Steven Drozd -- drums, vocals, guitars, other stuff Michael Ivins -- bass, vocals, guitars Ronald Jones -- guitars, effects, vocals, postal abuse Wayne Coyne -- vocals, guitars, philosophy, all the rest "I figured when I got done with the record, I'd have used up every idea I'd ever have." -Wayne Coyne Clouds Taste Metallic, the new album from The Flaming Lips on Warner Bros. Records, sounds like a big party in outer space, with two songs about astronauts, references to exploding brains, placebo headwounds, postal workers on fire, explorations with needles, loopy rhythms, cheesy NASA effects and that slightly off-center Flaming Lips "absolute sound." Wayne Coyne explains, "We hear so many records these days that are done with click tracks, as opposed to a dru More... (Submit New The Flaming Lips Lyrics) (Submit New The Flaming Lips Lyrics) Review about The Flaming Lips I'm Such a Sap | Reviewer: Megan ------ About the song Waitin' for a Superman performed by The Flaming Lips This song (The version by Iron and Wine) always makes me cry! It's one fo the only things that does anymore... It just gets to the 'It's too heavy for Superman' part and I start bawling for no adequately explored reason. xP 14 year old | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips I generally disagree with that statement of 200% positivity of 14 year olds not liking this song. Haha as I am 14 years old and have of the best taste in music. I despise radio tunes, and purely enjoy underground music over popularity. The Flaming Lips are an amazing band, and an amazing voice indeed. Its common sense that if you are not into the song or the band whatever the case may be that you stop listening to it, and leave us fans alone. Loss of words | Reviewer: Hawaii ------ About the song Do You Realize? performed by The Flaming Lips The thought of dying, something everyone lives through and yet, no one accepts. This song is an outstanding view point where I have to agree with Denver saying, "it only takes a moment to completley relieve ourselves of this world, how wonderful and easy is it to look at someone's face and see the ancient beauty embedded there." From a cousin's perspective | Reviewer: Kenny Goode ------ About the song Mr. Ambulance Driver performed by The Flaming Lips The song is especially haunting to me. Steven Drozd and I are cousins. Our mothers, both now deceased, were sisters and when I hear it, I can't help but think of all the tragedies in our mother's families - including that of a mutual cousin, Janice, who was killed in a vehicle crash years ago in Houston, Texas. You can feel the pain in the voices of the singer and the backup singers. Well.... | Reviewer: Ash ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips I actually took the time to read all comments before even honking about my opinion about someone elses. The flamming lips have been annoying 14 year olds for 2 decades. On that note listening to their early work shows that not only they can continue to create music, but also keep it current with what's on the top 40. Remember Brittany spears "toxic"? Or nine inch nails "(insert hit song here)"? Or how about bla bla bla bla bla bla bla. Oh and I like this song <-------- even the cyber ducks! attn: idiots | Reviewer: alec ------ About the song The W.A.N.D. performed by The Flaming Lips what wayne coyne said about lips songs in commercials was something to the effect of, "yer gonna have to see commercials and be bombarded with advertisements anyway. why not hear some good music as long as yer subjected to it? better than hearing shitty jingles." very lip-like. perfect | Reviewer: palyniam ------ About the song Do You Realize? performed by The Flaming Lips When I listen to this song it gives me a great sense of being alive, the words he sings about " Do You Realize - that everyone you know Someday will die -" is very hard hitting but very true, something people dont do much nowadays. Brilliant song free radical guy | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Free Radicals performed by The Flaming Lips i'm addicted to this song! i think it's about a person who changes suddenly when he starts to win money by doing something ilegal. it's a metaphor for how money changes you and how people with money think they're more radical than average I'm a fan | Reviewer: themightysteve@hotmail.com ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips The Yeah Yeah Yeah song is fantastic. At first glance it's a catchy tune- with the wonderful vocals of Mark Coyne melding into the instrumentals beautifully- which seems rather jolly when approached superficially (nothing wrong with that, why does music need to be profound?). However, on further listening, with a greater focus on the lyrics, it becomes apparent that Coyne is commenting on humanity's tendency to fulfill self-interest before anything else. Unveiling a dark critique of the human psyche, provoking cynical thoughts in the listener and leading them to contemplate this great flaw, which has plagued mankind since history began. The lyrics bring to mind that old proverb 'Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely'. The true beauty of this song in my opinion (after all, what's a review but opinion?) lies in the irony. Such a happy-go-lucky song being used to portray a dark aspect of mankind, is a wonderful method, one often utilised by The Flaming Lips. But it has to be asked - if the song wasn't so superficially happy, if it was as dark sounding as the message it conveys, would anyone read as deeply into this lyrical masterpiece? Eisnstein | Reviewer: B ------ About the song All We Have Is Now performed by The Flaming Lips I've always been a huge fan of the flaming lips and one day, me and my bf were watching a documentary on Einstein's general/special relativity. suddenly i felt like i understood what this song truly means (to me). the past, present and the future are all already there and all we could really do is to live "now." that's all we have. great song! <3 Flaming Lips are great | Reviewer: nervous ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips look people.. if you think it's annoying, then don't listen to it and stop complaining, it's not a big deal.. i happen to love everything about this song, and the flaming lips music in general.. that's just my taste.. if it's not yours, then go listen to something else.. Hmm | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The W.A.N.D. performed by The Flaming Lips I din't mind the dell commercial all that much, it was a pretty unique commercial. Plus I finally got ton show my friends some of their music, they are all pretty reluctant to listen to anything new. But the other commercials really ticked me off. great | Reviewer: oi oi stevie-boy ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips to everybody: i simply can not believe that several flaming lips fans (which most of the reviewers here are) have a need to try to prove a 14 year old that she's wrong. i am absolutely sure that 200% 14-year-olds would find this song to be anoying. they've got so much music to listen before they get to a state where they could understand the Lips. on the other hand, i have to say that this song represents the flaming lips in every way. it's a bit catchy, like many flaming's tunes. it's a bit anoying, like some parts of there songs. it has a message like most of their songs. it's definetly a great song to open the mystics album with. cheers. To the bottom reviewer: | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips Since when does all music have to sound the same? The Flaming Lips are great and can use whatever they damn like in their songs because they certainly have a knack for churning out some pretty good stuff. I love this song and think the lyrics are spot on. to that dude cyber ducks ahoy | Reviewer: matt ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips The Flaming Lips sing about the greed thats overtaking the world and that is the greatest message anyone can ever put into a song, short of putting the 19 and a half minutes of missing recordings from the Watergate tapes or the confession that there actually was a second gunman on the grassy knoll. As for the "annoying" noises, get over it. There the band with over a dozen albums. Kids these days. All of them are a bunch of self-riteous cunts. Commercial | Reviewer: Houston ------ About the song The W.A.N.D. performed by The Flaming Lips I was actually greatly disappointed when I heard several of their songs in commercials. I was turned on to the Lips about a year and a half ago by a friend, and have loved them ever since. Then I hear them on an outback steackhouse commercial which drove me insane since they just changed all of the words to the 'Yeah Yeah Yeah Song', then I heard it on a land rover commercial, not so angry at that, but still feeling like they weren't getting the credit they deserved. Just because they make awesome songs doesn't mean anyone has made an awesome enough commercial to use them on. memories that will last a life time... | Reviewer: peacer ------ About the song All We Have Is Now performed by The Flaming Lips this song is the best song to listen to when ur 17 smoking & drinking on a friends front porch at 2 o'clock in the morning as your all about to go you seperate ways...beautiful song Absolute power corrupts absolutely | Reviewer: Daniel ------ About the song The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song performed by The Flaming Lips This song is quite a good rebuttal of communism, fascism, socialism, tyranny, absolute monarchy, and dictatorsip. On the surface these can look pretty good, but in actuality they do not work, due to human nature. And I do like the strange eclectic sound of this band. Their songs are catchy, and oftentimes simple with a profound message. kiss on the lips | Reviewer: denver ------ About the song Do You Realize? performed by The Flaming Lips TFL! GODYES! reminding us it only takes a moment to completley relieve ourselves of this world, how wonderful and easy is it to look at someone's face (anyone's face really!) and see the ancient beauty embedded there. and how amazing that we are indeed floating in space...taking the time to remove yourself from yourself and look ,at everything on a much bigger scale, well that is just goddamn healthy if i do say so myself! Proof: | Reviewer: Michael Geer ------ About the song Do You Realize? performed by The Flaming Lips It is proof that moving on is important. The good things do last, in memory and we should only take that energy and supply it to what is RIGHT IN FRONT OF US. Often times we hardly think that "these hands in front of my face aren't going to be here someday" I embrace that realness of mortality which a lot of folks take for granted. I mean whom really wants to think about it right? The energy we have had to make wonderful moments is sometimes negated by missing someone... or something... we mustn't hold on soo tightly to the past or we will just become it.
