"Help, I'm Alive" is the first single from "Fantasies", the upcoming fourth album to be released by the Canadian indie rock band Metric. "Fantasies" will be released on April 7, 2009.
"Help, I'm Alive" was charted as high as #21 on the Canadian Hot 100.
It looks like this song has a good chance to become the first "Metric" song to make an impact in the US radio and from what I know, it didn't even receive an adds date.
Today, it reached top 50 on Mediabase Alternative:
57 48 METRIC Help, I'm Alive 176 127 49 0.695
24 stations playing.

Hmm. I like this even less than "Monster Hospital," which I thought was decent at best. However I thought "Combat Baby" was a damn good song. I guess I'm liking them less and less as time goes on.

Their best single...that being said, I'm not a big Metric fan.
