great idea, but i feel like.. his rhythm is off. like, if he waited one more second from the start or jumped the gun one second from the start, it would sound better.
@SlightlyBurton Thanks. The final version is on my cd and it sounds much better than this. We spent more time fixing the sound; it's very crisp now. Maybe I will upload that one sometime.
if you cant understand it, then get your ears check, because I'm sure EVERYONE can understand it, it's very clear, and like he said, it's more clear in the CD. youtube makes it suck.
If you've thought about reality and the workings of your own mind with any kind of depth, then you'd realize a lot more in all of their lyrics than just what they are at the most basic level.
It's not about a woman or sex or any of that. If you've listened to the lyrics of all of Oracular Spectacular, then you'd probably realize that nearly everything is a metaphor. It's about 1. tripping, and 2 (which should come about as a result of using tripping to grow as a person) learning how to control your own mind, and thus your reality. "This is what the world is for--making electricity"--brain activity is nothing but electrical impulses.
I agree. I just decided to make this more friendly to other audiences with my verses, while still keeping the abstract aspects of MGMT intact. But the effects on the many layers of my vocals, when listened to on high quality and high volume, will add to the experience of tripping. My vocals are bouncing all over the place.
Oh, yes. I did forget to mention that I do like what you've added to it. It works perfectly and gives it something more that adds to the greatness! Good work!
ok what makes you think that the song has to be just about one thing, the thing about music and art is that it can be interpreted different from one person to the next..
and even when the artist writes it one way that doesn't mean people can't interpret it in their own way...
so stop looking for meanings of songs on google and think for yourself :)
I doubt MGMT are referring to themselves as lightbulbs in this song. Unless you live somewhere, where the meaning of being turned on is completely different than the rest of the world.
Thus, its not right to say that this song has no sexual innuendos whatsoever.
every time the guy starts raping, I *jump*

So... he just dropped some rap in over the parts of the song that are normally just instrumental?
How is that good? It's very lazy in my opinion. Plus, you can't even understand what he is saying.

Oh wow, google?
I heard him say it in an interview,
and I was saying that it's not anything sexual. mmmk?
Ha, don't you have better things to do?
Like not trip balls over someone you don't know's opinion on things? hopfully you do.

Not anything sexual?
"Baby girl, turn me on with your electric feel"

you're right i do have better things to do
but i wasn't tripping balls, i was just pointing out that songs mean different things to different people.
you're entitled to your own opinion on things and if you don't like it no one is forcing you to like it
