I don't believe that until nowadays there's people pretending not liking this song.

I never really thought this was Win trying to rap until everyone started complaining about it. And I like this song, it has a groove.

And as Win says: “Every piece of negative criticism that I’ve read of the record mentions that I rap on a song, which is just not true, unless people don’t know what rapping is,” he says in the interview. “Unless, like, Bob Dylan raps, I do not rap on an Arcade Fire song. It’s not a thing that happens. But it’s just kind of like a phrase that’s been copy-pasted from one initial thing from like six months ago, and it’s just kind of the nature of how this stuff works. It’s been really interesting to see, like, this becomes the truth. Some pseudo-fact becomes common knowledge, when everyone who knows what rapping is knows that me saying the days of the week is not rap. It’s not what rap is. But if you repeat it enough, then it’s true.” Read more at http://www.nme.com/news/music/arcade-fires-win-butler-responds-critics-new-album-everything-now-2119700#MJLUOhOOV8hYxD6j.99

'Love is hard, sex is easy, God in Heaven, could you please me?' - this simple preachy lyrics are my kinda thing. love the song, only voice is killing vibe for me. but you can't have it all perfect. ;,(

At this point I'm not so sure about intentional simple lyrics. I get it: they're trying to sound like an 80s band (by being straightforward about present times) but why? It's not a bad thing but they have their own style/sound. Win's writing was (is) way better than this. The thing that keeps you replaying this is the sound but, damn, this is forgettable.
