Metric - Gold Guns Girls, acoustic version from the Raw Side of... Song available on Metric album Fantaisies & their Plug In Plug Out EP. For more information, check out www.ilovemetric.com
You finally joined the party I've listened to this version 526 times at least since it came out (plug in, plug out ep). The "acoustic" (I'd call it classical) version of this rock/indie song showcases and focuses on the incredible creativity in Haines' brain to write this "simple" masterpiece about humankind's unending appetite for destruction. Massive talent. Cannot be overstated
I love this band's immense versatility, their ability to re-interpret a song which was originally driving and forceful electronic rock, and create this subtly understated piece of acoustic magic. Emily's voice and her mellow piano, as well as Jimmy's softly whispering guitar, meld to form something entirely unique and utterly heartfelt. This is music.
A fair amount of songs created acoustically. Then 20 layers added on after the fact. Would not be surprised if this is the original version of the song.
My tears came right when her vocals began. Tears for beauty! Great passion in Emily's voice and beautiful melody with piano. Perfection! Love this version!
I don’t mind the upbeat guitar on the regular song but this is I agree more powerful Don’t need all the noise to make a great song even greater Just strip it down and enjoy the beauty
@@AngL426 same, I saw her in concert and after the set I overheard her as she left the stage saying she wanted to make sure she did a good job for her grandma that was there and then I seen them walking down the hall and I'm a good eavesdropper and heard her asking if she had a good time it was so sweet😇
You know its a great band when they can sing acoustic and it sounds better than the original recorded song. Great song and fantastic lyrics. Love Metric!
I would imagine this is how the songs start off before they add all of the other layers on the finished records. I love these acoustic versions more than the actual tracks. Fantastic
She is so pretty and what a killer voice. I probably listened to his song 2 dozen times the first day I heard it. I'm just floored at how good this song it.
omg this is my fav song by them. I've never heard this version until today on tv which is the first time i've ever heard them on tv. double omg mind blown
Finding this version of this song just made my day. This is too beautiful to attempt to describe with colorful adjectives... The music speaks for itself.
This is simply amazing.. its a wonder how much a song can change simply based on how its performed. I almost prefer this to the original version- I love these acoustic versions.
Holy Wow. THIS version of THAT song just ripped my heart open…and…made it better all at the same time. I feel like I just wrestled some MAJOR f-ing emotional alligators. And won. Thank you. Thank You!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!! 💚🙏💚
@PURE162 thats beautiful, really. i love when people can truly connect with music on such a deep level. This is why I aspire to become a music therapist.
I firs heard this song in TDU 2(video game), and instantly fell in love with its speed from the music video, but slowing down and changing to acoustic, sounds just as good!:D ;D
The subtle vocals somehow were preserved in the electronic version, the group knew that the heartfelt vocals of the acoustic version must remain in the commercial recording :)
Sounds like Rumi, with a feminine and pretty tone. Anyone agrees! Rumi gas a piece that succinctly translates into "it's enough." I hope I'm right because I love this version of this work.
This is so gorgeous, and so well shot -- but it really pisses me off that the few times we see her hands, she's not playing what we're hearing. It's an amazing performance - but it's those kinds of details that make a film.

it's not a reinterpretation, just an acoustic version

everytime i hear this song, the tears start to drop and i can't stop crying
It usually gets me about four minutes in.
My tears came right when her vocals began. Tears for beauty! Great passion in Emily's voice and beautiful melody with piano. Perfection! Love this version!
ugh I love this song .
I start to cry about an hour before I start listening to it....
I have the say that the acoustic version is MUCH more powerful.
I don’t mind the upbeat guitar on the regular song but this is
I agree more powerful
Don’t need all the noise to make a great song even greater
Just strip it down and enjoy the beauty
Very powerful. Real music. This is a weapon against the non music in the charts designed for the idiots sacrificing themselves for reality 2.0.
I am still loving it now.

Agree
Sounds radically different from the normal studio version. I wish they included on the album. Probably the most beautiful song I've heard them play
this version maybe better than the original because everything is so clear and i really enjoyed it ! thank you !
You know its a great band when they can sing acoustic and it sounds better than the original recorded song. Great song and fantastic lyrics. Love Metric!
real fucking artists. i love them.
I would imagine this is how the songs start off before they add all of the other layers on the finished records. I love these acoustic versions more than the actual tracks. Fantastic
Oh Wow! So much more emotion in this version. Changed the whole song.
A band that makes two different versions of their songs that COMPLETELY change the whole feel or vibe? WHY HAVEN'T I RAN INTO THEM ALL THESE YEARS?!
She writes such good lyrics
Excellent lyrics
Wow. Just... wow. Gave me chills. Amazing.
Miquel - chills let you know you were deeply moved. I love chills. I got them too from this acoustic version.
this cinematographer is really good
She is so pretty and what a killer voice. I probably listened to his song 2 dozen times the first day I heard it. I'm just floored at how good this song it.
Such a beautiful version of their awesome song.
Emily Haines is the genuine article. If I could learn to channel some of this magic I feel like my entire life would be different.
omg this is my fav song by them. I've never heard this version until today on tv which is the first time i've ever heard them on tv. double omg mind blown

Just goes to show you that music has not gone to hell, thank you Metric.
There can't be any better version than this..
Addicted to Metric
Same here Kiersty. I found them late so I am catching up now.
Holy Wow. THIS version of THAT song just ripped my heart open…and…made it better all at the same time.
I feel like I just wrestled some MAJOR f-ing emotional alligators. And won.

wtf, this Voice is so GREAT!!!
Just started playing piano about a month ago, largely inspired by Emily's beautiful playing.
Absolutely astonishing.
Such an amazing band!
Haven't seen chemistry like this since Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham.
Omg wow this song is heaven

Awesomeness at it's best!!!
Beautiful
I really really cry everytime I hear this version of this song
PURE162 me too. #uglycries even

The subtle vocals somehow were preserved in the electronic version, the group knew that the heartfelt vocals of the acoustic version must remain in the commercial recording :)

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!! Κοματαραααααααααααααα!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I heard the original and I thought "this would make an amazing acoustic"
This is a great jam song

This 4:59 just isn't enough... It's never gonna be enough.
gold
i fucking love this song
♥️
Only thing missing from this version is the "couldn't get you off" line and it would be perfect
Perfect is adding it yourself…
This is good
Good song
I don't understand why they don't push this song/version mainstream.
They need to do a full acoustic album and tour it. I love the loud concerts and dancing but damn the chills I get from these types of performances.
Lover❤💙💚💛💜💓💔💕
Hah. I love how at the end you guys ask if that's good. Yeah. I think it's good.
THUMBS UP FOR METRIC.
Fcking amazing!!!!
the intro piano reminds me of the interstellar soundtrack
been thinking the exact thing, have you listened to interstellar in full or una mattina??
Now I just need this sheet music... o.o
Sounds like Rumi, with a feminine and pretty tone. Anyone agrees! Rumi gas a piece that succinctly translates into "it's enough." I hope I'm right because I love this version of this work.
Wow.
This is so gorgeous, and so well shot -- but it really pisses me off that the few times we see her hands, she's not playing what we're hearing. It's an amazing performance - but it's those kinds of details that make a film.
SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I like their acoustic versions a lot better
I regret that I am only now discovering this in 2022.
From the other side of the world and the other side of history, Rumi responds with a nod - ما را بس
Loveee
Sweet oldy
Does anyone have the sheet music to the piano parts or a MIDI of something similar on the piano?
+wafflestompboi Try "Ultimate Guitar"
I want more and more and more and more
Cant find this version in Spotify or Apple Music !
Damn, this band is good.
