Ill be viewing this at a later time in a different mindset.
Why the fuck did I decide to watch dis on acid wtf
was not pleasant
SPOOKY I love the follow up comment 😂
Just watched this on acid, shit was wild, fucking loved it
Swim Same.
I don’t think it’s healthy how much I like this song..
Lance Laube I laughed for the first in 2 years thank you and god bless ur soul I’m praying for u
I think it's very healthy. Acceptance is the first step to healing. You gonna be alright. Heaven and Hell are all right here right now. Drugs, meditation, all that jazz leads you to roughly the same point at different speeds hopefully. Soon enough you'll realize your action in the immediate here and now is ultimately all you have control over in this crazy roller coaster we call life, and that they ripple outward like a stone in the pool that is our here and now.So understandably, killing yourself can be a tantalizing thing when you feel nothing matters. But cheesy as it may be, everything you do has a value greater than 0. You may not feel as though you are a 1, but you are. Infinite and nothing all at once. You have the potential, you have something no one else in your immediate space can provide. You may not see it, but others do. It might be something as small as making the best fucking brownies out of anyone you know, but goddamit you're buddies would miss those brownies more than you can ever realize. Once you realize how even the tiniest effect you have on others around you and how much of an effect even saying something nice to someone can have, it seems meaningless to kill yourself as well, and thus you are free. Nothing matters except everything. Hug your cat, eat some good food, smoke a bowl, do whatever you do, but push yourself to the positive. Do constructive things, stay away from negative people and thought patterns. This kind of music does have a negative effect if it's all you listen to (I've been on a DIIV and sadboi music kick myself), but in total it's a positive gain when can make time to reflect and not ruminate. Become a successful failure. Through your stumbles you are greater than those who have never faltered if you allow yourself.
How come Lance Laube?
Oscar Jameson It reflects the darker part of my perspective of life.
Lance Laube it never gets old like actually
Rest in peace Mike Burakoff, thank you for one of the greatest animation works I’ve ever seen in my life! ♥️
Who is Mike Burakoff?
@@ivankornyshkov-murin9227 director of this music video, he died just a little bit ago
he really knew how things are
when he died. rest in peace. my favourite video for the next decade@@gulfy5970
every time i send this video to someone, it's my signal for suicidal stuff. and now Mike did it. i feel so bad we never met. rest in peace, you wonderful dude
The melody of this song is so sweet and beautiful but yet so eerie and creepy. The lyrics behind it are so dark yet sound so happy. I can’t get enough of it! Love these guys.

Imagine this video in the 60s ... They'd be Gods
For real tho
Literally
mgmt is one of those bands that I like to think came here secretly in a time machine from the 60s or something.
True! Although this video could not have existed in the 60s
Not gonna like this comment. It's in the perfect number right now: 420
Been listening to this song for about a year straight and I’m still blown away by how MGMT managed to capture the experience of complete egodeath exactly like a heroic dose of mushrooms. In my opinion this is their best work.
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like MGMT
Yesssssss
@@funlittlefishthanks for the band name they are chill asf
I agree and I've been listening to it for a year too lmao. We're bro's now. Yeah this song is like when people label you a certain way and ur like just go away. Kind of.
@@samuelhatlestad6676 I agree or basically F off I’m riding alone on this one .
the opposite of electric feel
Literally the upside down from that
No, that's siberian breaks.
@@resmarted have even heard the 3rd album? -(electric feel)=I love you too, death.
Grounded nerve damage
I mean yeah...electric feel is slow paced, chill and with weak colors while when you die is unerving, almost stresing, sharp colors and about death
that woman at the end is the scariest thing I've ever seen
On acid I'd probably jump out the window looking at her
@@ghoste_girll is acid highly addictive ?
I was on acid watching this and then she appeared and honestly it was the worst fucking thing I've ever seen
It’s what u see when ur on lsd I swear
When the trip goes bad lmao
When the woman says "eat your heart out" and the background becomes a sort of arterial web of soft tissue, then that pattern of skulls flashes in front of your eyes. That is ABSOLUTELY what the beginnings of a bad trip look like. It's this sort of awareness and paranoia about what most of your body is actually made of. You just start to feel gross.
Time stamp?
Congrats its psychosis! Psychosis land looks justtttt like this. Everything’s connected.
when i saw that the first time i was like, ok not gonna watch this on acid. now that youve said that im definitley not going to.
Don’t do drugs then loser
@@RainyDayDance yeah i’m watching this on cid rn and looking at comments and i’m lowkey tweaking now
This is one of most realistic tripping videos I've seen. The way everything is made up of such detailed patterns, contrasted shadows, pulsing movements & vibrant colors. Well done.👍🌌
It’s kind of insane how accurately they captured the look of an LSD trip. I don’t think I’ve seen anything else that encapsulates those specific textures and colors the way this video does.
@@LongSinceDead1 th-cam.com/video/r7OkE-Uj3Bg/w-d-xo.html
I think this video is as close as it gets to a true DMT experience
TRUE
Kinda. Not super accurate but the ideas are correct
you will never get a super accurate depiction, its a subjective experience going on in an individuals brain, different for most people.@@tribitx
imagine this playing on mtv and traumatizing some poor child to life.
very cool tho
I love how you said traumatizing to “life” instead of “death”. Interesting
i'm from russia and i heard this music in the reebok store in the mall. Few people in my country know english, but the music sounds cool

When you take the entire jar of vitamin gummies
Mmmmm
Well they taste really nice sooo... I wouldn't blame them
I though that will become in a xmen :(
have u heard of this song called TIME by The Impures
MGMT took an entire jar of vitamin gummis, this is what happened to their musical career. - Chubbyemu
When you rub your eyes to hard
YOU KNOW!!!
Wtf how are you rubbing your eyes that you fall into an intense acid trip?! Teach me!!

Takes real talent to release bangers like this 10+ years after your debut.
It’s 2023 & MGMT still one of the most underrated bands of the new millennium
Yes, completely agree. My favorite band of all time. Can't wait for the new album this year!!
Underrated? I've always thought they were super cool and super popular. Huh.
@@vashdesperado1232 they’ve always been top 5 for me, but they got hella burned by critics back in the day.
for example, back when Oracular came out & they were getting a lot of radio play, a lot of critics snubbed them as being “alright for a radio-pop band”. then when Congrats came out, they said they were trying too hard to be artsy/contrarian. & for their S/T, suddenly the narrative became “they should have stayed a pop band, they were amazing as a pop band”
They finally got some critical acclaim with LDA, but it took a long time. The fans have always known they’re top-tier though
Nah they got electric feel to trend on tiktok, they're good for now.
underrated? lol there pretty big bro
This song hits different when you actually have somewhere to be at seven tirthy
Edit: * thirty
have u heard of this song called TIME by The Impures
stoned or not? jajaajaja
"don't you have somewhere to be at 7:30?" Ahhhh fuck, yeah best set the alarm
lollll
work
This feels like a battle between nihilism and a spiritual awakening.
Same thing
Nihilism *is* a spiritual awakening
@@Zealot1290 personally, its just like “okay cool, so now what?” You know?
@@mygvmtnamepublicallyavailable Now go and make your own meaning! That's the beauty of it!
@@Zealot1290 i want the powers of dr Manhattan but i dont want to blow up stuff for the military or anything like that. No, I just want those powers to sit on literally every square in of earth for exactly 100 years throughout spacetime for as long as it takes. Once I’m done with that I would go back and do it again but change the hundred year period in the timeline along with the corresponding square two feet I’d sit on and I would just watch, everything. Even though I would already know what happened, I figure at some point you would just treat reality like re-runs of the office; comfortably boring but fun since suffering or joy don’t apply to me even tho I’m still a conscience being.
Unbelievable how this song sounds both melancholic and hopeful simultaneously
I m so high rn ..,i dunnno what ya sayin...but i knw one thang u are so beatiful ..lolol
Okay I am not high like the guy above but I think , I think that " I am gonna eat your heart out " you know? Like eat it nom nom you know
Like find you
Both and simultaneous, PLEONASTIC!! Learn how language works kiddo.
yup :( it really hurts to listen to when you can relate
Watching this while tripping with friends was a fun experience.
Watching this while tripping alone was a mistake.

was challenging with friends, big up tom rob on 750ug watching this, i would melt into the floor
Real

That background guitar tune is frkn lowkey hot from beginning to end

This video is out of this world
Damn, wish i would have taken an 8th of mushrooms before watching.
Can't get over how psychedelic the video and song is not to mention very catchy
yeah it's in space
looks like a ripoff of dont hug me im scared
reminded me of Donnie Darko Idky
This video was uploaded 4 days after I got hit by a car for the first time. The car was going 35 mph and caused me to go flying around 12 feet away, I ragdolled through the air, and my left shoe flew off. I was able to get right back up after I hit the ground, and the worst injury I got from that accident was a scrape on my left wrist. The doctor at the hospital told me that I was really lucky, and ever since then, I've felt like I either should have died, or I actually did die but was somehow transported to an alternate universe where I survived with the least amount of injury.
I only really got into this album last month, but if I had watched this the day it was uploaded, I would have been convinced that I had actually died 4 days earlier, and this song was the universe's way of making fun of me for dying. 2 and a half years later, it vaguely seems that way. It just adds to the depth of this song for me, and makes me love it and appreciate it more in a strange way.
You really were lucky.
well man welcome to this universe. Its probably similar to the parallel universe you came from but everything sucks ass here so enjoy it!
Can I hitchhike with you back to your 2020, I don't wanna be here anymore.
Fresh Bae 😂😂😂😂😂
That's really beautiful...
Rest in peace Mike Burakoff, director from this masterpiece of videoclip
Video: *has the most obviously psychedelic visuals of any video ever*
Comments: “hmmmm my senses are telling my this may be alluding to drugs”
Noah Johnson was FDA zzz pi
A lot of people think DMT is released in your brain when you die, I think that’s what they were going for in this video tbh
Isaiah Romero ^^^
yeaaaah its not about drugs...
@@Macke360 the video is literally acid
This video is the most accurate portrayal of a psychedelic trip I’ve ever seen.
Salvia Divinorum
this makes me think back to my dmt trips
@@naomibanda9364 i dont fuck with salvia, i had one bad trip with that and saw spiders and shit I hated it lol
@@gavinjohnston1517 I was lucky enough to have a great time when I tried salvia, I melted into a wicker chair, saw only my friends hands and faces, and felt my buddy's sweater until I almost cried due to joy. Definitely not a typical experience from what I gather
Not good near the end
Story of the video:
00:00 - dude wakes up, eats breakfast and goes to work - he performs magic at a bar
00:52 - the audience are concerned, a spark appears above the dude's head
00:57 - his life flashes before his eyes. Or at least, everything he has done today
01:34 - it turns out the spark was a result of the stage light collapsing. It lands on his head, causing a near death experience. DMT is released in his brain, causing hallucinations.
02:05 - he wakes up in the hospital, barely in touch with reality. He has further hallucinations where people, patterns and behaviours relating to his day are coexisting.
03:13 - this part is really open to interpretation. The hallucinations relate to blood, skeletons and a possible representation of hell. This is followed by dissolution, suggesting he has died.
Just wanted to put my thoughts out there!
Late_Bloc_Party this is such an underrated comment, I never thought of the video this way
I agree but I also think that the wife staged the death and hired the guy with the toothpick to set the light up to fall and his last hallucination of his wife is him realizing that she staged his death. "Dont you got somewhere to be at 730, I've got some work to do" meaning set up your death and the lyrics are her singing to him that she will laugh when he dies, shes not that nice, go fuck yourself, and she will eat your heart out
I saw the hospital scene as them taking his organs (If he gets hit on the head why is he opened up in his torso?) which I would assume would mean he was dead by that point
Bb
How does one trigger a near death experience.
This song helped me through a very hard time, most people think it’s weird, but it might just be the most important song to me.
Joe Rogan: ever try DMT?
MGMT: *laughs in DMT*
I like this
quick question is dmt acid or is it a different drug
@@tyler3972 100% different
Tyler Tant yea if you pop dmt thinking it’s acid, you’re gonna have a bad time
Well, you dont exactly pop DMT. But also everyone will experience it at least once (the end) in your life. Your brain stores this, smoking DMT triggers a release of it. However it's just the tip of the iceberg, we wont know exactly how much floods our brain till our inevitable end.
Thanks swagger

I've listened to this at least 30 times in the last 2 days and I've determined that both the song and the video are masterpieces.
yupp
Just don't let them fool you, they'll be laughing AT you
samee
i second this
Oh Stacy, I don't think you've been on the planet long enough for a statement like that
This song gave me the courage to quit my old job. This album just came out and my mental health was at its lowest, somehow I believed that being paid so low and treated so horribly by my boss was all I deserved. And then this song? I always had the urge to play it throughout my entire work day on my desk. I guess I got so pumped by how my frustration felt justified, and then I finally quit.
Since then whenever I play this song, I remember the victorioust reeling of leaving that job. I was so wrong, I did deserve better and got a nicer job elsewhere.
Same. I listened to this song the moment I stepped out of the production floor on my last day. It was the first time I smiled after 9 months of stress, humiliation, and small pay.
This is amazing!
Good on you! MGMT is affecting positive change!
There's something real about this sort of thought process. Watching this video does a lot to remind me what I'm working for, what I'm living for - almost as a sort of reminder for what sort of purpose I'd given myself... so that I can hopefully pass on with the idea that I'd left something worth leaving behind.
ah shit now I feel what u once felt
This song hits different when you die.
because ya'know, you're like, dead and stuff
Ikr
Finally, someone who gets it
I know right
Yeah .. death and stuff
Really hits different when you’re on acid
The vocalist is so happy, when he saying "when you die!"

The fuzziness is absolutely spot on with tripping. I once watched a small island turn into the back of a dragon but it was just tree's waving in the wind.
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like listening to MGMT
MGMT understand true psychedelia - this video is fucking gold. The lyrics are perfect, the music is perfect. I know I'm not the only one who'll say this but I've been listening to them for like 11 years, seeing them be one of the first indie bands to seriously blast off was inspiring as fuck to all independent musicians, and I feel like in these crazy fucking times MGMT deserves a serious comeback. I can't wait for the new album. I feel like I'm 16 again. But not. Ya know? It's strange but wonderful.
Natural Father MGMT is a creative power which luckily will have a comeback so more people can enjoy their work, they're amazing.

first indie bands to blast off. get the fuck out of here with that shit. but a great song and video.

I'm just looking for lyrics, but ended up reading everyone's stories. You guys carry a lot, and it is a good thing to pass it on to others.
discovered this gem last week and still have it on repeat.
did you notice most of the lyrics are deliberately generic lines from a couple having an argument
I heard you the first time...
To all the people who said, "Don't watch this when you're high."
You were right.
I hope you dont have paranoia now
LOL
@@neto6405 I think even sober you’ll have paranoia
I LOOOVE watching this when stoned. Hell, I'm high now. The colors are way more vibrant, the patterns more textured, and the animation moves more palpably; it's like in 3D almost.

Now I'm walking around my house singing "I'm ready, I'm ready, ready, ready to blow my brains out"
thanks MGMT
smuchkinz I was doing that before this came out -_-
i was humming this to myself at a supermarket. hope people near me didn't get too concerned
It's great to sing "go fuck yourself", and blame it on a song, right?!? My mom was NOT amused...my chahuahua loves it.😁
The visuals are so psychedelically beautiful combined with the song is just amazing....
Probably my favorite part of the song at 2:43 . The songs melody changed and settled down becoming almost comforting but then you hear that original melody slip back in thats reminiscent of when you’re tripping and you think its over but then you start noticing things moving again so you realize you’re still very far down the rabbit hole. Amazing tune
Yeaaa that's so accurate. And that guitar riff itself somehow sounds like an acid trip, it's whimsical yet dark and mysterious
Yes hallucinating is like a bungee jump at some points. It feels like it is wearing off and you think you are good but then you dive right back into it.
Lol yeah, I thought it was over but then they're like "go fuck yourself" and they give you even more sauce.
Love your comment, I love when people writo down the exact feelings or emotions capted that are the same for a bunch of people or just for the person
For me that slow melody reminds me of when the drug kicks in and slowly begin to jump out of reality innitiating the trip , and begin to lose sense of time along with the other effects

you took it twice

MGMT back at it with the vids that give you a FULL on existential crisis.
La dura coincidencia de las circunstancias ¿no?
This video makes me think about my mortality now constantly.
"gives you the feeling* of a FULL on existential crisis."
Fixed.
Ya la gente es muy sensible a las crisis existenciales, tho. No se necesita mucha complejidad. Supongo que eso es bueno.
How does this give you an existential crisis?
i honestly would love to listen to this song right before i die, to remind me that everything doesnt need to be so serious, that we can just enjoy the gift of life and how death is just another part of it all
Wow that just became a core memory for me
Wake up, poor soul! You are in danger! These are demons waiting for you after life for eternity in hell!
You need your saviour Jesus Christ!
@@bombarde99 well it just so happens.. I am not afraid anymore lol
@@rose_madelyn_h the truth about this world is hard to cope with, because it is a very few people that find God, but if you want to be saved and go to heaven, you NEED the Lord Jesus!
Matthew 7:13 - "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it."
This is the DMT trip I never want to have. Whoever directed this really nailed the "I'm whacked on tons of mushrooms/acid and everything is patterned" visuals. Bravo!
This song has such an upbeat and joyful feel, but when you pair it with the video it switches into a sarcastic and ironic kind of bliss which never fails to induce me with anxiety.
I never hear the upbeat feel that people talk about in songs like these, I hear major key, but song always feels very dark
@@j-henry7391 This is in a minor key though. The only upbeat element is the drums.
EXACTLY
@@1000jamesk I guess I can't really pick out a key but that just makes it all the harder for me to understand how it could be seen as upbeat lol
im so scared rn like omg it’s not scary i just feel like im gunna die now
I'm glad the drugs we bought for this band didn't go to waste.

MGMT
Cool
Cool and hip not
Is indie
3:25 is how you get a BAD trip lmao
its exactly like it man its so weird
Nah, that's like saying On The Run or One of These Days is going to give you a bad trip. It can be intense, but you ride it out and you're generally rewarded on the other side.
That part just made me feel like I was dying. Never combine drugs kids
@@sydisawesome1 then you havent had a seriously bad trip. there are bad trips where you can learn a lot, and there are bad trips where you're not going to take anything from it. ive had experiences where it was so bad i've just curled up in a ball on my bed trying to ride it out. i got absolutely no meaning from that trip, and it was all in all a disastrous night. another night, when I was tripping a friend pulled a GUN on his mom, needless to say that sent shit straight south, and I walked about 8 miles to get home in the middle of the night. these are experiences that taught me essentially nothing, but just ripped my mind apart for hours on end. there is definitely such thing as a bad trip.
@J R In what instance and for what reason? Those are my two bad trips and I couldn't count the number of positive trips I've had. Please, provide me some good evidence as to why psychedelics are bad.
This is one of the closest LSD visual representations I've seen. Top work video creators.
This is DMT my dude
This is very similar to the visuals I have on shrooms. All psychedelics cause crazy trips, my friend.
absolutely looks like that dreamscopeapp was involved
Blue Eyes White Privelege uhhh have you not seen time to pretend
King Green Damn. Somehow I don't believe I have. I've listened it to death but never watched. I'll check it out.

Never seen anyone capture what a bad trip is like so accurately before!
Angela Palmer the seemingly endless time loop, the twisted faces when his eyes are closed, the feeling of being at the hospital fighting for your life, and the laughing nonexistent faces are all things i’ve experienced in a terrifying acid trip
@@trashboat6215 How many mics of what did u take
what do you mean by bad?
@@trashboat6215 the loop is the worst and the song also has this weird winding up & down sound in the background that is really reminiscent of what I hear when a trip turns sinister

It's gonna be called little dark age

You were right ❤
5 years later this aged extremely well can’t wait for the new one
This song puts things into perspective for me. In the end, nothing matters. We’re on this journey of life for our souls to have a human being experience, which includes all the joy and suffering along the way. It’s supposed to be that way. That is life.
I love and fear this song. This is by far the most accurate portrayal of how the mind/soul slowly withers to black after a morbid event. You're reality slowly stops existing. your brain becomes mush. The slow realization that YOU are fading. In the end... Black.
@Yeast Yeast just a matter of time my friend.
there won’t be anyone experiencing colors. No black, no white light, just nothing
For me it was more about wishful thinking. Suicidal thinking. Which is why the part about feeling nothing after dying sounded so optimistic. I dunno why, but to me it seems the main character is laden with guilt (“I’m mean and I’m evil, don’t call me nice”) and is longing for release.
In any case the way you describe loving and fearing this song is spot on. It’s an awesome piece, but it also shows you the dark side of life quite nakedly.
@@FabricioVargas91 that’s the thing. Death as we currently theorise it to be isn’t just darkness and shadow. It’s a nothingness that we quite literally cannot imagine.

The most disturbing thing about this song is that it all makes complete sense.
It makes complete sense that nothing makes complete sense.
So true
Does it, though?
@TheRealOJ32 you like it enough to watch the video and comment 2 times
@@elegant_lobster_6472 You misunderstand, he's not here for the song, he's here for the attention he gets for not liking it
who else loves when he goes "YEAH!"

Delays are amazing
me but also when he says every other word
My favourite part
You should listen to song "Impures - time"
For me the lyrics of this song are soooo amazingly written and I interpret them in a very perticular way. The not wanting to be percieved as the nice guy and doing some nasty things in order to change that perception, as well as being fed up with friends who don't realy care about you and always "have somewhere to be at 7.30" or "have some work to do" so they blow you off. And finally the death of your old self portrayed by the gunshot happening right before the chorus kick in and the words "you die". Also how at this point music presents this sense of a relief in the melody and the harmonies, because the version of yourself that you hated and that was making you miserable has died. You told these toxic friends to go fuck themselves, you are no longer leting them push you around and disrespect you. And those one liners that are so simple but hit so hard like "I'm not that nice", "go fuck yourself", those words that you always scream inside but are afraid to say out loudd. Goddamn this song has so many great ideas executed in such a fantastic way and on top of that is so relatable, I fucking love it.
man mind is so epic mmama mia, i can clearly notice he is talking with Is head, or listening to it, from a long day doing stupid things he smoke a joint a let his mind as free as he can, telling to him semi random things like in a dream state. What u say make sense too, what mgmt meaning was or is, surely make sense too, so what is it, what is the point? hahaha be good and listen to sadhguru, your welcome folks.
@@mena2138 Yeah i mean there can be many interpretations of the lyrics for sure, thats what beautiful abou them as well. I like yours too.
No this is clearly about a toxic relationship and arguing with each other
It sounds like lines from two people having a domestic
The song could be about suicide too, "I'm ready to blow my brains out", "it's permanently nice", "I won't feel anything"
Besides this video being a visual masterpiece, there's just something about that last line "I heard you the first time" that sends chills down my spine. Beautiful and unnerving.
WashupCyclone ikr, that soft voice losing in the empty it hits so strong
Love the Katsushika Hokusai fractal wave picture dude. Very cool.
WashupCyclone I felt the same bro. But I don't feel that anymore I keep waiting for that shiver but it never happens.
WashupCyclone yesssssss!!!
That's cause him realizing that she in fact murdered him, his wife.
This song is criminally underrated
EDIT: You don't all need to convince me I'm wrong, our perspectives are different I suppose, let's agree to disagree lol
das rite
oh shit whats good diddle
So is the band!
11 millions views
criminally underated
not sure about that but the video is a masterpiece of art.
Me, half way through the video: wow I NEED to watch this on acid, it’d be amazing
Me after watching the whole video: yeah no nevermind
Watch the video for breezeblocks on acid
Haha was just thinking the same thing.
Hahaha, exactly what I thought.
BRO OMG, I thought the exact same thing but fuck dat shiiiiit!!!
I thought the same hahaha
This song is truly the perfect expression of the energy of creation. Bittersweet Melancholy
You might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like MGMT
I really believe this is one of the greatest songs ever made. It gives off a feeling I can’t describe. The music video just magnifies it too
agreed
Mystery and curiosity blended in a psychedelic way 😶🌫️
For me it’s melancholic and yet relaxing.
This is one of the most incredible music videos I've seen in my life.
waterglass21 oh yeah...try lullaby by the Cure
Watch asap mob-yamborghini asap rocky-Lsd
Juanito y los clonosaurios yeah thats another great one, but I find this even better
good ones, but they pale in the face of this
Спасибо.!

@Alan Nahuel +++
I’d love to hear it
This video gave nightmares to my nightmares
This is the most visually stunning music video I’ve ever seen. And I fucking love this song, I missed these guys.
stev6963 you should check out music videos directed by "BRTHR", they're pretty overwhelming
stev6963 wow! You have seen many videos huh?
@@randomdude189Grow up dude
That feeling when driving listening to this incredible song and out of nowhere hearing the evil laugh haha beautiful !!!...
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like MGMT. I usually like older music but these are two of my favourite modern bands
I’m so obsessed with this song/video. No words can describe how they make me feel. AHHHH. I guess that works.
that woman with the blood scared the shit out of me
Agreed, the look on her face is just disturbing.
Her face is weird as fuck.
@@Pointless_Ok thats cause were the bloody horror
I like their new style so much !
Cookie 340 it's more like Hot Chip and Metronomy
When I first listened this song, I was lying on my bed and randomly clicked on this video seeing its unique thumbnail. I was holding my phone in my hands while the audio was being played on a bass boosted speaker kept on my chest and the experience was something else!
I thought that I was diving in the video without even getting high irl and getting euphoric sensations.
Really appreciate the efforts put in to make this song and video. Loved it!
Jesus Christ, this is terrifying SOBER. I can't imagine what it was like for you poor souls that tried to watch it high.
cursed
I’ve experienced it. Decided it would be a good idea to eat 700 goddamn mcgs of acid. Horrible time, absolutely terrifying. The doctor scene was probably the most accurate thing I’ve seen in a while
HORRIBLE. HAVING A DAB TRIP. DONT.
DAB LMAO BAD*
It’s awesome to a morbid person. It scared me but I liked it.
I wanna have this song played on my funeral, for the irony
Same
That's how I feel about congratulations
Katzen König fuck you
Katzen König now that's a bit rude, is that how you treat beautiful women irl too?
A Small Babby you must have an interesting look on life mate.
There is a bit of video in your lsd
Idk if ur joking or what but if you've ever done acid this video is like the closest video ive ever seen to an actual acid trip (later in the video it starts to look more like a DMT trip)
i want try lsd
especialy the rainbow colour view is really close
The way it freezes and them moves at the same time, it's hard to explain but your body feels that on LSD if you relax. Director 100% does psychedelics.
LSD is great
First used to listen to this song religiously at a really bad time in my life. If you’re in a bad spot in your life don’t spiral in self pity. Get out there and make the changes you know you need to make, life is beautiful if you allow it to be. God bless
I’m there, in the bad spot now. Divorce is upon me, perhaps. Pray for me .
@@Youarelovewalk The only way out of a bad situation is through it. The smaller you define your world the bigger your problems will seem. Pray, work on yourself, put everything into perspective, and keep pushing forward and you will get to the other side of the tunnel brother.
I feel better with MGMT - Kids
What if you're poor?
you all might laugh, but this video saved my ass. i really did have somewhere to be at 7:30
Same
Even if life is feeling like absolute shit. . . Why waste your one ride? There is always something to laugh or smile about if you go find it. Thats what I like to remember whenever I feel 7:30 creeping up on me. lol.
Hello Sophie
I've rewatched this many times and each time I notice something new which plays off something else in another part of the video.. this is actually a super intricate story.
Micoola Any theories as to what it all means?
Junkers maybe something along the lines of how the monotony of the same tasks that you do in everyday life, that you don’t really think about while doing, end up influencing who and what you are more than you realize. For example the first morning he wakes he reaches in the blue loops cereal to eat, the second day he does the same but it is caught from a different angle. Then when he ‘dies’ there is that scene where everything is made of the blue loops cereal. And there’s also the scene where everything is covered in eyeballs, which references the eyeball on his keychain, which he picked up each day when going to perform
I feel like this video is meant to be seen on acid as you notice ever detail and put everything into "the bigger pictyre" also the beginning and end of the video are very similar as the screen becomes smaller in the end and you don't really realize it until it's super small. Idk just a thought
It almost seems like the guy performs and his wife is there to support him. When the light fixture falls and hits him in the head and kills him.
Then he gets stuck in a time loop, almost as though he has to continue living through the same shit.
Like a "purgatory" or something.
Maybe I'm reading to much into it, but also when only a part of his eye drops, it's almost like saying half of him was already dead anyways.
This sums up to me, 'you live, you die. So go smoke and get high'
Almost seems too that after he's dead "which you can tell when he dies.. by how everything goes from "reality" to "unrealistic" Everyone there seems to move on without the guy, like his life didn't necessarily have a deep impact on any of them.
As if they all kept going through the motions of living. This really showcases how small that we all are in retrospect.
Who edited this, we need more of him
or her
*produced by Jamie Dutcher if u wanna be technical. better habit to not assume the default of cool things are hims
duo called Glooby's world also did a promo video for Bob Burnham's Eighth grade you probably want to check out
@@smelsart the editor is a man
Aiden Page and the producer is a woman and not every editor is going to be a man. the point is the assumption
Ain’t nothing positive about this song and yet, I have obsessed over it for the last few days. So dang catchy to me.
joe rogan: Have you ever tried MGMT?
*tried
joey diaz : Ya bro, that's intense shit
MDMT
It's bananas. BA- *NANAS!*
@@Fun-ry2uk it happens😹 but I noticed it too🚧💀🇺🇸
This is the final boss of videos to watch while trippin
MustacheWaffle no watch tipper ambient lmao
Fuck no. I know myself. I wouldn't handle it well.
Lesson of the day: Don't eat Glooby Loops
It'll get you fucked up so hard
Lesson of the day (for me): Eat more Glooby Loops
This song amplifies the strange style mgmts music videos have, great song!
it's beautiul. I have to steal this song
Jacek Zamojski it’s a hit song!
lol
Me and Death, solid as they come
Me and Death, it's not a question now
(I Love You Too, Death)
could seriously be funny to do though.
After I finish this Good Boy Fudge, I'm heading to the studio.
