MGMT apologise for new song
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 18 March 2010
MGMT have apparently apologised for ‘Flash Delerium’, which was made available as a free download last week and is the first song to be released from the duo’s second album, ‘Congratulations’, after the response to it was not entirely positive.
Ben Goldwasser told Spinner: “When we first wrote that song, we were laughing so hard. Andrew [VanWyngarden] just reminded me of that – that we thought it was the funniest thing we’d ever heard. And then we got used to it, it started to sound more normal. It’s not a single, but we thought it was a good way to entice people to listen to the whole record. I’m sure there are plenty of people who think it’s completely weird and not what they were expecting. I’m sorry”.
