young souls
¡Es una de mis canciones favoritas! ¡Me hace sentir mariposas!
Cuando tocaron ésta en versión acústica en el Pepsi Center
Reminds me of being 14 in 2007 listening to 97x
Bra so glad we from Tampa bay
I was working security for a company way back when and she came to edmonton to play for afew hundred people and it was best concert ive heard everyone went nuts when she sang this
One of my fav bands. And their CANADIAN!
WOO HOO!!!!
+Faisal M
They have one American and one dual citizen, I think.
Emily is a dual citizen of the United States (both of her parents are American) and Canada, she was also born in India! Josh (the bass player) is an American, from Texas.
Huh....you learn something new every day
Al fin la pude encontrar!!!!! La escuche en el 2009 en MTV Latino. La busque por años y ahora la encontré
EVERYONE!!!
She's hot.
And talented.
And I think that I speak for everyone when I say:
I'm in love.
"Who would you rather be The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?"
Now, that´s a tought question.
as a beatles fan i rather be the beatles more then the stones
I'd rather be Metric.
Imma be me
Its a question : if you stay togheter like the stones or get separated like beatles. So in a relationship you rather choose to stay and keep at it or go away
Is not about the music or style
The answer is always "David Bowie"
I'm 43 and love this song.
Emily rules!
How come there are more than 300 people dislike this beautiful song?
Had an accident on my birthday and did not recover for 3 months or so. Now I listen to this tune, Thanks METRIC,
hope you are doing well bro
I like the shot of Emily playing the guitar. What is she doing?! :-) It's a very cute video, though. From a cinematic viewpoint, it's clever: one long take that keeps moving so that band members swap places without the viewer noticing. :-)
This song has The Killers vibe and style to it, while maintaining Metric's Identity, pure art
