urban legend says if people stop requesting Kids at their shows, they'll make a studio version of Dancing On The Beach. but i guess we'll never know...
Just see all the people dancing, Dancing on the beach. Just so many people. That's where you could be. People last together. It's all up in our heads. Huggin' you this time again. Fallin' in your bed. Prepared for nothing. I love you just the same. Just tired of all the people. On us on the stage Be here on the beach or just Stand there on the beach. Oh, no I won't hold your hand. When all the people around this place are starving. No I won't hold your hand. When all the people around this place are starving. Oh, no I won't hold your hand. When all the people around this place are starving. Oh, no I won't hold your hand. Oh, when all the people around this place are starving. Starving. See there, just play again And stamp your feet. I want to see you clap, Just clap your hands And dance to the beat. When the place just comes in view of two. Fear of chancellors watching you. Layin' in bed I said all I This place is what a swore I saw. Paranoia, paranoid streets. I found my wife today. I found my wife today. Oh, no I won't hold your hand. When all the people around this place are starving. Oh, no I won't hold your hand. When all the people around this place are starving.
Hope his dopamine and serotonin receptors are better again. 👾 He mentioned experiencing some depression (as a result of evenings like this one I think) after extensive touring and experimental drug use. Pumped about the new album.
This is getting addictive. Such randomness in one act that redefines musical genius but compels one to "stay tuned" for more... It's time for their own show on Netflix
Guys, 2018, almost call Dancing on the Beach on the concert! LETS DO THIS TOGETHER!!! In Luxembourg Andrew at one point between the songs said the phrase: "ITS THE SUMMERTIME! ...", (led to another, to the story about the beach), but exactly with the same intonation as at the beginning of "Dancing on the beach". I here in ecstasy thought that the great moment came, shouted "Dancing on the beach !!!". Andrew looked at me, laughed, repeated inquiringly: "Dancing on the Beach?", Addressing his musicians. They were not ready for such a turn. "Just take any synth," Andrew said quietly. But nothing happened, the topic was translated, "When you die" began. I hope this will somehow subconsciously affect Andrew and they will release her: D Almost got a pancake: D it's the summertime! OH SHIT! OH SHIT!
When i'm sad i watch this video and imagine that i'm James. I don't know why but that makes me feel fine. Such a great dancing happy song. It's pure life
I know this is random but I first listened to this when it came out and I couldn't help myself to replay it over and over again. I would find myself singing, "OH NO I WONT HOLD YOUR HAND WHEN ALL THE PEOPLE AROUND THIS PLACE ARE STARVING OHHH NOOOO" when I would be doing chores or even around the house and it got to a point where my little brother would get annoyed and he one day decided to check it out, he did and he fell in love with MGMT. Sadly he got arrested, and now coming back to listen to this... truly breaks my heart.. oh how I wish we can be kids again
I liked the whole shirt dance thing. When he said "I want to make out with all of you", I didn't laugh, but when he continued to sing it.... I cracked up.
If you still haven't seen em, I'm sure you've heard of their tour! Tickets are selling out fast to most of their shows and I'm seeing them in Chicago :) so excited
What is the chance of this being on the new album? It could be "Plenty of Girls in the Sea" or "Cool Song No. 2". I know Andrew said it's called "Dancing on the Beach", but let me dream!
Sickness! I had a version of this that sounds much crappier from a live set. I think they've played this more than once cause my version sounds different. I hope they play it the next time I see them this summer!!
seeing them live in august!!! so excited. i doubt they will play this though.. and i really hope andrew is as lively and fun as he was in the old days.... lol
