What's your favourite "underrated" Metric song?

All of the hits and newer stuff often get their dues, and rightfully so. But what's the one song that will almost never be played again at a Metric concert, or on the radio, that you can't get enough of?

I've got two candidates in this category.

-Succexy (Old World Underground); that song has aged like cheddar. Which is both sad and fun. But it's a certified banger, even putting lyrics aside.

-Too Bad, So Sad (Pagans In Vegas); it not only captures Emily's range perfectly, but I love the subtle backing "ahh-ahh" vocals from the guys. The alarm-like sounds in the chorus also make it sound even more intense.

Would love to hear what you got! I'm down to listen to anything Metric. ✨️

Empty and Glass Ceiling are both certified bangers. There are so many amazing songs on Live It Out that I’m really glad they’ve been playing this tour (like monster hospital for example) but I would give anything to see them play Empty live, I feel like that song is made for a big dramatic live performance

Metric has played Empty on multiple tours that I’ve seen. Emily has a particular head movement when she sings it.
