Animal Collective - In The Flowers

[telelevision]

Could you post the proper lyrics and not whatever shit this is? k thanks

[xionmf]

animal collective has become so amazing

[MonsieurRondu]

a lot of the comments on animal collective videos remind me of 4chan for some reason. i can only wonder why.

[zimgir5000]

mmmmmmm bitch mmmm bitch mmmmm bitch mmm bitch mmmmmmm bitch mmmmmmmm bitch

[xDeMitchx]

I'm surprised I like these songs, I usually listen to house music/dubstep/electronic music, and I'm completely blown away by Animal Collective and MGMT.

[Jaysusitsme]

The first time I ever heard this tune it blew me away.It still does.

[sonicbl00m]

acid makes me feel like I'm on this song

[OBrien548]

So overwhelming oh my goodnessssssss. When I listen to this my mind races so quickly. The beginning is so soft and then once 2:30 comes around my mind explodes.

[mariajhota]

I like this kind of music , it calms me down <3 Am I the only non-who likes this kind of music ?

[ATHFguy]

I think this is the most overwhelming song I have ever heard in my life.

[gamersmartin]

Allright, I you ain't a hipster you gotta leave.

[timidthoughts]

Avey astral projects no doubt.

[MrPepper1616]

Beginning = Forest Temple, OOT

[lacaleb321]

Reminds me of a modern day Pink Floyd.

[GuiltCanFillOceans]

I was trippin some shit listening to this last weekend while I was stoned.

[CoolVideoCrap]

Please make available for iPhone

[8888111188887777]

I like how the different time structures are just going off all on their own when it climaxes into the first middle part thingy. Then the bass drum sort of finally like vibes with the other frequency. cool sounds

[thepurplebottle6]

IF I COULD JUST LEAVE MY BODY FOR THE NIGHT. . .

[elizabetoorose]

Swallowed back down into the dark hole where I relate to this

[JonCollins008]

dont like a comment that is a reply its stupid

[Toro953]

I hate it when the top comment is a reply :/..

[pt3pry]

2:31 is a spiritual experience. Simple as that.

[7pl0ns]

The picture isn't moving, Animal Collective is just tripping you out with their awesomeness.

[Paycheck125]

I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer I'm a dancer

[shauno5166]

watches video: oh that's cool

pauses it: HOLY SHIT WHAT IS HAPPENING

[Gridlock471]

@shauno5166 That's EXACTLY MY REAcTION!!

[poseidonaskwhy]

@shauno5166 if you listen to an animal collective song and the only thing you notice is the album art then you aren't listening to the song. Every fucking video has so many of these comments and everybody upvotes them. What is wrong with everybody

[shauno5166]

@poseidonaskwhy I'm sorry but that is probably the most stupid thing i've ever seen someone get mad about

[poseidonaskwhy]

@shauno5166 yeah not if you see that exact same comment on every single merriweather post pavillion video on the internet

[poseidonaskwhy]

@shauno5166 i'm sorry but that is probably the stupidest thing i've ever seen anybody comment about

[shauno5166]

@poseidonaskwhy Original comment right here

[MrCrippledFrisco]

Is it just me or is that picture moving

[TheSentenceTrailsOff]

@MrCrippledFrisco It's an optical illusion. ;)

[sadied0g]

WHY DOES THE PICTURE MOVE?!?!?!?!?!

[schleimgurke123]

@sadied0g

Optical Illusion

[willonz]

This song makes me feel like spiderman swinging and jumping from rooftop to rooftop laughing my ass off as I do.

[XxFugufishXx]

I paused the video.... AND IT KEPT GOING.

[beaneroopie]

i shoot heroin in my taint because everything else is used up.

[mollisk]

There's a difference between boasting about doing drugs and saying, for instance, that this song is cool on acid. Because it is. That doesn't mean I'm boasting. That means I'm saying that I think this song sounds cool on acid.

[naota172]

@mollisk it sounds cool sober too. you know whats really impressive on acid? the grand canyon. you know what else is really impressive on acid? my curtains.

[mollisk]

@naota172 Yeah hahah this was in reply to somebody but I forgot who. Not sure why I didn't just click "reply" to them. But yes, this song does sound cool sober. All AC songs do

[delisandwich5]

this isnt as good as gucci mane, it has good beats but not that foundation with drums nah mean?

[Djobohobo]

@delisandwich5 wtf?

[naota172]

@delisandwich5 yes, I also see many parallels between Gucci Mane and Animal Collective. They *are* very similar, only I feel that Gucci is a little more sophisticated. I think Animal Collective needs to mature a little as a band, but once they've been around for a while I believe that their abilities may well surpass Gucci Mane's.

[cowboydanisoutofgas]

@delisandwich5 please leave you just made everyone facepalm

[MrBlalalalla]

@delisandwich5 are you trollin'? please tell me you are trollin', with one of the most idiotic statements I've ever heard. gucci mane fans don't deserve to listen to animal collective.

[MrBlalalalla]

@delisandwich5 are you trollin'? please tell me you are trollin', with one of the most idiotic statements I've ever heard. gucci mane fans don't deserve to listen to animal collective.

[TheOneartist]

@delisandwich5 LOL You must have gotten a good laugh from the comments you got man. Troll is successful, indeed.

[dy30n]

and check out Ananda Shankar - Dancing Drums, really creative psychedelic music like this

[dy30n]

check out a tune called Dave Pike Set - Mathar ,its nothin like this but its as good as this just groovy

[JustinKeanuRuiz]

Why do people take shit about people doing drugs who cares if they're doing drugs your not so you wouldnt know what the fuck they're feeling.

[gaggletalgeese]

boasting about making fun about people who make fun of boasting about boasting about making fun about doing drugs is only as cool as doing boast of the drugs at the same time in the flowers

[trollkingnumber1]

this is darkside101

[maddog20ist]

2:20 on is magical



[maddog20ist]

making fun of people who boast about doing drugs is also cool right

[ikahn17]

I NEED to find more shrooms.

[PatrickStumpBeast]

I can see why people compare this band to Pink Floyd. ಥ‿ಥ

[Flanly2]

My Brain is Animating this Video.

[dandog77]

getting high, listening to this song, and eating pizza rolls. best sunday ever.

[glacialwaysz]

just to clear it up, in the beginning, he's saying "I'm a dancer"

[Recyclingninja]

hey everyone! I boast about not doing drugs. that makes me cool, right?



[thelatestttplague]

MPP is one of the greatest albums of all time. I can legitimately put it up there with the Beatles and Hendrix and shit. People complain about music being "dead" but how could it ever die if people are putting out music like this?

[TheSensitiveBuffalo]

2:31 . WOW .

[BadTechnicalsupport]

@TheSensitiveBuffalo If I could just leave my body.. for the TA TATA TA TATA haha just amazing!

[sunshineaubreyy]

In the beginning, it sounds like the voice is saying, "River dance."

[lint789]

Doing drugs is for winners

[nge1301]

@lint789 *whiners*

[MCcookiebreath]

I couldn't stop seeing waves. what did that picture do to my brain?

[SneakyNapkinz]

3:06

[facecheek]

@SneakyNapkinz i agree.

[fordmustang1000]

If you stare at one of the green blobs, it stops moving.

[loekust]

ever since someone said "the beginning sounds like he's saying 'you bitch'" i can't unhear

[MrGuitarLessons]

so trippy

[chunkymonkeyed]

Fuck, this is what music should be.

[mucholyrix]

@zacharytheknight maybe u should actually try acid, see if ur assumptions are true.

[Tmuney830]

holy dick is that thing fucking moving? thats trippppppppin me out, man

[SclafaniBagni]

I always thought that the grinding noise at the beginning sounded like a machine saying "I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch, I'm a bitch."

[amy0411amy]

@SclafaniBagni Nah bro, it's saying Arrivederci. I'm pretty sure.

[SclafaniBagni]

@amy0411amy Ah true, broad.

[sean0milan0]

@SclafaniBagni "i'm a dancer" fool.

[SclafaniBagni]

@sean0milan0 I know what it really says, but I'm just saying.

[dy30n]

@SclafaniBagni very thoughtful



[chuchunezbie]

@SclafaniBagni I hear "you bitch"

[scandalousfiend]

Animal Collective is the shiiiit.

[guitarguy58p]

everyone thumbs down me cause i'm missing this show tonight

[normtheclone]

Seeing them at Merriweather Post tomorrow! Will I be able to score any drugs at the concert?? Will I be able to find people selling either acid, E, shrooms, or bud??

[mauxmcf]

best song....that is all.

[forcefulxcon]

Is this Coldplay? /haters gonna hate

[fadoodle100]

@forcefulxcon wtf no its in the title its animal collective lol

[defenestration1000]

WHICH ONE OF U MUTHAFUCKAZ GOT DA BIGGEST BLACK COCK!!!

[Shredwizard445]

Going to see them on the 9th

[sage333obama]

ALL CAPS CUZ I'M KEWL 

[Faeyted]

that picture still moves even on pause.



[RydetheTyde]

I fucking love this song, I can't hear the beginning lyric like the person with the top comment says though, maybe hes just baked out of his mind.

[XillegaltoastX]

2:27 :O

[KiersellMikean]

@gabrielsk8sallday

Merryweather Post Pavilion

[hildurukhaj]

Try scrolling up and down with your arrow keys while looking at the album cover.

[gabrielsk8sallday]

What album is this ?

[netoborito]

i want to show this to my mom and be like "it's pretty fun actually"

[chadalanhenson]

Optical Illusions FTW.

[jk0745]

why does it fuck up at 1:47?

[LadyStardust011]

is the album cover moving or is it just me......crazy

[VattanaThach]

@LadyStardust011 pause the video and you'll find out

[devaom420]

This makes me fall in love.... I'm not sure with what or who.... But it does....

[canef3ar]

9001 people like men

[atticbits]

funny.... acid th

[amyazn]

THIS gives me the chills!

[nardtardzTV]

If you look left to right really fast the picture looks as if it;s moving ,

[krixxx888]

1:17 "i feel indie"

[Chacha5678]

fuck yeah listening to animal collective w/o drugs

[ThePit42band]

Those green dots keep moving.

[cubballu]

ground breaking

[BearZzZz1]

lolz the video still plays when u pause it :D

[WarriorPoet2]

I CAN MAKE THE IMAGE STOP WITH MY MIND

[MrAlek445]

@WarriorPoet2 No you can't, you just stopped moving your eyes.

[phase866]

@WarriorPoet2 HOLY SHIT. I ACTUALLY DID IT, WTF.

[vinimgsp]

@WarriorPoet2 i can make it too! =D

[93Berra]

@WarriorPoet2 Yeah... you only need to stop moving your eyes. It called cascading and we do it all the time unconsciously with our eyes. It's a mechanic we have to compensate for our very small spectrum of detail in out vision.

[biffbiff123456]

hey everyone! I boast about doing drugs. that makes me cool, right?

[Squarmasaur]

@biffbiff123456 Get out of here with that shit.

[DimLantern]

@biffbiff123456 weed's not a drug man, it's a plant. cocaine is a drug.

[SclafaniBagni]

@DimLantern Cocaine is from the coca plant, dolt.

[DimLantern]

@SclafaniBagni cocaine is a refined drug made from a plant, as most other drugs are. Marijuana is just a plant that can be smoked or consumed as is. THC is the active drug in it.

[SclafaniBagni]

@DimLantern And would you defend refined THC?

[SclafaniBagni]

@DimLantern Kind of like how multivitamins are refined from various sources.

[DimLantern]

@SclafaniBagni Basically so

[Recyclingninja]

@biffbiff123456

sure is anti-drug propaganda up in here.

[Saint111Michael]

@biffbiff123456 what ever makes you happy bro..

oh.. and this song is like a cosmic wave of happy thoughts and water molecules...

[Enjubi]

@biffbiff123456 Get laid, dude.

[bodiddlywiddly]

@biffbiff123456 hater

[ashi022494]

@biffbiff123456 Not at all. You are just a loser who doesn't value his life. What a waste of space!

[xclassflare]

Escapism through dancing, music, good company, or chemicals. Simple.

[Domidget]

hooooooly shit i am so high

[nohj1000000]

... this is the second song ive heard that i almost love like it has moments of awesomeness but its just a bit too trippy to pull it together 4 me.. and i am wayy to not high on something to enjoy the trippyness

[TaliZorahvas]

The sadest part about this. Thinking that the song is 8:43 seconds but having 3 minutes of it being silence :_(

[FSquid]

I think it's 'can you dance?' like it's a challenge. They are challenging you to listen to their music and let it inspire you.

[quacktus]

any one else was thought the cover was an animation ? ;d

[HankF89]

@quacktus No.

[Gastronauticle]

If I could just leave my body for a night.

[mhatter5]

@ecuador78 I love how pointlessly hostile that comment is.

[gamermanx8]

pause it and then keep looking at it. See, it's not moving.

[musicmonster2008]

@gamermanx8 definitely still is for me

[goatseman5000]

@musicmonster2008

Its an optical illusion

[TheLastBaron16]

This is one of those albums where the music actually sounds like the album artwork...

[MrMut3r]

are you people stupid? its not moving. FOCUS

[HafkeBoyTellEm]

2:30... EARGASM

[ajay7536]

rolling does not make looking at that easy. well it kinda does.

[CupBallin]

cant help it im a dancer

[Army888]

is there suppose to be face in the album cover

[gizwiz95]

This is so frustrating because I'm trying to take a good look at this picture and it keeps moving.

[423likeajewel]

If I could just leave my body for the night...

[d2themon3y]

tell me thats not the acid...

[loser5million]

best song evaaa

[GLaDOSPulse]

@loser5million I dunno why I said that, I might be high.

[lpviii]

this is ridiculously good

[lyprov]

Whoa. Let your eyes glaze over while looking at the album cover. It turns into a series of straight, rigid tubes. And then once you re-focus, it's all melty again. SO COOL.

[methtrooper]

@lyprov woah dude....your right

[ecuador78]

it aint moving if u stare at one point bitch

[libbren]

nice optical illusion

[shelciAKAlilshadler]

I wasn't depressed or about to committ suicide. I was completely happy and confit with my life. But the first time I heard this, I knew it was the reason I am alive still. It helped me live.

[GLaDOSPulse]

I thought it was "you can dance" which had its pitch lowered and sped up?

[loser5million]

@GLaDOSPulse what are you talking about...

[FRIEDmason]

what?

[thestone311]

i feel like ive known this song my whole life...but ive only known it for 2 days

[Intelectual95]

25 people have objectively superior taste in music.

[craffte]

HEY THAT"S MY SHOWER CURTAIN!!!

[digopc]

I love listening to this song when hallucinating, when the line "If I could only leave my body for the night!" BAM! I'm in another world that has fireworks exploding around me!x

[linoproductions1]

HOLY FUCKIN SHIT. I'VE HEARD THIS SONG FOR OVER A YEAR AND I JUST NOW NOTICED THE BEGINNING IS SOMEONE SAYING I'M A DANCER. FUCK.

[Penultimate]

@linoproductions1 I didn't realize it until you said it just now. mind blown.
