i suppose not everyone is going to have good music taste.. alot of people arent intelligent enough to like real music, they just listen to whatever everyone else listens too.
i agree...this live version is so much better compared to others...maybe andrew is afraid to fail some notes...he needs more confidence because he has this uniqueee amazing voice and he's afraid of using it :s
I remember watching this video 2 summers ago (summer of 2010) as I was just beginning to discover how amazing MGMT is. Who knew a summer after that (summer of 2011) I would be singing along with them to this song as they performed live right in front of my very own eyes.
This just proves that American Idol and America's got Talent is all bullshit.
They would have ever accepted this audition. They look for somone that can sing like all the shitty hip hop singers out there right now. MGMT would kick there asses anyday. Plus, MGMT's fans arent all a bunch of faggots. That felt good(:
Ils sont aussi bien en live qu'en cd, pas comme les pop star à la con qu'on a sur nrj ou autre! J'aime bien comment Andrew ferme les yeux en chantant, ça invite à faire de même...
@lytchye8 Ah, enfin un camarade consommateur de baguette ! Tu les as déjà vus en concert ou tu te bases sur des vidéos pour dire qu'ils sont bien en live ? J'aimerais l'avis de quelqu'un qui les a vus ... Je ne suis jamais allée à un de leurs concerts, mais j'en rêve, justement pour pouvoir apprécier leur musique de la même façon qu'Andrew, en fermant les yeux. Je sais que des frissons me parcourraient constamment.
@BadMotherfckr techniquement moi c'est mangeuse de frite ^^ Je les malheureusement jamais vu mais j'attend impatiemment qu'ils passent dans le coin! Je te jure que ce jour-là, je serais bien plus qu'heureuse!
@lytchye8 Mangeuse de frites, au temps pour moi (; T'inquiètes, moi c'est la même, je suis aussi impatiente que toi. Je serais prête à aller à Paris s'il le faut (sachant que j'habite à Toulouse ..), rater deux jours de cours, peu importe, je DOIS les voir !
@pennfarms people don't like bands to be mainstream bc then they get played out on the radio and it just becomes obnoxious.... I don't think these guys really have the desire to be famous - just make good music and become discovered by the people that have great taste! Let's face-- it the average joe would never apperciate the depth and amazing music of what MGMT has to offer just the true unique listeners!
Okay, who're the 82 idiots who rated up on that guys stupid ass comment? I'm rather happy when bands I love actually manage to become mainstream. Not only does it mean that they're getting the the success I personally believe they deserve, but if more great bands like MGMT become mainstream maybe we can stop having to listen to freaking Lil Wayne and Katy Perry everywhere we go.
@insert1wittynamehere Or you could move to Northern Europe they have Kick ass music everywhere better chance of hearing this or Peter Bjorn and John then Katy Perry and Lady Ga Ga
@insert1wittynamehere I agree partially. It CAN be a good thing. But in some cases, bands/artist do make drastic changes after becoming mainstream. Often times, New fans=new demands, and any artist who is all about pleasing the fans wont hesitate to "give them what they want", neglecting the old and few for the sake of the many new...has happened to alot of my fave music makers. The fact I have accepted is this: Mainstream music sucks because people just have no taste. Will never change. Period.
@insert1wittynamehere Haha.. actually, "Mainstream" is more of a genre than anything else.. I mean, a band can be very popular and still not be "mainstream", right? When I hear the word "mainstream" I instantly think "generic crap" which i dont think MGMT will ever be, no matter how popular they become.
@younglegend4life I wouldn't call mainstream a genre. It's easy to associate the term "mainstream" with music that doesn't require a lot of time and skill to make, because that's what most mainstream music is these days. But when something becomes mainstream it pretty much just means it's really rare for someone to not know about. Like, Justin Beiber. (Sorry for the overused example.) If someone told you they didn't know who he was, that would be really out of the ordinary.
I saw a video of their early days and found it interesting that he introduced the band as "The Management". Never knew, I just called them M G M T ...lol Does anyone know if they still go by that or did they change it once they made it big?
@I000II0I0I back in 2005, they were "The Management", but then they found out it was already being used by some other band. Then they changed to MGMT.
who gives a fuck if a band is or isn't mainstream? god trends piss me off...why can't people just like whatever the hell they want...oh wait they can i'm doing that right now!
Like Nirvana but a little more upbeat. I recently got my young ignorant ass into the Beatles and thee dudes are so much lik ethem it isn't even funny. I'm amazed that they're not taking over the airwaves. Maybe if the world was fair and just right?
thank you andrew, for not washing your hair before coming on stage. because you teach us that it is okay to do what you feel, and not fall into a pit of conformity. also. the music's great. keep up the superb-ness guys. mgmt forever!
@pyleofawsome Yess, you should be the way you wanna be and not care about the other's opinion... wanting to be unique is the first step of becoming somebody who you are NOT.
@111music4live By the way, I am a girl ;) Yeah, sure, even if we don't want MGMT to be mainstream this could happen. But the world is full of... let's say 'evil' or stupid people who just don't get this wonderful kind of music. :) Damn, I think people who listen to MGMT are all good people. ;)
@111music4life I absolutely agree with you. :) But I wouldn't want everybody to listen to MGMT because it would become mainstram and commercial. MGMT is something very special for very special people. <3
@111music4life yes.... when i listen to mgmt its like the world is like heaven ........ and just listening to andrew sing you can tell it comes from the heart.....
