Such a good song! Is that the new single?

Sweet, I like the choice as a single, if that turns out to be accurate.

One of the few leaked albums I'm trying to refrain from sampling. This is very promising. Seriously, we need more violins in popular music today (really anything to wash away years and years of DMB abuse).

This looks like it's going to be huge everywhere. Commercial stations here in the UK are playing it to death.

I don't know, I'll be surprised if this blows up here in the US. I hope it does really well though and can't wait to buy the album next Tuesday. I'm listening to this song right now and it sizzles so much, I might as well just cook food on my laptop.

Just bought this album, certainly one of this year's best and this single is definitely one of the Top 3 off of the album. I really think this album may be up for a grammy next year....
Either way, great single, great album, definitely recommend buying it. I really like the Killers, and I know how Flowers wanted to have the sound of Springsteen. Well, this album actually does, but add a shit load of instruments and more singers. It cooks.

I hear the Springsteen, too. And a more innate understanding of what Springsteen embodies musically, too, than what the Killers offered us.

I don't understand what was so wrong about "Black Mirror" that it could only be released as something of a "teaser" first single. I love both songs, but it just seems odd that they would pass up a great comeback single for an inferior, yet still very good, second single.

IT WAS #41 but Tool & FOB passed it. It will get there, though.

Arcade Fire Announce New Single On May 5, Merge Records will release the first U.S. single off the Arcade Fire's epic sophomore LP. "Keep the Car Running" comes backed with "Broken Wind" -- which is not to be confused, of course, with 2005 seven-inch cut "Cold Wind" UPDATE: THE SONG IS CALLED "BROKEN WINDOW", NOT "BROKEN WIND". MERGE SENT OUT THE WRONG TRACK NAME. WE WEREN'T MAKING A GRADE SCHOOL JOKE, WE SWEAR! -- and arrives with typically lavish packaging on 7" vinyl.
