Sees magic trick: “pfft that’s fake, the bird came out of his suit.”
Sees him pull a bird out of bird: “HE’S A WITCH!!!”
@@dmac5108 thanks D Mac
@@dmac5108 wait huh?
I am amazed
His ig is @kidacemagic
HOW THE FUCK HE DID IT?????
I FEEL LIKE A KID, IT IS AWESOME
This video was way harder to follow than the music video
I couldn't agree more
True that!
Wdym
LOL AGREE, who would've know rightt
right
NO ONE IS GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE MAGICIAN!?
WHO IS HE!?
HOW ON EARTH DID HE DO THAT!?
the second pidgeon was under his suit so he just had to let her try to scape and then grab it quickly...
You're actually right, because before each bird comes out he touches his jacket slightly
I know right?! He was so cool and didn't come off as corny or condescending like most modern magicians/illusionists. He looked intense and a littler scary( like Gene Wilder's Willy Wonka)
whaaaat?
He looks like MLK
These guys are like 30 levels ahead of us in the symbolism game
@@Kristen-1-really ?
@@Kristen-1- can you give me the link??
I really love the dark/gothic 80's vibe on this video 👏💝 amazing!
Nicole Benavides Yep. Who's that beautiful goth girl playing synth?
@@DigitalMadrigal where?
@@internetuser8857 He means the one in the MV
@@DigitalMadrigal i heard that the director randomly asked her to be on their video, from tinder. Her twitter is frickenmia, she's an artist i believe
I live for the behind the scenes videos
Andi is Weird >uu
I love Andrews voice it’s so soft and sweet omg
I’m amazed by the magic trick
Seriously lol. That guy needs his own TH-cam channel! If he has one someone needs to link it up
I'm like: HOW???
So cool.
He has the birds in his jacket. If you slow it down to quarter speed you can kinda tell what he's doing. Even at quarter speed though it's hard to tell so it's really impressive.
Stuart D so, are you saying that magic doesn’t exist?
Its not a trick
I love MGMT, I've always loved MGMT. I want to share a little story. I like to collect CDs and the shop I would go to (which is sadly now out of business) is where I would buy them. Anyway, one night I made a late night run at around 10 and the store closes at 11. I was just going to pick up a quick CD and head home but I didn't really know what I wanted. Of all songs, The Handshake was playing on the overhead speakers and I was literally tapping my toe and almost dancing right there in the CD aisle. I asked the person working there what was playing and they told me which album it was from but not the song title. I bought the album instantly and headed for home. On my way home I thought I'd pop it in. I did, and it was a very pleasurable ride home. I get home and I kid you not, I probably listened to Oracular Spectacular about 4 or so times in full. It is to this day one of my all time favorite albums. I bought Congratulations the day it came out and got the coin as well. Definitely wasn't dissatisfied there either. Terrific album. I bought the self titled album and it appeared that not too many people were crazy about it but it has probably one of my favorite MGMT tracks on it, Alien Days. The second half of the album is a psychedelic treat as well. Little Dark Age which is your newest single which in my opinion couldn't have been released at a more opportune time, IS my all time favorite MGMT track. It's retro, it's new, it's psychedelic, it's goth, and it's exactly what I needed especially around Halloween. That's all I really wanted to say, I love this band and I hope you continue to make quality music for years to come.
Thanks for sharing your story, mate!
I love "Alien days" very much too, must be the synth I think, it's simply magic..
Dude that's a awesome story,thanks for sharing that. I love mgmt so much as well, I literally can't wait to see them in may
Well said, I heard their song kids on an episode of Beavis and Butthead and have been a fan ever since!
I literally got into this band by watching an old needledrop’s review of Congratulation, so I listen to the whole thing in track order (excluding remixes) on Spotify. And now, just being a half of month from watching the review, I’m hooked onto MGMT and I’m trying to get a physical copy of Congratulations and MGMT
Poxa que legaaaall
You can tell that this band's creative crew have a mind out of this world
AUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Hi fellow MGMT fans
Matteo Foca hi
Yo! Sup?
hellooooo friends xx
HI
Matteo Foca Hiya
*creates bird with fire*
we probably need to do that again
yeah alright, but look at the camera this time
*casually pulls another bird out of bird*
HOLY SHIT THE ILLUSIONIST AT THE END.
this song has seriously grown on me
Same haha
@@AisforArtemisThe way you still have it as a pfp. This song is really something special. I still can't pinpoint what, but it just transmits a vibe I haven't quite found anywhere else yet
@@EP-du8ne I'm absolutely with you. I have never ever felt the same listening to a different song
With every new piece of mgmt content that comes out it feels like i can breathe again. Ecstatic about new album.
It's the same house where they recorded flash delirium❤
Daniela Aguirre Really?
@@wuh-huw9950 yes
ah, i wanted it to be longer. and interview all the actors face-up close
Fun fact: this music video was recorded in the same mansion as Flash Delirium from 2010 Congratulations.
hey Ben, you and Andrew working on a new record is a VERY BIG deal to me, and many others.
Really glad that they released this. It's nice to see a more personal side of Andrew and Ben.
Living for this album release!
Do you want to know what this music video is about?
This music video is about kindda bad time that MGMT had between 2014-2017. After releasing their third album called 'MGMT' they reached the peak of their psychedelic-style career. There wasn't too much to do after this particular record, especially that they named it after the band's name - that sounds like this particular album had to be their masterpiece, the opus magnum of MGMT. Nobody was surprised that the expectations about 4'th ablum was really high.
They had to find some kind of new style, some other, alternative way for the band. ''Little Dark Age" (song and album) - showing that they finally got it after few years of searching. It was definitely hard time for MGMT where was only a little amount of concerts, almost nothing in media, small amount of interviews. They had to focus on surviving and try to rebound. I belive that all that things are described in this song and the video. Band had to find their new incarnation which wasnt too easy.
It was reminding living in the years of 1000-1300's - the mid-centuries - times when life was hard and death was all around the people. This is corresponding with lyrics - "The image of the dead / Dead ends in my mind". You can also see the black dressed man with face covered, who smoking e-fag - he is 'the death' in this video. He attend with the band everywhere - in garden with Andrew, in the room with Ben. They were feeling almost like the death get the body and become phisical person. It was all over the place when MGMT was down. Ofcourse I am talking about mentally-death - not the real dead.
Anyway there is a lot of symbols - magician's trick reminds miracle of re-birth the MGMT in 2018 with new album. Chopping the fruits is analogy to burning the bridges after Oracular Spectacular - the debut album from 2007 by which people are still judging band currently in 2017.
Good analysis and as I have no knowledge of it's story I saw it as dealing with some kind of illness like addiction or depression possibly a physical disorder idk but dealing with the process of suffering from said problems while dealing with the hurdles of everyday life the relationship with others who may be judging from their biased opinions or a family who shame them for drug use or cutting or manic moods. Your metaphorically on stage and scared they will always see your nakedness so wish to burn away history.
I think its about a little dark age
😮
8:07 wow Im amazed with magic
Satoshi eswc Fr tho how
Notice how awkward his arms are. The birds in the sleeve of his jacket.
Happyc10 shhh I wanna still being amazed
I don't think they are real birds
@@Dipsxi I think they’re real.
Does this song touch something deep inside, a hauntingly comfortable familiar place? It does for me..
This was absolutely incredible, the way it was shot and edited and how you really really had to use your senses to listen and follow what they were saying while also watching the screen for visual detail. I loved it and love the song
7:35 One of my most irrational triggers is someone throwing away a cardboard box without breaking it down.
All is well, all will be okay... Pet the bunny, rest your eyes and sleep and all will return to normal in the morning.
Not irrational at all. I hope they recycle
she shoulda been fired on the spot for that
Now I want to hear the acapela version :(
The video is so insanely good that I can't stop watching. I saw this in my recommended and got so excited.
I've been a listener for years and I'm really proud of where mgmt has gotten. The potential they had at the beginning grew into something beautiful and I'm honored to call myself a fan. Keep it up. I'm expecting a lot from this album honestly
I loved ben's commentary
Whoa, that was great! I feel like getting back to work making some music right now. Keep up with all your excellent songs!
whoa, had no idea the magician was real, thought it was edited
Glad you're back, greetings from Italy
absolutely brilliant band props to these guys. I can honestly say that this is the only band that I have partied to and also felt the like I was at the absolute lowest point in my life. You guys fockin rock.
OMG I'm so amazed by all the effort in the video. and love to see this kind of behind the Scenes of my favourite song of the year :D
This is so pleasing to watch man
I've missed them SO much.
“…Robert Smith meets Edward Scissorhands.”👏🤣😂
Woww! Waiting for the full album 💓
Many fruits were harmed during the making of this video.
It was a bloodbath... The juices of innocent produce flew everywhere!
I needed this
I want this album now
Great song, great video, can't wait for the album !! Thanx MGMT
Thank you for doing behind the scenes, i love them
this is amazing, thank you so much for this
i'll keep waiting
I was waiting for this video
Nice to see them after so long
i could listen to connan mockasin talk forever
You won’t.
Being a film production major and fan of MGMT...this video makes me content!
Awesome! Always great to hear insights from the source.
great video.. really looking forward to the album. have been enjoying your music since i picked up O.S. in 6th grade, a dozen or so years ago.. Means a lot to me, and I love all the singles so far. You're both doing great work, stay true and it'll show :)
I love The Cure...their songs and lyrics are so beautiful!
WONDERFUL SONG 🔝🔝🔝👍👍🔝
*you're Robert the doll*
I have one word for this song: "masterpiece"! Also I love the music video for it. The production is awesome!
The whole song
Is good for feeling sad on
a Rainy day.
Loving the behind the scenes and all.. but I’m stoked to hear the isolated instrumentation.
now this is epic
Amazing song my favorite
Thanks a lot ❤❤
Beautiful, suggestive and inspiring video: it seems to me a kind of Huysmans “À rebours” and Maupassant “Le Horla” extravaganza.
That was fun. The magician is CRAZY!!! That was dope!
I really enjoyed this video, little dark age is the best of all your best song 🖤
can we have a video like this for every song of their entire discography?!?!?!?
Without “ kings of summer “ I would never have known this marvelous band !
Oh god how much I‘ve missed them
Connan
Love it
THAT MAGIC. HOW
no pineapple was injured during recordings
No, not injured... But slaughtered, yes. Poor pineapple.
Pineapple lives matter
It's a great song and a great music video.
Awesome
love it
Connan!! You're Robert the doll!
great
mgmt is forever
Cool
super cool video
I LOVE YOU MGMT!!!!!!!!!!!!
This Little Dark Age put me crazy and I have a new perspective about this world(This Little Dark Age who We live and be awake and alive today)
This is such an amazing BtS video
my favourite song
The bird trick 👍👍👍👍👍👍
"who is Robert Smith?" :(
Pocahontas?
Story
By Smith. About a squal girl and fanasty story.
Who Edward Scissor hands?.
He definetely knows who's Robert Smith
Toda una obra maestra
This is great
I was especting that this man is so serious, but it result so funny :3
Andrew VanWyngarden
that magician tho
I'm sorry, one of the dynamics of your band is that one of the members is a vampire? I feel like I heard that wrong but where can I sign up?
Today is June 6, 2020 and this video has aged very well considering the state of current events in society rn.
It also has inspiration from Andrew and bens like thoughts on the 2016 election
@@qwerty_1871 they kind of are though, as far as the coof goes
@@qwerty_1871 they’re getting better?
@@mattmolloy636 It will never get better. It's how you see and tackle the upcoming problems that counts. Utopia is unreachable for humans in the 21st century.
Me encanta esta cancion
Ya estoy esperando su nuevo album :3
Yo igual.
Classic Ben, always subtle.
Really nice
Oracular Spectacular is by far my favorite of their albums....and I'm a super fan.
It's just the perfect combination of creative trippy weirdness.....with pop catchiness.
But.....this song is excellent. Gothy new wave darkness....and with a killer video to match.
Ranks up with the best of their older stuff.
Amo demais!!!
Eu Carlos também
Awwww yisssss
I grieve in stereo
the stereo sounds strange
