    My little sister has Autism and she communicates through music a lot of the time. She’s always playing and listening to music. Recently, she’s discovered this song and plays it constantly. Typically, she’d only listen to select parts of songs, but with this one, she’ll play the whole thing through and will make up a new dance to it every time she plays it. I’m not sure what makes this song different for her, but I don’t mind listening to it constantly at all.

THATS another level. the live performance in Brisbane for this song had less than a 100 people. slightly lower level than 600,000 people id say. think before you comment.

    Some years ago (probably at 2012) I had listened this song at radio. Was at a high hour of the night and there wasn't announcer or something to tell the name of the song but the choir stucked in my head.
    I tried to search in RUclips "Sometimes I wanna disappear" but I didn't got anything. Maybe the song wasn't so popular at that moment or the search engine wasn't like today, I don't know.
    Today I remembered it and I tried again. It's amazing when you finally find a song that was in your head for many time and the part you recognize is better than you remember.
    Now I got the chance to hear the whole song again, and man, it's great.

      Ahh, I found my family...Probably because MGMT and FTP have the same Psychedelic Rock feel. Especially in this album.

    Love the vibe I get from this jam like Electric Feel from MGMT.
