Arcade Fire plays rare unplugged version of We Don't Deserve Love live on BBC Radio 6 Music. London - 12 April 2018 - Tom Ravenscroft's show www.bbc.co.uk/p...
“The Suburbs” provided a time capsule for a generation that could remember a time before The Internet. This song (and album) cap off a thesis for a generation that can remember a time before “Everything Now”. There is so much news, so much useless information that flashes in front of us every single moment, that we are now all part of the din, building a cage around ourselves and walls between the people we know. As we walk in the dark, we have lost the big picture, sacrificing our humanity and love for each other as we seek to fill every moment with more things to consume, consume, consume. “We Don’t Deserve Love” is a song for people that look up, only to find they’ve been left behind. Using the Biblical story about how Mary returned to the tomb of Jesus, only to find that he had already resurrected and moved on; Win Butler goes on a path wondering whether there could be a God that can still love us all despite all our sins. However, that is not the central question he ends with in the end. More importantly, he wants to know Why we don’t deserve love. If there is a God, he wants him to come off his cross and answer him. Arcade Fire albums are now 5-for-5 in terms of life-affirming penultimate tracks. They always know to include a thank you note for the effort you put in listening to their albums. They know you feel ridiculous for caring so much when it’s way cooler to do the opposite. www.google.com/amp/s/genius.com/amp/Arcade-fire-we-dont-deserve-love-lyrics#ampf=undefined
Keep both eyes on the road tonight 'Cause I'm driving home to you Terrible song on the radio Baby, what else is new? You don't want to talk You don't want to touch You don't even want to watch TV You say I can't see the forest for the trees So burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me Keep both eyes on the road tonight 'Cause God knows where I've been Officer please, don't check my breath That ain't my only sin You don't want to talk You don't want to touch You don't even want to watch TV If you can't see the forest for the trees Just burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me Keep you waiting, hour after hour Every night, in your lonely tower Looking down, at all of the wreckage When we met, you never expected And you said, maybe we don't deserve love Maybe…

If ya can't see the forest for the trees, just burn it all down ... and bring the ashes to me.
You think they cant get any better then... Boom

Esta canción llega muy adentro....es muy sentida la melodía....una canción muy humana.
Keep both eyes on the road tonight
'Cause I'm driving home to you
Terrible song on the radio
Baby, what else is new?
You don't want to talk
You don't want to touch
You don't even want to watch TV
You say I can't see the forest for the trees
So burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me
Keep both eyes on the road tonight
'Cause God knows where I've been
Officer please, don't check my breath
That ain't my only sin
You don't want to talk
You don't want to touch
You don't even want to watch TV
If you can't see the forest for the trees
Just burn it all down, and bring the ashes to me
Keep you waiting, hour after hour
Every night, in your lonely tower
Looking down, at all of the wreckage
When we met, you never expected
And you said, maybe we don't deserve love
Maybe…
Beautiful song
Canción mega infravalorada de AF
Amazing
Sublime!
Maravillosamente hermoso
Fucking love this
რავიცი რა გითრათ, საღოლ ძმდაო თქვენ
bold, brave
One person who watched this has no heart.
im the ballet
I wanna smoke pot with Win Butler
I'd rather spend a night dining & drinking copious bottles of wine with Win and Regine and observe what makes them click.
It wasn't until yesterday that I found out the meaning of that. Great page!
