Been following MGMT since I was 14 and just recently turned 30. Every stage of my life has been soundtracked by Ben and Andrew. Needless to say, this album and this song sum things up of where I’m at now. Thanks, guys.
Same here time passes so fast, I remember listening to them at that age and now I’m married with kids turning 30 😢 I play their classics in the car for my kids now, they love their music
I started with Electric Feel (and Kids, but I didn't like it back then) when I was around 10. I wasn't consistent with them until Little Dark Age in 2018... Now I'm 24 in 2024 and while that's not quite as long as you, time certainly has flown by... I also feel like this album and this song depict where I'm at now.
Favourite band of all time. It kinda annoys me when people say they're born in the wrong generation because they don't understand that good music clearly still exists.
whats crazy too is we have the capability to listen to stuff from the past whenever we want, they didnt even have the ability back in the 60-70s to access music so easily, we get it all
@@MrMattaiusify exactly. People act as if tons of 80s music wasn’t just crappy pop songs, although tbf the crappy pop songs back then are still better in comparison to something like fucking dance monkey and the tik Tok shit.
Meaning=humans prioritize material crap. People are stuck in a cycle of all the wrong goals in life. There's people in the streets marching to their own deaths, and for what?
It's always amazing to realise, even as a non native english speaker, the lyrics and vibe of mgmt's songs perfectly translate the mood of the times their albums are released. I'm growing up with you and it feels like you're also growing up with us all. This album is as fresh and beautiful as all the others. Please come to France for a concert.
I don't feel anxiety any longer, therapy and constant education are important. I trying to study something that helps the world around me. But i'm still searching for the right subject
I hate when old people say that music was better in the past. I am listening to amazing new music every night and I don't even have to try hard to find it.
Eu sou jovem, mas eu sei que as músicas eram muito melhores no passado. MGMT é um dos poucos que fazem música boa hj em dia. Olhando o panorama geral, a boa época da música era no passado, hj os que lançam música boa são poucos, infelizmente.
I think it's the nostalgia factor, I think older people will always go back to the music they enjoyed when they were young. If they enjoyed it in their youth, I think that's why they remember it more. Objectively our music is so different now. I personally don't feel that way. I think there's all kinds of music now that's great, whether it's coming out now, or it's from back then.
(I am writing through a translator so I apologize for any mistakes) There is not a single person in my circle who knows about this wonderful group that I learned about a couple of years ago, and I am very sad about this. I have no one with whom to discuss the crazy and at the same time fascinating meanings of MGMT songs and videos, no one with whom to rejoice in their new songs. I am very grateful that the guys continue to work and give us new masterpieces. I love Andrew's voice and am glad that it is still as beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful composition
In these especially strange and discordant times, this is the song suited for settling the nerves and comforting the soul. I feel like the accompanying video is a worthy companion to the music. From the bottom of my heart, thank you MGMT.
From Oracular Spectacular to now...these Senators incessantly drop/invoke the vibe of the present when most requisite. Truly eye-watering to witness the creativity/evolution happen over the past 15+ years
2 comments: 1. How amazing it is that vibe that I got hearing 'Kids' for the first time in my life being 10-12 (not even speaking English at that time, btw), and that I get now turning this on. It is so bittersweet and so relatable, gotten from something that can't be expressed yet is conveyed between the lines of every song. Am I not growing up? Or are the mgmt not growing up either? 2. Thank you, Ben and Andrew, for continuing to releasing the beauty of your creations. Somehow you manage to DO THIS (that I can't express) since the very beginning. It hurts to listen to the album, yet it's so infatuating I keep doing it every once in a while. PS. The intro to the album is a bomb.
You must not get out often??? Loss of Life is dope, definitely in the top 20, maybe will make the top 10 (remember there is still 6 more months of 2024 drops) Cindy Lee, Beth Gibbons, Waxhatchee, Mdou Moctar, Charlie XCX, SOPHIE, Xiu Xiu, The Last Dinner Party (Industry Plants) Hiatus Kaiyote, Uboa, Allie X, MGMT, Arab Strap, Fountains D.C and Pissed Jeans, rounding out my top 15 and all are vying for the Top Spot ( if not out of all albums, definitely the Indie Rock top spot) {honorable mentions are IDLES, Childish Gambino, Amyl and The Sniffers, Shellac, John Grant, Ty Segall, The Decemberists, The Jesus and Mary Chain, King Hannah, La Luz, Tapir!, Les Savy Fav, Goat Girl, COLA, Lupe Fiasco, Man Man, Guided by Voices, MK.gee) so many good albums so far in 2024 - it’s the last year of human existence €maybe💤
i love it when mgmt is Back. yalls greying hair makes me feel old though. i remember drawing portraits of ben and andrew when i was in HS, nearly 12 yrs ago now. wild how far weve come
It's a shame this isn't as accessible to some fans. This is there best songwriting I've heard from them, and I'm getting a level of emotion that I didn't get from their catalogue up until now.
Ever since I first heard em, always such an impression. Will be a fan for life as likely everyone here will be too. Can't imagine not being Able to turn to them now.
This album came out 2 days after I started transitioning and its helped me immensely throughout this year. I forever ❤ MGMT. Thank you endlessly for your music 🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️
Recently had an acid trip and long story short the people i was tripping around seemed to different and fake. made me realize how weird and not normal i am i suppose. this song never resonated harder. some people are just marching to the beat of a different drum~ ty mgmt
Such a good song. Too good I guess to get very popular. This, Siberian breaks, metatonIa, congratulations, flash delirium, weekend wars, of moon and birds. Best songs of MGMT and sadly these are not among the popular ones. Little dark age is good tho and atleast is popular too.
5 years ago i found out about mgmt ('it was when you die' that introduced me to the band) and i haven't listened to them for 3 years after that, i found this in my recommendations and i have to say, looking back to it, i went through hell in back and this song reminded me how life used to be back when i was naive Thanks mgmt
I always tell people, MGMT is the greatest band in the world. Youre so of the age, you guys have rights and wrongs...not in the music...but in yourselves. It was so cool to learn my relative married to this one record label dude from the early Aughts, and he said that they had met Ben and Andrew... he wasnt fond of working with them 😂😂😂 That made them even more of my favorite band, fuck that dude, he likes bruce springsteen.
I miss the old MGMT. Back when yall used to use paper clock in cards, and paper hard back books to hold the doors open. Remember? Please tell me that you remember.. can we get some thunder clap bangers, please? 🙏
MGMT's New music's quality hasn't fallen off, it's like the best ever, but its popularity has, less than 200k views in this beautiful video in a month, sad.

MGMT is the kind of band that makes you consider the big picture. And i'm so here for it.
Did they make you realize the big picture or did you reflect the soul within your self?

u nailed it
So you're part of the big picture then? Hope you wake up

This album is a slow burn masterpiece.
Honestly this is where I’m at, on of their most introspective and romantic albums
SLOW is accurate
This made me feel something. Captures the beauty and madness of existing in the world so well.
I hate when old people say that music was better in the past. I am listening to amazing new music every night and I don't even have to try hard to find it.
Yeah. I'm old, but I stay a bit young with (what I think) is the same attitude. Good for you.

Proberly based of pop music on the radio from then VS now and or less open to new kinds of music.
Every song deserves a chance. I'd rather find discover music than it being played for me. Just have to be open to listen and not just hear it.
Me thinking this is one of MGMTs most beautiful songs. Another gem to the collection. Good job
I always feel like your music understands me, like listening to an old friend. Its very sweet and I appreciate you guys so much.
My daughter and I have been homeless for four months. 🙏 This song is beautiful and I always love me some MGMT.

Go to their subreddit! It’s pretty active
That's better english than most of the population
I feel the exact same way!! My dream is to find a friend I can bond over how great MGMT is. I'm not even joking
Peace and Love
I just laughed u controllably at this reply @@jasonpanella8010

And just like that I have a new favorite MGMT video. Thanks boys. I’m crying.

This band will never fail to amaze me with their incredible work. It somehow gets better with every listen. Thank you MGMT ❤️

MGMT has the most beautiful videoclips. You can see how much effort they put in it and I love them for that 🫶🫶
Good video as always with MGMT
I love that they release albums on their time. Every 5 or so years at complete random, not forced out for the sake of making money ❤
I'm seeing this first thing after waking up. What a great way to start off my day
That snare is crazzzyyyy lovin this
Might be one of my new favorite music videos
MGMT = Perfection
MGMT drop a new track and everything on planet earth is all good again.The mention of inevitable death is just the icing on the cake *SIGHS*
MGMT knows how to play with your feelings through deep imagery. Geniuses ❤
MGMT Forever 🫶
Gorgeous. Loss of Life is such an overlooked 2024 release
thank you MGMT, for still making music and for helping many people through their hardships, including me.
got so excited when i saw this on my home page!! i adore this song and the whole album🧡 the intonation on "and they're probably tired" always gets me
My brothers keep continue to create this was awesome🔥
MGMT consistently puts out such quality music.Real art
i love it when mgmt is Back. yalls greying hair makes me feel old though. i remember drawing portraits of ben and andrew when i was in HS, nearly 12 yrs ago now. wild how far weve come

I am gonna return to this video in another state of consciousness
Definitely do its worth it
Down the rabbit hole?
Good idea, I'm gonna try straight
My god what a masterpiece. I haven't heard any good music from anyone since 2013. Wow
Cage the elephant and king gizzard and wizard lizard are also killing it with new music
I remember the movie '21' came out like 07' was the first time I heard this band. Their song was in the intro of the movie and I was a fan ever since!
And thats when the brain waves good bye..fav part
Great lyric
Mano, que show, um dos melhores clipes que já vi, parabéns MGMT 👏👏👏👏👏👏
YES My favorite song on video!!!!

Love you guys, Keep up the good stuff greetings from nova scotia.
Might be the most underrated band of all time
best band of the 21st century
OMG?!?!?!?! I DIDNT EVEN KNOW YOU WOULD RELEASE A VIDEO FOR THIS SONG, I LOVE YOU
Gonna remember I saw this 36 minutes after it was uploaded 30 years from now while I’m still listening
This might the best 5 mins of my day
