They understand Floyd! I am surprised but I knew they are very talented... I am a Floyd fan of 40 years and I say they got it! Wow.

@philblah I'm glad to hear that. When I finally went out and bought a copy of Dark Side (about two years ago, also, pardon me not hearing it much earlier, I'm young), the first thing I did when I finished listening was buy the Flaming Lips version. I've been a Pink Floyd fan ever since, even coming to like the earlier stuff even more than Dark Side, and the version of the album that the Flaming Lips have done is perfect in my eyes (or, rather, ears).

@childofthesun32 why should i care whether YOU take me seriously as musician or not? oh nooo a random person on the internet doesn't take me seriously as a musician!! i guess i better just give up, huh? thats not even the point anyway

[childofthesun32]

@freddiebarry93 The fact you said you can't make a "whole new song" with a cover and still have the essential notes that make it like the original means I can't take you seriously as a musician.

[freddiebarry93]

@childofthesun32 a whole new song? nooo...they didn't make a whole new song. if they did it wouldn't be a cover...they made a shitty, dull version of the original classic. look i know they're trying to create the song in their own style, but they coulda done a much better job! this is pathetic. how do you enjoy listening to this? the guitar playing is so lousy, is the guitarist trying to sound psychedelic or something? it sounds like shit!

[freddiebarry93]

@carlerictaylorjr1 well let me explain to you since you don't understand...in the song "Breathe" by Pink Floyd it goes from E minor to A major. in this song they stay on E. and why are you telling me to listen to slipknot? i don't listen to that band, i don't them at all. explain yourself.

[childofthesun32]

This is how cover's should be done. Making a whole new song. I HATE straight covers. Sooooo Goddamn boring. And NO... Sexing up the vocal melody is not good enough.

[carlerictaylorjr1]

@freddiebarry93 They don't even go from E minor to A major?....are you serious?.....go listen to slipknot or something.

The Flaming Lips really are geinus's.

They've got such a broad understanding of music in general.

Great song.

i don't like this cover. it sounds very dull...they don't even go from E minor to A major in the verse part...this kinda sucks..i thought they were gonna actually do a cover of the song, not make a shitty version of it
