From the Gong album 2032 - gong2032.bandcamp.com A wonderful manga animation of Daevid Allen's drawings by ace Japanese team Mood Magic, who also made System 7's Hinotori.
@@Edduno128 Blew my mind when I found out that both bands share a common member in Kavus Torabi. Two of the most artistically pure groups I know of and they both are related? What are the chances of that? Not many musicians on par with either Gong or Cardiacs once you get into them, do you know of any other interesting groups worth checking out?
@@musicman9901 well, I’m not a musician, but I absolutely love Mike Patton and all his bands, especially Mr. Bungle! (also Faith No More, Tomahawk, Fantomas…) Ween is great, so is the Butthole Surfers (pardon my french 😅) Magma is a french band I need to listen to more… early Genesis… Gentle Giant of course. The unfinished SMiLE album by the beach boys… (a masterpiece) Major Parkinson and Moron Police are two Cardiacs-adjacent bands worth checking out… early Split Enz, XTC and Sparks… early Wall of Voodoo… Punishment of Luxury for theatrical punk (Laughing Academy is great, and they were a big inspiration for Cardiacs) Last but not least FOETUS (J G Thirlwell) some of the most insane, dark and menacing music I’ve ever heard!
As I. Zero is the Hero. Nothing is nothing. You are what you shit. Ah man..... And today, summer solstice 2020, occurs at 5 43 pm eastern standard time (America) very close to the daily telepot ohmmmmmm....;) Live on in peace, love and happiness brothers and sisters! Love you, mean it!
Have a cup of tea have another one Have a cup of tea!... Ningún grupo como Gong, son mis favoritos de siempre, este vídeo me hubiera encantado verlo en 1977 cuandolos descubrí, ahora siguen tan fantásticos como siempre..gracias gente de Gong! Love you all!... I am, you are, we are crazy!!..
Opposite way round for me! I found Gong through CZcams suggestions, and introduced my dad to them! He was like "How did I miss out on this"... that said, he introduced me to Pink Floyd, and from there I found Soft Machine then Gong, so it's thanks to him I did discover them!
The Daevid is dead, long live The Alien Australien, Dingo Virgin, Bert Camembert, Captain Capricorn. Christopher Longcock, Mimi Mimolet, etc., ...Gong is his way to stay alive.
@@lightningstudios9559 ...no need to blow your cool, as these are the many aliases of Daevid Allen, the founder member of Gong, aka International Funband.
Thank you so much Daevid and Steve and the whole Gong family. It's hard to express the profound influence Gong has had on me since first hearing Angel's Egg in 1996. I think that "You" is the album that I've listened to the most in my life. And this new video adds to the long list of synchronicities that have occured since then. You are I and I am you
+maria bonet Yeah i know! My dad used to play this song when i was younger, i always thought it was weird ... but now, i appreciate it so much hahahah, didn't realise how much thought went into making song
It fills my heart with such love and happiness that Gong are back with this current line-up. And a new album too - I think I might just burst with delight :D As for the video - perfect. Just perfect.
Thank you so much Daevid and Steve and the whole Gong family. It's hard to express the wonder that Gong has brought to my life since first hearing Angel's Egg in 1996. I think that "You" is the album that I've listened to the most in my life. And this new video adds to the long list of synchronicities that have occured since then. I love you guys!!
Great stuff from the 70's,looks like each decade has its own,one of a kind,never duplicated musical geniuses.Primus in the 80's and Tool in the 90's.Got to tab more of this.
Thanks for posting this one Steve. Thanks to you and Gong for creating this masterpiece of cosmic visionary art and music for the world :)) May the Teapot tales live on...
Ha ha seen gong at there peak in a small gig in Liverpool. It was like having them in my living room also had a pocket full of ecstasy tablets and joints drinking jacks and coke .A night beyond my wildest dreams THANK YOU GONG thank you God.
Fantastic video and what a great song from GONG. The new 2032 album is superb. A welcome return from the prog rocking genius known as GONG. Daevid Allen and Steve Hillage we salute you!
All the (Gong) projects of Daevid and Gilli Smyth are so fantastic... I love many many bands, from the beat era, psychedelic period, krautrock, etc, etc... But I think I love to listen to Daevid's or Gilli's music the most.. A little smoke, a book, and off I go... Daevid and Gilli, I hope you're both happy up there on y'r new trip..... LUV you very much!
Let the song man spin it It began at the beginning Was a sweet green planet Nothing on it, nothing to it, nothing in it, Nothing to do with the planet as we know it It's a planet coming to you but you don't know if its there Maybe its here, maybe there Check it underneath the Milky Way Right beside the southern cross I don't think so! You just cant see it but it ain't going away You've gotta dance and sing and everything will Clarify, fructify, multiply, fact finding it? Will never satisfy Not the big bang, not the big bong But the planet called GONG Its a singin' and a ringin out This is where we're coming from This is where that we belong This is where it all began Hu-man They coming out of an intention Which I hesitate to mention Maybe out of space is just a parallel dimension They coming down from a planet So far, so near That's where it all began That music you hear It happened to remind me of a long long story Bout a visit from the stars, some old Babas? Professor Paradox sent the Octave Docs Those Time Doctors on space guitars Those wise avatars from a distant star They have watched us Take me to your leaders! We assume the position of possession of power We chop out the life We live by the knife Cut out the memory That everybody's family One great family of conscious humanity And the time will come When the Star Men arrive In 2032 they'll be looking at you They're coming down to Earth And it's been so long So very very long ago When play last end To come down here To show us what we need to know How to survive without killing the planet How to survive without killing the planet? (We need to know!) How to stay alive? (We need to know!) Let the song man spin it It began at the beginning Was a sweet green planet Nothing on it, nothing to it Nothing in it, Nothing to do with the planet as we know it It's a planet coming to you but you don't know if its there Maybe its here, maybe there Check it underneath the Milky Way Right beside the southern cross I don't think so! You just cant see it but it ain't going away It's a singing and a ringing out This is where we're coming from This is where that we belong This is where it all began Human.
So basically, they are telling us, mere mortals, that they know some "they" are coming back at Earth in 2032, and it's like it's just "a freaky hippy song" But it's not....😅
My mom went to India on exchange when she was a teenager in the 90s and met them there, when she returned strangely she found their vinyls in a Thrift store! India is on the other side of the world from where we live, and considering that they are from France, and the vinyls were Vintage, they had nothing to do here!! The vinyls were there ALL my life, and now that I asked my mom about Gong, I started to investigate, and it turns out that I coincidentally have the name of one of the characters, and now I'm the finding headpot pixies EVERYWHERE, in art, on records, on the internet, in books!! And not in itself those of Gong, but the design of them, Strange musicians started following me on my socials, even the clouds look like the flying teapot.
in Chinese "gong" means "method of practice", often applied to spiritual meditation practices that promise to restore the body and keep it alive forever. cool!

my dad introduced me to gong when i was 11 and ive loved them ever since, this video has always been my favourite

same! big thanks to our dads
loving Gong since '74 i wuz 14🫠havacuppatea
Love the surrealistic video.
Great track. Typically fun, typically playful, and typically non-serious while being profound.
they were deathly serious .
this song is based on a group channelling experience - shared hallucination.
I am so high
THANKS FOR BEING YOURSELF AND HONEST . YES ,WE ARE HIGH BEINGS OF LIGHT AND LOVE .EVERY CHOICE MATTERS
The Daevid is dead, long live The Alien Australien, Dingo Virgin, Bert Camembert, Captain Capricorn. Christopher Longcock, Mimi Mimolet, etc., ...Gong is his way to stay alive.
gong est mort, vive gong :)
Don't forget Dingo Foreskin!
What the hell...

NO DOUBT
ALIEN PRESENCE MAYBE
the greatest rock band ever! i've felt fortunate that they have been part of my life for the last 40 years!
I listened this song 9 years ago maybe and I think the same... It's so trippy.
Me fucking too
An absolute gem. Pothead Pixies and Teapot Taxis in mind-blowing animation! We need fantasy and we need escapism. Gong have got it right!!!
SOME REALITY CHANGERS IN THERE SOMEWHERE TOO
Yeah, I don't know how I ended up here... Quarantine day 52.
I was looking up a gong sound effect to play when my in-laws start arguing
@@geoffreyhemphill2847 Glad you found Gong.
I just love prog rock and ended up here
Gong is amazing! Hope you listen to more!
I ended up here 42 years ago... ;)
What a stunning animation ! Gong are still as brilliant and surreal as ever. Thanks for posting !
Sweet! I never get tired replaying this track and all others done by Gong.
It fills my heart with such love and happiness that Gong are back with this current line-up. And a new album too - I think I might just burst with delight :D
As for the video - perfect. Just perfect.

Awesome video!!! Gong lives on, and Daevid`s watching over us from The Other Side of The Sky" no doubt???
Such a great song, I can't wait for the CD to arrive so I can hear the full version.

Oh man this is where it all began....
Wonderful stuff.

Rock and roll radio is a dangerous thing. Gong's gonna blow the planet to the moon. Fantastic video!!!

Let the song man spin it
It began at the beginning
Was a sweet green planet
Nothing on it, nothing to it, nothing in it,
Nothing to do with the planet as we know it
It's a planet coming to you but you don't know if its there
Maybe its here, maybe there
Check it underneath the Milky Way
Right beside the southern cross
I don't think so!
You just cant see it but it ain't going away
You've gotta dance and sing and everything will
Clarify, fructify, multiply, fact finding it?
Will never satisfy
Not the big bang, not the big bong
But the planet called GONG
Its a singin' and a ringin out
This is where we're coming from
This is where that we belong
This is where it all began Hu-man
They coming out of an intention
Which I hesitate to mention
Maybe out of space is just a parallel dimension
They coming down from a planet
So far, so near
That's where it all began
That music you hear
It happened to remind me of a long long story
Bout a visit from the stars, some old Babas?
Professor Paradox sent the Octave Docs
Those Time Doctors on space guitars
Those wise avatars from a distant star
They have watched us
Take me to your leaders!
We assume the position of possession of power
We chop out the life
We live by the knife
Cut out the memory
That everybody's family
One great family of conscious humanity
And the time will come
When the Star Men arrive
In 2032 they'll be looking at you
They're coming down to Earth
And it's been so long
So very very long ago
When play last end
To come down here
To show us what we need to know
How to survive without killing the planet
How to survive without killing the planet?
(We need to know!)
How to stay alive?
(We need to know!)
Let the song man spin it
It began at the beginning
Was a sweet green planet
Nothing on it, nothing to it Nothing in it,
Nothing to do with the planet as we know it
It's a planet coming to you but you don't know if its there
Maybe its here, maybe there
Check it underneath the Milky Way
Right beside the southern cross

You just cant see it but it ain't going away
It's a singing and a ringing out
This is where we're coming from
This is where that we belong
This is where it all began

Ab Fab video for an amazing band great tripping music .Takes me right back to my youth the early to mid eighties mushy magic !

This pretty much explains everything I feel all the time
