MGMT interview - Andrew and Ben (and Connan Mockasin) 

Every interview they look at each other when asked a question as if they have no idea what words are

Connan being in that phone the whole time was so comical. U forget he’s there and then he grunts and u his tiny face

They act like they're still the same age as they were when the electric feel song came out! That's precious and beautiful.. i love mgmt and connan mockasin ♡

Ben has just gone full Jeff golblum

I love how Andrew just can’t help himself from smiling and/or giggling when he looks down at Conan, such a beautiful human. MGMT is iconic they’re amazing artists

They’re still so cute omg

this is such an awkward interview i love it

why is Andrew so cute

10 seconds in and im already smiling at my screen like an idiot they're still as cute and wholesome as ever this mgmt revival takes me back to when i was 15 and now im almost 20 lmao crying we love talented kings

Okay but water that poor plant

I'm pretty sure they're actually aliens trolling the human race

I appreciate and respect them as musicians so much. They are great. I hope they don't take it the wrong way when loads of fans call them "attractive and cute" to me, their music comes first. Of course they're attractive....But every single album they've put out is golden in my opinion, Even self titled is underrated. They're so creative.

connan: h- andrew: aHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHSSHHAAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

Andrew hasn't aged in anyway shape or form

Andrew's smile every time Connan spoke is literally so heartwarming :)

At first I didn't realize what that little face was but when I realized it was Connan I lost it. Absolutely hilarious. It's adorable when they giggle at him

I used to think they were purposely being awkward in the beginning so they wouldn't HAVE to do the interviews but then I realised that's not the case they really are this awkward when being interviewed🤣

Andrew is just the cutest human I've ever seen

What I love the most is to this day after all the success they truly do seem the same as if they are oblivious to the changes that can be brought upon a person’s personality in the music industry. They still seem as though they’re the same down to earth low key people who are trying to make the music they truly want to hear, and it ends up resulting in a unique experience each time

Is it just me or does Andrew sound like Jake Gyllenhaal? (Not his singing voice but his speaking voice)

I feel bad their third album made them have doubt in themselves. It's their best album along with "Congratulations".

Andrew has been my dream man ever since I was 2012 and he’s STILL working it

When Andrew laughs I smile like crazily he’s SO cute

I met them back in 2011 and they've always been super chill, down to earth dudes. Really digging everything about the new album.

Seems like all their interviews they are always at the edge of just losing it laughing lol

Andrew is in his late 30's and still has the cutest baby voice 😫❤️❤️

Great seeing interviews with these guys. Always entertaining. Conan’s effect on Andrew is infectious.

It's nice to see Andrew and Ben doing interviews again. They seemed to kinda stop doing interviews the past few years. And it's cool to see that they haven't lost any of the charm and wit so prevalent in their early years. It's crazy to think the first album came out a full decade ago. Yet, they both seem to still be every bit the archetypal tricksters they were back then. I've always been a big fan of MGMT...mostly for the killer music. But I also just love who they are as people....two smart creative kind witty guys. I still can't get into their live show tho...I mean, there were a _few_ shows in the early years that were legit great, but when I saw them live in 2010 it was the most underwhelming thing I'd ever seen lol. Oh well...some bands are more "studio-centric" and some are total road bands. MGMT are absolutely more of a studio kind of band....and that's partly what I like about them. They're not born rock stars on stage....but they're geniuses at crafting surreal worlds of weird but insanely catchy psychedelic pop.

Fan girling so hard as if I was 15 again! So proud of you guys!

its a bit weird how they look at each other so much, they are like madly in love with each other but in a non gay way.

andrew so handsome

What a bunch of precious little souls

Damn, I wish I could have a friend who operated on the same vibe as me like they do.

"When you die" is one of the best songs from the album, definitely my favorite then "Hand it over" and then "TSLAMP"

I’m way younger than both Ben and Andrew but it’s so weird feeling as if I’ve seen them grow up like it’s weird seeing Andrew with short hair. Also his face changed but at the same time it didn’t? It’s just really strange, I remember seeing their Fuse interviews back then.

i respect them for saying that New Order and Depeche Mode inspired them to make Little Dark Age

Get them on the eric andre show

Andrew turned into Donnie Darko

Interesting nosy therapist approach to the interview lol

That sweater tho

Andrew is the purest human ever omg

Andrew doesn’t age wtf

Got pretty real about 10 min in. I guess my question if I was doing the interview would be “why is it just you and Ben in the studio where is the drummer, guitarist(and bongos!!!), and bass player?” 2.”why do you think people generally disliked congratulations when I personally feel like it was the best album ever?” 3.”why would you pick the 80’s to revive on this album as far as keyboard sounds?” Is it the pop hook sensibility that steered you that direction rather then reviving something I would like more....... like a genesis 70 s type prog style of mgmt keyboard sound? 4.”When you wrote congratulations when was it that you realized it was the greatest album ever and the whole world is stupid for not giving it 5stars straight across the boards of awesome-ness? 6.last question “will we ever see a return to moments of MGMT musically where we can feel some of the vibe of a “of moons birds and monsters” and a “future reflections” type of song on a new album? Can we get us some of that having progressed into your future reflections on album 5 please? Thanks for you time. There are plenty of girls in the sea. It has a cool transition. That was my fav moment of the last album. ✌️🙏👊🏻

I'm obsessed with Andrews smile

andrew still really cute

Now we'll never know the end of Connan's storyyyy aghhh

These guys need to be on a podcast telling their story. I know their music but nothing about them.

0:10 in love omg 😍

these guys always act so spacey in interviews it must like an out of body experience type thing because they write such brilliant music, seems like when the curtains are drawn these guys get focused by something, yet i already disagree with myself because they have just explained the lack of inspirations they have had making this record. must get old after a while i guess, they aren't acting like typical ego centered rock stars. very conscious people. probably can't work under contract. but i waited so long for this album, been listening to it on repeat, now i can already sense myself getting anxious for their next album. thanks for sharing your art with the world gang. wish i could jam with ya wonderful folks!

Andrew still got it all these years later 🖤

Funny way to conduct a interview. Andrew can wear anything and look hot!

No Shout out to the Cure when asked for 80's Influences. C'mon. Best album of 2018. Thank you!

Эндрю в течение всего интервью пытается оторвать себе нижнюю губу.

Connan saying hi at the beginning is the funniest thing i've seen in quite a while 😂

That was lame to interrupt Connan at 11:40 about running out of time. Let the guests speak...

interviews with Andrew and Ben are always exquisite

Lol I thought it sounded like two different albums but I like that. Kinda like how some Beatles albums melded so much shit together into an album.

Andrew laughed in the beginning because the interviewer's accent is so harsh he couldn't understand what he first said. he just understood how are you feeling hahahaha

interesting to hear they wrote me and michael after little dark age. those were my two favorite songs on the record. wonder if they have demos of other songs written in the time same frame with a similar sound

most journalists must hate and fear intervieviewing MGMT ;D

I love you mgmt I missed you so much and I love you Andrew! cute as ever

I totally understand why he is laughing, I would pee myself quite honestly 😄

ben got better with age

I hope after hearing Virtue from The Voidz that Ben and Andrew decide to go even further down the rabbit hole for album 5. Congratulations and MGMT are their best and most provocative works.

These guys do awesome interviews. Although they don't seem to love it, they dive deep to uniquely communicate each time. Always interesting. Thank you.

7:28 Bruh I was doing the same thing with my hand then realized andrew was doing it lol

I feel like ben always tells Andrew before every interview: hey man listen you’re going to do the whole talk, im just gonna stand there and back you up”

Andrew had a Job like quality from The Office

Andrew will always be bae

Great Interview! You can see how much Andrew loves his friend Connan! Really lovely! :)

Love the interview, always the best on this channel

I cant believe myself. I've been listening to them since 2009. I watched all their music videos but never botbered to look at piictures of them nor watch interviews. Now i cant stop. And obviously i am in love with Andrew. I'm 30 years old. I havent had a "celebrity crush" since...god...i dont even know. What the hell. MGMT is indescribable, one of a kind. And i am stoked they are still here. But oracular spectacular is still my fav...

I need more recent interviews! Ive loved following these guys all these years!! 💜💜 btw blue feather are great! Lets funk tonight 🔥🔥

This interviewer is asking the same question over and over it seems.

I like those guys, but you easily can tell they don’t like interviews

they carried this interviewer so hard

Conan’s constant smile and posture looking cramped up in that phone makes it 10x funnier

All the artists I've been impressed by in recent years: Connan Mockasin, Sebastian Tellier... I'm not surprised.

I knew I heard an Ariel pink influence! Especially on “hand it over”

Do these guys age??

oh god. i cant breathe

of course they were influenced by the talking heads

The harpsichord comment around 4:30 LMAO dead xxx

Ariel Pink makes my head go round and round.

Oh no, they started to see other people! They're gonna split!

lol connan at the bottom

Wooow i'm watching this with 69.420 views

I was ready for Congrats, haven't heard anything since, but I don't think that's a bad thing. I hated Congrats on first listen. I'm a decade older and it's so good. I'm not a hipster, I don't smoke weed anymore, and I don't do psychs anymore. Such a good album. I was young and dumb. I'd be curious where Andrew and Ben actually would say to listen to next.

I love connan so much

Is it weird I thought about "When You Die" as soon as he said they collabed with Ariel Pink? 😂

wtf? this guy like asks them a question. they answer it. then he asks it again? is he listening to their answers? god i wish so bad i could make music with these guys.

This is almost a perfect split screen. More like 40/60 though.

Amazing interview

Loving the new album.

of course they like talking heads and new order! i’m glad❤️

Blue feather is the bomb.com Let’s Funk Tonight is a banger.

Connan Mockasin and mgmt have interlocking energies

thank you for posting this ! :)

damn ben, i see that grey hair man! getting older mate xd

Please....water the plant!
