The end of this song is absolutely out of this world - the "hand it over" choir in the background makes it so deep, dreamy and psychedelic. Best one from MGMT!
80s like a MUTHA! AMAZING
Close to plagiarism of Ariel Pink - Round and Round
The ending of this song is so incredible that when I heard it for the first time when the album came out, I was obsessed. Romantic, magical and dreamy. It's my favorite song on this album.
Born too late to explore the world, born too early to explore the stars- born just in time to enjoy MGMT's return.
Kevin this is the gayest copy ive ever seen lmao
@@nomercy7622 damn bro dont need to do dat😂
Both of these things you don't get to experience seem cooler and funnier than they really are.
@@feelsokayman3959 LMAO
@@aconcagua5189 lmao? i was being serious lol
MGMT is in great form right now. Beautifully written/produced songs, amazingly trippy videos.
Alex Kessler best version of themselves thus far
hippiecheezburger I certainly agree
definitely.
Their best song for sure
ive never been disappointed by these dudes, dont ever expect i will
I know the meaning of this song is actually about the music industry, but when I first listened it resonated with my depression and made me think about our collective trauma from being born in a messed up world ran by corrupted people in power. We've played by your rules and burnt ourselves out, so hand over the happiness we're entitled to.
they actually said its literally about Donald Trump lol
Hey you might like a band called The Doublejumps if you like MGMT. Two of my favourite bands
"The smart ones exit early"
Trump's eyes are depicted, walls of guns, and the American flag are cleverly edited throughout this video. I definitely think it is about the 2016 election
Little Dark Age, amazing. When you die, phenomenal. Hand it over, EXQUISITE
When you die wins for me. Best song I've heard in a while.
I agree, When I heard when you die I had an orgasm lmao 😂
GO FUCK YOURSELF.
I could not agree more.
What are they gonna do next?!?
Feels like velvet going into my ear and swaddling my brain
Mikasacus velvet underground?
Just about
Such a good description
Love your videos. Cool to see you listen to mgmt
you always seemed like the type to enjoy MGMT
The mild psychedelia in this song is amazing. Ben always kills it
Andrew played most of the instruments on this song lol
this song made me start crying in the best way possible. i feel like mgmt’s music is always so good at connecting on an emotional level
I feel like I can hear a little Brian WIlson of the Beach Boys mixed with Tame Impala and combine that with the trippiest outro since Of Moons, Birds, & Monsters and we have a winner.
I like both of these guys but always thought Andrew vanwyngarden was a great artist like Syd Barrett like
Good to have you guys back!
This new album is so tasty!!
They never left 🚬🚬
paleclock gaming! Cool songs on RUclips#
This is such an amazingly chill song! The message is so deep and complex. I love the social commentary in MGMTs music. At least this song didn't give me an existential crisis.
Ramsey Romero
Omg
This is so true
Some mgmt's songs do give existential crisis
Arin Sheb listen to Fated to pretend. Massive deep meaning
Drastic time to pretend..?
coco nutz yeah, basically its the same thing
absolutely
Andrew has the smoothest and the most nostalgic voice i swear 😭✨✨
I absolutely love his voice
this song is produced in such a way that it reveals itself to you more and becomes more refined with each listen. i didn't realize that was a funky guitar riff in the background for like a week
best part of the song
Loving this mix of classic MGMT psychedelia with full blown 80's glory. Hope the album swirls around that idea.
Jason Bellmore 80s? I was thinking more velvet underground, Jefferson airplane.
megalo maniac Whaaat? Those power synth chords are front and center here.
I gotta admit I had some Velvet Underground vibes from this too, even with the synth being front and center.
I was talking about this recently--my bf thinks (and I agree) that it's going to be a trippy exploration of a certain time period, early 70s to early 80s, which can encompass a lot of different genres (like Little Dark Age is very 80s). So the question is what else are they going to explore, and I sure hope they try some prog! Their tribute to Genesis or Yes would be absolutely awesome.
What a time to be alive
Alina's Diary Fuck yes so much to your comment and this song
So well defined. Bang on!
GonnaGalvanizeU yesss
The God Emperor is on the Cherry Blossom Throne and all is well
I agree
I used to listen to this albumn on repeat when it first came out and coming back to this well i cant even play this song without getting blasted with nostalgia. This albumn represents a time in my life and has strong feelings connected to it :')
Can't wait to slow dance to this song with my date at prom this year 1987!!
Sara Shy you just had to pick the year I graduated from high school.
Omg I used to go to dances aged 9 in 1987!
Shutt uuuuuppp
If this was from the late 80s, they'd be wayyy ahead of their time.
I'm excited for you and your punching bag. :)
I'm giddy with delight.
TwistySpiny I see what you did there 😉
Seeing whats to come?
wen i play this song the stereo sounds strange?
Man... Just to think, that if you hide, IT DOESN'T GO AWAY

MGMT is underrated af. Maybe this'll be the album that wakes up those who've been sleeping on them.
They are just definitely not underrated. Granted they’re quite good. To call them underrated would be incorrect. They are well known, and acknowledged as good by a giant audience. This video will have over 500,000 views, and support from a giant fan base before 24 hours had passed.
Calvin Carter I see your point, there are still many that appreciate them. but as far as public perception and critics they aren't mentioned as 1 of best bands of the last decade.(and they are).
I feel this album is going to be their least interesting for me, personally. This is the most musically generic song MGMT have released to date. Maybe it'll give them more fans, but I wish they kept evolving from the direction they established with the last two albums. They're only underrated among 60's and 70's rock fans, and this album definitely won't be turning anyone on who likes more complexity in their music.
psychedelicpiper perhaps but to me the songwriting and production is as good as ever and the I think the album will still have plenty of experimentation, the singles are just to bring in more casual fans.
It won't wake anyone up. The masses... The average person... Is just getting dumber and dumber... Check our demographics. That's why the radio #1 song gets worse and worse basically every year. We're long past the times where the best music is most popular. If Beethoven came out today it'd have 100,000 views max.
the album HAND IT OVER
Actually, I feel like that's what this song is about.
"The deals we made to shake things up
And the rights that they abuse
Might just fuck us over
But the doors won't shut
Until they're sure there's nothing left to use"
This is a record label trying to control artists, turn them into a product, use them up and fuck them over.
A lot of artists are contractually obligated to release X albums within X years when they make a record deal. Or even some people might keep bothering a successful artist who's not currently under a contract... trying to make some money off of them. So, one way or another, maybe the label was pressuring them to release a new album.
"But the stars weren't wrong, the time felt right
We both knew it was true
The smart ones exit early
And the rest hope for a shoulder"
'The time felt right' means that they actually were wanting to make a new album. 'Smart ones exit early' is like 'quit while your ahead'; i.e., artists who make a bunch of money with a couple albums and then disappear. 'The rest hope for a shoulder' is like saying the ones who keep on putting out music are bound to get reactions from old fans who don't like the new music and reading or hearing negative comments like 'mgmt sucks now' is depressing and makes you want 'a shoulder to cry on'.
"It's time (Hand it over)" is MGMT saying 'we're working on a new album' and the fans saying 'Hand it over'.
unknown. Nicely done,I see what you did there...Very clever ;)
MGMT LDA
Can’t stop listening to this song.
I listened to it yesterday one time and it was in my head all fucking day.
Glenn Bill same perfect for letting youre mind wander.
Same
sameeeee
...same
really smooth, feels like a mature 'congratulations' - this is gonna be a good one
Different Miguel ye:):):):)!!!!¡!¡!¡¡
this is giving me a really different vibe than congratulations, maybe a bit more lethargic(?), but yeah I really don't want to get my hopes too high after the self titled which I found a bit disappointing but I am hoping this is going to be as good as congratulations was when it came out
Armaan Kalkat Their self titled is very difficult but trust me when I say with enough listens it becomes amazing
Armaan Kalkat I have higher hopes for this one based on the 3 singles releases so far. I'm digging it 👌
Reminds me of electric feel the most. It's electric feels grandpa who's cool as shit
2018 has been waiting for this, since 2017.
themk23 more like since 2016
rizkunisnator I was rounding up
if we're being honest 2013
More like 1960s haha
This is my favorite MGMT song since "Siberian Breaks"
same here
Siberian Breaks is a fantastic song!
I'm glad other people also like that song, one of my favorites!
was thinking the same
Siberian Breaks still stands tall amongst the rest, but damn does this come close. Beautiful track.
Verse 1]
The deals we made to shake things up
And the rights that they abused
Might just fuck us over
But the doors won't shut
Until they're sure there's nothing left to use
Someone's taking over
Threw it away, but now I say
It's time to hand it over
[Verse 2]
The joke's worn thin, the king stepped in
Now we'll see who is who
Look who's bending over
But the stars weren't wrong, the time felt right
We both knew it was true
The smart ones exit early
And the rest hope for a shoulder
[Verse 3]
If we lose our touch, it won't mean much
If everyone's confused
Which door do we open?
It's the same old trick, they played their hand
Now there's one thing to left to do
[Chorus 1]
This time (Hand it over)
It's yours and it's mine (Hand it over)
One thing on my mind (Hand it over)
It's rightfully mine (Hand it over)
In the dark (Hand it over)
What's yours is mine (Hand it over)
Mm, make it right (Hand it over)
And give me what's mine (Hand it over)
[Chorus 2]
Oh, this time (Hand it over)
It's yours and mine (Hand it over)
Hey, it's time to hand it over
Just give me what's mine (Hand it over)
Mm, anytime (Hand it over)
It's yours and it's mine (Hand it over)
Oh, I need time (Hand it over)
No, no, it's rightfully mine (Hand it over)
Oh, anytime
Thanks m8
Where is the verse written here from?
This album is going to be amazing
Nix Kuiper totally agree with you
You know, I’m really glad you guys are back
The Haunted Beach Boys
Mike love fr..
Dude, hit the nail on the head. Perfect description.
The Haunted Beach Boys meet George Harrison... Definitely that.
i can't explain it but this feels like the end of humanity
It might be
New MGMT, I like 2018 already.
this song is going to be on repeat like all weekend.
Oracular Spectacular: Chill
Congratulations: Trippy
S/T: Not of human construction
Next Album: Transcending into a world where Shrooms in breakfast, lunch and dinner
I'd say S/T is something from "Alien" (if you know what i mean ;) )
You say it👌
I have a hunch that they could have been experimenting with Psychedelics, all of these songs come across that way and if they haven't I just think it's impressive that they have captured it so well.
Alien Days is what saved the ST
tandie13 true
sounds like a psychadelic beach boys tune, genius
This is going to be a hit.
Jasmine Amelia yee
no it won't, it's bad....
Rye S keep listening
In your names my friends!
It is already bro 😊
MGMT brings me back to some of the happiest times of my life which I am no longer connected with. I wish I still was.
Chris Morse well if it’s bringing you back, your on your way. I believe you will find happiness. Keep jammin 2 this jam
me to
Same. But even if you don't feel it, you're still connected to it, really. You can let yourself feel like you are. That's all it is, a feeling, a memory.
I can relate to your comment so much holy fuck man,the last time i felt genuinely happy was 2016 and i won't get it back for sure,all i have is music and its like my drug
You have to bring the happiness with you as you go. If the music brings you back to your happiness, then it is a gift, and your gift is happiness. Take it with you this time and you are all fucking good!
A bit of a ELO strange magic feel. Love it
I remember when I first discovered MGMT with electric feel. When I found out they came out with another album I was so glad. Love you guys and everyone listening. Remember you are worthy. Wishing everyone a happy 2018!!! 🎤🔊🎼😊👁️🙏
GuRu1111 They’ve sadly moved away from that upbeat music, seems they want to do something like the Oracular Spectacular/Congratulations album with something new. Can’t wait for Little Dark Age album.
RB Spoken that's what people sometimes don't understand that an artist are different people then they were and are always changing and it shows in the music but it keeps getting stronger with experience,
Heck yea, love and prosperity to you and everyone on here too. Rock on bro.
Brett Blizzard thanks my brother you rock on too positive vibes your way.
It's speaking to me about my ex boyfriend Michael lol
I heard a rumor last year that they were going to do a song with Demarco and this would've been perfect for him to be featured on, has that sound.
David caldera I think Demarco was on when you die
ugh!! that sounds great
I gotta find this out lol
no that was ariel pink and connan mockasin
this was a reply to young pierre. when you die had those people not mac
Greatest band ever
Wow, amazing! Muhamed Ali jams to MGMT? < 3
Ryan Smith Nah, best band ever. Depends on your perspective
Best outro ever
I feel like I could melt into this music
Crazy how my life and the moment I am in right now relate completely to this! Can't wait till I buy the album
Akasha-Midna 88 I know right! I feel like every MGMT song relates to me in a way. They also got a song coming out called James, THAT'S MY NAME!!!
I have no idea what this song is about, you guys understand?
The SaddestDude It can be interpreted differently, like most of their songs, just listen to the lyrics and mind your own meaning.
The first thing that came to mind was a person trying to kill himself but being interrupted and now the person that interrupted tries to convince the suicidal person to hand over the gun.
MGMT coming in clutch after a rough night
I feel so happy to be able to follow along as they move through their sound, through the decades.
The last 45 seconds of this song give me chills, all the time
thank you for existing
You too
bless us with a north American tour 😁
P0ETICsin separate from huge festivals please! I live in NorCal. We'd have to chose from Coachella or Outside Lands. Too much of to much for me these days. Be well!
please :/
same! ive been waiting years for them to come to the bay!
I got lucky enough to see them at Freefest within a week or two of their last album coming out. There was a few flubs but still one of thr best shows ive been to
Samantha Cantu yeeee! Just the thought gives JOY. They should play the Fox Theater in Oakland. I've seen them live twice and it was lovely. Here's to hoping! Happy 2018! ONLY LOVE, Maria
I can understand this song and most of the others. I hope everyone else can start understanding them more. It took me years to but I was always subconsciously attracted to their music. Vanwyngarden is ahead in time in our current age.
You have to be spiritually aware to completely understand what he means or is trying to express. There's a lot of depth and history to it.
"The deals we made to shake things up
And the rights that they abuse
Might just fuck us over
But the doors won't shut
Until they're sure there's nothing left to use"
This has to do about humanity repeatedly reincarnating. History has been repeating itself from our imbalance of light and darkness.
We are set on a path by a higher conscious in life. We are suppose to learn from our past mistakes and transform and evolve with light in our life, individually and together.
We have free will and every so age our human race keep making terrible errors that get ourselves taken out because darkness overcame man and it was destructive, unlawful and not on the divine path we've been set on. It could happen again in our time where we could wipe our race out, spiritually and physically only to start again and be better than before. It comes as no surprise and seems to be a pattern in our evolution.
"The joke's worn thin, the king stepped in
Now we'll see who is who
Look who's bending over"
Once we fulfill our purpose and live a life in the light then we can evolve from physical form and "the king", as Vanwyngarden refers him here, chooses who evolves and who continues to reincarante until they don't make those mistakes that unqualified them in the first place, unless he is referring about the end of humanity once it gets to the end of its physical path all together.
"It's time
It's yours and it's mine
One thing on my mind
It's rightfully mine
In the dark
What's yours is mine
Mmm, make it right
And give me what's mine"
He is referring to his soul not feeling like it's completely his own because the higher conscious rules over it. He can see premonitions of the future but he can't see what will be done about his soul, if it will remain his own or be absorbed by the higher conscious in life. He is hoping it will remain his own and that he will keep his conscious.
Regardless he will have to, hand it over.
Hope this helps some of you and also understand that MGMT is not about just being on drugs. They are much deeper than that and hope more can learn to appreciate that as well. This is only my interpretation of what I could grasp or found highlighting.
I'm sure they will always know what the true meanings are since it is their art.
I appreciate the very well thought out insight of this song. That resonates with me very much. I feel we have been led astray as a civilization, and we are trapped in a negative cycle right now.
I was hoping to see a comment like this. Thank you so much.
Yes he’s talking about how he sold his soul to satan. Jesus saves trust in him alone for salvation. Read the Bible and obey it
This sounds like a song that would play during the credits to existence
For real.
Christ you guys are really firing on all cylinders. Little Dark Age is about to kick everyone's ass in the best way imaginable.
Yes MGMT all the way!
Profound Desperado their mojo is so dope man
Let's all take a moment to appreciate that Kid Cudi and MGMT made a song together and it was incredible.
Christian Rogers Lets not forget Ratatat
Best track on the album. Probably top 10 in the past decade. LOVE the chorus. BRILLIANT
crazy to think that this band is 16 years old and still one of my more anticipated album releases every year.
A small show in Ecuador wouldn´t be that bad... lots of love ♡♡♡♡♡♡
Andrew and Ben are the greatest songwriters of all time...
I feel like this song should be incorporated in the next Guardians of the Galaxy soundtrack.
Old Man and Shively Humperdink, thank you for the visual nutrition
mgmt still woke af
agree
Woke is a stupid overused surface level word. They're better than that.
seeping. Calm down mate

Never stopped bein woke
Andrew VanWyngarden i love u
azzah athirah who doesn't ...
I've listen to this song 9 times today.
These guys are like a modern Pink Floyd and im into it
Kid Cudi is Blue Floyd
Nothing like Pink Floyd
@@Rex-jg2jr this song reminds me of fat old sun
@@Rex-jg2jr it definitely has syd Barrett era vibes

Lo mejor de lo que va el año.
it"s the case when you play one song over and over again, and it remains in your mind and you feel like it always been there
I love how this band puts so much effort into their work. It has to be noticed. Phenomenal
Love the sound of the new stuff MGMT are back.
jersey Mcgee They never left. It's not their fault you didn't like MGMT or Congratulations.
Their last one (self-titled) I just could not get into, no matter how I tried. I like Congratulations though.
I love congatialations but self titled was just a bit too messy for me, I did like a few songs though.
( Not saying it's bad )
List best to worst..
1. Congratulations
2. LDA
3. Oracular Spectacular
4. MGMT.
I love this so much!!
i get a heart attack every time they release a new song
MilaMila can’t believe you’ve survived
😄🤣
Well that sucks. LMAO
Good job MGMT and good job Shively Humperdink for the visuals!
it's the first time i've heard MGMT but i think this year we're gonna listen many many times their music
GianCarlo ZL listen to congratulations and little dark age
Its so nice to have new songs from mgmt
it's got a bee gees vibe and i love it!
simply sublime....my 2000s indie-rock loving self is QUAKING
Thank you MGMT!!!!!
Absolutely, amazing!
This feels so melancholic after a horrible break up... Don't get me wrong, I understand that this was not necessarly the meaning they intended, but hearing "Hand it over/The smart ones exit early/And the rest hope for a shoulder/It's time/It's yours and it's mine/Mmmm, make it right/And give me what's mine". It hits so specifically with what happened that it pains me, thank you for this beatiful song
Love that these dudes putting new music out again. Hell yea...
I wish you guys could feel this song the same way I feel. I have no words.
Political?
Reminds me of the days when artists actually put effort into every song they released.
Excuse me do u know bts?

These three songs have already been great, so who knows what amazing potential the full album will bring!
I never imagined Shively would direct a music video, especially for something this big. Kudos and great job!
Getting Beach Boys vibes with this one
the best kind
bradzilla91 Haha i said the same thing in my head..awesome..
bradzilla91 yes me too now that u say
I hear beach boys, tame impala, the animals, mgmt. Beautifully constructed combination they've made all their own.

Me gustaría que las canciones de éste álbum suene más como esta rola, muy bien adoro este estilo 👋❤
I've loved every song released so far, so excited for the album
This song is one of my favorites from MGMT. I would love to get the chance to see them play this live. That would be an amazing and surreal experience
Ha I got tickets to see them in concert!
It was amazing!
Love it so much! And excited for your return
New tunes lets go!!
Finally!!! Ive been waiting so long for a good mgmt album! From the sounds of it this is going to be a great one!!!
I love this song so much.. I cant stop playin it.. Great MGMT music lives on..
Amazing 💓💓💓
Like a mix between Beach boys and tame impala
Was thinking the same thing ... but with a little zeppelin sprinkled in there somewhere.
Sentí la misma cosa...
Or its just like MGMT
So chilled out
hand it over, that thing, your dark soul
This album is going to be amazing in so many different ways! I cannot wait! I love all their other albums but it’s been so long.
Hell yeah, just what I needed to kick off my friday 😎
Somebodies been listening to pet sounds...
Vaint I was going to say Surf's Up
Vaint this seriously sounds like a pet sounds b-side
more like Sunflower
Vaint I was think Tame Impala.
Pet sounds did influence a lot of stuff like that
Just saw them today in Kingston- London. Really enjoyed this one live, they are amazing
Best song they have ever produced
