Lyrics:
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Flower gun
Now you’re on the run Flower head
Now all your friends are dead And their ghosts
Floating around your bed Hear it said
Now all your friends are dead
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Shooting star
Crashing in your car
what went wrong
now all your friends are gone
And they scream
Screaming from beyond Hear their song
Now all your friends are gone
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down?
Will you return?
Will you come down? - Розваги
My sons are addicts, both in prison as i type this... we have a very strong musical connection, we send messages by sending youtube videos to help eachother understand our feelings ( when they aren't in jail of course)... Im emailing them these lyrics... ❤ they can't watch the video but they can know what it says. I love this and so will they. Prayers to The Great Creator Energy for their awakening and recovery.
Wish Yall a Jump of Faith, ❤️🔥🙏
Music can really make a difference. Hope they are doing better now. As an addict myself just know they love you and that you aren't abandoning them. ✌️
How are the boys and yourself doing
This album legit helped me get sober no joke. One month today!
Congrats!
Congrats 😀
Congratulations!! Stay strong and healthy!!
I might join you. I'll take help wherever I can find it.....
@@dunlaoghaire You will find the answers inside you
When humanity is gone, I hope whatever sentient species comes next finds flaming lips recordings to know we did have some good things
We'll preserve it in every way we can. I have a feeling they're alright tuning in ☺️
Art will become Artifact..
It would't if people keep staying in their own right as in that video.
And that "when" may not be far off at all at the rate things are going. Feels like we're the last dodo bird on the island.
Ditto!!
Wayne and Steve are great human beings . I was lucky enough to get to watch a sold out show at the Newport Music Hall on the stage . After the first encore I gave Steve a cigarette . He was so grateful and I told him how grateful I was . Dude gave me a bear hug . After the encore , I ran across stage to talk to Wayne who was about down the steps . He turn around and saw me and greeted me like an old friend . I was heading down to Bonnaroo in a few days and told him I would see them there . He gave me a hug and told to be safe and make sure I made it to the next show . They made me feel great during a difficult time . I already have my pre-order in for this one .
Best Band Ever
Ahhhh, man that’s great. Nice people are hard to come by these days. Let alone warm welcoming ones... These guys must be like sunlight rays.....stay the same always.....
Fuck yea Newport music hall !
That is awesome! I got the album on vinyl,band it is beautiful an great quality, and of course, the music an sound are legendary
There’s something about their music that is so beautiful and haunting. It sounds mournful but also hopeful.
That's also life in a nutshell my friend
it sounds a bit pretentious
Agreed
Early Lips showed they weren’t just playing to College Jerks! As they grew, the world they were were commentating on was the one we were heading for....... 🧐
Absolutely
This song really hit me in the feels. Made me think about my experiences with death, drugs, trying to drink myself to death just to numb my pain from losing friends in combat. I’m in a better place now thankfully
Keep climbing, brother.
You got this brother!
In the feels? lol
High on weed and high of love
Love to you brother ❤️ God Bless YOU Sweetheart
Can't wait for some warm summer evening when I can hear the Flips play this live. Oh, how I miss live shows..
I so hope they play red rocks
I hear that...sooo glad I saw em last year, when they had the CLAYPOOL LENNON DELIRIUM open up for them....2 of the best bands to see back to back...and I wouldn't say one was better than the other...although I preferred Claypool/Delirium. Probably cuz it was my first time seeing him with Sean Lennon & co. And I saw the lips many times...and nothing will top the time I saw them at a festival, play Yoshimi one AND TWO. back to back. And they covered Bohemian Rhapsody...that actually gave me goosebumps, and that was back when they still did all the confetti, confetti filled balloons, 50 people from the crowd on stage left dressed as Aliens, 50 on stage right dressed in Santa suits, all glow sticked out with those giant Gun like flashlights/spotlights...the set list was astonishing...i remember peaking during, Are you a Hypnotist just on cloud 9 squared....
That will be another place and another time..
I WANT TO SEE THEM LIVE SOOOOOOOOOOO BAD!!!!!!!!!!
This has festival at sunset written all over it.
this is the ULTIMATE quarantine album and an album of the times.. in a time when we REALLY needed music like this... I smell Grammy.
American Head is shaping up to be one of the Lip's best. So gosh danged emotional 😭
Reminds me alot of Soft Bulletin
Raoul Duke Soft Bulletin is a certainly a classic, but I feel the chord progressions and production are more interesting on American Head. More musical maturity, and Drozd has a sharper sense of the studio here.
@@siggylloyd3566 I agree. Soft Bulletin, in my opinion, lacked a little bit on the later songs. This album sounds super consistent all the way through.
Yoshimi and Bulletin both beat American Head by a good amount imo
@@lollloll3491 Yeah the two former are masterpieces so it'd be hard to top those.
I could happily listen to that last minute for another hour. So hypnotizing.
Groovy trance!.. also, love the vj loops and animations you do Micah
Orchestra transforming into guitar is up to Strawberry Fields. Though, that works better than voice to instrument or something as it's correct historically.
Absolutely beautiful mixing
that's up to you, or you could just get a life
i was thinking the same thing, i could happily watch this song performed five times over.
I've always felt that The Flaming Lips serve to make light of the darkness of our situation without altering reality. They present our bleak reality as it is but find REAL hope in it.
This album Holy shit
This new album may be their greatest ever, at least in my opinion. From a songwriting stand point it's so well done and they exceeded any expectation I had for it. Definitely have to buy a physical copy
Completely agree this album is beautiful
Vinyl sounds great by the way. It looks like it has been mastered purposely for vinyl support
@@trinakria80 how so?
Soft bulletin will never be topped in my opinion, but this album is incredible, Embryonic is another favorite of mine its weirdness fascinates me to this day, the terror also you can see where this is going..
i don't quite understand why some would click dislike for such a good music.
Trolls, just trolls
hating beauty and joy is natural when you're bitter
No taste,probably like wallpaper plastic pop drival.
This song is so good. i keep listening to it over and over again
Why? It's not that good.
I feel like Steve Drozd had a MAJOR influence on this song.. gawd please don't go anywhere, Steven. LONG LIVE THE FLIPS!
Long Live The Flaming Lips!
Unspeakably breathtaking single off of American Head.
This is the most unbelievable track off the record released yet.
I am so excited for this record!
My body is shaking how much I feel this one...
Such blessed vibrations...
THANK YOU SO MUCH F L A M I N G L I P S ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
My favorite band, you transport me to another universe when I listen to your music
and being at one of their live shows is also a delightful trip out of mind and body. true artistry!
Awesome band, also you can check radiohead and the cure
@@nieberlbenedek7248 I love radiohead
@@nancyramos3672 So it probably means that I love way that you thinkin
@@kittervision yeah, I went to a show in Mexico and it was the Best day of my lifeeeeeee
Wow these singles are great. This album is going to be a classic
Can’t agree more
I know a second Soft Bulletin is asking far too much... But may it come sweetly close.
100% agree!
"Ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space." This song makes me feel like that more than the Spiritualized album of the same name.
Sinner Train I remember that spiritualized time of my life. I had a girlfriend, who lived in OKC close to Norman and Bricktown anyways we were 10 years down the road living in Portland, Oregon. Every time I hear the announcement “ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space .” I have really crazy emotional memories that flash by so quickly and in that compressed space of time, I’m taken to Portland and live June 97’to September 98’. I was able to attend some of the raddest shows at the raddest and saddest part of my life and the day that I left was the first time I realized that, HEROIN does take the cake for the best and worst ever feeling...Ever, since then.

I guess you have a valid point and I don’t think I wanna say that particular song is the best and only song I’ve ever heard of spiritualized, but beforehand spacemen 3 was 𝕋𝕒𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕘 𝔻𝕣𝕦𝕘𝕤 𝕥𝕠 𝕄𝕒𝕜𝕖 𝕄𝕦𝕤𝕚𝕔 𝕥𝕠 𝕋𝕒𝕜𝕖 𝔻𝕣𝕦𝕘𝕤 𝕥𝕠. Also I have been to many many different spaces in many many different spaceships and I do prefer Capt. Wayne Coyne’s even though I’ve served on Capt. Jason Pierce’s. I have never teleported en masses to a flammable location. 🚀🔥👄👨🏽🎤👽🛸👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄🔥👄😂🖖🏽
Pierce and Coyne on same dark side of the Moon swinging In Astro Hammocks with glorious space dust flowing through their amps ⚡️👻
There’s a 70s radio vibe with this latest stuff. I can hear all these singles in the background of indie films, this one especially.
it is ddeeppeerr than that - an archive like quality
Something wonderful and memorable from 2020...something I will look back to and say, "yes, there was at least one good thing about that awful year"
Wayne punching the shield behind him is such powerful imagery. Flaming lips are genius
Just a gorgeous, gorgeous song. The Flaming Lips have been at it for nearly 40 years and are still delivering.
True artists.
These guys blow me away....they just do. I mean most people know them as the "she don't use jelly" band but they are so much more than that.
I don’t think I’ll ever get bored with this beautiful Lp.Everyone should buy a copy.(on vinyl.)
Flaming Lips is what light and darkness are at the same time. A pure Ying and Yang.
The Flaming Lips makes the music we all feel but other artists are too prideful to make. They are the mood we feel so often. Makes you want to hug all others who listen to this
At least there is one good thing happening in 2020. Thank you, The Flaming Lips!
This album did put an end to the national Coyne shortage...
Based on all releases every single week... this album is going to be mind melting
wow. i hadn't checked in with flaming lips in a hot minute...but been a fan since 1994 when i saw them in chicago. well good to see wayne and the boys are still up to it, beautiful art and beautiful people.
Being 61 years old I know most of my classmates and friends have passed on. I've had coronavirus and survived. Many don't. Coronavirus is fatal and you don't get better. If you're old and gray. His music gives me encouragement of a brighter future. I think he has improved his writing ability with age. He paints a picture with his lyrics. 👍🇺🇲😊
Well, I, for one, am glad you beat Covid-19. Yes, this gives me hope for a brighter future too.
Have all your symptoms resolved?
The Soft Bulltin is stil on of my all time favourite albums
That .002% death rate is sure scary. It's a flu. The actual scary thing is the forced mask mandates all across a country. Those that give up liberty for security deserve neither.
@@KonigdesUrwalds
That BF quote is becoming trite, especially when it's misapplied by some douche who thinks he has the answer and knows epidemiology.
James, your 61 but talking about most of your classmates and friends having passed away? You make it sound like you're 91. Average life expectancy for a male in America is 79. So tell yourself you got at least another 20 years just based on that alone. Good luck and God bless.
Aching for the day when I can drive to the hill near my house and listen to this whole album as I watch the sunset.
So your car is currently under repair?
Been blasting this since my co worker shared this with me to help after a horrific day of security work. Incapsulates grief in such a powerful way.
Wow. Great track. This one really works. Great mix of Wayne/Steven.
I hear this and i get the same nostalgic feeling that Smashing Pumpkins 1979 gives me. Beautiful.
absolutely breathtaking
"We Ain't What We Used To Be"...you GAWD DAMN right
Trust the Flaming Lips to make life so sweet...
Remember buying my first Flaming Lips cassette in 1990 by a fluke. "In a Priest Driven Ambulance" which quickly became my favorite... 2020 these guys still pumping out Great Music. Couldn't imagine life without their music. The Flaming Lips never disappoint. I'm so grateful to have this band in my life for over 30 years. KEEP UP THE AWESOME MUSIC. Great Album.
THE TERROR (2013) is still my favorite The Flaming Lips Album. Definitely in my top 10.
Crazy to think that the first Flaming Lips album came out in '84(it may have been in '86, I'm not certain)... They've been great so long
i know right!!! I saw them open for another band (candlebox) in 1994. and i've never stopped going to concerts and they've never stopped making original music. cool. i met wayne once he's a righteous man indeed.
So many sad/happy/peaceful vibes, I cannot wait for the full album!
Just made it here :/ this is probably my favorite song. It's so beautiful and bittersweet
Took me a few listens.But glad i kept with it.Screaming from beyond.
My first “cool music” tape had Bad Brains - I Against I on one side and the Flaming Lips - Oh My Gaaaaaaaawd on the other. It’s amazing this band is still around. They deserve it. ✌️
Oh My Gawd it's the flaming lips was amazing! "Everything's exploding" changed my life.
tripperdelaluna1 Same hear. “Love Yr Brain” was a great, early, cerebral one of their songs too. And the ending track where they sledge hammer a piano... WTF?! Mind blowing. 🤯
@@mkhud50n The whole Flaming Lips experience was mind blowing - one million billionth stands out as well - I was fortunate enough to see them live back then. I remember buying the "Hear it is" album and being so shocked by Jesus shooting heroin. I met them a few times as well - pretty cool guys.
tripperdelaluna1 Totally. I think I’ve seen them close to 10x. No two shows were alike and were all some of the best shows I’ve seen. Nobody like them then. Legit psych wizards. 🧙♂️
From your photo, I can only surmise you came by this tape well after those albums had been released. Regardless, that was quite the cool tape.
Loving EVERY TRACK i hear!!! American Head is the Lips album the world needs!!! This video is EPIC!!!!
This song is something wonderful! 💛
love these new lips songs ... they definitely returned...
Wayne's vocals sound really good one this one.
As do Steven's!
screaming from beyond.
I'm a recovering heroin addict, and, I don't know why, but this song reminds me of all the friends I've lost to the needle and the spoon. I've not been overwhelmed with emotions, devastation, wanting, and sheer sadness like I was when I first listened to this song. I love the flaming lips.
U go my friend ...New days n ways to daze... replace a little over here n a little over there... 😊
This song reminds me of how I simply just ruin things on my own and how some people important to me have left these past few years…. Lips why do
your music always make me cry😢😭
*YES!*
Beautiful.
so this opens the album! wonderful! mellow, wayne's gorgeously sweet and melting soft vocals, and that spacey grand part:
"Shooting star
Crashing in your car
what went wrong
..."
and the rest of the song is, not to sound cheesy and pretentious (but i already did with describing the song ahahah) like surrendering, or a countdown! amazing amazing instrumentation! sonic guitars, some magical strings i hear!
This is an instant classic. 3:20 is the most beautiful thing I've heard all year.
I have been a prisoner of my pain since i realized that my world was broken. Thankfully, I was raised by music lovers who introduced me to wonderful, quirky, geeky, psychadellic, and fucking pure mf bands like yours. You raised me, Wayne. Thank you for the influence, the healing, the connection to my fam from the memories i have driving in the car listening to your music or going to a few of your shows. I remember we borrowed one of our cousins dvd of lips videos and didn't give i tack accidentally. I hope we get to make some muisc someday man. I'm from Texas. Please say Hello to Miley and Steve for me. And Blue if blues there. lok
This album is what we all needed this year
Goddamn masterpiece
Seeing Steven tear up at the end and wipe his eyes
Me too man, me too
Wayne’s lookin pretty Tim Burton these days
I also would have accepted: "Wayne's lookin pretty"
This the first album I heard from them.. safe to say I'm gonna stick around..
This will helps us keep going.
You must need this as bad as me.
Just pre ordered the album.
Harmony is Key 🔑
One of the best songs written. EVER. This band is so talented, I can't stand it! ✨✨✨
OK, so I’ve now heard 5 songs off American Head and already it’s the Lips best album since Bulletin and Yoshimi. The last minute of this track is incredible.
I completely agree!!
I'm so hyped, honestly.
3:35👍❤️👌n great (unseen) Drozd
solo toward the end
Today is my sister's 18 birthday in heaven thank youu so much for this! ❤
This album is keeping me sober now 80 days ❤
Thanks Flaming Lips you've brought a lot of joy to my life with these songs. My life wouldn't be the same without you guys.
Your Music will live forever Vibration is Eternity thank you oh and also i really like the chord change from 4.19 to 4.33
pretty sure i have loved every song theyve released so far form this new album. honestly sounds like some of their best work since Yoshimi
This song is a staple for me to hear daily. ♥️🎵🤩Thanks, Flaming Lips!!!
Now more than ever, I am ready to go to the, Anwhere that the Flaming Lips want to take me.
I feel blessed with every new release! Sending my love
Definitely give this the acid seal of approval
Criminally underrated album.
My only problem with this fantastic album is that this is my favorite track on it and it's the first track. I love every song on the album, but this one is just so powerful. That wailing guitar outro is phenomenal. Great work guys!
It seems they came out of obscurity and played a joyful album; Because they Could! Whilst everyone else were in misery the Lips reminisced and allayed our fears! 😍
You guys make some truly special and beautiful music. :'3
This album is great! I love it. One of the best.
A highlight of the new songs
They have definitely become masters of the subtle, beautiful Melody. Steven is a truly underrated musician
I have seen them live 5 times and I think Yoshimi is one of the greatest pieces of musical art of the last 25 years....
BUT....they have lost me.
The last 5 years or so of their music sounded like they were lost and this new music being a somewhat return to form is just....to soft?
It's to airy.
I don't know I am rambling.
I am very glad for anyone else who finds something in their new music.
We are lucky to have them in our lives to help us thru the day.
@Ryan Smith I heard it. Its soft. No rough edges anymore. Maybe they won their battles? Maybe you cant but help repeating yourself after 30 years.
I don't know how to describe this music blend..kinda early 70's acoustic-ish meets a form of culturaled-rock. It's unique and different, usually a sign of creative talent. I applaude their unrestricted art. Like it! 🍺
That was beautiful
wow utube just sent me here (recommended) from listening to marilyn Manson's new album which is amazingly different, but now im here think i will bing listen to the flaming lips , cause this song is beautiful❤ also my 1st ever listen to this band , think i will be a fan
I love The Flaming Lips.
Thank you.
SCREAMIN FROM BEYOND !!!
Flaming Lips seem to have a never-ending supply of incredible music. One of the most creative bands of all time.
very bold statement... hmmm. they good yes.
You guys keep getting better.
Wow! I feel like this album gets better with every listen!
This song isn’t about losing your friends to death, but about losing them in this quarantine era of self-isolation. I miss my friends.
I thought it was about the dinosaurs extinction.
mrbump28 😂😂
@@mrbump28 this whole time I thought it was a recipe for potato salad...your thought makes much more sense.
Thank you for getting me through life
This songs really hits home cause most of my friends are dead, Anyways great song guys:)
Aww, I'm sorry
Amazing as always!
Steve has the most beautiful eyes. ❣️
Ok so, some 30 years back I showed up late for an underground show at an abandoned bank and dropped acid. I wound up peaking while everyone was packing up and leaving. A witchy redhead that I had a crush on looked at me like a nurse looks at a dying man and said to me "All your friends are gone." She then basically asked if I was ok (I probably should have tried to hookup, but I was high and stupid). I said I was and she quickly disappeared. Afterward I spent the next four hours (or so it seemed) driving around hopelessly lost on the streets of Detroit. The next day, after finally getting home, I woke up at 4 in the afternoon and drove to McDonald's about a mile away where my car ran out of gas in the drive-thru and I had to borrow an orange juice bottle to get enough gas to get the car out of the drive thru and across the street to the gas station to fill up.
I no longer live in Detroit. Most of those friends are around. Some not. I tried to look up that girl up once or twice on FB, but chose not to dig into it.
Wayne does an amazing job of making middle-aged angst and midlife crises cool. What if this song had been around back then?
Who else here thinks American Head is their best album? It's just so amazing, beautifully tragic.
This punches me deeply... Like it is My Generation Man...
the Flower Children ! And for some of us The Spirit of Woodstock persists...as do the Spirits of Peace and Love !
I ❤️ this!! I’ve had SO many friends die bc of hard drugs & stupid stuff, like keyboard 🎹 duster😢. I saw the Flaming Lips live in Gainesville, FL in ‘07-they did a FREE show!! & I was always broke-so I REALLY APPRECIATED it!!
All of my friends were there-even my now husband-who I hooked up with in ‘07-a few weeks after the concert. We were all tripping on really good acid that someone had there, named 2012. What an AWESOME EXPERIENCE!! I’ve LOVED the Flaming Lips 👄 ever since then. Good people to throw a free concert.💟💟💟
Iv been searching for this feeling thank you flaming lips love ❤️
