[taoinmusic]

mgmt blows

[NO1CARESWHATYOUTHINK]

@taoinmusic Perhaps to a joyless mongoloid.

Why are you even watching mgmt videos if you think they "blow"?

Are you what they call a troll?

[taoinmusic]

@NO1CARESWHATYOUTHINK a joyless mongoloid? this coming from someone who's name is NO1CARESWHATYOUTHINK haha

actually im not a troll, ive just seen this band like 3 times and they are really bad live i felt like warning others

[bomberman326]

@taoinmusic They are awesome live wtf???

[AmyGracex]

'no one really realised it looked like a.. pulsating anus, until it was too late.' LOL ah i love him, and his shoes.

[ajbatmanh1]

are they gay? serious question, i like there music and dont hate gays so dont start bashing im just wondering. the lead singer seems like he might be gay.

[HippiesLovEee]

@ajbatmanh1 Oh god, NO! :D they're not gay (i think) .. i mean, they're better not be, cause they are SUPER HOT! ;P <3

[Simonesays1011]

@HippiesLovEee Oh I know what you mean! They are the hottest little pair of besties I've ever seen

[HippiesLovEee]

@Simonesays1011  ahah, you're sssooo right! ooh, if i had a chance to be with one of them.. <3<3<3<3<3<3 :)

[Simonesays1011]

@HippiesLovEee hahahah dude, i dream about it every night XD hahah who would you choose? because i'm pretty sure that andrew is the love of my life.

[HippiesLovEee]

@Simonesays1011 hhmmm... ok, Andrew is my dream boy , but Ben is sooo cute ! i love his hair <3 xb

[grandexandi]

too hip

[cocochanell7]

why do people consider them indie if there not even with a independent label??

[macscottntosh]

@cocochanell7 Most people think indie is more of a genre.

[xxSPACEPANDAxx]

Andrew's shirt is trippy!

[TheFernandotorres17]

@xxSPACEPANDAxx its the camera man!

[HippiesLovEee]

ahaha, ben is so cute, he looks like a nerd! <3 andrew is wild, like always :)

[MoralesLiz01]

andrew is so adrorable and his shirt is very tripy

[massacre1nthese9eyes]

Andrews shirt is trippy, he probably ate too many acid cookies and its coming out his pores :3

[MegaZaza27]

@massacre1nthese9eyes lol....i was wondering was it just me that notice his shirt

[canarycoalmine]

The songs is called "Time to Pretend"!!!

How could someone think it was serious?

Kinda blows my mind.

[UFellOffTheBed]

andrew got the giggles 3:12

[FrostLagoon]

ALL HAIL THE SEX GOD!!

[MegaZaza27]

0:50 looks like someone did not get any sleep

[thisisntchristine]

thank god i wasn't the only one who thought is was an asshole in 'flash delirium'...

[xOceanEyes14]

@sunshine19974 lol calm down bro. they didn't say they weren't thankful for it, they just said that they didn't realize it would be so huge. that's not a reason to dislike them... actually, the fact that it's satire makes me like them more idk

[FeatherOfTheWindow]

what's the song at 0:55?

[MrsLovePattern]

@FeatherOfTheWindow here's the original video /watch?v=WwDo4ZELuWQ it's a song by Pulp but I don't exactly know what the title is. Sorry but I hope that helps.

[FeatherOfTheWindow]

@MrsLovePattern Thank you!

[masami963]

that interviewer sucks

[GitarrLover93]

@themaepitbull You agreed on what? sorry I am very slow

[jennYlliill]

my favorite interview ever :)

[GitarrLover93]

It's hard to understand what they saying sometimes becaus my english sucks like hell xD But MGMT is the best band I know and Andrew is so hot! :D

[GitarrLover93]

It's hard to understand what they saying sometimes becaus my english sucks like hell xD But MGMT is the best band I know and Andrew is so hot! :D

[Olebrucanism]

Andrew's so so hot.

[MrTrippable]

Dude, this band is so absolutely awesome and amazing:D And the fact that Andrew is nice to look at in interviews...it's just a bonus! :)

[Cluttr]

6 people don't have there own unique tree house

[FutureAbe]

"I hate vomit."

-Andrew Vanwyngarden

[Evettebear]

<3 i adore them. 

[sarahshiner]

What exactly Andrew say when he speaks about the David Lynch movie? He says something before that but I cant hear becasue they are both speaking in the same time.

Nice, nice interview and extra points for Andrew and his good taste in directors!

[peacelovephoebe]

@sarahshiner he was like "what's that david lynch movie i like?" and, of course, ben knows the answer

andrew has good taste in everything...their musical influences are really eclectic and amazing

[xLUCYxINxTHExSKYx]

i love that tree house bit, ugh, man of pure genious

[CBMBlog]

People That Cool Don't Belong on ABC.

[repentnow123]

[guster815]

@repentnow123 Weekend Wars

[EMGEEEMTEE]

@repentnow123 Weekend Wars

[peacelovephoebe]

@repentnow123 weekend wars.

daamn you need to do your mgmt homework that's from oracular spectacular

[OAppleoo]

well this explains a lot, sux there not druggies xp and tht there songs were satire but there still great

[peacelovephoebe]

@OAppleoo they are still druggies, even though they like to fuck with people

[goldendome10383]

This interview has the most awkward and offbeat/irregular energy of all time

[02justSAY]

Think we all don't want them to choke on their vomit.

[peacelovephoebe]

@02justSAY seriously, fingers crossed

or some other tragedy

that would be so infinitely devestating

[SkInHoUnD]

Andrew is stacked for a hippie

[groomgroom12345]

WHO'S DISAPPOINTED WHEN THEY SEE MGMT? BLASPHEMY TBH

[peacelovephoebe]

@groomgroom12345 so true

[1aanetaa]

please..can somebody write what they say at the beginning? ..I don't understand well

[MsMissSunday]

stripes t-shirt are awesome! :D

[bolengerin]

who made them cookies in the first place? Probably groupies. I want some groupies now.

[bg365247]

Cool... David Lynch reference. Thumbs up if you like Lynch and MGMT. If u do send me a friend request because you are cool in my book my friend.

[MyLifeYoursToo]

andrews shirt is soo crazy!

[magua4]

i love the tree fort metaphor, it works so well

[masterCm]

what song is that at 0:50.. lol

[shakarado]

i like "evil phantom of the opera rap"

[alexnwhales]

0:41-0:44

Look at andrew lol, hes rolling his eyes xD

[sk8erguy011]

@alexnwhales haha i wonder why hes doing that

[megan010492]

theyre so funny. and their music is beyond amazing and magical to me :) i love them.

[runtubefantasy]

I fucking knew

"a time to pretend " was sarcastic. stupid people took it seriously and saw it as deep and true. lol idiots who believe in everything

[thekalidescopeaffect]

@runtubefantasy i agree. but its how you perceive it. thats how art is

[penguinsoulja96]

@runtubefantasy really? its pretty obvious it was sarcastic. you must know some stupid people

[runtubefantasy]

@penguinsoulja96 youtube, my friend, youtube comments! it's not too obvious when some singer is sarcastic but what I meant is those that took it way too far and decided to agree with them --"yeah, deep , man , deep". "I want to shoot heroine in paris and be in the 27 club as well" etc etc etc

[penguinsoulja96]

@runtubefantasy did ppl actually think that? i understand what you mean, but i didnt know anyone who took this song seriously. wow, if thats true there are some amazingly retarded ppl out there lol

[TheMgmt420]

@runtubefantasy Mgmt has helped me threw some hard times in my life made me be a kid again and have a great time i love Mgmt their awesome and helped me threw alot 

[runtubefantasy]

@TheMgmt420 I didn't mean to bring anyone down, those that feel meaning with mgmt;s music. what I meant is the drug part. the ones that thought it cool and deep to listen to MGMT sing about drugs and that they were serious. who knows though. I have no idea about people's believes.=]

[TheMgmt420]

@runtubefantasy Oh deffinatly i know what you mean People who think their all into the drugs and that their kind of Glorifying it. This interview made me like them even more because their just there to have fun make music and make some people happy their just kids too.

[apatchofbluesky]

I like Ben a lot less after watching this.

[slye1991]

I never saw it as anus until this video thanks andrew lol

[stephanied6]

I love MGMT..they're great

[JN95]

Il est psychédélique le tee-shirt d'Andrew !

[GnarTown5]

@JN95 Oui C'est tres cool!

[jamalam17z7]

The tree fort simile makes perfect sense

[nyukkaboom2]

i wish they were more confident

[MyLifeYoursToo]

@nyukkaboom2 OH MY GOSH! FOR REAL! almost well not a lot but in a few interviews iv seen they put themselves and their music down. like when they apologizes for being a big influence with hippie headbands. im like "UM GREATEST INVENTION EVER!" it bothers me that they dont think their music is good. because its beyond good. it a masterpiece!

[carlyag11]

does anyone else think that ben's smile looks like bob saget's?

[vahallakeeeee]

0:20 ben isnt putting up with your crap anymore andrew xD

[jevdmeij]

is ben pissed around 0:20? did i misinterprete that?...

whatever. i love them!

[jevdmeij]

is ben pissed around 0:20? did i misinterprete that or what...

[vampiresd0ntsparkle]

1:21 tell me this song?

[lolypop714]

@vampiresd0ntsparkle weekend wars

[carlyag11]

@vampiresd0ntsparkle weekend wars by MGMT (:

[MyLifeYoursToo]

@vampiresd0ntsparkle Weekend Wars is the song

[akikowolf]

That's my favorite part of the song! It sounded deeper to me than the rest and it was the most relateable part for me.

[lolypop714]

"butthole"

[MulticolouredShorts]

' i hate vomit' haha he's so cute

[kagadooo]

i really think that they´re trying to be honest in what they´re doing...they LOVE music. they don´t need money or fame. i really think that congratulations is such a good album...and i like it when you can think about it, about the lyrics and have your own personal interpretation. the "duty" of music is to move peoples hearts and minds, right? and not how many people buy their records or what an old, frustrated and cynical editor thinks about it...

[ZataMachi]

Very good interview. MGMT is so unique. I've loved them since Management, and I'll love them till I die. People who don't understand that music is expressions and feeling rather then cash in the bank are morons

[cplazyrocker]

i love andrews blue slippers

[zeeoz1786]

andrew looks like a greek god, not gonna lie

[chandloski]

@zeeoz1786 He's beautifuuuuuul :)

[justbeachy26]

oh my gawd andrew has the best man legs i've ever seen

[96Musician]

I have two new live Concert videoes out where I sing =) It's from a christmas concert=)

It would mean a lot if you took the time to check them out^^

Merry Christmas <3

[melanielarson96]

one of my favorite mgmt interviews:)

[melanielarson96]

one of my favorite mgmt interviews:)

[bigballzs]

Come on guys! Work with Kevin Barnes. That would be awesome!

[monkeyface338]

i love how andrew says "mgmt is desperate " in 6:11

[mysticblue436]

Okay. So everytime Andrew wears this shirt it has this spiral psychedelic effect. It must be the camera. But I always stare at it. ALWAYS.

[boredbanana]

In the beginning when ben was getting sassy it was like me and my brothers.

God they are all so great. this is one of my favorite interviews cause they seem more real. Less sarcastic to a point.

[Retsiness]

These guys are soooooo humble for being amazing song writers. They should be multi-platnium.

[vahallakeeeee]

"Lame" ...NOT

[Cluttr]

I make snow forts but not tree forts

[PsychedelicStardust]

were they playing Razzmatazz at 0:55 ??

[1076thestuff]

best analogy ever

[Darin847]

I'm like a fucking 16 year old girl for this band..it's embarrassing -_-

[gotgame45]

they are boring. maybe that's the point.

[Brizum12]

andrew is so cute when he laughs! <3 mann he has arm muscles ;) mmm lol

[XxCuBbYkItTeNxX]

i like how during the part when they put in the flash delirium music video, ben's smile keeps like...twtching into a bigger smile.

[XxCuBbYkItTeNxX]

omg...andrews shirt is pretty trippy when the camera shakes...holy piss

[johnnythewonderfly]

I love this interviewer!

She's adorable.

[d10barella]

"no one realized that it was a pulsating anus until it was too late" - Andrew

[WhoaZebratastic]

"I did that cause i wanted more of the cookies to myself!" lol 

[iGoRaawW]

I dont kow why they put them selves down

Their music is pure, beautiful, music that opens up a soul and one's mind

They inspired me to write poetry, poetry can be turn into a song

Thank you =)

[ThePopsicleAddict]

@iGoRaawW I know! They always seem to put down their music. I loved the tree fort analogy though haha :)

[goldcharmz]

omg first video ben's talking! :D :D

[awesomesaucetastical]

1:36 owns. i think your right, andrew! <3

[escapel333]

boenisima rola! Andrew te amO!

[John7011]

Just...by far...the best band in the world.

[JJustFreedom]

James always has the coolest t-shirts by the way hahah I think this is just my day of checking tshirts

[JJustFreedom]

andrews t-shirt is sooo spacy

[Coutureprincess0303]

Lol! How about we replace the word "sarcastic" with "high" and this interview would make so much more sense! XD

[Coutureprincess0303]

lol, replace "sarcastic'", or any variations mentioned, with "high" and this interview makes so much more sense! XD

[JakeRoseify]

Aha, I just got an above the influence ad before the video.

[SingerTina]

ass in cookies.

[jrodr167]

@SingerTina acid not ass

[babeegirl002]

Andrew- "no one puts acid in cookies! but you can scare people by saying that..."

Ben- "we had a bag of regular cookies, and someone wrote 'acid cookies' on the bag."

Andrew- "i did that cause i wanted more of the cookies for myself!"

this is why they are my favorite band.

MGMT forever!<3

[thramagen]

they hate electronic indie pop!? thats funny because I do too but I also associate them with that, but I love MGMT

[daedley]

@angolarose why would any band want to be forced into a label. Forcing a band into some super specific genre is redundant. If every artist wants to be unique then just used broad terms to describe them. I would consider their new album to be more of a retro sounding psychedelic. It's their artistic vision and they can go in any direction they want. Anybody who wanted them to stay with the 'Kids' style are ignorant. They don't want it so stop criticizing them for going in their own direction.

[cloudpuma]

i think i like them just fine...pink floyd had the same effect on people back them...keep ur chin up boys..

[mtvguy92]

there not any genre if anything i just classify them as drugs and hippie music

[rejectedchik89]

I think a lot of bands are somewhat sarcastic about their music. If they had fun making it then I don't see the problem! I'm kinda glad they aren't serious about Time to Pretend, granted it is my favorite song of theirs. These guys remind me a lot of how kids in my town are. I could totally see myself chillin' with Andrew haha.

[nathanwalker462]

sorry, their alright but I'm more of a passion pit guy.

I actually feel confused by their music.

[rejectedchik89]

@nathanwalker462 It's just kinda hard to analyze sometimes

[beerwine69]

mm ghey o.O i liked the unreal one too...the new pop music they're making is not that great imo troll alert!!! idk...i think they're full of crap :O

[mtganimemiikefan]

@angolarose music without a label,people arnt comfortable unless they can stick a genre to a piece of music or a movie, anything outside of a easy definition isnt marketable.

[breakyournose]

i'm not gonna lie, i like their old stuff better.

its kinda sad that i liked an unreal mgmt.

:'(

but it is still freakne rad when i forget its not.

:)

i like a band that doesnt exsist.

: |

[tg23114]

@breakyournose BAsically im gonna have to agree with you here sir. =D
