I kinda chuckled and shrugged it off while waiting for my coffee. The corse kicked in and I couldn’t help but laugh. I noticed them dancing behind the bar (those kids have to much energy) it was hilarious. I told them they need to play this every time I walk through that door now 😂

      More data: Границы Мира music makes me think to "Třetí galaxie" by Michal David, which is an East European pop hit from the 80s and it is also a Slavic language sample from the original "Stella Stai" by Umberto Tozzi.... besides "Michal" is, as far as I know, the Czech form of "Michael" (all seems to be interconnected!!!). Границы Мира footage reminds me of the film "Valerie a týden divů" (Valerie and Her Week of Wonders). I love the art on their work

      Duel, Propaganda
      I'm Not Scared, Eighth Wonder

    [Verse 1]
    Not everyone can be like me and Michael
    The only problem is forgetting which side you're on
    So you think the burning light will reappear on summer nights
    Like all the rest, but they can't find out
    [Verse 2]
    In every scene, it's me and Michael
    Imaginary bombs raining down from the clouds
    So it seems the danger signs will never let the feelings die
    When all the best and brightest have gone
    [Chorus]
    Me and Michael
    Solid as they come
    Me and Michael
    It's not a question now
    It's me and Michael
    Solid as they come
    Me and Michael
    It's not a question now
    Me and Michael
    [Verse 3]
    Binary star sink like the setting sun
    Too happy with ourselves to notice when the change had come
    So you think the losing side would never break dividing lines
    When sanctity wasn't a thing of doubt
    [Chorus]
    Me and Michael
    Solid as they come
    Me and Michael

    I truly believe we are witnessing some of their best work yet with these last upcoming songs, they have matured enough to know how to create their perfect sound, but still sound as though they remain true to their ideals of making the music they want to hear. MGMT really is the band of our generation in my opinion in a world of sounds that seem to repeat or continue off of eachother they still seem to be able to to pull influence from different decades and regions with their own spin on it, and it results in one of the most creative bands that we are lucky to have

I had put off watching this because i was afraid putting visuals on would just further rock the emotional boat.......NOPE.

      Congrats is a natural evolution from the second half of OS and S/T is a natural evolution from Congrats.
