Thanks to everyone for checking out our version of this great Flaming Lips tune. We've posted an original tune called Trees on Fire under video responses. Please check it out!
Originality? They slowed down the tempo and removed half a dozen instruments. It's okay, but it's not mindblowing. The singer sounds like he could be several thousand other random Americans.
"I think this song is super awesome, and its attitude is right on! the more you love to live, the smaller the fear gets. sorry i jumped the gun with my words, i forget how it is out here.
I know I'm 8 months late, but the reason you guys didn't get what donmandarin is because you need to expand your vocabulary. What didn't you get from his post. "musing" ? that's the only work that would pose difficulty.
@yurui0yr Me too want the mp3!

I jammed with their guitarist once. He's a cool guy.
And by the way, these guys are not emos, they couldn't be further from.

the flaming lips version is more uplifting but this version is very relaxing.

The Flaming Lips original is both more uplifting and fragile. This version sounds stoned.

i consider this one of the most relevant pieces of work on this earth. musing on the beauty is more than necessary. Wayne Coyne is a genius,
