This "song" has changed my perception of the Congratulations album. Now I see that MGMT tried to make one whole cohesive album without singles in a similar fashion as Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Of course, business did not allow a lack of singles.I can finally see the genius in this album.
this is the most epic commention an album ive ever heard in my life . It makes me want to listen to the album a billion times more to find what i was missing. purely genious !
@whynotfish I bought both the digital version of "Congratulations" on ITunes and the CD, and this track was just in the digital version, maybe that's because you couldn't find it on your copy of the album, if you have the CD.
@Arwinspeceis123 I know, in fact I took the lyrics from there...it's just a description of the songs (as you said) by Sonic Boom, the producer, with a background music, it's not an actual song, but it's like a bonus track because it's not mentioned in the track list, or at least that's what I think it is.
Well, I totally agree with you, I can tell you that here in Italy the only MGMT's song that has been played by the radio is "Time To Pretend", so MGMT are not very popular, and I discovered them and the other hits like "Kids" just listening to the album. Then I immediatly bought the "Time To Pretend" EP and "Congratulations" as soon as it came out, and I wasn't disappointed at all. Unluckly this video is blocked for copiright in Europe, and that's also why MGMT are not very popular here.
@SniperCinema thanks for the advice, but I've already bought everything I could find about MGMT (Oracular Spectacular, Congratulations, Time To Pretend EP and Climbing To New Lows) :D
I must admit that after listening to Oracular Spectacular and Time To Pretend EP for two years, Congratulations sounded a bit "odd" to me at the beginning, but after some time I really loved it too...
I can't believe I'm the first comment of this track!! Incredible album, more people should have a look at it, MGMT is much more than 'Kids' or 'Electric Feel'...
i actually thought it was andrew's voice

I listened this song while tripping on salvia divinorum. I was in panic, cause I felt that my body was becoming part of the building.

I don't think this is a bonus track, it's actually lyrics that are written on the back of the physical cd version.

This reminds me of the 1966 animated version of How the Grinch Stole Christmas.. haha I think it has to do with Pete Kember's voice..
