these indie rockers are ready to start
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
Arcade Fire songs for this list we’ve
chosen our entries based on a
combination of the artists fan favorites
and their most commercially successful
songs number 10 sprawl two mountains
beyond mountains
thanks to its inspiring lyrics and
colorful melody this track off Arcade
Fire’s third studio effort has a singing
and dancing along
Regine Shang’s lead vocals and the
band’s carefully crafted instrumentation
are particularly notable for bringing
out the songs emotional impact and
getting us hooked on just the first few
listen
number nine the suburbs
loser
the title cut to Arcade Fire’s the
suburbs can be described as an indie
rock and post-punk revival number that
explores residential life outside a
city’s urban core
written and produced by the band
themselves the single grabs your
attention with its marching beat and
keeps that attention with its catchy
chorus
number eight neighborhood number three
power out
inspired by the Montreal ice storm of
1998 when Butler regime chef sang and
Josh Duke penned this seemingly dark
single from funeral in 2003 in short
it’s noisy its energetic and tons of fun
but it’s also got some amped up guitars
and kickass drumming all of which makes
neighborhood number-3 a perfect tune to
play live again and again
number seven modern man though it wasn’t
released as a single modern man stands
out as one of the suburbs highlights
thanks to its melding of multiple
instruments and especially its guitar
work
exploring some of the issues that men
face during the 21st century the four
and a half minute piece shows us why our
Cape Fire are truly a modern man
number six we used to wait are you still
starting off with piano this gorgeous
single contrast the innocence of the
past with today’s fast-changing times
with Shang’s voice beautifully and
haunting Lee supplementing Butler’s lead
vocals we used to wait slowly builds in
intensity until we’re all screaming sing
the chorus again with the band
ways to
now the screen
the song so captivated google it was
used in a music video demonstrating some
of the capabilities of the Chrome web
browser
number five intervention sticky – is
the band purchased an old church for the
purposes of recording their sophomore
effort so it’s not that shocking that
Neon Bible features a choir orchestra
and pipe organ on several songs
with its baroque pop sound intervention
is no exception
organ never sounded so good in an indie
rock song
you
come
Oh
number four ready to start
since the suburbs won Album of the year
at the Grammys it’s not surprising that
individual songs on the record also
received recognition by the Academy
we’re ready to start didn’t win the
trophy the fact that it was nominated is
reason enough for its inclusion
but that’s not all with memorable guitar
work rousing drums and multiple string
arrangements the song is perfectly
crafted for stage performance
number three rebellion lies
it might not have been the first single
released from their debut but it was
arguably the first one to really catch
on with radio stations in Arcade Fire’s
home country of Canada
while it contains elements of indie rock
and baroque pop rebellion lies also gets
its rebellious message across with some
frog rock and post-punk revival mixed in
it’s an energetic and rhythmic rocker
that’s also a live stable
number two wake up the funeral’s last
single is an uplifting and joyous number
that lets you go on a musical journey
with the members of our cave fire in tow
you
thanks to its use of multiple vocals and
instruments wake up holy captures the
band’s ambitious sound – atif can’t help
but stay awake while this tune soars
along
number one neighborhood number one
tunnels
the opening track to Arcade Fire’s first
album is also the first of four songs on
funeral in the neighborhood series
with Butler’s distinctive vocals Chang’s
high notes and complex instrumentation
neighborhood number one didn’t only
introduce us to the band’s original
sound but also kept us wanting more
simply put it’s the ultimate arcade fire
trap and you just got to take a listen
for yourself to see why
