It doesn't surprise me that actual fans of Metric don't really want to comment on this song. I agree with the post above, this is definitely NOT the true sound of Metric. From the straightforward lyrics and the simple melody to the overuse of Emily Haines's high-pitch vocals (which isn't such a bad thing), this is practically the antithesis of Metric's music. Sure, their usual lyrics might sometimes turn out vague, but they play better rock melodies than the ones in this song, and Emily's great vocals could be put to better use than just for this kind of sappy love song.
