Lyrics:
Pine and feather, clove and ginger
Fire warm this winter eve
In the middle of this circle
Magic dreams on bonzai tree
Find one dream and sleep
Find one dream and sleep
In the middle of this circle
Magic dreams on bonzai tree
Find one dream and sleep
Find one dream and sleep.

I think the ... By: mkp823. on 17 Dec 11, 23:02:32 I think the comments were sarcastic. You can hear the audience? pleading "NO" when the conductor announced that they would play the funeral march. As if not playing it would change the awful reality.
What on EARTH are ... By: MuscleDaddyCMH. on 16 Dec 11, 03:18:11 What on EARTH are you talking about - of course there was live news. You can look at the footage right on here......I Was 10 at the time and we were? glued to the news.

There's nothing ... By: NostalgiaBob. on 29 Aug 11, 02:30:42 There's nothing remotely FUNNY about this at all. God, how insensitive. This recording brings the tragedy home as you can? actually hear the reaction at the time. So sad.

He said the vast majority of the audience were not aware of anything until the BSO stopped playing the Handel piece and Erich Leinsdorf making the shocking annoucement of President Kennedy being? assassinated. Many in the audience wept openly at the news.

Cool man. You write ... By: BruisedEyeSockets. on 23 Apr 11, 06:52:03 Cool man. You write music like you said, you enjoy yourself, and I'll listen to The Flaming Lips.?
I could write this ... By: Elastikid. on 03 Apr 11, 01:11:53 I could write this shit. This is so unoriginal compared to their earlier works. All it sounds like is some untalented people playing on untuned, whiny guitars and adding in some muddy synthesizer bullshit. Wayne Coyne sounds like he's piss drunk and they recorded his distant echo inside a cave. This is simply a shitty album. This is coming from someone who really liked their other stuff like Yoshimi, War With the? Mystics, and the Soft Bulletin.

Lyrics:
People are evil, it's true
But on the other side they can be gentle too
If they decide
But they don't always decide
We live on the impulses
Love is powerful
But not as powerful as evil
People are evil, it's true
But on the other side they can be gentle too
If they decide
They decide.
yes, people? are ... By: NativeGypsy217. on 13 Feb 12, 04:44:36 yes, people? are evil. we are all evil. we cant help it. but, there is good in us all. ya just gotta find it first.
Wayne Coyne does ... By: BrokenChair88. on 07 Jan 12, 01:32:00 Wayne Coyne does not sing on this? track. It's Steven Drozd.

Amazing Album but ... By: sarcasmagasm. on 21 Dec 10, 05:09:58 Amazing Album but this is definitely the weakest song on the album, Wayne Coyne should? not sing falsetto.

dude hate to tell ... By: skarocksemomom. on 20 Jul 10, 16:30:44 dude hate to tell you this, but theyre definitely truly EVIL EVIL EVIL people out there. they will take advantage of you male or female and they will take what they want from you if they? want something and you are off your turf. they aren't just tragically confused, they have a chemical imbalance in them known as LACK OF LOVE. someone hurt them and scarred them so now they are the ones who scar people.
People bring out ... By: Roberthenryii. on 29 Oct 09, 21:48:28 People bring out the evil in each other its a contagious domino rally. this is the best song on this? album.
Very profound and ... By: sydbarrett5. on 24 Oct 09, 12:32:24 Very profound and true. I don't think people are? evil though. I think we all just blindly make mistakes without full knowledge of how our actions affect others.
Lyrics:
Honey, you're just paranoid
You should do what you enjoy
No one is ever really powerless
That's what she said when she gave me a kiss
No one is ever really powerless
Nothing could no one could really is.

By: spacemanjoeb. on 13 Mar 11, 07:21:15 honey, youre just paranoid...lol...theres no Doors rip off here. this IS a powerful piece and def one of my favorites on this album (which is genius) and btw....thats Wayne on this excellent solo. Its not excellent in the way of skill but rather exicution. its perfect for this song. This is one of the most inovative bands on the? planet and deserve all the credit they get. making music for the future
Who would dislike ... By: krupafan8. on 18 Dec 10, 00:59:27 Who would dislike this video? My oh my, there are some perfidious people out there. Thanks for uploading; albeit I must say, I miss the lavish? orchestrations of "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots" and "The Soft Bulletin." Drozd was really composing some good material in those days. Nevertheless, it is always pleasant to listen to? some FLIPS.
After? listening to ... By: DerrickthePinecone. on 17 Oct 10, 05:07:48 After? listening to all of the tracks for the first time, I think that this one is my favorite of them all (at least, so far).
This album is brilliant, indeed!
This is the only ... By: DerrickthePinecone. on 17 Oct 10, 03:46:46 This is the only track that I've listened to twice, thus far, while going through all of the? tracks here. In fact, this is my first time listening to this album and I am absolutely blown away by how great it is. I thought, "Where've I been?!" I never imagined this album to be as dreamy, psychedelic and Krautrock-ish as it is, but oh how I was surprised in the best way possible.
While going through the tracks, I realize that this is only #9, too, which means (hooray!) 9 more to go!
It's psychedelic. ... By: DerrickthePinecone. on 17 Oct 10, 03:43:03 It's psychedelic. One isn't supposed to "get" anything.? It's like how some people always say, "I don't 'get' poetry." Well, poetry isn't supposed to be assessed, it's supposed to be lived in. I think that the same can be said for music, as well, especially of this sort.
What is the? album ... By: faeriesfoe. on 05 Oct 10, 21:42:45 What is the? album cover supposed to represent?
They did apparently ... By: TheLogicalEmotion. on 25 Jul 10, 03:20:50 They did apparently rip "Flight Test" off Cat Stevens' "Father and Son," so maybe some people? expect more of the same behavior. That said, I don't hear any of The Doors in this track, and I actually like "Flight Test" better than "Father and Son" anyway. If an artist "borrows" a tune from another artist, adds to it, and actually makes it better then it's ok with me.
Personally, this to ... By: NYRangersFANboy. on 10 Jul 10, 22:17:07 Personally, this to me sounds like it has no connection to any other song I've heard of. It doesn't sound anything like Riders On The Storm to me. Love this song from when I first heard it .... which was? earlier today XD
Epic, epic, epic!!! ... By: MetroidFan621. on 18 Jun 10, 19:29:23 Epic, epic, epic!!! I can not give this enough thumbs? up!

This is the first ... By: MeritCullen. on 23 Mar 11, 02:12:48 This is the first time that I've listened to these guys and I liked it... I don't know, it kind of reminds me to? a modern Pink Floyd, but maybe I should listen to more material before making my veredict...

It just makes you ... By: bearchildofdeath. on 02 Jan 11, 22:20:35 It just makes you respect music critics more - they have to work out if an album's going to be a grower after only a? few listens. You've gotta be pretty observant to work that out.

If you knew more? ... By: sparks59. on 08 Aug 10, 22:44:00 If you knew more? about the band you would know that without the band itself wayne would be nothing : / he's an amazing guy/frontman but he's not the musical genius of the band.
Do you by any ... By: kmacmuzikmafia27. on 29 Jul 10, 02:19:50 Do you by any chance like Gwen Stefani? This isn't a random troll question either, just your username made me ask, lol.
Either way? I agree with you, it took a while for me to love this album but i do now.

I know what you ... By: Phaleel. on 07 Jun 10, 16:45:19 I know what you mean here, but I just saw them? at Free Press SummerFest in Houston and it's extremely obvious they developed this album to improvise during concerts. Best concert I have ever seen, out of well over 100....

I completely agree. ... By: Aligon42. on 21 Feb 10, 19:43:48 I completely agree. First time through I was easily distracted and not particularly engrossed by the music. Now I can? completely lose myself in every track.

I like your style. ... By: gstefani10101. on 06 Jan 10, 20:01:05 I like your style. Is anyone else with me in that this is a "grower" album? I'm a pretty hardcore Flaming Lips fan and this album didn't impress me all that much my first time listening. As a matter of fact, I rarely listened to this the first few weeks I came into possession of this record. It definitely crept up on me. Now I can't stop listening? to it. I'm glad things worked out that way because it would really be a shame to miss out on this album.
