MGMT – Time to Pretend




Fan made video with footage from BBC Planet Earth Trailer and music from MGMT- Time to Pretend (Oracular Spectacular). Made for fun before official video was released. Thanks to everyone for the kind comments. Overwhelmed with the response. I’m Feelin rough I’m Feelin raw I’m in the prime of my life. Let’s make some music make some money find some models for wives. I’ll move to Paris, shoot some heroin and fuck with the stars. You man the island and the cocaine and the elegant cars. This is our decision to live fast and die young. We’ve got the vision, now let’s have some fun. Yeah it’s overwhelming, but what else can we do? Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute? Forget about our mothers and our friends. We were fated to pretend. I’ll miss the playgrounds and the animals and digging up worms. I’ll miss the comfort of my mother and the weight of the world. I’ll miss my sister, miss my father, miss my dog and my home. Yeah I’ll miss the boredom and the freedom and the time spent alone. But there is really nothing, nothing we can do. Love must be forgotten. Life can always start up anew. The models will have children, we’ll get a divorce, we’ll find some more models, Everything must run its course. We’ll choke on our vomit and that will be the end. We were fated to pretend. yeah yeah yeah

  6. @siekuhl exactly. its not actually about them wanting to be rockstars….i think the first part of it is more of them making fun of most rockstars and saying they are just in it for fame and drugs and women…they are saying they are doing it for the love they have for music, etc.

  7. @siekuhl no it doesnt butthole, i saw an interview and they said their music is simple and theyre tired of ppl trying to make a deeper meaning of it, stfu!

  8. @siekuhl It’s about them “pretending” that they’re rockstars, they said this on one video on youtube, I can’t remember what though…

  9. ( slide-it-in-me )……… Giving away 20 ipads and iphone4s to first 40 people! go here.. myhottspot…dot…com………… ( lover-girl, To keep the load protected? slide-it-in-me )

  11. I don’t think you people get that this song has a deeper meaning than the drugs… It’s about living life to the fullest and not follow into the same boring routined life.

  12. this is epic work~! <3 iT

  15. @InsainSpaceLad fagg stfu and give up who cares

  16. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAZING

  17. @InsainSpaceLad you’re an idiot.

  18. @HellEmbracer 1. The lyrics are about them pretending they’re rockstars.
    2. If they wanna use drugs let them.
    3. That isn’t condoning drugs, that’s letting them have their choice, look at Amsterdam, they don’t have a drug problem, and it’s legal over there.

  19. @InsainSpaceLad Don’t you understand that by visiting Justin Bieber’s video you get him even more views? Any publicity is good publicity..

    This makes me wanna hop a train heading ANYWHERE!

  21. this song….is the fucking shit.

  22. EVERYONE LISTEN UP

    descent Music Listeners, you rock

    On 28th NOVEMBER we will all be visiting Justin Biebers “One Time” video

    which has over 160 million views.

    On that day everyone must flag, leave a negative comment and dislike the video.

    Help us destroy this modern autotune music that has ruled the world. The goal is to make the dislike bar bigger than the like bar.

    Copy and paste this to good vids ANYTHING GOOD! Thumbs up this plan!
