musicians in elevators

I stumbled across this video a long time ago and I've never gotten tired of watching it.  Arcade Fire has obviously maintained it's level of influence since they broke into mainstream attention with the release of their album "Funeral" in 2004.  The intimacy of the video is simply astounding and will cause at least some shift of emotions.  Something.  
And really, isn't that what matters in the end?

Watch it and you won't need a reminder of why they're just so damn fantastic.

The elevator magic happens around 3:53, so feel free to skip to that part.. but the quite little quirks and interactions between the band makes a smile or some shade of respect inevitable.



The website that makes these videos is La Blogotheque, which hosts a good amount of musicians in the indie/folk genre. Check it out. 
It's in French, but navigation isn't quite that hard.  
Just play around with the links and I'm sure you could make something of it.

If you need help, just click "Concerts a Emporter" on the top of the site.
