Arcade Fire - Porno Lyrics

Why did they take this off spotify? 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Probably the best AF song ever.

Muito foda essa musica

“You can cry I won’t go, you can scream I won’t go...” such haunting lyrics.

The synth sounds like the synths from "Wonderful Christmastime" by Paul Mccartney

Eu espero que você esteja ouvindo isso e se lembrando de tudo, sua DESGRAÇADA!

Eu entendo, cara.

anytime i look up this song, youtube panics and stop suggesting me things on the finder xD

That beat tho

When a song is so sad and/but/so I can't help tapping along to the beat.

90 people are porn stars

i play this once in a blue moon and it aches, i miss where i was back in 2013

Algum brasileiro escuta isso??? meu Deus, que música!!! 2019

the best

it kind of sounds like an older abusive man with a teenager, using his age to pressure her "little boys withe their porno, they don't know what we know"
But i am not sure if he's abusive, "you can cry i won't go" sounds threatening but it can also mean that he won't let her down. Idk.

I don't think it's an abusive guy, I think it's a guy who feels something real for his girl and is aware that most guys are immature (little boys) and don't view women the same as him, he's different from the other guys who would've run at the word go, he wants to stay and fight for his love which makes him feel like something's wrong with him bc most guys wouldn't, I think it's tragic and honest and beautiful at the same time.

I think hes evolved. Beyond social engineering and Spiritual weakness

Still fuckin GENIUS after 6 years! One of the best songs on the album. Win killed it on the vocals with this one!

he sounds so resentful and bitter when he delivers the "porno" line.. love it

#latheorieduy

One of my favorite songs ever. Takes me to an excruciatingly painful memory of a beautiful time and somehow makes it good again.

Demonios.

Did you know that porno is porn in Spanish?

So seductive but not in a pornographic way ,much deeper.....

sexy beat; love that depeche mode-esque synth

Gold 👏🏻

this song made me fall in love for them

I love this song!

Why Reflektor it isn't anymore in Spotify? :(

Rights transfer. Being moved to Columbia I think?

Underrated song by AF tbh

The 4:30 mark is fuckin euphoria. Maybe the best minute of music they’ve ever made

I really love all this album

[Verse 1]
Take the makeup
Off your eyes
I've got to see you
Hear your sacred sighs
Before the break up
Comes the silence
I'm talking to you
You say you're over it
But I know
I thought I knew you
You thought you knew me
But now that you do
It's not so easy now
That I know

[Chorus]
You can cry, I won't go
You can scream, I won't go
Every man that you know
Would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno
Oh, I know they hurt you so
They don't know that we know
Never know what we know

[Verse 2]
And all your makeup
Just take it all off
I've got to find you
Before the line is lost
I know I hurt you
I won't deny it
When I reach for you
You say, "I'm over it."
But I know

[Chorus 2]
You can cry, I won’t go
You can scream, I won’t go
Every man that you know
Would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno
Oh, I know they hurt you so
They don’t know what I know
It’s so little that we know

[Verse 3]
But the cup it overflows
Little boys with their porno
But this is their world
Where can we go?
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Makes me feel like something's wrong with me
Can you see me?

[Bridge]
You can cry, I won't go
You can scream, I won't go
Little boys with their porno
Little boys with their porno
Makes me feel like something's wrong
It's the only world we know

[Outro]
Yeah, something's wrong
Little boys with their porno
And boys they learn
Some selfish shit
Until the girl
Won't put up with it
On and on and on we go
I just have to know
I'm not over it
I'm not over it
You say love is real
Like a disease
Come on tell me please
I'm not over it
I'm not over it
Wait

The first half of Reflektor is very very good. But the second half together with this song is a masterpiece.

shiverssssssss!!!

Reminds me of summer heath..

I just saw them live 2 months ago like to the DAY and I just gotta say.......EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THEM LIVE! Like i've always been a HUGE fan but that shot just BLEW me away....I still cant get over it. They are THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD!!!! And I never thought i'd be saying this! The new songs on E*N come through SO much better live....It was the most beautiful thing i've ever been a part of :) Right in front of Win and Regine the whole fucking show :)

It's so underrated it should be a CRIME!

best song of their catalogue

like si vienes del video de german xdd

Must remember to include "Arcade Fire" in my YouTube search next time :|

The entire song is so classy and sexy.  But the last thirty seconds always gives me chills even after hearing this song over 50 times.  The magic of Arcade Fire

feeeels belly good

perfect song!

You say love is real
Like a disease
Come on tell me please
I'm not over it
I'm not over it

One of their best. You can hear the James Murphy influence comin' through too

"And boys they learn some selfish s**t until the girl won't put up with it. On and on and on we go..."

Such an exquisitely mournful song. Emotionally powerful. The muted cymbal crashes always grab my attention. Don't know why. They just do.

Just a beautiful, somber song. I can't stop listening to it.

the lyrics of this song...fucks me up

Damn good song is...

Some touches from Kraftwerk...

wow, best thing ever

will we only be heard if we are porno til death?

Excellent masterpiece \../

A self-centered, abusive man's relationship with a beautiful and emotionally vulnerable woman. In some ways, the lyrics remind me of straight man who is in love with a transgender woman and is too insecure to take the relationship seriously or treat her with respect and he hates himself for it and takes it out on her. Or the same narrative but with a prostitute.

In some ways, you should have kept that to yourself. Not every song is so deep and only directed at some obscure suffering isolated head case.

It's about a man who is devoted to his woman in a world of disposable relationships and he feels different, a separation between man and immature men "little boys with their porno" - he's not.intetested in superficial and quick fixes. He wants his woman, natural and as she is. That's it really. It's deep but you gone and got to a whole new level of deep lol

Sounds like Wuthering Heights

This hurts in a beautiful way

Strangely beautiful

@The Grafton Fridays on the official music vid someone mentioned it resembling depeche mode, and the little synth stabs kinda remind me of policy of truth a tiny bit. i recommend you give the violator and ultra albums a listen 🌹

i love AF's funky stuff (edit: and update, i know they're seen as predominantly indie but i'm tired of arguing with people about whether or not they qualify as alternative synth pop and a myriad of other stuff.. it's kind of obvious here)

These lyrics are half baked(90% of their lyrics are honestly and im a huge fan) but the fucking beat and the melody and cadence are so fucking amazing.

The lyrics are great! What are you smoking? ;)

Just Another Guy The lyrics are awesome, what are you talking about?

Yes. Complain. It's not like your gonna elaborate.

This doesn't sound like porno.

Possibly the best song they've ever written and they've written some of the best songs of
the last 20 years

My now ex-wife and I, both big AF fans, were starting to fall apart around the time Reflektor was released. This song is extremely close to the bone.

ı guess this song summarizes it all...

Same...

Same...

Dude seriously me too. End of an era when this came out.

Damn! I bet this song brings you so many memories that may hurt and yet you still keep listening to this cuz you cant say no to this song.

why so underrated???? to me, this is the best song from reflektor

and joan of arc

For me, this is their best song, period.

teşekkürler<3

Right? It doesn't even show up in auto-complete when you type it into YouTube's search bar.

could not agree more

so soft core hardcore

Weed, beer, view and the truth of this song in front of yours eyes comes one with all of your experience...

Hell yeah! the perfect combination.Just get lost in your thoughts while listening to this song.

one of the best songs why theres no live video???

I fucking love this song

This song hard as fuck

What do you mean the lyrics aren't "Little boys and Digiorno"?

It's so good I just wanna fucking dance.

love it

This song is a porno

Great when you're blindly listening, but the more you analyse the worse it feels?

We really dug your video. You must make more

I love this song it's such a shame it's not very well know.

ones smart enough to have been touched by it and the many that have not, nor will ever know about its' existence, is what makes it awesomer

You can cry, I won't go
You can scream I won't go
Every man that you know
Would have run at the word go
Little boys with their porno
Oh, I know they hurt you so

Perfect Song...

my fav from reflektor

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfecta *_*

You like good music. We like great music. Check out our channel and subscribe if you enjoy what you hear.

Let us know what you think.

Todas las canciones de ese disco son muy buenas, pero esta es la mejor! <3

This song IS sex

The last 15 seconds make this song perfect!!

so true

Are there any videos of them performing this live?

+israel r8 apparently and unfortunately no

Holy god this is beauuuutiful!!!

I don't think I've ever heard an Arcade Fire song that I didn't like.

Joan Of Arc, Infinite Content, Infinite_Content

that's what I thought while listening this album

I hate every song on Everything Now except Creature Comfort.

@Isaac joan of arc what the actual fuck

@That One Guy Yeah, sadly Everything Now was a pretty clear step down from all past 4 albums. Which is saying a lot because I don't really like their Funeral era stuff and can still appreciate it so much more than Everything Now.

Awesome song, the 2 x key change climaxes are like porn in their own right :)

4:25-5:25

purity of sexuality?
dafuq is that nowadays!?

@***** no prob, bob. 

I feel like Porno is the sequel to Crown of Love from Funeral, but that's just my opinion and what I think. Like, I feel that Win's character in Porno is the same as his character from Crown in Love, what do you guys think?

Yeah, Porno's so underrated, but that and Hey Orpheus are my faves from Reflektor

Lol what? Happy and hopeful?

My favorite of theirs.

this song <3

this album is a bit shaky but this song is perfect.

Reflektor is pretty badass!

I bought Funerals the day it came out and I bought this the day it came out. This album makes Funerals sound bland and boring to me now.

Gordon Barber idk.. I think this album and Funeral are pretty much tied, albeit very different types of music. Still very artistic and stunning. Followed closely by Neon Bible. I liked Suburbs but it's definitely my least favorite. It's probably the most vanilla indie rock by them

Reflektor is a masterpiece, in my opinion is better than Neon Bible

you're the one shaking, the album is perfect lol

this is genuinely dope, i can't stop listening to this song

My favorite pole dancer, stripteases away as a listen to this song.

dobrze koleszka pstryka..

+Pol Skols poloczki to my. jej

Pol Skols piękne

This is a fucking masterpiece 😻

This is the most depressing shit. Ever.
It's not like this, not exactly.

You're some hypocrite mate hahaha

+Graham Butler Breen im hipocrite too so im with damien. sorry. being hipocrite is good when u know it.

+Graham Butler Breen we're all hypocrites lad

Whats "not like this" love? Lol, whats it like then?

that's the way it's supposed to be... the "little boys with their porno" (media overconsumption, instant gratifaction, unrealistic expectations of shit including the human body) ruined what he had or *thought* he did, or the perception of it at least i suppose

i know i hurt you i won't d'ney it

"Makes me feel like something's wrong with me... Can you see me?"

i need this album ;-;

Five years on, have you got the album?

Favourite on this album
