MGMT - Pieces of What

[BrittonDeJong]

good memories of times with my friend, bought an mgmt cd and chilled out to this

[Musicfreaklolduh]

Reminds me of Arcade Fire- the suburbs just the overall feeling of the song

[Twistaru]

llamas llamas llamas, look out for the llamas!

[TheMythirdhouse]

Why is how t be a hipster in the suggestions? Anyways love MGMT.

[n3nshat11]

this is my favorite song from mgmt. has a lot of meaning and about changing the world for the better.

[OldManRiver1776]

justbeautiful

[FrcoTube]

fuck, why i cant get the same sound with my acoustic guitar :(

[OldManRiver1776]

@FrcoTube try a Vintage-EQ with a High pass Filter!!!

[FlatGroundBeef]

In the first verse, it's "that make it out all right", not "that make it all right". It's "feel it's on the rise" not "feelings on the rise" in the second verse. In the last verse, it's "lay my dragon's teeth", not "when I drank your tea". I really doesn't matter much, it all sounds the same. Yeah, I think you got the lyrics from that one bullshit lyric website. Anyway, thanks for the song.

[oldschoolsuit]

Last Verse "Lay my Dragon's Teeth" and shallow water steel.

"German invasion of Begium on the 28th of May, 1940. Germans have the city surrounded; the Dragon's Teeth were what they called the anti-tank blockades used to slow the progression of German tanks on the Siegfried Line (a battle front between Belgium and Germany). Belgian Gates were what they named the large steel frameworks that were built to block the progression of the enemy as well." Basically pondering the insanity of war.

[louiseleon07]

Topstick Bring me here

[051500]

It definitly sounds alot like Eric Burden style music from the Animals........not a bad thing!

[JFguitar22]

@051500 i.m totally agree with you man i'm a rock'n'roll music lover and fanatic and i have to say it sound a lot in the style of Eric Burden and animals !!

[trun0jay]

Anyone get a Vietnam vibe from this song? It feels like pure Americana

[aba2185]

@trun0jay yeah kinda like hippy era

[vanderee321]

beautiful

[zxcasd2020]

thumbs up for topsticks

[packdude182]

this is easily my favorite song on the album, of moons, birds, and monsters is close too

[JasperdeRijk1]

The images used are from the documentary/film "About a Son" about the life of Kurt Cobain

[213762213762]

Reminded me of Black Francis from the pixies

[kosma1988]

Pretty similar to T. Rex :)

[TheThechewbacas]

I love andrew vanwyngarden...why he don't fuck me?

[Kodabearryan]

@TheThechewbacas

[TheThechewbacas]

@Kodabearryan WTF are you say me?

[TheoMackenzi]

@Kodabearryan It's actually funny because your sentence is also quite illiterate

[Catalooch13]

[tiesje93]

andrew vanwyngarden = mick jagger evo.

[RuthlessGFX]

:) There my stress reliever....

[KillerRobotZombie]

DRUGS ARE FREEDOOOOM no seriously there's nothing wrong with drugs :(

[TheHippie003]

Sounds like a flashback from the 60's and 70's.

[smorg12]

Wheres the rest of the song? the end is cut off..

[MyKumquats]

this song is fucking amazing and so is MGMT so who fucking cares if they do drugs? just close your eyes and let the song take you away.

[rydowg]

"lay my dragons teeth

in shallow water steel

at the belgian gates

i waited for my meal"

dragons teeth are structures placed in water to stop enemy tanks from coming ashore. thought i should point that out, the tea lyrics dont make sense.

[themcclenahans]

this song is a like a punch in the heart to me.

[MEAGANsullyIScool]

Holy Shit! Could they sound anymore like The Rolling Stones? He sings exactly like Mick on this track.

[eyvandeth]

Perfect.

[eyvandeth]

Pefect.

[AzariaViviana]

this was an earwig for hours when i was in hospital because of an overdose.

sorry but i had to finally say this...

[iluvmj98]

i sware this is the best song in the world.

[korvmebro]

Please listen to my 8-bit Version of this song /watch?v=rjNQDBo3uj8

[CheylovesMarijuana]

all time fav MGMT song<3

[PersonallyPro]

such a good song, depressing though. shit makes you think. hard to pick up the pieces when they're lost or gone.

[MrMistermoges]

i'm black, and my cock is not big, so there goes that fuckin stereotype. what do you guys think, really? i want to know about your feelings on this subject.

[Lastman0nEarth]

@MrMistermoges More testosterone = more chance of large manhood. Blacks average higher levels of testosterone than humans evolved in other regions. It's a stereotype because it has some factual basis.

[MrMistermoges]

i got no testes

[laurenolivia25]

Really great song, i <3 MGMT

[SkimboarderKris]

Is this Mick Jagger singing?

Sounds just like him, I swear.

[Bohumill2]

@SkimboarderKris Do you ever listen to Jaggers voice?

[devanicole97]

@SkimboarderKris i know it's not jagger ahha but it DOES sound a lot like it could be the rolling stones. ;)

[jackwhitescousin]

@devanicole97 Yeah I agree, there's totally a stones feel

[Rico11756]

@ricoMGMT first name

[loonnnggggfilms]

@ricoMGMT Define NORMAL please, because im pretty sure being hungry and happy is fucking normal

[Rico11756]

@ricoMGMT some people aren't right normal so we turn to natural remedies instead of drugs like prozac

[Rico11756]

@ricoMGMT how ?

[jakac1892]

@ricoMGMT fuck you :)

[mooch37]

@ricoMGMT Troll Alert!!!

[Rico11756]

@ricoMGMT why?

[meadowfrance]

Pure magic, MGMT.

[ShYlAdUmAiS]

i looove this song soo much... found it a few years back & still is my favorite <3

[MrTanmantanman]

No need to advocate or disavow drugs. You can certainly get high on life. But they have always worked for me.

[RonnieLola]

I actually thought that the MGMT fanbase would be the most peaceful. Come on, this music is too chill~

[cardinalcool]

@RonnieLola This is what I think, its like fighting on Led Zep songs or Beatles songs... Theses fights won't give anything to anyone. :)

[helloTubesJenkees]

@greenslime300: don't dis this beatles man!

and to everyone else fighting and such, can't we all just be friends and chill and enjoy the band?

[jaholt18]

surprised no one has made a rolling stones comparison here. for me its clear

[Greenslime300]

The Beatles were crackheads and look where they got. I don't like druggies... but I find the music tolerable so I'll listen to it. Crackheads doing rap = unacceptable.

[xRA1D32x]

@Greenslime300 The beatles weren't crackheads you ignorant fuck.

[coqui410]

i love the beatles but they were druggies for a while. didn't stop em from making great music.

[xRA1D32x]

@coqui410 They did a shit ton of acid, but putting psychedelics in the same category as crack cocaine is completely and utterly retarded. Neither The Beatles nor MGMT are crackheads.

[Soccer47886]

@coqui410 i god damn hate people like you

[jamievandenh]

@Greenslime300 haha fuckin troll

[tokikokoable]

this is the bright side of drugs

[Mgmt2011]

amazing



[ledzeppize]

Beautiful song, i love to play it for my girl :)

[ArFeeDee]

Good for bashing out on the guitar. :)

[bobcatmonster]

The mixing of the song reminds me of Jimi Hendrix's - The Wind Cries Mary.

[random514]

WOODSTOCK :)

[Italynine2]

this remind me victoria- kinks

[facelessxxxx]

you got the lyrics wrong.

I forgot my fear, i feel its on the rise

buried by all of the pieces falling from the sky

and

lay my dragon's teeth at shallow water still

at the belgian gates, i waited for my meal

[okaylizzie]

lol i love youtube fights

[katielinduh]

i love this song. And that is all that matters!

[Coolguy906]

Reminds me of the pumpkins

[TNTIV]

his voice sounds so awkward in this.

[Sydwayman]

Sounds like early Bowie

[letshitbitch]

@iloveAndrewwv Goddess? a female deity? i didnt know Andrew was a babe... interesting...

[quicksaund]

Love the bassline in this so much.

[disisjeremy]

im fucking sick of everyone coming on here and bitching about people doing drugs or not doing drugs? shut the fuck up... enjoy the song.. MGMT obviously does drugs... a LOT of drugs, but who cares? just listen to the damn music, there about piece man, so no need to argue, just sit back, close your eyes, and fucking listen

[Penpianoman]

@disisjeremy Word Bro.

[disisjeremy]

@Penpianoman im glad atleast someone agrees hahaha personally, i do alot of drugs, but im not coming on here and bitching at people who dont? its not about that haha its about he music!

[Penpianoman]

@disisjeremy Of course! I do drugs too. Almost every muscian does ;P.

[DCpuz]

@disisjeremy

[raajue3]

@disisjeremy it's 'peace', or was that 'pun intended'...

[tallyhoman911]

@disisjeremy drugs = good music

[nonblondecastaway]

[creekerwalker]

[Fenderguitarist17]

[MrJackanese]

[zacbickel]

@disisjeremy thats what im talking about man you know whats up

[frizzance]

@disisjeremy you spelled peace wrong... are you on drugs?

[wapitiie]

@disisjeremy they don't even do that much drugs . it's just the way they act that is fooling dump people

[CurtisIJM]

@wapitiie dump people?

[19941023diesel]

Pieces of What??? Pieces from Kurt Cobain "About a Son"... Great song and film.

[kristy72]

@19941023diesel you are right! I was watching this and thinking, "Wait... is that my hometown??" Haha so weird. Love that film and it's awesome that this is the first video that comes up when searching for this song.

[19941023diesel]

@kristy72 Haha, yea it is pretty awesome that it is the first video to come up when searching for this song and what kurt talks about in the movie reminds me ofmy life and my childhood and my old neighborhood. I am now watching the About a Son movie and the images itself gives you this warm sensation and then to add this amazing song is just absolutly amazing.

[broddegotshrooms]

i wish this song never ended

[TeacupsFromSpace]

my favourite mgmt song, a masterpiece

[nboswell39]

Herbs are NOT drugs. ^^

[23moonboy23]

Never thought I'd say this, but thank God the cops found their cultivation, without them this song would have never been created.

[RingoWinfrey]

This makes me feel nostalgic, even though I'm not sure what of. Great song

[wapitiie]

this is such a beautiful song.its no wonder that they dedicated that song to alabama

[RubyTwiggy]

im seriously in love with MGMT. just started listening to them, they are definitely on my top 10 list

[Frozen2ful]

Lean back and puff slow :)

[ThePinkguns]

@Frozen2ful Lean back and shut up

[NuclearPaper]

@ThePinkguns lean back and be tolerant.

[Frankruru]

@Frozen2ful

yeah man mgmt is the shit! i love their psychedelic music. it speaks to me. peace!

[LovePeaceLennon22]

@buckeyefantim yes i know probably all of my favourite musicians were on drugs when they made probaby my favourite songs. That being said im not hating drugs half the people i hang out with have tryed some form of drugs and some of the still do drugs. I believe that it probably does make the music that much more better but what im saying is that if you dont like the music unless you are high then you are not a true fan

[uutuube29]

the like bar looks like a joint

[wartree]

this song is about when dea surrounded their canabis cultivation in arizona

[king274399]

0:19.........................S­HROOM!!!!!

[xHARD2EXPLAINx]

So sexy...

[ohmydaniqueh]

First time at the begin: don't like.

First time at the end: hm. interesting. play again.

Second time: begin to like it...

Third time: awesome.

[LovePeaceLennon22]

@lordofthegarlic umm first i have to ask do people like you make their username something like that because you think it is humorous or something when other people type it and im not judging im just saying if you need narcotics to enjoy music then you are not a true fan im not judging anyone who does it your actions are your own

[stayhigh775]

this reminds me of the rolling stones :)

[LovePeaceLennon22]

how come every mgmt song has comments of people saying "dude when you are high this all makes sense their is a secret message you have to be high to appreciate this song" well no not really i am not high and i love this song it blows my mind without drugs and i do truly appreciate the song and i dont need drugs to like it so who is the real and tru music fan?

[lordofthegarlic]

@LovePeaceLennon22 to each his own. dont judge

[buckeyefantim]

@LovePeaceLennon22 You don't need drugs to enjoy music. That being said, marijuana will enhance any musical experience. Don't be a hater, most of your favorite musicians were on drugs when they made such beautiful art.

[IgnitionZdP]

"at the belgian gates" are they talking about Amsterdam and mushrooms?
