I don't think they're trying to justify it. I think they're just explaining their creative process. It comes off as justifying under the circumstances, but I don't think they really give much of a shit.

Well the way they were like "We first recorded it...thought it was f*cking hilarious...and eventually warmed up to it", seems to me like they're trying to say, "We know it's weird, but you kinda just have to take it as it is."

I think the "apology" is awesome. Hey, it's not like it's gonna be a single (but hopefully this topic stays open). I take it as a message saying "we're not just gonna do what 'worked' first time around again".
I had another song of theirs randomly shuffle on: "The Handshake". I totally "got" it this time. Maybe I just have to take their album(s) one song at a time.

I played the hell out of that whole album, but it was worth it.

I'm wondering why this isn't in the top 50 yet, as BDS listed this with a +121 bullet last week.

What the hell is up with these detractors? I loved it immediately. It's not entirely removed from the debut, but I think the band doesn't really want to re-hash what they did on the debut album. If that's a weak or disappointing song, maybe I'll resume the idea of checking the album out. I listened to the song this weekend; otherwise I maybe could have streamed some of the album already.

Not a great single, but works well in the context of the album. I'm right there with WotUNeed in being surprised at just how 60's it is.

I have to applaud MGMT's label with the speed and accuracy with which they've removed pretty much every trace of the album leak from the internet.
