I remember jogging around the track in McCarren park Brooklyn and they were playing this in the old pool live. My kid brother was inside at that show but it was great, I didn’t know who they were but could hear it and fell in love.
For those who are asking about the guitarist: that's Hank Sullivant - MGMT's touring guitarist. He's Kuroma's lead singer but takes position as guitarist during MGMT's performances every now and then
I know this comment's 4 years old, but I was just thinking how different his live performances were back in older ones like this, compared to more recentish ones. It's like he's lost his passion - at least in most of what I've watched. Some are like he just doesn't want to be there. I'd love to see him sing like this again.
For me MGMT is one of the greatest band of this time, they make awesome music, and Andrew and Ben are soo gorgeous thnks guys for brings us excelent songs with great meaning I LOVE U, come to Latinoamerica!
No kidding, that's the most beautiful thing I ever heard.. ! His voice concerns my heart. It makes me think about everything, 'bout the world, peace and love. My eyes well up with tears.
Love this performance and song...it’s so captivating because they all look so into the performance! Andrew’s voice is on point and the instruments aren’t drowning his vocals. I love this band and they will always have a special place in my heart!
this is actually one of the most GLORIOUS things i have EVER SEEN!!!!! or rather, one of the most glorious things i have ever heard ;) keep it up guys, i'll always be cheering you on
I keep finding these AMAZING clips of these guys. Where have I been , I ASSUMED they where DJ group. They will be here for the next 30 years, Look out Bono, Hutchy would be stoked
i heard "time to pretend" in the movie "21", and thought it sounded so so psychedelic in a way. then i heard a few more songs, and they are amazing. im 18 and ive always been thinking, if my children ask what music i listened to when i was young, i dont want to say that i listened to akon/50cent/lil wayne etc...these are the ones im going to say i listened to. mgmt, you rock and.. please, dont take to much drugs, cause WE want more music! :D
ohh, how i miss 2008, saw them at reading festival and met andrew and ben at the academy in birmingham in march just after this was filmed. fantastic year for music.
i love Andrew. not because he's hot, cute, handsome etc. whatever, i don't care. but his lyrics... are just beyond everything else in the world. Andrew, thank you for existing! ♥

From 2007 to 2010 they really were the biggest band on earth. They seemed unstoppable for a while.
I love the live singing. Such a nostalgic song.
Can’t believe this is 10 years ago, saw them a couple of months ago and they still sound amazing

I kinda miss when the group had this vibe, LDA songs sound pretty weak live

Idunno what the lyrics mean, but they always make sense to my dreamy, subconscious self =)
the song is about war
It’s about a war in Germany
I've seriously watched this about 50 times in the past 3 days I have a problem
And I'm here to remind you this exists
Love this version. That anti-solo at the end is so much better on guitar.
SirSalmonator Out of interest, what makes it an anti-solo? Is that because it follows the vocal melody exactly? Thanks.
urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=anti-solo
I'm too lazy to read through that but I think I misused the term.
usually their songs doesnt translate that well live, but this is brilliant!
I would literally die to have Andrew as my best friend. Such a cool dude. :D
This song saved my life
I love MGMT. Their music just makes me happy all around. And Andrew hair is amaazinggggg.... :D His voice fits this song perfectly. long live MGMT(:

Sun Jing same
I actually felt old when i was 14, but the older i get now the younger i feel
Los amo :c.
the neil young influence in this song is undeniable
wow . wat a song
When the world has turned
Paralyzed and wrong
Cold blooded claws
Never offered anything at all
Past the point of love
Shattered and untied
Waiting to pick up the pieces
That make it all alright
But pieces of what
Pieces of what
Pieces of what
Doesn't matter any more
Moonlight on my floor
Shining through the roof
They got the city surrounded
As if I needed proof
I forgot my fear
Feelings on the rise
Burying all of the pieces
Falling from the sky
But pieces of what
Pieces of what
Pieces of what
We used to call home
Pieces of what
We used to call home
When I drank your tea
And shallow water still
At the belgian gates
I waited for my meal
Judin Kinds Last verse should read "Lay your dragons teeth and shallow waters steel. they were defence structures use in ww2.
Nothing to do with drinking tea.
awesome!
AMAZING! :)
MGMT FOREVER!
