Empire of the Sun - We Are The People Trailer

[MrDanield30]

Can some one explain to me what the video about ?

[meistersel]

Shit

[moosiekins]

I always thought this song was from MGMT, the singer sounds like one the guys!

[fievle]

This has got to be my favorite song that they have made yet! Have you heard the house version? It doesnt sound half bad. Empire of the Sun-We Are the People Remix by Fievel

[Frederic94]

EotS reminds me of MGMT. Anyone who gives me bad thumbs admit that they like men.

[hectordegreg]

whose song is this? what's it title ? is ever so beautiful.

i'd like to listen to it .

[fullimmerzion]

the most beautiful song of 2009

[glawers]

amo icamole!!1 el lugar donde filmaron ese video!!

[AnEclecticMusicFan]

I am very surprised there are no 'Alstaa Pradistints' saying this is their anthem...LMFAO

[pusseycatselena]

best song ive heard all summer......reminds me when i was sitting in the field at V

[tcocos]

why would you make a trailer to a video? good song though

[convinzionee]

they probably used a lot of money for that so its pretty clear why they want to advertise

[RayKugan7]

You mean. Why would you make a trailer to a Music Video.

making trailers for videos are same as 2 movies.

[JASPERJONES89]

fucking KINGS

[randhearts]

Luke Steele is New Roy...hello U Roy...sorry the Sleepy Jackson.

[lefunk85]

The only thing why people say EotS is a ripoff of MGMT is because it's two of them and the extravagant outfits. If they cared about actually LISTENING to both musicians they would realise that they have more differences than similarities

[lily11193]

they remind me MGMT

[christmyer23]

just asking are they gay?

[VenusAsABoyFilms]

i hope so...lol

[Sabocalypse]

I hope not lol

[dinosweetums]

i want their clothes

[oddbodjr1]

Who makes a trailer for a music video >.>

[thedroppingcookies]

yeah wth

[gordinox6]

love it, this song is the best ever

[potatosurfer]

so random!

[HaloAceChaosLord]

These guys remind me of MGMT...

[t0ran]

I was just thinkin that.

[SchnuqqL92]

me too

[reptillia123]

may aswell call themselves MGMT2 id say

[x0x0yours]

agreed.

[peverest]

great tune

[theBoonarmies]

what a pair of fruit loops...

great song though

[jonathanknight1999]

quality lol

[jacko11100]

wtf didnt know they had song preveiws!!!

[UrbanDenim]

WTF did i just watch?? what a waste of internet bandwidth.. delete this shizznit!

[viannasec]

Puta que pariuuuu!!!

[mrmoniker]

Cynical record company exec's see MGMT's success and find these two obnoxious self-absorbed arseholes to jump on the gravy train.

[spasmodicwreck]

Except that Nick Littlemore (from Teenager and Pnau) and Luke Steele (from the Sleepy Jackson) have been around before MGMT even formed.

And I don't know about Littlemore, but Steele has always been this eccentric.

[mrmoniker]

And Mercury Rev and Flaming Lips were around before them and both had Dave Fridmann at the helm (or indeed playing in them) who went on to produce Oracular Spectacular!!!!

[blargbow]

sorry but these guys are very different to MGMT. plus you cant base an argument on the fact that 2 bands sound similar. thats just crazy speak!

[lasfinisimas]

hey man I totally support you...you are so right

[yallingupbeach]

mrmoniker hahaha! what an insignificant cynical self absorbed knob u r!

[Deaklon]

you were a child crawling on your knees for it...Oh wait :)

[MrsFlavell]

It is impossible not to 'copy' a style inadvertently. I am a Photographer, I recently saw an image by a well known Photographer, a Portrait, it was nye on the same as one I had taken for a client...did he copy me? I dont think so, what happened was called a coincedence, or rather two people who had similar ideas, this is a big world with a lot of people in it, it is hard to be unique based on those facts alone, dont assume 'plagerism', accept that people will like the same things sometimes.

[brad213]

That is a very rational explanation. Good work :)

[mgmtlova]

anyone whos says this is a MGMT ripoff, you're gay.

this is like soo much better than mgmt and they can sing.

i do like MGMT but this is better and good too is that they're an aussie band

so dont say shit about this empire of the sun.

[Franckie112]

It is a MGMT rip off and you should change your name...

great band by the way (for a bunch of rip offs that is)

[purplemonkeyninja001]

maybe ,for thoughs gensis who seems to think this band is a rip off, just maybe MGMT and this band sound the sam because they use the same kind genre in some of there songs(Psychedelic, or at least says wikipedia)

[theelfman]

This is a great film clip and these guys are very talented, they have wonderful chemistry together. I'll be front row at any concert they throw!!!

[MrEvilEye2001]

MGMT rip off. What's to explain?

[murrayno6]

I hate people who when a song reminds them of a band they love, its immediately "a rip off". Just enjoy music. if its not your taste, whats the problem?. They aint a rip off. When I first heard them it reminded me of MGMT yeah, but a rip off, nah.

ps

MGMT RULE.

and this band sound pretty good too!

[aliceisnt]

and what, MGMT isn't a "rip off" of another artist?

god, can a band not be INFLUENCED by another band even?

[Gggmanlives]

Someone explain the similarity to MGMT. Seriously. You REALLY need to start listening to more music is you think they do sound alike, because it means your knowledge and tastes are really fucking limited.

[AussieYobbo]

well said,i cant hear any MGMT influences besides the vocal similarity's.

[SssLuva]

This one isnt as good as walking on a dream but i still like it all the same

[03111954]

love the song not so sure about the video clip... but i've only seen the start

[rubblecovers]

the new video's up on their myspace now!

[seskilahpmo]

i love what they're doing, i've been waiting for this polycultural aesthetic!!

[HarleyBeans]

No they have the exact same vibe as MGMT. It's not a bad thing at all. They're both good bands who release good music so who cares about the comparison? MGMT have done well but lets see what Empire can do in the UK? They should be huge with any justice!

[Brandonism89]

when the video will be released?

[technomouse12]

i think they sound just like MGMT. Dont get me wrong, i like empire of the sun, but MGMT are better. Thats just my opinion tho :)

[fightthefoe]

they have a completely different sound, different time signatures, different overall vibe. Empire are established musos, mgmt are a fluke. Better basslines, haven't been bled to death so hard on commercial radio and television also. Thats just my opinion tho

[lloplop]

i dont get why there are no live performances uploaded on youtube. isnt that fucking weird?? i mean, it's not like these dudes are that rare. I don't get it. I think they just went gold in australia too! they played a tons of shows..WTF!!!  I'm pissed!!!

[clarissa61190]

I honestly cannot wait to see the entire video...

[JittoraAAHh]

Me neither!

[Brandonism89]

lol the last part in this vid made me laugh.that indian person looks like my friends father.hahahaah

[Horrorscope35]

We Are The People is the best song on the album, so I'm really excited for this video.

[tahiriveilax]

i love this song, my favourite song ever.

hope it comes out soon.

[Hollyj98]

cannot wait for this!

[halfthemotion]

epic.

[Estorvinho]

aaaaaaaaaa q massa , não vejo a hora de lançarem logo esse clip , massa hein , melhores do q nunca

[tronandtron]

It looks like a movie. Where did they shoot it... Arizona?

[Nickydo111]

I absolutely love this song and have played it like a hundred times. It's just a shame that this vid looks like it's going to be really similair to Walking On A Dream. Something different please!!!

[elenacanela]

you guys ar awesome!!! I cant wait to see this video!

Lots of kisses 4 u both!

[yamfun]

Hey release the full video!!!!!!

[MordisinalX]

Luke has changed Heaps since The Sleepy Jackson! It's like first he's in black, playing a guitar, now hes in blue, blonde hair and wearing... hell weird clothes. I dont know what happened

[tronandtron]

Anyone know when is this clip out?

[unanga]

haha it was a big statement. they are no way near as relevant or anythin. i just feel the creation and direction of their music is somethin really fresh, in a time where everythin is just recycled. GO EPOTS!

[theblake]

release video now!

[JittoraAAHh]

I WANT IT NOW!!!!!

[Brandonism89]

lol so desperate.

[JittoraAAHh]

Damn, this looks awesome! LUKE/NICK LOOK AWESOME!

[unanga]

these dudes are doing a MGMT but wayyyy better and wayy cooler. they are the ultimate act of genius since the beatles. lets hope the get HUGE!!

[drweth89]

haha i wouldn't go that far

[anime2192]

haha ok ur beatles statement would be argued heaps! and MGMT are not as cool or as talented as littlemore and steele

I haven't had much experience with listening to pnau and littlemores music

however luke steele is one of my favourite artists and I have loved him since he was about 19 haha he's amazing and with those 2 minds combined they will go far

it's just a matter of whether we appreciate their music enough, they are amazing

[th3ub3r]

lol lovin the vid wuts with the random genie dude in the end rofl

[Chase042]

Steele & Littlemore = geniuses.

[shutupbeezy]

i love empire of the sun!!

[iamx27]

This band is sickkkkkk....Cant wait till they blow up in the states!!

[clarelovesevermore]

[dragonbwoy1]

[clarelovesevermore]

[softspot4heels]

This song is my favorite on the album. Hurry up and come out, music video!

[darronclarke]

I CAN'T WAIT!!

[angie4josh]

WOOOO HOOO I CANT WAIT....who is empire of the sun anyway?

[lucasbutler23]

The best thing since the sun itself. Like a slice of the universe on a warm sunny day.

[anime2192]

luke steele and nick littlemore ARE the EMPORORS of the sun...or at least that's how it feels haha

[rubblecovers]

excited for this one. love this tune

[carmenismin]

[ManbearpigIsOutThere]

I'm so excited. Here's to having more Empire flooding my TV screen, and pouring out of my speakers! :D I'm loving the outfits, too, can't wait to get a better look at them :D

[yamfun]

I like We Are The People very much, also that Ted&Francis remix.

As for the video, the weirdness rating of Empire of the Sun has just surged to a new high, whew.

Also, congrats to Nick Littlemore getting yet another chance to get topless.

[caplin]

ayyy can't wait for it

[rjoffroy]

Can't wait to see the final video! It was a pleasure hosting you guys in Méxcio. Saludos

[tronandtron]

What the fuck was that!

[angie4josh]

[doughbro47]
