I showed this to my epileptic friend, and he started rocking out hard
😳🤦♂️😂😂😂🤘🤘
OMG 😅
Was more like a "Shake, Rattle and Roll"
Hey, don't laugh. He was merely expressing himself. (I hope).
Then you need to pump up the Valium
What astounds me is how we are only hearing one kick drum, a snare drum, and a ride-cymbal. Yet this some of the most fresh and original drumming I've heard in a song in maybe years.
Don't forget the hi hat ❤
Ah. I had to look it up. (I'm a mere pianist here!). Are you a drummer, by the way?
Check out my Theory of Pitch Psychology here. I uses a few Flaming Lips songs as examples for why we choose different keys for different themes.@@ManDuderGuy
The drumming is absolutely phenomenal
100% he is painfully underrated
Drozd is 80% of the band even though hes only one recovering heroin addict
Agreed. Thought it was drum programming when I first heard it!
P sure it's cut up but still awesome
there are 6 drums track in the studio version, thats why is imposible to replicate.
I didn't have an epileptic attack this good since pokemon
Close your silly eyes off! Ears are soooO underrated.Sounds& smells that’s where memories lie, I’ve noticed but who TF am I?
@@Fuzzmo147 you're having a seizure, aren't you?
Golden comment .
haha!
Most adorable comment 🤍
As a multi-instrumentalist, mainly a drummer; the drumming on this track is superb. Frantic and subtle.
Drummer is freakin amazing. He is doing so much with so little!
you nailed Stephen D
This is the best drumming I have heard in my entire life. Just amazing
Oh the drums
All I could think listening is how much this sounded like Nick Mason drumming.
I saw these guys play for free on the University of Montana campus on a beautiful day back in the '80's...where has the time gone?
Damn the drums are Amazing
Yeah, that dude's awesome! I hope he kicked the drug habit, (at least the heavy stuff)
David Morrison "Heroin.......its my LIFE........its my WIFE!" the late Jim Morrison
My brother's name is Jim Morrison, lol.
+bkleindel It was Lou Reed who sang that ; )
+soulCracka1 But that Lou Reed song was in the Doors Movie Soundtrack, so that counts for something, right?
It's just one of the most beautiful things I've heard in my life.
I completely agree.Like a gorgeous bare breasted Spanish lady laying on her back in a field of purple poppies,with giant butterflies of all colors everywhere,and a couple of cute baby goats hopping around chasing bunnies.....that beautiful.
OMG I have listened to this album since 2002 and I have never seen this video until NOW. I love this hat!!!!
My favorite Flaming Lips song. Also how my brain works.
This video is like sandpaper for the eyes and I can’t stop watching it. Hypnotized or something.
It’s like you have been tricked again?
@@theargonauts8490Yeah!! You nailed it i mean. What is this?
The drumming really made this album in my opinion!
IMO, Drozd is the savant responsible for the brilliance of the Flaming Lips.
Maestro
I agree but also don't knock Wayne. He writes the chord progressions lyrics makes the art. does extra guitar/keys when needed. And overall is a fantastic Performer. Drozd does the psych spacy stuff. And Wayne does the depressing stuff. The lips wouldn't be the lips without either.
MAESTRO C
Time stamps on the comments for this song indicate it is a timeless piece of music. It makes me smile so wide to see the even distribution from upload date to now. TY FL fans!
I saw them in NYC. And in 93 in SF. Best band ever
watching this on acid is SUCH a delicious treat
Steven..... the best drummer we'll ever see!
Am I a hypnotist? Of course I am. Isn’t everybody? We are the magicians, the mythmakers, and the dreamers of dreams!
They played this song live at the Agora Theater in Clevland OH. And it was the best thing I've ever seen in my life. You couldn't see anything but the flashing lights in front of you. The sound was great, the light show was great, and the atmosphere - *MHHHM!* Nailed it! It was the most fun I've ever had.
This song deserves more views )); ... such beautiful.
48 people can't find their retro style red & blue 3D glasses. I would have never thought to do 3D like this! Cool effect...
Wait, this video is better with retro 3d glasses?? Gotta find some.
I can't stop listening to this!
Hey, the hurt in my eye ball and the hurt in my heart, feels good. Fave song, thank you Flaming Lips
this song still has the best drumming in a long time... i literally get "hypnotized" by it...
This is my favorite tune of all time. My buddy and I recently were throwing songs together for the night that an asteroid collides with earth and this was the first song I added to the list.
Cheers!
What a voice, what a piece.
Video for this song should be renamed "Are You an Epileptic??"
😵
It's a scary thought: your identity being defined by the whims of another person. The drummer Steve Drozd carries this concept into an awesome hypnotic rhythm.
Drozd is a ridiculously talented drummer!
@@johnnyscifi Ridiculously talented beyond drums as well.
c h a o s
Don't show this video to the Democrats
For drodz the hypnotist was heroin, fantastic musician glad he’s managed to kick it.
best joint on the project imo. the drummer is insane
Doctor: Are you prone to having seizures?
Patient: I don't know
Doctor: Watch this...
Back in my undergrad I was learning a piece where the part went from Bb to C. This was the song that allowed me to internalize that, much like "Tomorrow Never Knows" did for C.
i don't have epilepsy but i'm terrified of watching this
Love this song, very intricate drums !! Steven Drozd is no fool ...
He should do some drumming with Beach House, who always rely on a drum machine. With her voice, his bests would be other-worldly . . .
had forgiven you for tricking me again
But I have been tricked again,
Into forgiving you,
What is this? Are you some kind of hypnotist?
Waving your powers around - the sun eclipse behind the cloud
I thought I recognized your face
Amongst all of those strangers,
But I am the stranger now
Amongst all of the recognized
What is this, are you some kind of hypnotist?
Waving your powers around, the sun eclipse behind the cloud
I'm not epileptic but I find this hard to watch.
Who watch....
You soon will be.
I don't have epilepsy but I might develop it watching this video.
I LOVE the drums!
their drums are amazing, makes you want to dance too
I’ve been a fan of this song for a while, and believe it or not had never listened to this song before on psychedelics, until today! Hooooly Shiiiit!! Fan tastic
I've never really listened to them before. I was on Molly and I usually like metal, progressive rock/metal, rap, djent but it hit me so hard and now I love these guys. All time greats! How did I not know this sooner? Lol
@@xxbioklismxx1850 Listen to The Soft Bulletin and Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots. Both are great quality albums!
I listen to this shit straight. Get on my level.
that sound is soooo intoxicating total eargasm
A band close to my soul
Cuando me siento mal o triste la música me hace volar a otros lados ,lejos de todo ...
If epilepsy brought on by this masterpiece kills me, it will all be worth it.
They need to put a warning on this video o.o
My eyes started watering I was like OHH 👀 😂
i didn't think they'd ever play it live. Now I've seen it 3x with hopefully a 4th tomorrow
Just saw them play the entire album two nights ago :)
Ohhhh so lucky❤
My favorite song from this record!
Prefab Sprout would never try to pull tricks like this.....
Great fucking song.
I think it's kicking in..
I'm listening the remastered version with the headphones...WOW!! What a trip...😵💫😵💫
I have epilepsy and approve this song
This I was told: "On the other side of the seizures, there is Glory."
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i luv teh fluming lerps
cool burry
Barry McGonigle a
the lyrics are unreal good as always from the FL!!
This guy gets it.
The eclipse of 2017 will always be the day I fell out of love with him. It will always be the day I began loving myself.
Dude put up a fucking warning for this shit.
haha go and clone your cold heart
First time I tripped on acid was to The Flaming Lips: Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots AND it was to the DVD that had the visuals to the music. To be young again....
I love how every one is so original they put the same comment.
Shout out all day
instant headache
At least I know I dont have epilepsy. Great song !!
I saw the Flaming Lips on the At War With The Mystics tour where, for THE W.A.N.D., Wayne was jumping around with a giant strobe light on his chest. Someone in the audience collapsed, and Wayne handled it really calmly and professionally - stopping the show, getting the lights on, clearing a space around the person so the venue's first aiders could get to them while they waited for an ambulance. The person was ultimately fine as far as I know. Wayne said "Yeah, this happens probably one show out of every ten". So, a 10% seizure rate's clearly not enough to make Wayne drop a particular prop from the set. Which kind of explains this video: Wayne sees seizures as an occupational hazard for Flaming Lips fans.
tostare Effing ridiculous that they continue to use the effing strobe! Do the FL pay for the ambulance and hospital bill? Do they refund the ticket price since the person couldn't stay for the rest of the show? Do they talk to the folks who collapse to (a) apologize and (b) learn what the impact really is? For the FL, it means they stop the show for a little while. For the person, maybe it means something much more serious.
I did think it seemed a bit irresponsible. As far as paying for things goes, we're in the UK and so the ambulance and treatment is free (well, funded by the taxpayer). I agree that it would be cool to do some follow up with them, maybe they did for all I know.
Well, maybe the FL only uses the strobe in the UK (or wherever people don't go bankrupt from paying for healthcare...e.g., not the US!). I wonder if the concert ads include a warning about the strobe? Hm.
Anyone prone to seizures should know better than to attend any rock concert. You don't need a strobe to induce a seizure, lights and sound and the packed shows can do that on their own.
If the band consistently has people faint or have a seizure after they get out the strobe, then I think they should stop using the strobe.
this video wasn't here 7 years go when I searched it lol love this one !! the beat is amazing
This song is so fucking dope, the first four bars will make you OD. Play this song twenty years from now and people will still lose their shit. I'm losing my shit right now and I've heard this song hundreds of times.
This is one of the greatest drummers alive today. No shit
capable of some prog rock mastery this is one of them
This is NOT prog. This is modern psychedelic rock, not that boring, self-referential, solipsistic style of music where the songs lasted 15 minutes....
Couldn't agree more!! What Steve Drozd can do on a 3 piece kit excels what most can do on a full piece kit 24/7/365!!!
Tripped hard on acid listening to this song
I tripped hard watching this song 😄
Steven Drozd is fantastic!!!
Def. the best thing to happen to this band...
I’m gonna keep watching this until I’m the millionth viewer. Or I spontaneously combust, whichever comes first.
Saw this performed live at the Melkweg in November 2018... it blew my mind!
Going to loop this bad boy and see how long I can watch it before seizing.
I have epilepsy but I'm not photosensitive. I kinda dig the video. Makes me wanna watch it with 3d glasses
Crazy band and a damn good song.
everything is one big vibration and yet we still try to work it out
Wow you almost got me too.. It's really seizure time, I still love The Flaming Lips, but I really do have seizures so I can't watch this again.
Scott Morgan Did you see comment from "tostare" below about the FL using a strobe light during concerts? Not cool.
Lorem Ipsum wow I just read it that's crazy man not cool
Double up that Keppra, baby.
I love the Flaming Lips, damn.
I watched this rolling once and it looked totally normal.
i am so stoned and this song is so wonderful stoned or sober so perfect
Барабанщик - просто БОГ!
Love it!!
Love this song!
the drums great!!
Great Frickin Song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Long live the flaming lips!
my god, the comments are way better than the whole thing. hahahaha
love them
I had several epileptic fits watching this, but it was worth it as this is mint.
oh my god, so wonderful
It's a toss-up between Subterranean Homesick Alien by Radiohead and this work of beauty.
This is a gift💜
It's what everyone's missing...
Love this song 🎵🎶
The idea that you would throw together a list of songs on such an occasion is almost as good as the song you chose. :-)
Sounds like something me and my buddy would do, and we wouldn't be fucking around. Asteroids and music are a serious matter.
tremendo!!!!
