I’m sure he loves having been in a band on the cusp of making it for like ten years and then being called not an actual rock star, yeah he’s not a STAR but he’s a huge rock and punk head
The multi-dimensional concept is truly powerful, yet extremely subtle and has such an appeal to a great diversity of listeners, yet somehow maintains its own unique isolation from anyone or anything. These qualities and characteristics will solidify a huge fan base while alienating the majority of potential followers.
Laughing so hard! Love it!!! The Flaming Lips are very special to us. We have enjoyed their concerts. Our son enjoyed the "premiere" of their film Christmas on Mars at Wayne's house. Some neighbor kept calling the police. LOL
When I started listening to the Flaming Lips in 1988, almost nobody had heard of them. A year later they played a local club that only held 300 people at best, and now you would have a hard time fitting their fans into an arena. How times have changed.
"I'm a humble person, I'm nice, I'm respectful, I'm cool, and I'm normal"
This how i introduce myself to employers now.
@@blushingfrieza 😂
"We're the Flaming Lips. Heard of us much? Thought so."
Oh my God.
Well it's official now, Flaming Lips need to play more Krautrock
Who B'stank why is nobody talking about Neu?!
Electric Wurm was kinda krautrock
man no shite eh?!?
Theres krautrock all over embryonic tho
Go listen to embryonic. You should get your fill.
"And he's a great singer, just what the Flaming Lips need"
Low-key shots fired
...don't forget more indie cred...I caught that also and noticed wayne just nodding and agreeing
I like how Wayne can’t stop laughing
Fred Armisen is a better rockstar than most actual rock stars..
Cause he is a true rock star df
I’m sure he loves having been in a band on the cusp of making it for like ten years and then being called not an actual rock star, yeah he’s not a STAR but he’s a huge rock and punk head
Fred Armisen can do anything. And he does. Brilliantly.
Lol, Wayne can't stop laughing
that krautrock part kinda go hard...
Trevor Neil was awesome
No shit!

lmao coldplay
fred and the flaming lips are so awesome
Fred is an American Treasure ❤️
I love that Coldplay is its own genre 😂
that Flaming Kraut though
2:36 I know it's a classic but that shot where he starts to worry is just great😂
Never realized before how much Wayne Coyne looks like Beetlejuice.
Because he doesn’t 😅😂
He looks like Jason Lee
Every time I think about getting a haircut, I just look at pics of Wayne Coyne.
My first gig was busking with a buddy of mine in flaming lips alley behind the redhawks Stadium
i like the two-tone lips they're........one step beyond!
mrheem44 he should've said pick it up pick it up 😄
On the bbc
Omg that was some truly amazing krautrock! Love his movements and the lyrics :D 40/40 would listen to a full version
Fred we all love you of course. Genius.
Am I mistaken when I say this might be the funnest thing I've seen in a while!
I know they were poking fun at coldplay but I really liked the music they were playing while imitating them, i wish it was longer!
The idea of Wayne Coyne showing another singer “how it’s done” is funny enough to be its own sketch
i don't get it
@@1ambad he sucks!
Because Wayne really can't sing, especially not live (and I fucking love the Flaming Lips)@@1ambad

Fred Armisen is a national treasure
Wayne coyne is just having too much fun in this lmaoo
Flaming Lips X Coldplay was so accurate 😂
I swear Fred’s guitar changes every time I watch this
Laughing so hard! Love it!!! The Flaming Lips are very special to us. We have enjoyed their concerts. Our son enjoyed the "premiere" of their film Christmas on Mars at Wayne's house. Some neighbor kept calling the police. LOL
I thought he pretty much owns the whole neighborhood.
Wayne Coyne looks like the Mad Scientist from the opening credits of Robot Chicken!
Best gig Fred's ever had.
Eh? He's played drums for DEVO. Damn fine job of it too.
God, I have such a man crush for Wayne. He looks so handsome in a suit. hahahaha
He's glorious
Lol, Coldplay is genre now? XD
Haha
also known as boring radiohead
I don't know if it is a band honestly
I used to listen to that album so much
damn that 12string SG that's actually a double neck but the bottom neck and guitar parts are gone is dope as fuck
WHOA
the kraut was actually sick
No worries. He took an antacid and felt better soon after.
@@Randrew nerd
the first two rows! ha. fantastic. fred is amazing.
The Coldplay part really got me.
memonk11 is that an actually song
hey, I get it, I'm a professional, you know?
I guess the Flaming Lips are FoD's resident band now.
Those Flaming Lips are pretty good. I hope they get a big break, thanks to Frank Armitage..
dude's hair is amazing
I am so in love with Fred Armisen.
Same!!
Flaming lips one day I WILL see you live!!
Fred only plays with the best!
Worst career move of The Flaming Lips was to keep Coyne instead of replacing him with Fred.
dude's expressions were the best
2:10 HAHAHALLKLMFAO
There is no problem more cowbell can't cure.
Whose this sappy springling in the background with moist eyes...cracking me up! lol
ZPH SpearHead sappy springling would be a good band name 😂
What is the name of the actor that is the band manager?
good band, they can jam in any style they want.
Coldplay is now a style of music like jazz or ska...lol
Does anyone have any info on that double neck sg that’s missing a neck. What the heck.
The Bossa Nova was awesome
Glad I'm not the only person who thinks the krautrock part slaps
total Neu! motorik beat mixed with Kraftwerk parody vocals
Still one of the greatest bands ... Something for every mood !
1:21 here you go
What the first song?
Yoshimi battles the pink robots I think
This was special
Haha the skank dance was gold
WHERES Shawn?
*ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL!*
I recognize that manager from "Man Seeking Woman".
brilliant!
Its official...the new flamming lips needs to play more coldplay
OMG! It's Fred Armisen
That band manager dude looks like Woody from Toy Story.😅
haha yesss
That guy looks like Woody from Toy Story lmao
I’m convinced Wayne Coyne and the good Dr. Jordan Peterson share the same tailor.
Men with distinction.
🧐
Nice catch lol...
Did I just see coldplay?
Funny or die? Cmon

I saw them open up for the butthole surfers in 1988
omg so good
I recommend Fred try out to be the second drummer like in Allman Brothers
The funniest part is Wayne trying his hardest to look like an asshole. XD Sorry bud, you’re too good for this world!!
Why did they stop so short on the bossa nova? Fucking unreal. Wayne’s losing his shit over his friends playing fucking bossa nova lmao
the flaming lips members made this worth watching but this skit's brand of humor does absolutely nothing to me.
Shure sm7b's that's whatsup.
LOL "coldplay"
WTF. I SAW THAT GUY TODAY IN MODERN FAMILY !
Wayne has hair only a nuclear physicist should have...
There's a double neck with just one neck.
portland aproves
Coldplay...LOL
I got a fevah ... and the only prescription is ... more Krautrock
Lol, John Daly skankin.
The business man is right though...the flaming lips do need more indie credentials and a great singer....they need way more of that!!!!
Lol
Stupid a good stupid. Meaning yes it's funny and besides I didn't want to meet death
Maybe instead of a band, they should have a car wash or a tobacco shop.
Hahahaha Coldplay!!
Lol at coldplay
I’m think Sam Rockwell could totally pass...
Krautrock lol
FRED > WAYNE
Sacrificial Cake was better than Drainland indeed. Still loving both though.
Fighting symbol and two names
He actually did really good👊
Um this wasnt funny at all so whens the execution and funeral?
Cacao!
