People don't realize how ACTUALLY old this song is. The melody of the first demo was the melody that, according to Joe: ''Was stuck in his head ever since he went to Hawaii when he was 8''. This song is decades old.
man, joe held onto this one idea for so long, i cant imagine how it mustve felt to hear the final version of the song in hawaii part II knowing it was the culmination of at least 6 years of the creative process
for real.. the craziest thing to me is 'Dream Sweet' is a melody or something that was stuck in his head in 1997 as a kid on vacation in *hawaii* , and iirc its what brought him into the world of songwriting.
i dont because it made labyrinth exist, seemingly unfinished, in hawaii part, dare i say ruining the album by just cluttering, and confuzzling everything. should've been a solo like variations on a cloud because it only takes from the story.
ah yes, my favorite mind of simon verse or lyric "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"

yah they stole labyrinth from mind electric basically. they were like "were gonna get rid of this part but it sounds SO GOOD we gotta put it in another song" (from expreience i totally do this all the time with my own music)
5:32 they honestly should’ve kept that scream in the final version of the song, or they should have put any sort of scream in it. It would’ve fit so well
I could rant for hours about how beautifully made this song is, the storyline and little details are insane, and the way everything ties into each other is just perfect, this song is so unworldly and ethereal oh my god
If you listen VERY closely you can hear speaking in the background of the reverse part. Here's what I've picked out so far: - A man saying "I would like too..." (I couldn't hear the rest of his sentence) - A woman saying "You should be ashamed of yourself" - A small child saying "And then they sailed off" (I once more could not hear the rest of the sentence)
Most of the words in the background are written on the genius lyrics page. I think someone found the original BBC audio that the last bit is from (the one talking about sailing off and dumping you at Timbuktu)
Oh susy, a sloop. They would sail you off and dump you onto the beaches of Timbuktou. They can't dump me onto the beaches of Timbuktou. Why not? Well because Timbuktou happens to be in the middle of the Sahara desert.
As far as I indetstand (even though, I'l never ever, ever undestand...), the song, originally titled "Inside the mind of Simon" was meant to be on Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum
That image is a puzzle. They are equally distributed. Look at the corners first, then the center between each corner. They are never there twice. Then look at the 9 in the center. The same rules apply. But Joe is in the middle, which is the only break of the pattern.
@@cleo_con honestly I quit half way through, basically the corners and mid sections between corners are always different band members. The only break in sequence is Joe Hawley in the middle, that could represent something about Joe hawley breaking character or being different. Or it could just be that he wrote the song and they just wanted to put emphasis on him.
@@cleo_con a better way of explains it is that if they don’t repeat, there’s only 1 per row. If you focus on one of them and check the vertical and horizontal row that it’s in then it will be all different members. Technically I was talking about a different pattern though, it could have been just a side effect of trying to create this one, but I find it unlikely.
i still cant believe this song was actually decades old, according to Joe the melody of The Mind Electric was stuck in his head ever since he went to Hawaii when he was 8. HES 41 YEARS OLD NOW
yeah its really cool also im pretty sure that they kind of inclluded it because the whistle at "see how the brain plays around" seems like it has the same melody (at least to me) but it wouldve been awesome if they included the whole thing
So I found this song through an amv/pmv. At the time I had never heard of Tally Hall, I had heard snippets of Turn The Lights Off and Banana Man, but was never really interested in finding out about who wrote either one. With The Mind Electric, however, it instantly became one of my favorite songs. I found this video, looked through the comments, and barely understood what they were talking about. As time went on, however, I slowly learned more about the band. I started actively listening to them, all the while learning more about them and growing my obsession. Now here I am, Tally Hall now being my absolute FAVORITE band and me being able to name any song under the Tally Hall label!
I wish that everybody could achieve their ideas the way Joe managed to complete this song. I wish the same for myself because I've been trying to make my dream game since 2019 amd I still haven't achieved much.
I love the 7:14 one because it sounds so Distorted, it’s pretty much the same song I’ve been listening to for all theses years except replayed, remembered and passed along to repeat the cycle until you have this.
The final release version is my favorite, but I really do like the cut part from demo 4 and would have liked to hear how it would have worked in the final edition.
the demos (specifically demo 2 and 3) make me feel sick to my stomach, in demo 2 the part where he's screaming 1:05 and where it plays backwards, and 3:06 the electric (i assume) shocks. it just gives me an uneasy feeling
man the demo 2 is awful. it really makes me feel so ... watched, like paranoid. it sucks but at the same time it's amazing, it really gives you a glimpse inside his completely destroyed mind :(
This song is addicting in a way and its literally the only thing ive been listening to for months since i found it Somehow it also calms me a bit, especially the bridge in the distorted version
Demo 1 Lyrics: Lubbadun Taiven Sevasen Sheeva Ovum Steiva Ohhh Fluoh, Flabbadun Taiven Glubbajen Cheeva Ovun Teiva Drubbadun Dahhh (Note, i dont actually know if these are in another language, but knowing tally hall, it may very well just be gibberish, utter babbling)
Idea one: the same sort of frantic fast piano but with like a ghostly whisting sound instead and a low heartbeat sounding *bum ba-da bum dum, bum ba-da bum dum* underneath it all
Ok I left this to simmer for a while sorry I haven't been here but I've been a lil busy but I've finally started working on it! I'll make a RUclips video in a little updating yall so check back here in about 8 days or so to see!
I have no fucking idea where this song comes from, they say it's decades old and it gives me chills to think how good it is, besides its variations, something very strange but pleasant
i can see that the mind electric was almost theyre biggest project, so manny demos and other stuff. but then we got the final official song and it sounds amazing.i love the genious idea of the beggining being reversed but with some changes that arent in the non reversed part.
Tally Hall: “ALL MINE TOWERS CRUMBLE DOWN THE FLOWERS GASPING UNDER RUBBLE” Also Tally Hall: “Do you want a banana? Peel it down and go mmmm Do you want a banana? This banana for you!”
Amazing! I'm surprised no Psytrance DJ has remixed this song yet. I'd love to hear a Neelix/ Ghostrider/ Vini Vici version of this with the vocals by CarolineHarrison.
This is such a song to listen to as your organs be brutally ripped out of your own body, in an alleyway at 10:00 AM; or to be holding onto the arms of your chair as electric bolts damage your brain
I think that Labyrinth deserves a mention on this list. Although not directly in the lineage of the Hawaii pt.ii version (which seems to be the ‘complete’ version of the song), It shares the chord progression of the ‘serfs’ section and is arguably closer to Demo Four than the final song.
When I first heard the melody from labyrinth I genuinely had all the ties between the two songs instantly connect and I just got hit with a whole new meaning from labyrinth.

Would have been a lot longer, this was before the 2005 release of Marvin's, I would say it was about 8 years, maybe 7
joe says that he sticks to his ideas forever. quite a few of the songs in hawaii part ii are very old
6? Try 10. The earliest versions of this are from before Marvin's. So pre 2005.

you are doing gods work
joe hawley’s magnum opus, everyone.
Thank you so much for this. It’s like listening to some kind of sonic fossil record for one of my favorite compositions.
Please tell me y'all hear 'labyrinth' in the reversed version of the song
I need help pls tell me where
i actually really like the second demo. the scream is terrifying
Very interesting stuff.
OMG KLAATU PFP EEEEE
Love the scream in demo 4. one of my favorite parts in the whole electric mind of Simon lineup.

Me and the boys having a mental breakdown after searching up pron for the first time
Amazing!
I'm surprised no Psytrance DJ has remixed this song yet.
I'd love to hear a Neelix/ Ghostrider/ Vini Vici version of this with the vocals by CarolineHarrison.
Man in demo4: doctor i cant tell if im not me
doctor: lol, lmao
This is such a song to listen to as your organs be brutally ripped out of your own body, in an alleyway at 10:00 AM; or to be holding onto the arms of your chair as electric bolts damage your brain

I PUT THW VIDEO IN MINI MODE FOR A FEW SECONDS AND 19:02 JUMPSCARED ME HELP
I think that Labyrinth deserves a mention on this list. Although not directly in the lineage of the Hawaii pt.ii version (which seems to be the ‘complete’ version of the song), It shares the chord progression of the ‘serfs’ section and is arguably closer to Demo Four than the final song.
When I first heard the melody from labyrinth I genuinely had all the ties between the two songs instantly connect and I just got hit with a whole new meaning from labyrinth.
man i love the first demo "flabudun shiva" just hits so hard 😢
