MGMT performing "Congratulations" on KCRW

MGMT took a psychedelic turn on their new release, trading in their signature electro-pop for stylistic leap into epic sprawling tunes. We're excited to hear it in a live session on Morning Becomes Eclectic. Watch /Listen to the full session here: www.kcrw.com/music/programs/mb...

[@jasonlloyd33]

[@NEKOM4TA]

andrew's cute when he's clapping at his hands at the end

[@keilanova]

@vcshort1 just at the end...seems like they r about to started

[@zbox98]

@JPraise100 I think they shifted their psychedelic style to a more classic sounding psychedelic rock, but Oracular was pretty wild sounding.

[@IHateXs]

3:40 hell yeah Ben!

[@slydemon0]

[@marcosconstantino777]

Desde que elegí una foto para mi cuenta jamás la cambié...

[@johncastens695]

Somebody bought every single copy of the vinyl under $45 on eBay and now the cheapest option is like $55 when I could have gotten it for $30 a month ago. I am so pissed

[@baileymae11]

ok i know some of the chords: C,D, G maybe an Em7. Can someone help please. :)

[@goutbutt7575]

Brandi Martin have you looked online cuz ultimate guitar has em

[@Killerjay117]

Brandi Martin starts G, F#/G, EM, C, C/B, AM. Then G, F#/G, EM, C, D, G, C, G, G7. Then C, D, C, D, D7

[@STOPPEDINCOLORADO]

The chords on Ultimate Guitar are wrong. Don't use them.

[@cantina2425]

V HAS COME TO they're actually right,the people who say their wrong don't know the strumming pattern for the song

[@liltonyboy102]

[@kariskarebear]
