I love MGMT, I haven't been this excited about a new act in such a long time. They are a breath of fresh air. It's Beatles meets Pink Floyd meets Radiohead.......awesome!
wow. whoever you are, these words are fucking brilliant. I've never read anyone as open-minded as you when it comes to these comments. good shit dude, i totally agree
I saw them live friday night, they're actually unbelievable live and Andrews voice is perfect. This performance doesn't sound so great because Andrews mic either isn't recorded properly on this or has been turned down too much.
You have to see them live before you say they are bad. UA-cam clips don't do any band justice. Live, their lack of polish as musicians is not as noticed. They absolutely are a great live band. The 50,000 or so in the crowd is eating them up, why? Because they are not listening through their crappy computer speakers with the volume on 3 so as not to disturb their parents in the next room.
@mistad00m i agree with playing live and ive only done it as a kid....and i think that flute player looks nervous cause the lead guitarist is knocking out a jizztastic riff and feels embarressed to play that over it haha
@gizmatron121 The drummer is Danny Carey. He isn't playing in Tool anymore. He decided to do MGMT full time after he heard electric feel. Sorry to break the bad news to ya : )
@ifyoufly where did you learn those phrases? reading yahoo band reviews - lol? there is no such thing, ask Paul McCartney if mgmt songs are "over studio'd" or "over produced"....
It's not that bad. I thought it was pretty decent. It probably felt different to the people there. I'm sure the atmosphere of the festival suited this well
@mistad00m well k i understand it and yeah flute is better but i was just saying that the synth could have done the job and the lady who was playing wouldnt have to scared to death by the crowd... and i do understand basic music knowledge i went to music school for 6 years and been playing guitar for 11 years...
Out of the few live versions of Electric Feel I've seen on youtube, it seems they almost always play it down-tempo (i.e. slower) than the studio version. Why?? This is the kind of song you'd want to play a little faster than usual live if anything.
@320bit hey that may be true about the confederate flag back in the day and maybe even now, but when most people who flail it around nowadays are mostly doing it because their great great great grandfathers or whatever fought in it. Although they fought in that war it doesn't always mean that they completely agreed with it either, even if they did agree with it you can't judge their offspring's. I'm not even white, as a matter of fact i am Colombian born in California, just stating my opinion.
2008 doesn’t seem that long ago. Until I see people holding up digital cameras instead of phones.
I love MGMT, I haven't been this excited about a new act in such a long time. They are a breath of fresh air. It's Beatles meets Pink Floyd meets Radiohead.......awesome!
in what planet is this high quality?
In 2008.
@@NESherv that guy’s from 2012. He’s closer to 2008 than you’ll ever be!!!!
That has to be the best LIVE track in a long time. They have nailed it.
MGMT , keep em comin.
i listen to their songs EVERY SINGLE DAY! i soo
I remember watching this on the BBC late at night and thinking it was the best thing I've ever heard.
THIS ONE ROCKS!
i love the flute part
@ILYLaurax i know Andrew Van Wyngarden is the rythem player but the lead guitar player is called James Richardson.
This is my favorite song for a long time. This live performance is so good, because it is so BAD :D Love MGMT!
i love how they have the flute player
this is great
Respect to that flute girl shes amazing and hot.
I love the vibe they set and how they slowed the tempo...so jealous i couldnt be there to receive the magic :(
Chenzira Hemphill it was beautiful. 🤗 still remember the feeling when they started playing this song
@hamblyrock jizztastic is a jizztastic word, thank you for adding it to my vocabulary
I think its an audio problem, because youre right
2 revival bands i love: mgmt and wolfmother!
woo andreeewww.... nice dress:) awesome song.
Much respect for the keyboard player!
sounds good
Confederate flag is pretty much the last thing I'd expect to see at an MGMT show. Then again I guess it was a festival.
i wish they did ............i need to see them before i die.
that riff guitarist always does amazing outros
lmao the flute player is tripping mad balls 2:40 she was about to start playing without the mic XD
The way he says "eel" at 1:13 cracks me up. Hes like singing the song in a lower octave than usual...
@TNTIV you can do everything on acid that you could normally do sobre cupcake try it. actually play your bass you will love it
@theghostoutside LOL how did i find you poci.
This is so much better then the album version
wow. whoever you are, these words are fucking brilliant. I've never read anyone as open-minded as you when it comes to these comments. good shit dude, i totally agree
hahahaha
for the amount of drugs consumed by this group, the music they produce is amazing. their shows would be hilarious and entertaining. :P
andrew looks beautiful O.O
@LMOEsMusic i dont get why they put a flute in there i mean the synth does the job...
the bass sounds a RETRO...SUPER, NICE
I saw them live friday night, they're actually unbelievable live and Andrews voice is perfect. This performance doesn't sound so great because Andrews mic either isn't recorded properly on this or has been turned down too much.
am i right in thinking that MGMT is jus the guy playing the keys / synth and the rythem guitarist in the multi coloured poncho ?????
Andrew, you shock me like electric feel.
@TheGawryolek
haha all those years of music and you havent played live have you? playing live is fucking awesome and exhilirating, like a drug.
You have to see them live before you say they are bad. UA-cam clips don't do any band justice. Live, their lack of polish as musicians is not as noticed. They absolutely are a great live band.
The 50,000 or so in the crowd is eating them up, why? Because they are not listening through their crappy computer speakers with the volume on 3 so as not to disturb their parents in the next room.
I can't get over what Andrew is wearing.
lol MGMT is just one big acid trip
i can't seem to find a hippie poncho online :'(
@mistad00m i agree with playing live and ive only done it as a kid....and i think that flute player looks nervous cause the lead guitarist is knocking out a jizztastic riff and feels embarressed to play that over it haha
Hear, hear!
@Mstermaan i completely agree.
How come the flute still plays when the flutest moves away from the mic at the beginning ?
Hmmmmmm
reading 2012. please.
man the feed back at 1:40 is crazy
my ears just made love really nice
sorry for telling everyone ur bald. but i just thought they should take that into mind when they read ur comment :)
@gizmatron121 The drummer is Danny Carey. He isn't playing in Tool anymore. He decided to do MGMT full time after he heard electric feel. Sorry to break the bad news to ya : )
That flute is SOOOOOO #########!!!!!!
@mistad00m i played twice live.....
the flute lady kills it! and shes sexy. best band of our generation. psychadelic pop surf rock. all the best genres in one mega-epic band!!
do you think they got the pretty flute playing girl ... just because shes good a playing the flute? if you know what i mean
lol they're so fucking high in this video. It's kind of hilarious.
Agree. I hate those blind fans who thinks every gig of their favorite band sounds perfect when they don't ... Good bands have their bad days too.
I think it's Will (the drummer) singing a bit too loud. I can barely hear Andrew nor Ben.
electric feel at abbey road has the coolest riff at the end
@ifyoufly
where did you learn those phrases? reading yahoo band reviews - lol? there is no such thing, ask Paul McCartney if mgmt songs are "over studio'd" or "over produced"....
2019
their raw sound is what makes them who they are. i want them to stay like they are. i fear they will end up like kings of leon.
I'm taking them very seriously. The music is sooo good..
Why is his mic volume so low
@BloodStainedBane omg mgmt are modern pink floyd dont you think? ;]
i love andrew
He's tripping real nice! He doesn't give a fuck for rest...
I was very wrong saying that MGMT was another one of that stupid comercial bands!
this guys are gold.
It's not that bad. I thought it was pretty decent. It probably felt different to the people there. I'm sure the atmosphere of the festival suited this well
Sooo.. What would you call that thing that Andrew is wearing?
It'd be so funny if Andrew's mic was actually turned off and it was the drummer that was singing the whole time lol
nah it was the lead guitarist the one with the black les paul custom
Where's Andrew's sound? His mic must not have been working.
@BBBgYm I know whatt you mean. ...it's kinda like a studio song and yet they fuckin figured it out.
@mistad00m well k i understand it and yeah flute is better but i was just saying that the synth could have done the job and the lady who was playing wouldnt have to scared to death by the crowd... and i do understand basic music knowledge i went to music school for 6 years and been playing guitar for 11 years...
HAHAHAH TRUE
where is andrew's beautiful voice?
They arent selling out. They said "the rolling stones werent indie, either was led zeppelin" they want to be known but still have fun
"o" you missed one (too)
a lot of grass was burned at this show, its beautiful.
uumm yes it is.
anyone know who that flutist is?
My ovaries just exploded.
stalker..?.. guess that makes me one too
:( i found u both
at 1:00 the guy spazzes out haha
is it just me or the dude with the leather coat looks like liam cormier :O (the singer of Cancer Bats)
@PSskateUT uhh not only stoners love there music though.
Also..... 1:22 EPIC GUITAR RIFF FACE !!!!!!!!
lmaoo yeah good job guys :P you're mad.
I'm going to see them in new york, they are headlining a 3 day festival, FUCK YAH
Most youtube video sound bad, if you were there, you would not have noticed if it was bad.
HIS TIE DYE SHIRT IS KICK ASS!!!!
And why would you say that?
james
Out of the few live versions of Electric Feel I've seen on youtube, it seems they almost always play it down-tempo (i.e. slower) than the studio version. Why?? This is the kind of song you'd want to play a little faster than usual live if anything.
James? Maybe. I think Will sings a bit higher indeed..
LOL just listen to the music guys!
@320bit hey that may be true about the confederate flag back in the day and maybe even now, but when most people who flail it around nowadays are mostly doing it because their great great great grandfathers or whatever fought in it. Although they fought in that war it doesn't always mean that they completely agreed with it either, even if they did agree with it you can't judge their offspring's. I'm not even white, as a matter of fact i am Colombian born in California, just stating my opinion.
@Alannbitchh true
Right, and in UK even! Wth is that all about?
@ateasdale38 agreed
