Metric - Between The Bars (Elliott Smith Cover) 

13 years later and I’m still crying with this cover

Still in 2024

This version of this song has got me thru SOME shit... I play it over and over when I feel weak.

Elliot's original was magical, transformative, fragile. However, I love Metric as well and I feel Emily made Elliot smile wherever he is with this one.

by far the best cover of this song. shes so amazing.

I love this version. It was posted before and something went wrong, it stopped working. Thanks for re-posting.

One of my favorites from the 00s era. I remember listening to this in my college dorm room while feeling love struck over a boy I knew at the time. lol memories

her voice is so soothing i wish she could sing me to sleep all the time

You know why she’s wearing those shades 😏🍃

one of the greatest songs ever written

dude i am obsessed with this version. O.O relax lol

still listening to this song

I never expected her to cover this, wow, just wow

She sings so beautiful 😥😢😱😇😍

I love this cover, it's not only beautiful but it's the reason I looked up Elliott Smith in the first place. Of course now I hold Smith far higher in my estimations than Metric but I still feel this cover is pretty brilliant.

Great job, so beautiful. I love this.

Drink up, baby, stay up all night With the things you could do, you won't but you might The potential you'll be that you'll never see The promises you'll only make Drink up with me now and forget all about The pressure of days, do what I say And I'll make you okay and drive them away The images stuck in your head People you've been before that you Don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still Drink up, baby, look at the stars I'll kiss you again, between the bars Where I'm seeing you there, with your hands in the air Waiting to finally be caught Drink up one more time and I'll make you mine Keep you apart, deep in my heart Separate from the rest, where I like you the best And keep the things you forgot People you've been before that you Don't want around anymore That push and shove and won't bend to your will I'll keep them still

So beautiful it makes me tear up🖤🌛🌞🦋

fantastic

Absolutely amazing. Rivals Elliott...

Well done cover.

I love Metric and Emily Haines !!!

Wow.

2021

This song is poignant and true. Substance abuse sucks. :(

i am so in love with emily haines...

anyone have the link to the full set of this? i swear i had it bookmarked forever and now its gone :(

I remember this whole set and I love it so much but it's no longer all on RU-vid sadly. Anyone remember the other songs she sang during this? I know they did live it out but I can't remember the other songs besides this one.

didn't know axl rose did a cover of Elliott Smith wow pretty good tho

she says she seems sleepless

2023 I'm here ..

Anyone know where glass ceiling and monster hospital from this session are? They disappeared from yt years ago.

beauty in sadness. it’s fitting that this is performed after what seems to be a coke binge.

well rolling stone sucks for news now, but the music here was great! 3/31/2022

In some ways I prefer this to Madeleine Peyroux's version. I has a raw, sincere quality that one lacks. There's no question Peyroux has the sweeter voice, and the more skillful arrangement. What I like about the Emily Haines version is her comparative unselfconsciousness. Peyroux tries too hard at stretching out every last syllable for Effect, and it wears on my patience. Both are charming in their way.

I wish I knew what key this was in

She looks like the very young version of Axl Rose!

My ex used to sing this to me when I was an addict. 😢

As if Emily Haines couldn't get any cooler 😢

yo she dont know the words. and i dont care

It's different. OK, Different is not a synonym for worse.

shes just coked out silly X)

I can understand an 'artist' liking the songs of another artist, but do us a favor... just sing it in your livingroom. So amateur.

Horrible
