"Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)" is a song by Canadian rock band Arcade Fire, and the first track on their debut album Funeral. It is the first of the four-part "Neighborhood" series found on Funeral. "Tunnels" was the bands first single, released several months before the album as a 7" vinyl record on June 20, 2004, to a pressing of 1500 copies. The B-side to the album is a recording of the song "My Buddy" by swing musician Alvino Rey. Rey is the maternal grandfather of Arcade Fire members Win and William Butler. In August 2009, the song was named #10 on Pitchfork Medias "Top 500 Tracks of the 2000s". In a 2012 Beats Per Minute (website) article on The Essential Arcade Fire, it was named the bands most essential track by writer Lucien Flores. Flores writes, "Tunnels has all the elements of a great Arcade Fire song: a head-bobbing rhythm section, lyrics that harken back to an imperfect past, a seamless blend of instruments, and a cathartic coda." It is also the highest rated single of the 2000s on popular music ratings website rateyourmusic.com.
