Metric - Synthetica Lyrics

2019 here this song is boss at 1.25 speed!

Women are insane. That makes me sad.

AWESOME!!!

Emily is on point in this track, but the real star here is Jimmy. Do yourself a favor: pay really close attention to how Jimmy's guitar work perfectly frames and punctuates Emily's words (particularly that part after Emily finishes singing "everybody begs to be redeemed" and "I got something that no pill will ever kill") . Without Jimmy, this song would be merely good. With Jimmy, this song becomes an anthem. Listen to the live acoustic versions, too! It's a whole different song without synths and amplifiers!

Granted, I just quit my first big-boy corporate job in order to live in a commune with a bunch of anarchists and permaculturists, so maybe this track strikes a chord in me personally.

Nostalgic ass fuck

as a die hard metalhead... i m really enjoying this band...they got a classic vibe and unique vocal tone in their music...it's feel like the 80's music...

Summer Jan 2013, where we are, lost my cell, inside there was a Video of my 4 1/2 yo Daughter, up on the kitchen table, Dancing and Singing this song, now she's 12. Thank you Metric!

She looks like laura pausini

Ayeee! lets go!

What a voice :)

I think I discovered Metric via a cheap (maybe free) label sample I got from Amazon. And to this day, I wonder if and how anyone knows about this band? And they are intriguing and their albums are all worth owning... they show up in my own personal YouTube playlist elsewhere too.

LoL

I d!d the coca in too

= but it wasn't THAT good!=

Always lifts me up!

Emily Haines is the Madonna of Canada

Next opening of Dark on Netflix here.

Fire 2019.

This song always reminds me of the film Brick. They're seperate mediums but they elicit the same emotions and feel.

Great film, great song

I love that movie!

Emily Haines is so hot !

swear she's wifey

Есть кто из 2019? 🖐

They're like the Canadian answer to Depeche Mode.

Thank you for not selling out

Some of us are wild ones, ever under wanted,
I believe
Lining up in the background,
Waiting for the crap shot to be seen
In the shadow of the big screen,
Everybody begs to be redeemed
Hey, I'm not Synthetica
I'll keep the life that I've got
We were never meant to crawl in for the bait,
We never will
I can think for myself,
I've got something no pill could ever kill
Hey, I'm not Synthetica, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got, oh
So hard, hard to resist Synthetica, oh
No drug is stronger than me, Synthetica
We're all the time confined to fit the mold
But I won't ever let them make a loser of my soul
Hey, I'm not Synthetica, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got
I'll keep the life that I've got
I'll keep the life that I've got

Emily has the best legs in the game, hands down

Imo modern day hole sound

I love the band, and I love the song, but I actually kinda loathe the music video. It just feels like a lazy, half-assed attempt at a music video by the director and does such a disservice to the song itself.

Better by far then most of the stuff today . Will always be a fan .

Four Emilys are better than one.

I just saw them in San Antonio this past week and can report that they sound exactly as they did 10 years ago. It's amazing. They put on the best live shows. And i meannnn... LOOK HOW GORGEOUS EMILY IS.

This is one of the most amazing songs i've heard

Some of us are wild ones
Ever underwanted, I believe
Lining up in the background
Waiting for the crap shot to be seen
In the shadow of the big screen
Everybody begs to be redeemed
Hey, I'm not synthetica
I'll keep the life that I've got
We were never meant to crawl in for the bait
We never will

I can think for myself
I've got something no pill could ever kill
Hey, I'm not synthetica, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got, oh
So hard, hard to resist synthetica, oh
No drug is stronger than me, synthetica
We're all the time confined to fit the mold
But I won't ever let them make a loser of my soul
Hey, I'm not synthetica, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got, oh
I'll keep the life that I've got

I really, really love you Emily

this is so fucking good

Multiple Emilys! Very nice!

Whenever she get up close to the screen, my heart just keep raising.

Ive always loved Emily Haines, especially her single stuff, skeletons, knives dont have your back, rowboat, dr.blind, etc sges an inredible solo artist!! Got me through tough times growing up!!

always loved her soft skeleton. shes got an unknown album from 98' i think called cut in half and also double. check it out

She`s so sexy.

That song make me feel so good, just perfect.

This song MUST be a reference to Brave New World, the coincidences are too big

If H&M were a band, it would be metric

I really love this band. She's beautiful and writes beautiful content, lyrics and melodies. Well done

Christopher garcia.legal name won series 7 today i can't believe it all because of cetic cross.

Please accult wallstreet bring teddy in yeah no teddy you died now they have to prpvide the show they promised well newspaper tv station making artwork daily they pick it up mike bloomberg spent all his money there are causes and money goes to nyu

Reminds me of poor Delores from westworld

4 years ago already.... wow

I'm here listening sitting in my car, sleeping in it, waiting for 22 of this month to finally try to go out heroine, half a life screwed for it and an hope for a different direction on life..people get way from drugs , heroine, cocaine and all others u think cool and start doing travels and yogas and things like that..and carpe diem!

people thumb down the video not the song, probably

If there were a song that encapsulated or embodied everything I live for, believe, and value, it would be this one 🤘

This song reminds me so much of the theme to Pole Position. 80s nostalgia.

Metric should be so much bigger because they're so much better than most of what's currently on heavy rotation on the radio these days.

Fox Tones somebody wants to bother me don't care about timers island or institution people absbies only..

Fox Tones babies are a teddy males production heart sva act out.art it the school of visual arts church of silver tiles 4030...

Fox Tones I think you answered your query. They're poppy but not mainstream.

Cheers to that

If you are not Sythectica then can you explain "The Shade" to me, someone, please. Actually make that most of Pagans in Vegas, except Lie Lie Lie, Fortunes, and the Governess.

My favourite Metric song :)

All of your songs are beautiful except youth without youth.
