i remember when i used to download songs from limewire and i tried downloading a song by panic at the disco, but this downloaded instead... i loved it anyways
@mendozaj1990 You dont have to be on drugs to enjoy it,but if you are it will make the song more amazing then it already is and you will feel like you undertsand the song a lot more ^-^
can anyone just enjoy the music without drug references? yeah, they r great when ur stoned, but just as amazing sober. if you only listen when ur high, u miss so many beautiful elements of the work. and if u dont like it sober, why would u like it high? or vice-versa...
@brandonmartin96 Right? I'm 12 and every one is like 'oh this is so good when you're high' and I'm like Bro, shut up you can enjoy this music without getting high -_-
@basketballmc i agree. smoking and listening to music is great, but you dont have to go tell the world, everything sounds good high. you have to be able to enjoy something sober before you can enjoy it high. this song makes me happy
@brandonmartin96 When you like something high you automatically like it when you're sober. Also, I notice SO many more details about a song or a piece of art when I am high, it amazes my self to think about the details I notice high when I am sober.
When they're saying "come disconnect the dots" I personally don't think it's a drug reference. It's possible that the lyric is a reference to everyday life. "Connect the dots thoughts" meaning live your routine every day and never stop it. Think of this goal and what it takes to get there.
"Disconnect the dots" meaning, "let's get away from our routine and settle and relax."
this is the first song i heard from of montreal, i had this song since 2005, and do not compare them with panic at the disco please. i don't like emo :P
Yeah man, he's a real creative guy. When I saw Fire Zuave (they were opening for the Fiery Furnaces and Of Montreal) Kevin had some people onstage during Fire Zuave's set just doing wierd performance art shit. It was real entertaining.
Their last great album. Mixed the brilliant psych-pop of their earlier albums with an 80's-style dancier sound.
As for Barnes' sexuality, I think he's fond of taking PERSONAS who are bisexual or at least bi-curious, at least going back to the very first album with "Tim, Wish You Were Born a Girl" and "When a Man is in Love with a Man" from the "Bird..." EP.
True.. But in an interview I read he said he actually WISHES he were, but he's not. Haha.. I think I read it in a Spin magazine. So you can check it out if you want.
But I'm not disagreeing about the whole "married AND bisexual thing".
First of all, Kevin Barnes isn't bisexual. He's married and has a child.. He's just the most creative/artistic human alive.
Second of all, "coolman7272" and "southerlybeasties," if you're so knowledgable about music, what do you listen to that's so much better? I'm pretty sure it's either heavy noise or main-stream music with keyboard beats, which require no talent at all. And I doubt there's any creativity at all cuz you made it pretty apparent that you're not familiar with it.
I totally agree with the sentiment of most of your comment, but are you implying that a guy who's married and has a kid can't be bisexual? Because that's not true at all. Just because a guy's in a monogamous relationship with a woman he loves, that doesn't mean he's straight.
calling stuff homosexual suggests you yourself are a closet queer. at least kevin barnes is open about his bisexuality.
and to answer what the song is about, he is inviting a girl to do drugs with him. the euphoric high you experience when on whatever recreational drug is caused by the blocking of receptors in your brain. that's what he means by disconnecting the dots. and poppet is some British slang for love
why are people thumbs downing that, you realize the beach boys are often considered the second best band of all time next to the beatles, being compared to them is a great compliment to most any group
Anyone who thumbs down the beach boys does not know one THING about music. One of the bands the beatles were actually inspired by. The beatles were far superior but never the less...
I can't wait to see them in July...at the Hollywood Bowl...who else is going???? Let's go together...would love to meet some new fans...email me...fans of Of Montreal.
wow look at how straight laced kevin looks compared to the way he usually dresses on stage now. satanic panic is truly the meeting point between their elephant 6 side and their newer disco/krautrock/funk/glam side.
I see what you're saying, but I get what alliedtoasters was trying to say initially as well. I guess it's a little rash to call someone dumb based on a word misused.But now I'm focusing on something minor too.
UGH I HATE PANIC AT THE DISCOOO... Of Montreal rocks... SOCKS. I have no socks on, but that's because they've been knocked off after this song (wow, I never thought i could make such a bad joke). People think that Of mOntreal is a weird band and they are which MAKES THEM AWESOME!!!!
