the flaming lips In the Morning of the Magicians

[aBheuss]

well done.

[mikelikesbama]

What a great god damn song

[FireTheMarshall]

i really love this album, but any time i listen to the flaming lips i just want to listen to she don't use jelly.

[TKTrav]

this is how I feel right now... @OG_93_StaLLonE can you dig the artistry?

[Kavorkable]

gaaaaaaaah i just commented halfway through the song and had to again at the end. fucking love this song

[justawanderingirl]

This song reminded me just how much I absolutely love The Flaming Lips

[burroughscurt]

Are you experienced? Wish I'd had this song to go with Pink Floyd back in the 70's!!!! But all is well, I got it now.. ;)

[ozzy8795]

fukin love this song!

[butterflyslice]

My first time to trip DMT was to this song..when I first took the hit and blasted off, I immediately began to look around to try to suck all could out of the experience before my experienced buddy told me to "sit back, close your eyes..the visuals are breath taking" I did and when I felt content I opened my eyes to see my two beautiful friends LED hooping to the music and it was bliss. I listen to this song often to reminisce on the 15 minute experience that changed my life

[0screamtodream0]

@butterflyslice Aha bro!

[Kavorkable]

@butterflyslice took 5 hits of lsd for the first time and a good friend had me experience this album/the flaming lips for the first time - it changed my life.

[butterflyslice]

@itsmykylew My experience on DMT was likewise..

[butterflyslice]

@wheyman1..what does it matter?

[Toris1000]

God I love this band.......

[Mjvb2012]

Even though Grouch and Eligh stole this dope ass beat, I still love it. "Say G ( g g g ) and E ( e e e) , ,,

[MrGigg1es]

this girl broke my heart and all i could listen to was this song.....

[itsmykylew]

I feel like this song is about tripping at night simply, and then seeing the sunrise i experinced this a few times, and at the end of your trip your not totaly gone and you can think, what is love and hate? what is anything? nothing matters right now, you are just at bliss the state of nothing, total relaxation to absorb the world around you, when your brain is at complete rest, then it becomes the sponge to soak up the beautiful world around you.

[brokenseatbelt]

@itsmykylew I've thought the same exact thing.

[BigDogsDangler]

B...... U........TIF.......... UL

[Jekkolin90]

muy bien

[gayblueduck]

I've been through 5 pages of comments, and haven't seen the word ''faggot'' once.

I love you guys.

[LoveJessicaRie]

@gayblueduck ...well now you just ruined those 5 pages.

[OneWhoLivesThere]

Waiting for this song to be used in a film to great effect

[malhobo]

omfg... how come i never heard of this band here in Brazil? they're amazing! this song is epic!! thank you for sharing it with us!!

[ecomama34]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAZING song.

[sincityq]

saw a Yes jam in 1975 and I was so stoned just from the music... just like this

[cocobunny2121]

somewhere near the end, it hit me like, shit, this song is eargasmic.

[thedudeabides1977]

Not an enormous fan of The Flaming Lips, but this song blows my mind :)

[brokenseatbelt]

Man, this is so awesome. The lyrics are beautiful.

[melvincrover]

I ONLY OWN TRANSMISSION AND ZAIREEKA, IS THAT WEIRD?

[CherryGarcia15]

@melvincrover YES IT IS VERY WEIRD YOU ARE WEIRD HAHAHA

[123456789058909]

@KarmicAnarchist Some people are just retarded. Wait. Where did my razor blade go?

[highonfire3653]

ive tripped to this i almost cried it was soooooo beautiful no joke i was about in tears of its shear beauty and relaxation i was just like these guys get it!

[RobotNinjaTaco]

Awesome

[emzyz1]

I literally thot that those odd noises that sounded like bubbles were my skype making noises to me...



[johnytoreno]

this sums up coffer for me.

[HamSandwich09]

Wear headphones people, and you'll hear the bass loud and clear.

[host47]

@HamSandwich09 lol funny

[twasbrillig33]

Very Pink Floyd-ee (Meddle)

[darkbit1001]

was the title of this song inspired by the book of the same name?

[BrisSexIsOnFire]

@darkbit1001 I'd presume so, it would be a pretty big coincidence otherwise :L

[rynox77]

Great knitting music.

Just kidding, I don't knit.

[mwbtc]

@rynox77 Hahahahahahaha.

[108rockmusic]

One of my favorite flaming lips song

[prizzy24]

thanks for putting the whole album(:

[jman1100]

@lexep777 i love that comment!

[trollitis]

The flaming lips take me there

[lostyet]

In the Morning of the Magicians - read the book

[ludwigvan17]

The intro is amazing but I'm not crazy about the vocal part. Again, though, lol, that instrumental part is badass.

[ChrisFreedoms]

classic album pure music..masterpiece album..flaming lips take you on beautiful journeys thanks!!!!!!

[Radiohead17321]

i want to get stoned to this song

[gymnastgurl814]

heard this song while on acid and got some crazyyyyyyyyyyyy revelations! i love the flaming lips :))))

[gymnastgurl814]

LOVE THIS SONG!!!!

[livvytweet]

love the flaming lips! there awsome!!!

[arinross523]

this and OK Computer are the Dark Side of The Moons of our time

[primus328]

@arinross523 I feel like that's going a little bit too far. Dark Side Of The Moon is sort of untouchable. But this is a damn good competitor. And OK Computer.

[arinross523]

@primus328 rite, I mean there may never be another album which is on the level of The Dark Side of The Moon, but as far as the past twenty years are concerned, this FL album posesses that evocative quality which Pink Floyd hits over and over. But Radiohead are the kings, I was born in 84 and they are the true musical magicians since I've beena live

[bottlecapbill19]

@arinross523 I agree. I spent a lot of my teens listening to OK Computer. I didn't get turned on to this album until my early 20. However, Those two albums are definitely on my top fav list.

[TheFourthHouse]

my favorite song by TFL. Awe-inspiring and beautiful are the only words in the English language that come close to describing it. Love the synth, very mysterious.

[TheMartinrt]

i've just bening told off, 4 listining 2 fucking good music! Idon!t no

[bobsodium68]

Just discovered it on the webradio 3WK Indie Rock. Nice song and nice band.

[gusemcontra]

Truly spectacular. It's like an epic novel or film.

[Silvamedalist]

same fob with a sub there's more than enough bass and it is clear, go get a tiny subwoofer for your PC.

[ebusive]

This is it! I was introduced to the Flaming Lips by way of this song. I could never remember what the song was called, all I remember is that it was an amazing song and I HAD to drop whatever I was doing at the time and...just listen.

I'm glad I found it again. Thank you so much for uploading it.

[sweetadeline003]

in love



[theMuranosBand]

"As the dawn began to break, i had to surrender. The universe will have it's way, to powerful to master." meaning this life has much more power than the power you possess or sometimes it seems that way, that you may never get everything you want out of this life, this gloryful life.

[santos9780]

Say G & E... ever thought hip hop would sample the flaming lips. lol

[arinross523]

gorgeous song

[GeorgiePPuddinPie]

Luv this band SOOOO much...

[penisdamage]

good art cost money. wayne is not rich by any stretch of the imagination so buy their shit if you want to be a part of something as beautiful as the flaming lips. plain and simple these guys have families and they eat real food like you and me so support them !

[funkmonkey333]

I encourage everyone to actually BUY flaming lips stuff. These guys are awesome and they got COMPLETELY FUCKED by early P2P downloading. This was their breakout album and they didn't see a cent for it, thats why these songs pop up on car commercials from time to time. But seriously these guys probably had ten albums downloaded for every one they sold. We are enjoying this for free im sure from their perspective this album which contains an insane amount of mixing and editing, wasn't worth it .

[a70921]

@funkmonkey333 Im all for buying Flaming Lips stuff, shit I got alot, but really these guys aint hurting for money. This album they didn't get a cent for has gone Gold. The car commercial stuff, they donate all the money to charity. Shit I mean they spent $10,000 on fucking balloons for New Years. There doing alright I think we should learn to care less about money and just concentrate on the the love that's another lesson the Flaming Lips like to preach.

[J0n0tanII]

@funkmonkey333 I bought the Vinyl of this album last week without even hearing it before! I don't even have a record player, that's why I'm here :)

[MultiStonedAssassin]

I'll certainly recommend it to all my coffee shop & art gallery folks, one love! :D

[816murphy]

Man I like how you got all the songs of the album on the video. Its very handy. Thanks.

[wheyman1]

What is love and what is hate? And why does it matter?

If anyone finds the answer please let me know.

[andrewloures77]

@wheyman1 42

[i69ssdd]

smoking weed to this is amazing

[crazyexstacy]

@voodoowarlock333 4 full albums not all four albums. :P

[danielkay1994]

@voodoowarlock333 learn to read before making yourself look stupid.

[aderuno]

G&E Sample

[lexesp777]

riding a horse to this is amazing

[CentraljocK]

@lexesp777 I tried to close my eyes and imagine riding a horse to this song. but I kept falling off.

great comment. everyone should post it on every music video they like on youtube.

[dagnut]

@lexesp777 I'd rather ride my girlfriend....but hey each to their own not here to judge

[clebrowns071]

@lexesp777

Is this a heroin reference?

[Ganthir]

@lexesp777 Just tried it with Shadowmere and you were right.

[fullmetaljkt]

3 ppl have parkinsins desease... for hitting the thumbs down

[TheTrixterz]

Anyone got a bass tab "? I've been looking everywhere and I can't find a single one!

[nicholaswheeler]

LOVE NEVER DIES

[nicholaswheeler]

@atraldreams whoa man thats some deep shit and some trippy shit

[crazyexstacy]

<3 this so much...I close my eyes and the swaying just takes over.

[fullmetaljkt]

@ 302 likes and 3 dislikes... this video has a 99% sucess rating lol. and by the way... those 3 ppl dont know anything about great music. very mesmorizing tune and majestical lyrics. love the lips.

[alexwritestube]

wow... what a song! the grooves and guitars and orchestration are captivating. Does anyone know who is the lead singer in this tune?

[alexwritestube]

@alexwritestube ....ok sorry about the question, i did some google refer and its Wayne Coyne. I like this band!

[mrmazlyn]

ah shit, dat song is wikked!

[flair99000]

watch?v=8AvWqWLpHlQ

Best mashup.

Even better when your chied.

[zoeleonardd]

Does it belongs to the first album of The Flaming Lips? 

[sonicprimitive]

@zoeleonardd No, this is their tenth, I believe.

[superorangeish]

Cenral Park, N.Y.C.,on thee most beautiful night of the summer, w/ full moon on the rise , crickets chirping, you could hear a pin drop, and the Flaming Lips doing this song , was incredibly beautiful. The moody keyboard blending into the acoustic guitar and Wayne's heart felt lyrics and vocal styling was mind - boggling, melting into the moment of the summer night. An all-time classic concert memory. It overtakes me! Thankyou universe for the Flaming Lips!

[Hughesta74]

Thank you, Rock Band 3, for introducing me to this band. This is some of the absolute... just, fuck, this music... I can't stop.

[CrAzY100101]

@Hughesta74

Remind me to go ahead and get rock band 3.

[robyculver]

Drums on this song are so sick

[TheAxes4six]

@MrIndoorsman join the club, man. :)

[Twisted548]

George, I will always think of you when I hear this song....Rest in peace my brother.

[dropdeadESCAPE]

@MrIndoorsman lol

[LightK44]

I love the links in the video. More people should do that

[giga0524]

@1225grl This song rocks my mind like a drug! I wanna take the record break it into 2 peices, then take one half grind it into a fine powder, snort it like cocain. Then take the other half melt it into a liquid then inject it into my veins. All while listening to this album in the backround!

[ihaterobbie123]

It's a shame the bass is lost over youtube, the song doesn't sound as good without it.

[TheLemurofLove]

@ihaterobbie123 My skullcandy headphones will take care of that :D

[yugiohforizzle]

My bose noise cancelling headphones...even better haha. sounds amazing

[fob199]

@ihaterobbie123 get a subwoofer. sounds excellent on my speakers.

[Tracebebo]

@ihaterobbie123 If you turn the bass on your speakers all the way up you can hear the bass :)

[DrNowhereman90]

@ihaterobbie123 the song sounds good no matter what.

[soaper4]

@ihaterobbie123 -

Good thing my headphones have amazing low-end response! The bass still sounds pretty quiet, but it definitely sticks out for some reason.

[nabijemtepedercino]

@ihaterobbie123 buy some 100W speakers, you'll hear the bass alright, it's not down to youtube

[SuperCritic411]

This song was so amazing in concert, I love it

[spence9302]

how have i never heard this song or really listened to these guys? you all are witnesses to a beautiful new friendship.

[JOKAMAJA]

Beautiful...Pretty...and I Love It!!

[gottalovemymovies]

This song was AMAZING live.

[westparkwolf]

Goosebumps all over my body

[superorangeish]

This song live in Central park under a full moon in summer was unreal

[rymcmanus]

and robot sympathy

[rymcmanus]

It's so hard to believe that the bassist didn't even know how to play before he joined the band. He's just in the zone in this song and ego tripping.

[sleepinwalrus666]

i begin to tingle and tear at the latter half of this song, and i'm from a family of morticians. beautiful, beautiful music.

[jenirocksotb]

man.. . just beautiful... makes me happy... hopeful...

[magicmushy2010]

got this album years ago lost it ! forgot how amaing it is -esp after a bob marley fat one :)

[TheOtherTableXD]

Which 2 people thumbed this thing down? They must be burned on a stick NAO.

[Quirk29]

This song is excellent.

[alteregoash]

Goddam hippies...

[trickster203]

That track is so POWERFULL

[katakotia3]

@Livfor1Love, I disliked it just to ruin your comment. I do really love the song though.

[JamRules96]

Do you wanna' know what song is better than this?? I don't know yet.

[Livfor1Love]

Not one person has disliked this song. I think that says something

[WhoisJacqueFresco]

no dislikes :D

[3R1CtheRED]

i wish i could just keep clicking the "like" button over and over and over and over and over and......................

[TheWanderingsole]

two words...flaming lips...enough said

[AllTheNuttyBits]

@TheWanderingsole

No shit.

[mrfudgeyhead]

This album melted my brain the first time I heard it, just me and my best friend in an ambient room, furniture thrown around (rearranging half done) and stuffed animals absolutely everywhere. It was one of the best experiences ever, one in the morning, in that tranquil sleepy state with Yoshimi, it was amazing.

[Pringles313]

i really like the intro part. its so trippy! does anyone know where i can get a remix with just that part? cause i would really love listening to it while i'm longboarding

[clutchmc22]

Awesome! Hip hop producer/rapper Eligh sampled this track....Sick!

[cm5891]

I think this song's about magic mushrooms. That's what the title means. 'Cause I listened to this song watching the sun rise after a night of trippin'. And I swear it was life changing. You just have all of those thoughts running through your head, you can't really remember what happened. But, you just learn to let go, and just exist. Just live. Why does it matter? The universe is too powerful to master. I don't care if the song isn't about that. I like to have my own interpretations on things.

[rynox77]

@cm5891 That wasn't my impression. I don't want to start anything, just want to offer my opinion. The song talks about the "morning", perhaps the dawning of civilization and you really get the image of peaceful animals in a field or by a river. "What is love and what is hate?" draws into question the higher social constructs of human beings. "The universe will have it's way/too powerful to master" like maybe humans were destined to evolve into socially complex and haunted creatures.

[cm5891]

@rynox77 It's an interesting interpretation. I like it. The best part about opinions are they can neither be right nor wrong. It's a great song. That's one thing we can agree on. But considering the Flaming Lips do things like drop acid, eat mushrooms, and smoke weed, we can't ignore the influence of drugs on their music and lyrics. Plus there is no mention of a field of animals, or social order. The song is in the first person, what he experienced. (While maybe trippin' on mushrooms).

[rynox77]

@cm5891 Yep, it's a great song, and you're definitely right, you can't ignore the drug influence.

PS- I know there's no mention of a field of animals, it was more a picture the music paints for me.

[mrfudgeyhead]

@cm5891

Drodz did a lot of drugs back when they made this album, but Coyne is just a natural eccentric, and Ivins is just the guy with the sunglasses.

Not a bad list of talents to have.

[jacderida]

man, i haven't listened to this in years, but it really is amazing!

it's bringing back all the memories of being completely obsessed with this album when it was released. just ordered this and 'the soft bulletin' on CD, both less than a fiver!

[hobbit151]

I lobe this sober too,,which isnt very often

[je14100]

"...and i couldn't remember...what is love and what is hate?"

[rydaaaaa]

BEAT i mean****

[rydaaaaa]

So who copied who??? Listen to Say G and E by Grouch and eligh...

If you listen to the been in the background its almost Identical.

[27scribbles]

Hey here's what I heard.

After WW2 these two guys wrote a book called The Morning Of the Magicians which was about Nazi cults and supernatural power and apparently if you could unite all the forces of nature into one amoral entity and control that power than you would rule the world. So maybe this song is speculating on an alternate present in which this has happened.

[snivelling]

MIGHTY

indeed, my friend

[Duenderelojero]

This sounds very 80s

[jasonistics]

I don't know why but I just love Waynes voice. Esp on this song. so powerful.

[AKsupafighta]

I think the the robot represents the two paths of life , the pink side represents the more loving , natural , artistic , positive way of life and the robotic side represents the more corporate,tough, technological , status quo way of life and the fact that shes battling it means that yoshimi is confronted with all these insanely difficult questions and life choices all of a sudden .Even tho she is scared she must in the end make the final decision .......... or maybe im just way to high! XD

[Kyonkyonpanda]

I'm seeing them live today. Very excited, considering they're awesome and it's my first big concert. :)

[ZangVsLang]

Was your life changed? They were my first concert and my life has changed in so many ways since that one August night last year!

[lovelyrita64]

For some reason this song reminds me of The Neverending Story. I love it

[TheMusic4Soul420]

Such a good song...

[sheylisimisima]

mee encanta esta!!

[maudug91]

their best song

[smgu6176]

One of their best songs out of a huge catalog of really great stuff.  The Flaming Lips really hooked me once Steve Drozd expanded beyond drums and started playing guitar and keyboard on their records.

[watashiwanachodes]

the best song to listen at a beach trying to figure out where does the ocean becomes the sky and the heavy sun shining bright upon the sand

[SmoothChino]

I love this song. For some reason, this song makes me picture a blue skies perfect temperature afternoon and relaxing in my room. For me, this song makes me feel good because I tend to get worried about life and love and the message I get from this song is to calm down and take life as it comes. I hope t his makes sense.

[avernikas]

who needs drugs or weed or anything, listen to this my friend,and grow mighty

[MrVicious]

i do

[itskarmabxtch]

listen to this on weed and not only will you grow mighty you will fly next to jumbo airplanes and see jack climbing the giant bean stalk.
