If u aren't a musician u may miss some of what makes this song so incredible. The constant key changes are so unnoticeable, even within each "phase" of the song. The theme of the melody somehow stays intact while Andrew seemingly plays whatever chord he wants at any given moment. Then there's the lyrics.. I hold this recording up as high as "Don't Talk, Put Your Head On My Shoulder" from Pet Sounds
Andrew gives me a hecca strong sense of comfort and chill. like you have your freind over and you guys chill out and watch movies together with beer. and what hes wearing pushes that even further. AND SIBERIAN BREAKS IS ALSO COMFORTING. MGMT feels like home
Idk everyone I know knows electric feel, time to pretend, and kids. They are pretty well-known among the younger generation. However, this song is extremely underrated. A masterpiece
I'm obsessed with this performance. There is just something about it... it captivates you. I've never had a performance do that before. These guys really are geniuses. Damn...
such a masterpiece.. and to do it live like this! i'll never get over this song. it does not get enough recognition. mgmt never got enough recognition for being such incredible songwriters
This is such an awesome song. It reminds me of The Beatles' several songs in one phase - Day in the Life, You Never Give Me Your Money, Walrus. This just keeps changing and going off in different directions. Wow!
I couldn't agree on this any more! You're right, they do capture the essence what The Beatles had, and that is what makes them so different and alive! Phenomenal indeed
this song is just fucking legendary....... so ahead of it's time.. 6:54 this verse really fucking hits close to home..... my open arms can feel so cold.......
I agree that it's legendary but it's not ahead of its time. Psychedelic prog-pop was ahead of it's time in the 60s and 70s, sure, but in the 2010s, it's very retro.
@@M2Mil7er yeah can't really argue. not sure why i said it that way but none the less this song is a gem to this day and will continue to be. shame their best work has always been looked over by the masses.

Yeah i have!! phenomenal!! I found this song change my life though, I had a dmt trip for the duration of this song, it was a hard trip for the first half then around the 6 minute mark of this song everything was turned around and still to this day that same part of the song drives me to tears and makes me realise how far I've come since then. For that reason it'll always be my favourite song!! :')
@@bastardonparade94 Damn that sounds cool and exactly like the experience I had with In The Flowers by Animal Collective on DMT, initially spooky and dark and then a burst in to euphoria. The moment in that track still get me like yours does to you aswell haha

This is my favorite song of all time
How could it not be?
Mine too :) even after all of this time!
no mames dónde dejas alien days?
Ben reminds me of that kid from school of rock who thinks he’s not cool because he plays keyboard but is actually really fucking dope
Одна из любимых композиций, помню когда ее услышал лет 14 назад путешествую по ночному лесу на велосипеде! Это что то!!!
As a musician, this song has inspired me more than anything else
Still the best version of this song I've ever heard.
I'd rather die before I get sold. Tells you everything about this band. No pretense here. Much love and respect.
One of the best songs ever written

Shut up bro

To this day it boggles my mind that a band whose singles were ever in the top 40 charts ever wrote a song like this.
Lotan mad depth! I’m so stoked to see what Little Dark Age brings
@@joshuagoulding6601 brought disappointment and hopelessness
Joshua Goulding nah little dark age was perfect as fuckk
Idk everyone I know knows electric feel, time to pretend, and kids. They are pretty well-known among the younger generation. However, this song is extremely underrated. A masterpiece
@@joshuagoulding6601 sometimes light seeps through
When I die, my people will play all 13 minutes of this beautiful tune to send my soul off into the everlasting.
LETS GOOOOOOOO

When You Die…
Yo estare en ese lugar solo dime
I'm obsessed with this performance. There is just something about it... it captivates you. I've never had a performance do that before. These guys really are geniuses. Damn...
so well written, so well played. genius
These lyrics, the melody, sound production is pure magic
Andrew killing it on guitar at the end
God.... Andrew sounds soooo good live! i hope one day I can experience this first person. You gotta love Andrew!
The last minute of this when andrew pulls out the electric is so damn wavy
It’s like he is making love with the guitar… really beautiful to listen really hot to watch 😊
@@kiara1813 what the hell
@@rotor7135 eh if you can’t see that …
And comes back to cover me with a blanket
Being here's always changing tunes
I wish the Twangy surfer guitar at the end was on the album version.
So good
the opening bass literally KILLS me it’s so good
This is me but the song at 6:00
Dear God, I love you reader lost in the voyage of time. seek peace and return
Being human sucks and I'm sad all the time but then I listen to this and I feel better. Feel my soul again/
I know exactly how you feel
The problem isnt being human, its being forced to live in a central banking wage slave matrix full of vanity, materialism, and greed.
@@whiteyfisk9769how can I get out of that system without killing myself? 😢
The last couple of minutes are absolutely climactic. And their best live performance ever except for the Moons, Birds and Monsters in KCRW.
This so friggin good. They have super powers because MGMT always delivers.
such a masterpiece.. and to do it live like this! i'll never get over this song. it does not get enough recognition. mgmt never got enough recognition for being such incredible songwriters
stay far gone for all eternity part is beautiful
Saw them live back in 2010 so refreshing
Hard to believe this was 14 years ago MGMT is a great band
So this was actually played live on radio... imagine that very moment lol
So glad I got to see these guys live. They’re an incredible band/group of songwriters.
I do enjoy this song while driving, and I even listen to it several times in a row ! Got their 4 albums...Great band for sure !
If only the album version had that dreamy guitar playing at the end too.....still a fucking blinder performance.
Wide open arms can feel so cold!
Shout out to the guy in the back playing multiple instruments
So touching! Saw them live back in 2010 at palm beach sun fest. Their music speaks
So lucky! Seems like they lost the energy with their last album
Crazy how good this sounds
That guitar solo at the end needs to be on the studio version:) I love it
This is such an awesome song. It reminds me of The Beatles' several songs in one phase - Day in the Life, You Never Give Me Your Money, Walrus. This just keeps changing and going off in different directions. Wow!
Sometimes it sounds like John Lennon or the Mamas & the Papas too
I couldn't agree on this any more! You're right, they do capture the essence what The Beatles had, and that is what makes them so different and alive! Phenomenal indeed

My favorite mgmt song
Even if it's real , rolling away missing a spoke , close to the ground like A wheel , but it's not a joke..
This song is so good that I used to run to this song and I still love it like I always did.
My favorite mgmt song, this melody..
.i d like to be a musician when i listen it!
I’ve been a huge fan of this song and metanoia for awhile. Glad to see they can recreate it live
Looks like this live was recorded in the eighties...
Imagine writing that song.
I love this song too much 💕
Reminds me of the old Yes and Genesis songs of the 70s!
Любимая группа, любимый альбом и любимая песня
this is reminiscent to the likes of Bohemian Rhapsody or Paranoid Android
И ещё она напоминает о некогда сосуществовавшей моей родине, в которой я родился, о СССР
-Lyrics-
Sleep as the goer
The bridge that watches the light speed through
And cries while the spirit stumbles
The inside missile for the protection of you
Maybe it's silent
The voice can't bear anymore strain
But speaks without even knowing
And streams outside in the direction of truth
There's no reason there's no secrets to decode
If you can't save it, leave it dying on the road
Wide open arms can feel so cold
So cold
Feel so cold
Balance the books, the ledges, the loons
The disappointed look on the faces
That squint at the moon
Let's see it with shadows enhanced
And then vote to decide who'll advance
Silver jet plane, making a turn
Exciting the brain that expects it to crash and then burn
It's not the life lesson I'd've guessed
If you're conscious you must be depressed
Or at least cynical
But someone might still eat the steaks
Even if they're tough
Spending the day
Chewing the fat
Floating away isn't rough but it's not enough
Oh Marianne, pass me the j0int
The sandpaper's tan
Go-getters are surfing the point
And London's a scratch on the lens
It's over before it begins
Silk 'round her neck falls down to her shoulders
The older I get, the more I suspect there's a trick
But really there's no trip at all
That doesn't result in a fall
Or a faltering
But something could spit out the bait
Even if it's real
Rolling away
Missing a spoke
Close to the ground like a wheel but it's not a joke
Holding the line
Clutching the phone
Nobly wasting the night, but it isn't right
It's not right
Smelling for blood
Praying for rain
Running away isn't rough, but it's not enough
The low tide is telling me, when it's over,
To breathe in everything exposed
And comes back to cover me with a blanket
Being here's always changing tunes
The empty sky surrounds me but I can't see at all
Wide open arms can feel so cold
And you can sit beside me and tell me what it's
Worth
But I hope I die before I get sold
I hope I die before I get sold
I'd rather die before I get sold
If you find the soul that you lost
Frozen in a starry void
Take it within and hope the sight of blood
Can will signs of life to return
Back to the way that it was
Long before it made a noise
To keep on quietly reminding you
What's never created or destroyed
Wake as the swell peaks
The close-outs drowning the birds with roars
And howls scare the new unkindness
That picks and laughs at the carrion scene
Forces you see breath can always go into hiding
And wait 'til it passes over
Or stay far gone for all eternity
••
Unreal lyrics
Stunning Tune
I'd rather die before i get sold.
souvenirs de ouf...j'en pleure
this is so beautiful
One of my favorite songs that I'm dedicating my favorite Rose❤️
That was awesome..
Esta canción apenas es para escucharla estando Pacheco, grandes MGMT. Saludos desde Colombia.
Amazing
Gracias Jonatan por enseñarme esta canción. Tal vez pienses que lo olvidé pero nunca lo haré.
Beautiful voice ;)
Ben is so awesome and sweet.

The part in the minute 5:00 feels so dark on lsd it might be cause I can identify myself with the lyrics

The song have notes very difficult to hit, thats why. In the studio you can mix and "hide" this
