@hellogoodbyemyluv tyvm

[h3llf1re1]

[JJustFreedom]

[PuNkRoCkPRiNcEsSH]

[HHAmmatIMe]

Hah that reporter made that interview seem very awkword.

[HomeMovies420]

chillest interview ever



[gucccibabe07]

i feel like most interviews just focus on andrew

[randompeopleyay]

he is awesome :) mgmt has such awesome music i swear :)

[teamsnowboards1]

there are some crazy characters at lolla.

[TheSnowsbeauty5]

Ben is a sweetheart! LOVE YOU BEN! xox

[allTHEdreamz]

that girl's like "uuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhh, totally, uuuuuuuuhhhhhh" hahah looke like she's tired or somethin... 0_o

[redheadxx]

what an awkward interview.

[allierp]

@prammaven i'm not discrediting ben here because he's awesome but andrew put the band together, sings, plays lead guitar, and writes the lyrics so if anything he's more of the 'genius'

but the two of them honestly seem like they'd be awesome to hang out with and their sound is so original...new favorite band(:

[1forsorrow]

Oh God, that girl makes me "cringe" a lot. Wonder if she put the headband on especially.

[Krakko44]

Lol, at the start I think she was kinda disappointed Andrew wasn't there(given that she probly won't have another chance to interview them now)

[akikowolf]

I loved the music in the background. Reminds me of being at the Irish Fair with the live music. I love live music so much.

[nookie1916]

shes totally nervous. but give some love for DR. DOG playing in the background.

i love mgmt too though

[Runkerchick]

@nookie1916

i love dr.dog but i love mgmt too

[allierp]

i love andrew but it's really nice to hear ben talk. mgmt is so forward thinking i really love their stuff- so creative

[shhhazzle]

man this girl is stupiiid. who gave her an OK stamp to interview bands. Ben did a great job though, dispite her lack of questionairing skills.

[daedley]

Ben banged that chick I know it. She's really cute and I would have banged her too. Nice job Ben

[ZeNoodle]

...totally...

[smorescake]

BEN OMG.

[robinluvesmgmt]

omg i love Ben Goldwasser

[itsonlyonyxia]

chick is hot

[leahbear8323]

Was this girl some random fan who won a contest to interview him or something? Man, they seem to get stuck with some really friggen weird interviewers. Props to them for always being polite though, I think I would just get annoyed.

[mcfatty007]

Does anyone know the band he says?

It sounds like Violins... or violince?

neither of those come up with anything...

[reeses092]

Violens (:

[DodjeeBarry]

if you ever find can you tell me please m8 cherrs

[elsybello]

The name of the band is Violens

[DeSmurfen125]

Ben <33 Can't take my eyes of you!! O__o!!!!

[PhillipIsAlive]

she sucks ass, Ben is my favorite member

[MGMTfans]

Am i the only one that didnt really notice that the interview was bad? o.o

[MiooBerry]

this interviewer is terrible...

[TheGoddessDevine]

Ben is not the problem here - he's working with someone that is not as witty as he and Andrew are - all she has is close end questions - he walked away from this interview knowing it was stupid and a waste of time - Ben you were jipped

[xoNYCgirl]

yeah this is soo awkward.. is it because shes shy or he's shy or..what? haha

[kcscene0]

fuck, what an awkward interview.

[rachfatcat]

"Thanks for stopping by"

"thank you"

"yeah, totally!"

LOL

[mgmt4eva]

dont change ur careers!!! i wood so die! andrew and ben i luv u xx

[mgmt4eva]

i luv u ben! keep rocking on with andrew in 2009 and dont get too stned! haha ily xx

[psychomonkey62]

What does he say when talking about that band? "Violence" or "Violins?"

[kerrigwen]

The band is Violens, btw. Check 'em out on Myspace. I'm pretty sure there are videos up here as well, of them... at least one of them covering MGMT.

[LOKDownRocker]

hahah Dr.Dog is playing in the backround

[kerrigwen]

Happy Birthday, Ben! <3

[mgmt4eva]

when is ben's birthday? and how old is he? thanks

[kerrigwen]

Was born on December 17th, 1982 - so he recently turned 26. =)

[MosaicTelevison]

How did you find that out?

[olivia720]

Happy B day Ben.

[applesrfun]

ben seems so composed and mature... hahah i wanna see him go crazy and just relax, that's what they're there for- to have fun!

loosen up ben!

[eisenbutters]

dr. dog in the background? nice

[stupocalypse]

know which song it is?

[eisenbutters]

Dr. Dog - "Aint it Strange"

[javometal]

hey...somebody knows when is ben's birthday?

[cuculapraliine]

yes!! 17 december 1982 :)

[blatantlyambiguous]

Wow. I really hate that most of these comments sound like they're from 13 year old girls who feel the need to discuss who is "hotter". Go listen to the fucking Jonas Brothers or something.

[oliviaeltonjohn]

myeeeh, that's just 'cuz you're a dood.

hahaha jkjkjkjk

[kerrigwen]

Well, I'm not a 'dood' and I say those type of comments on nearly every damn video are fuggin annoying.

Why not have "I love Andrew" tattoed somewhere on yourself if you want everyone to know, instead of repeating it here to no one that cares?

[oliviaeltonjohn]

Hahha, I like totally love the Jonas Brothers 2, Andrew is soooooo hawt! omgzzzzzzzz

(eff off DOOD.)

[kerrigwen]

You sound really clever.

Why not have "I love the Jonas Brothers 2" tattooed as well?

[oliviaeltonjohn]

Ha ha ha. Maybe I will, I'll put them right next to each other. Good idea!

[ShannonKristen2310]

well excuse me!!! 1st of all i hate the jonas brothers! 2ndly mgmt is amazing!!!!!!! o yeah i love andrew =P

[defrufru33]

you retarded fat frereak

[thabuckmeister]

I totally agree with you. There are so many videos like this, it drives me crazy.

[defrufru33]

i agree with u accept 13teen year old girls like stuff like rianna and brittany spears they wouldt really know about theese poeple .. they would more likly talk about the jonas brothers eww

[mikelineeeeh]

@blatantlyambiguous your so right

[ciaobeautiful33]

@blatantlyambiguous amen! i mean come on guys!

[yoanityy]

@blatantlyambiguous you are soooo right !

[rozee83]

I think Ben is so much more attractive than Andrew :))))

[MademoiselleLibre]

Aww Ben is lovely!! I want to hear more from Ben!

[ShannonKristen2310]

i like them both a lot! i agree andrew does get a lot of attention but i just think its cuz ben is more shy and andrew is more outgoing. i fell in love with andrew cuz hes always soo funny during interviews thats all. he talks a lot more than ben but there is nothing wrong with that. it doesnt really mean he gets MORE attention i think ben is loved equally. I LOVE ANDREW SOOO MUCH but i must say he does sometimes need to give ben an oppurtunity to speak. iluvMGMT

my parents graduated 4m wesleyan

[defrufru33]

ohhhh jeese freak stop commenting and go die somewhere

[ShannonKristen2310]

@defrufru33 hahaha you're fucking hilarious. why don't you go die somewhere?

[nikkigeexx]

yeh i agree..ben shud get more attention..andrew gets more cos girls like him..but they're both talented..and i think ben is just as georgeous  !!!! xx

[loyda]

i agree with you!

they give more face-time to Andrew than to Ben.

i think Ben is more attractive than Andrew, but that is just my taste

[mirinda086]

I Totally agree with you!

I like more Ben, hes very attractive!

but well... that it doesnt matter, MGMT´s music are the best!

[vintageheartsxoxo]

It's only a matter of time before the Praying Mantis dance catches on. haha.

[hkuvgdfuer]

BEN IS THE MAN.

[PortugalTheAccount]

About time Ben gets some fucking respect without Andrew.

you know?

[itsvanwyngarden]

lol wot are you talking about? almost every interview, ben is the one talking. it's the best thing for the band, when andrew talks, he sounds like an idiot.

[PortugalTheAccount]

He doesn't 'sound like an idiot' lmao.

He can be a mic hog though.

I love them both equally, you know?

It's just that Drew is only 1/2 the talent behind this musical genius.

[itsvanwyngarden]

i like them both equally too, i'm just saying ben knows how to sound intelligent when he speaks, andrew doesn't seem very good at getting his words out the way he wants them too.

[ciaobeautiful33]

@PortugalTheAccount i know right? i mean, i love andrew, but i would like to hear from ben every now and then...

[fanatsy15]

@PortugalTheAccount so true. Andrew always over-talks him in interviews. ALWAYS

[sk8erguy011]

@PortugalTheAccount yes!!!!

[mushroomlint]

@PortugalTheAccount true that, totally agree

[JamesD567]

did he say Violins?
