If y’all didn’t know they wrote the song based on this taxi driver they had who told them she used to be a semi truck driver and she would take meth and crack to stay awake to do those long drives. One night she over did it and blacked out. She woke up a month later at a strip club with no truck , no memory of what happened, and a haunting feeling that she did something REALLY bad.
fun fact: joseph michael swango (also known as dr swango, as he's mentioned in this song) was a physician born in tacoma, washington, who also happened to be a serial killer. he is estimated to have killed around thirty-five people, and changed his name at least four times, presumably to escape the police. haha, uhh, i shouldn't have said fun fact.
1:25 until 1:48 the lyrics here hit different for some reason, makes me feel some type of way, like an internal chill that I can't pinpoint the feeling behind. Like, this song has a creepy, disturbing, yet beautiful and peaceful kind of vibe, y'all get what I'm saying?
Alright I'm hooked. Anyone know of more fantastical/whimsical sounding bops like this one?? It's so unique. I'd hate to let this song be the only one out here like it
I would recommend going more into the band, it has a lot of music like it. I proceed to list a few: Toes Black Mambo Gooey All by this band lol. I can't find any other bands with this style. Maybe Mother Mother? Hope this helps!
Hmm, maybe something by Cosmo Sheldrake, his songs Pelicans We, Birthday Suit and Come Along are bops, with poetic lyrics and fantasical melodies. If you want more Glass Animals songs, I recommend Pools. Stuff Is Way by There May Be Giants too is interesting, though it's a very peculiar one.
If I got this right, it sounds like a schizophrenic who had a partner and ended up murdering them but didn't see it that way until one of his voices told him... then a bit more.
Andrew Hare to me, it sounds like a mother with mental illness that snapped and killed her husband during a psychotic episode. Her kids being “dirty Dustin” and “dizzy Jim”, who were witnesses. “In the summer silence, I was getting violent” vs. “In the summer silence, I was doing nothing” being the mother’s denial and confusing conflicting thoughts. Hence the title, Mama’s Gun
It’s actually based off a story a cab driver told them about someone who lost a month of their life to drugs and couldn’t remember anything EXEPT that they think the killed someone, that talk about it in an interview
You're close. Apparently it's about a true story of woman who was on drugs to stay awake for her job (I think a truck driver). One day she passed out and woke up months later in a strip club and had the horrible feeling that she killed someone. With the guilt in her heard she was mortified and confused because she remembered nothing
Y'all need to stop portraying mentally suffering individuals as evil villainous murderers. Statistics show schizophrenics are often victims to violence, and yet simply because they're different, people portray them as evil.
@j (I know this is late, but...-) Well I don't know the full backstory, but here's their inspiriation I guess. "This ominous song is partially inspired by a story by a US taxi driver who explained to frontman David Bayley the damage she imagined she'd done on an 'epic super-bender.' Bayley explained to NME that the American had overdid the crystal meth and cocaine she took to help with all-nighters as a long-haul lorry driver and blacked out for a month. The woman then feared the worst when she woke up in a strip club in the wrong State. 'She thinks she's killed someone, basically' said Bayley, 'but she's not sure. Isn't that mad?"'
As soon as I heard the beginner beats and flute I thought this song is going to be unique and amazing until I heard the lyrics. My heart just dropped and I love this song!!
Weird that most people seem to be getting peaceful vibes out of this. To me it's very ominous. A slow descend into madness. Something that could play as a soundtrack in a movie when a villain becomes a villain.
this song reminds me of weirdcore for no apparent reason probably cuz i sat there looping this while playing dream world with my roblox husband :D *sneezes*

Cut Cord Games its the ambience and the mistery that invokes a snowy wintery day, similar motifs are in narnia, hazy shade of winter, emancipator songs, etc
For the longest time, I couldn't understnad what was being said from like 2:25 to like 2:56 I thought it was replicating the 'Ki-Ki-Ki Ma-ma-ma' from Friday the 13th

haha, uhh, i shouldn't have said fun fact.
Yeah... No fun at all.
Not really fun but certainly very interesting!

Well... it was fun for Dr Swango.

@@nekonao9471 aw why thank you :) I like you to heheh
From the very beginning I felt this song was going to be really something. Then came the flute.. I will never stop replaying this video

Yeah
Y E S
I kept thinking that my cat was meowing at the door while playing this video.
Why did I laugh so hard at this lmao I-
I thought it was my sister😭
Alright I'm hooked. Anyone know of more fantastical/whimsical sounding bops like this one?? It's so unique. I'd hate to let this song be the only one out here like it
I would recommend going more into the band, it has a lot of music like it. I proceed to list a few:
Toes
Black Mambo
Gooey
All by this band lol. I can't find any other bands with this style. Maybe Mother Mother? Hope this helps!
Tally hall (band) sometimes has this whimsical vibe
@@clockworkcat8576 cool! I'll check them out :)
@@busymarquezschedule7561 just want some of those sweet vibes. Thanks!

The flute is almost as if in a fairy-tale or renaissance time on a sunny day running freely in the fields.
The flute melody comes from a Carpenter's song Written in 1967 called Mr. Guder although it first appears on the album Close to you in 1970
Why wasn’t this on Bates motel... “was that your voice or me” perfect..
the music gives me a fairytale or magical vibe so this can be used in a twisted fairytale or fantasy storyy!✨
Omg Glass Animals has me wrapped around their finger with their music😩
This song is very calming and has a solid beat, the flute seems to be popular big the comments; his voice compliments the lyrics perfectly
I love this so much, my favorite part of the lyrics is 1:30 to 2:08
but that flute! IT'S PERFECT!!!

This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard . The flute is just perfect it just fits so well .
This band is such a trip
THE FLUTE
This song literally brings me to other dimensions like i need to look up from the screen to confirm im still in my room
obviously i must be the only one seeing this shit rn
This song and Black Mambo have such huge fae vibes
The backstory of this song is sad.
InkedupKK what is it?

Midnight Trick OH i actually read that one recently while looking at glass animals stuff! that makes sense. thank you for the reply
@j
No problem! ^^
As soon as I heard the beginner beats and flute I thought this song is going to be unique and amazing until I heard the lyrics. My heart just dropped and I love this song!!
That flute so amazing
This is lovely. It gives me very.. nature esque vibes. Like.. sand, trees and an open sky.. I dunno 😂
It reminds me of an opening in a forest in the evening, the sun rays evaporating into a cold shell of midnight.
I am happy to say I was the 69th like
Sand, trees, an open sky, and a psychopath, sounds perfect
this is such a beautiful song. springs tears every time.
Everyone seems to really love the flute in this song. If you do, check out Mr. Guder by the carpenters. Its where it came from.
Thanks for the rec - beautiful song!
everytime i listen to this i get reminded of summer
more specifically, late nights during the summer, a room illuminated with a lamp and a couple of sodas lying around.
hm i get the same vibe,
Weird that most people seem to be getting peaceful vibes out of this. To me it's very ominous. A slow descend into madness. Something that could play as a soundtrack in a movie when a villain becomes a villain.
@@sebarus8108 god i completely agree
One of my favourite Glass Animals songs
What really drew me to this song is the flute in it (it’s like a classic musical note)
it makes me cry
THAT FLUTE OMG
1:04 best part
This is my favorite song of theirs to sing. Also favorite song in general of Glass Animals
This song satisfies and itch in places I didn’t know was itchy
I can't stop replaying it this song is SOOO good I wish TH-cam had a replay thing mehhhhhh hands ab tiredddd
right click the video and hit loop
biohazard thank you so much you are a god
2:20 is my favourite bit of the song lol
Absolutely fabulous.
Love Glass Animals- cool 😎
Oh my god I’m absolutely in love with the flute. I need to learn how to play that
Its beutiful and fun
@@kimberlyramirez5900 beautiful*
The vibe of the song itself is so different from the vibe of the song's name
THE SUMMER SILENCE REALLY MAKES YOU VIOLENT :^(((
I feel like I can relate to this song
Love the melody OMG！！！
Perfect song！
This is great music!
This song will always make me miss playing my flute just wow-😔✋
No matter how many times I listen to this I keep remembering Psychosis and Bates Motel
THE,SOUNDS. I AM IN LOVE. THIS.IS.MENRFKS
this song reminds me of the witcher in the best way
3:06 that’s transition tho
I didn't know that the F.B.I listens to the same music I do.
BRUUUH, IVE HEARD THIS BEFORE BUT I NEVER KNEW IT WAS GLASD ANIMALS
Why is there one dislike, there should be like.....none XD
Don’t worry they had their device upside down
Sounds like youre slowly losing it but with style
I love this song
I like piano songs by monokuma better.
Sorry
Came here from a villain tododeku cmv and honestly this song is so beautiful, I love it so much!
Personally I'm not a big fan of this one part, but everything was an absolute masterpiece and I would listen to a bunch of other songs like it.
The only other band that has amazing flute like this is Jethro Tull! Love, love Glass Animals! 😘
Never gets tired of this
this song reminds me of weirdcore for no apparent reason
probably cuz i sat there looping this while playing dream world with my roblox husband :D
*sneezes*
in fact, if this gets 10 likes i'm telling the roleplay story in another comment >:D
The story behind this song is so interesting
I think I broke the replay button
Good thing there's a loop button.
@@chlonald What if they're on mobile
came from cvm duko . my hero
This song fucked me up for a few days the first time I listened to it.
Lyrics*
In the summer
Took my gun
And made him go to Neverland
He was something
My old husband
He was all you'd ever want
Did you say somethin'
What'd you say?
Was that your voice or was that me?
Little voices buzzin poison
Backward noise drom everything
Dr Swango
Says I'm psycho
Says they all from Neverland
They'll never ever let me be
Was that your voice or was that me?
Dirty Dustin
Said he saw him
Playin' ball with Dizzy Jim
Dizzy Jim
Had never spoken
Whispered back "You murdered him."
My heart strings broke and it was me
I pull they stretch infinitely
In the summer silence
I was getting violent
In the summer silence
I was doing nothing
Play with me my love
In the summer sun
I'll be waiting it
Your favorite Cheshire grin
Lay with me my dear
In the evening clear
I'll be dreaming in
My paper pale skin
In the summer silence
I was getting violent
In the summer silence
I was doing nothing
JiffyOwl thisnis literally a lyric video
sad kid I mean. Yeah? Nice to have the lyrics all in one spot though I think.
why? this is a lyric video
I love you i love you!!!!!!
I listened to this at school and now I think the FPI is watching me
this makes me think of....pirates
I made my furby 2012 listen this, he started sleeping at one point, guess he dont have the same taste as me
I only saw this because of a villain deku thing.
@Todoroki Shoto from Mishkail's video? If so same lol
@@xopuffprincessxo I came from that same video too! That cmv was great imo
@@xopuffprincessxo samee
Thats were i came from to😂
SAME- and it was grEAt
3:07
I thank the amv I just watched to find this song
2:24
UNDERRATEDSONGUNDERRATEDSONGUNDERRATEDSONGUNDER-
I'm here because of a Mystery Skulls Animated fan animation
the flutes make this song sound very christmas-y
Cut Cord Games totally disagree
Remind me not visit you at Christmastime 😬
Cut Cord Games its the ambience and the mistery that invokes a snowy wintery day, similar motifs are in narnia, hazy shade of winter, emancipator songs, etc
Dark night by the sea, bright sun on a paddy field, after school in a demolished building
if there aren't any "my daddy's gotta gun" jokes in this comment section i'm suing
Theres a few mother mother coments here
the music vibes gave me kinda like I'm reading a mythology book.
For the longest time, I couldn't understnad what was being said from like 2:25 to like 2:56
I thought it was replicating the 'Ki-Ki-Ki Ma-ma-ma' from Friday the 13th
Does anyone have the flute notes?
Alice?
The flute sounds like it would be from a 1970s made for TV movie
That's because it's a sample from the Carpenters song "Mr Guder"
I still associate this with kill Bill no idea why
This sounds like folcrore lol
1:25
This is like Villain Deku's theme
Who else came from Marble Hornets?
Anybody else find this song from a villian deku cmv
yes! mishkali :-)
This song should be played on Riverdale
No
Then that would ruin it
No please
No
Dear god no
