I am in my late 30s and I feel a kinship with these band-members when I listen to and think about the lyrics. "We used to wait" is definitely a harking back to when most communication between people wasn't instant.
I know a lot of the fans of arcade fire are probably younger than them... so maybe they don't understand the actual importance of what has changed over the last 5 to 10 years when it comes to communicating with each other. But I understand.
This change is very drastic. It is a big deal. Kudos to Arcade Fire for making a song about it.
