• I haven't been very awesome lately. The question of the day is becoming more and more sporadic. But I'm going to see Owen Pallett tonight woo!

    Question of the day: Do you think any Metric songs would sound awesome with an orchestra?

Yeah, I was just about to ask what happened to Thesaurus Thursday... ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS THURSDAY. Jerkface.

Just kidding =)

Anywho, yes, I can imagine a slow, horror movie style of Gimme Sympathy. It is playing in my mind's eye right now and it's pretty damn epic.

Ooh good question, you're still awesome don't worry. Anything involving complex linguistic thought is too hard for me right now anyways, exams FRIED my brain.

Joey, have you seen the video of Emily and Jimmy playing Gimme Sympathy with Broken Social Scene at Harbourfront last summer? It was kind-of orchestral I guess, there were certainly enough of them!

DEFINITELY "Ending Start". That'd be amazing! I'm listening to it right now and can definitely imagine just how spectacular that'd be.

I bet an orchestral version of London Halflife could sound really simple and adorable
:)

My first thought was Blindness. I'm not really sure how that would work, but it's something I'd very much like to see/hear. But I second Alex's choice too, Ending Start would be pretty amazing.
=)

That's funny my initial reaction was Blindness too...but then I listened to it and had a hard time actually imagining it while hearing the song.
