[JuannabisRoach]

wtf is that noise? Syd's cat way better

[GuitarHooker]

THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NorwegianWeed]

wish this was better quality

[xsamplexample]

they did a good job with this. if any current band can do a floyd song, its MGMT.

[FJMF92]

Good cover, isn't better but is a good job and tribute to Pink Floyd!

[stophiemeister]

I don't like the vocals, but the music is awesome!

[RHCPMGMT]

@stophiemeister Not that people aren't entitled to their own opinions, but how can you possibly not like the vocals? Not only are they amazing in this particular song, but if you listen to a lot more of their music, especially live, he's got an amazing voice and vocal range that not many singers have. Such as in Flash Delirium (look up the SNL one), at the end. And then he can go from a quiet falsetto to a really powerful style.

[stophiemeister]

@RHCPMGMT Maybe they aren't so bad, and I love lots of songs that MGMT have done, I just prefer Syd's original vocals.

[jjpme92un]

@stophiemeister you live in Melbourne, FL?

[stophiemeister]

@jjpme92un No, I live in Melbourne, Australia

[jjpme92un]

@stophiemeister oh ok, I saw some of your videos and thought you might be from here in Florida... nice Pink Floyd song you have there Cymbaline(?) - hadn't heard it before - which album is it on??

[RHCPMGMT]

@stophiemeister Yeah sorry I got a little defensive. Yes, I do love Syd's vocals, but I also feel like the way Andrew sings this is really good. If you'd like to hear more good stuff by them, I'd first recommend Siberian Breaks.

[stophiemeister]

@RHCPMGMT Don't worry, everyone's entitled to their opinions :) Thanks for the recommendation :)

[DyingPulseProduction]

didn't sound that good to me.

[valeriejeannetthe]

i remember i stayed up till midnight to watch this ! my two favorite bands together totally worth it on a school day !

[crymeariverbabe]

Oh, God, MGMT covering Pink Floyd is too many drugs for my brain.

[TheRockandroll420]

Vinyl is better

[cassyykillszombies]

Dat CD.

[polecatkarl2011]

this is absolutly brilliant , syd barrett would be pleased with this, im a massive barrett fan hes my best singer ever and watching this im just thinking what it would of been like watching him live doing this

[AntelopeButtons]

@polecatkarl2011 I'm also a Syd Barrett super-fan. I practically idolize him, hah.

[polecatkarl2011]

@AntelopeButtons same here mate, good to see theres other people who idolizes him like i do, just cant get enough of his records and hoping that one day they will find loads of unreleased recordings of him haha, that would rule

[AntelopeButtons]

Fuck MGMT, Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett is way better, man.

[jjpme92un]

@AntelopeButtons this was Pink Floyd week and they had bands doing Floyd songs since they are no longer together so this is what you get

[AntelopeButtons]

@jjpme92un I know, I watched it the series, I guess. I just don't like cover songs; especially on songs that I thoroughly enjoy.

[balletx30]

@AntelopeButtons yes pink floyd is good, BUT DNT FUCKING DISS MGMT

[sawgrass67]

@AntelopeButtons So you have actually heard Syd Barrett do this song live? Please post it, because it does not exist.

Thanks MGMT for doing a faithful version. If this was like Wish You Were Here or us / Then, I would have wanted them to deviate, but since this song is never done live, i like the straightfoward cover. GREAT JOB

[RHCPMGMT]

@AntelopeButtons I'm sure you wouldn't be saying that if you actually knew what great musicians and songwriters MGMT are. Of course we all love Pink Floyd, they're incredible, but do you see any other modern bands where every member is a multi-instrumentalist and they all play drums? The lead guitarist plays glockenspiel and sax. The drummer is a kick-ass bassist. The lead singer plays guitar, drums, bass, keyboard, harmonica, and electric sitar, and probably even more.

[fujiwarataku]

I love so much MGMT, and psychedelic Pink FLoyd, and i think this is a good cover. I want it as a b-side or something!

[070agga]

Wow, also sounds a bit like Dukes of Stratosphear!

[SoulVaX]

the floating CD was absolutely genius jjpme92un...you da man...

[pein05]

It's cool that bands are trying to keep the psychedelic spirit alive. ROCK ON!

[tmmessi]

@igmq3f32 Marfan Syndrome has varying characteristic, one of which is elongated limbs, but also, and more seriously, it affects the heart valves and aorta. Just FYI.

[SWbro94]

these guys need to be executed.

[aerlingus18]

whats the deal with the ramones guy

[jgmq3f32]

@aerlingus18

its Bradford Cox aka Atlas Sound from the band Deerhunter. he is dressed up as Joey Ramone as a gimmick i suppose. they both have Marifan syndrome which makes the limbs much longer.

[aerlingus18]

@jgmq3f32 cool thanks

[ScarberianBarbarian]

Pretty good cover

[ilovemgmt23]

i love how his voice sounds lower!!

[porridgeeveryday]

rubbish!

[xLUCYxINxTHExSKYx]

what floating cd is everyone talking about?

[jjpme92un]

@xLUCYxINxTHExSKYx it's near the end of the video - the mysterious floating cd... ;)

[meggerama16]

HAHAHAH omg, the floating CD nearly made me die! You wouldn't even believe how hard that made me laugh.. Thank you! :)

[mtsimb]

Andrew Barret.

[SomaSoundBand]

i thought it was a UFO!

[UselessInfo101]

lol man whats up with the cd?

[jjpme92un]

@UselessInfo101 got bored towards the end and just grabbed the nearest thing to move around... you can probably see me holding a pillow to block out light during the recording - there is a much better recording here on youtube... but not with a "floating"cd! ha ha ha
