When you're a kid, you're just coming to grips with the scary things of the world. But your parents are totally used to it, jaded by it. Can be a lonely feeling as a kid.

[@foxkieran]

If it makes you feel better, there's a behind-the-scenes video where the kid is laughing and playing with the monsters.

[@filkaa]

Was disappointed after watching it

[@JohnDoe-kh6mt]

😂​@@filkaa

[@RoxyKandyKoRn55]

There is a fan made video of this song by MGMT-Kids, that the band really liked...The band even had the 2 people who made the fan made video, appear in the band's next video...How kool was that???🤗

[@MexicoHecho]

@@AsylumSaint are you referring to the one with face painting?

[@nicholasboatwright5407]

Think those were college students that did it for a art project of some sort

[@kirstentundrastar9477]

My brain just had a stroke.

[@maizomeno]

what?

[@holeephuck4421]

My takeaway from the video is since all he knows is his mom he sees everything else as scary and monsters but his neglectful mom is the real monster he just doesnt see it

[@tobiasfrost86]

I saw it as the same way

[@Nightmastercool97]

I saw it.

[@michaeloesterle6652]

Electric Feel by these guys is really cool, worth a listen.

[@42Mrgreenman]

Just a bit of extra info...the band actually formed under the name "The Management" and IIRC they used to play on their college campus and joke around acting like rock stars. (They didn't actually want to be famous) The story goes that when they would play and people would ask who they were, they would reply, "We're the management." but another group had the name already, so they shortened it to MGMT...

[@stephenmerasty1420]

Check out "Foster the people" and "Empire of the sun". Two bands around the same era of music. Both are great

[@Oscarbloopy]

I'm not gonna lie every time I watch the music video i start crying like a baby

[@philcollinslover56705]

same

[@brooksmoore7967]

I’m glad someone else is affected the same way. I can’t listen to this song without crying and although I have an idea why, I can’t exactly put my finger on it.

[@Oscarbloopy]

@@brooksmoore7967 for me it's the baby crying because he looks so scared even but then I remember it's just a music video.

[@jakeballou5147]

​@@brooksmoore7967The song is about school shootings. I think you're crying about the kids dying.

[@kempwood_foo]

When you're a child, your eyes and perception aren't used to the real world yet. It takes time for your vision and cognition to become corrupted by 'reality'. At first, children just see blobs and colors and maybe even psychedelic shit. You get used to your parents first, then everything else around you. I know this songs' meaning has a "humans are ruining this earth" message, but i interpret it as saying as we grow, we're innocent, but the world is shit and scary, so live your life with caution, don't bite off more than you can chew, and take care of the earth so your family and humans can live for generations to come (A family tree is impelled to continue long enough to have a past, ancestors that can then “haunt” it.)

[@timmygutter3142]

Apparently it's about autistic children

[@demoneIephant]

This album, Oracular Spectacular was on so many drugs 😂😂❤ such a good album

[@osirismaximus2787]

I saw this video when I was about 13. IT BROKE MY HEART, seeing that poor boy terrified by all that craziness. I hope they didn't traumatize him for life.

[@uoqy]

in the behind the scenes the kid was happy and playing with the monsters

[@1oconto]

Love your reactions! "Kids by MGMT works with every song" is great!

[@indade]

Weird?….yes but that funkadelic, electronica pop, synth, etc… is definitely their own mix. MGMT….try their other stuff.

[@TheChick24]

Love mgmt... check out Electric feel, it's a whole ass mood! Also time to pretend!

[@smuglef]

I hate that people only know these songs. To anyone seeing this , please listen to Future Reflections and Siberian Breaks

[@jackiechun_4205]

Time to pretend is my favorite mgmt song. That have a lot of good songs tho kids is second after time to pretend

[@jeffwright5768]

Super trippy but sooooo real. Not everyone sees the monsters. Love this one🍻

[@matthewrobinson317]

Time to Pretend & Electric feel!

[@jrlaz0001]

Societal ill's coming for you unattended kids. Protect children. We grow up to be consumed by the monsters we fear.

[@tristenschneider7634]

Chiddy bangs opposite of adults is the cover of this that’s also amazing worth checking out

[@emmanueljames9029]

@ 4:56..."human hand" 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@andyed.]

Unreal vid amazing

[@oliversilverstone-rogers2230]

They were more reacting to the music video than how good the actual song is

[@dj-um7el]

Fr

[@Theogvineofthedead]

Connecticut love we don't have many but we have some greats from our state lol. Psychedelic understanding is deeper than most can understand, and we start off understanding reality in a deeper sense, I think you are abke to experience this reality in a true way and it's nice to see the understanding

[@theofficialgreenkane9645]

Kids imaginations be like-

[@moremeepo]

Nice i love mgmt!! Ty, BRASILLL!

[@josephberg1586]

Michael Oesterle is right... Watch ELECTRIC FEEL by MGMT.. Great song and video. **Also, the baby in this video was not harmed, and didn't see "The Monsters" **

[@klauss1995]

More MGMT!

[@supernickdoeverything3728]

The monsters are just the kids vision because he don't know who all those people's are

[@Theogvineofthedead]

An 8th of mushrooms would help your understanding of this song haha ❤️❤️❤️

[@caseyurich9190]

Yeah, this music video is very controversial, for obvious reasons.

[@insertname193]

Hopefully this kid got some therapy, or at the very least ice cream, for what they put him through.

[@L0SHU]

Watch the bts of the music vid, the kid was hella happy while recording he video

[@gabrielbotsford791]

don't worry, watch the making of the video, the kid(s) was cool

[@glenndowling8383]

I thought this song was about soccer ⚽️

[@xanajak]

Wanna another song and video that's in the same vein as this? Laura by Scissor Sisters.

[@triumphiztation]

It would of been scarier if Biden did a Cameo in this video.

[@edwindesousafaria5267]

Good song

[@heezdeadjim]

A year late but I think many people missed a very real point. Many are interpreting the kid is seeing everyone as a scary monster and trying to find the one thing it knows as safe... which is his mother. However, notice how the mother is young, decked to the nines to look good and very careless and neglectful to her child. We vilify men all ofmthe time but there are mothers who have kids thinking it will bring them points for their family (whether they can be taken more seriously or her parents nagged her to have a kid) but then realize how much of z pain they are to take care of 24/7. It's cutting into her youth, her own time to have fun, and money that could be used for her elaborate lifestyle. I know parents that put their child diagonally behind them in a carseat so they can see the child and the child can see them if they get stressed. That mother clearly sees the child as a burden and the child will continue to believe this is how a mother is supposed to be.

[@quigongio5584]

Empire of the sun please

[@xanajak]

Amazing fucking song and video.

[@mattlawrence1932]

Legend has it that toddler is still in therapy sessions to this very day!!!!! That was low key child abuse LBVS 💯

[@VnV-Music]

hard drugs out there lol it's kinda pink floyd of 00'

[@alphaswydd]

Too bad you overlooked the song, it's pretty cool.

[@theresamendoza9143]

This is definitely a weird song and video I have never seen this before

[@romipatel9697]

Fifa boys🙁

[@ssia6938]

Love the song, HATE the video.

[@Sindamsc]

That's one if the best music videos ever. You just forgot how is it to be a child

[@darrylsmith5148]

Theirs more than mumble rap saprise

[@island5317]

Why must you hijack the work of other people

[@adamiwaniec3072]

how are they not gonna mention how cruel that is to the baby? that's years of therapy he's gonna need right there

[@3lement2010]

There's a behind the scenes video of the music video. The kid wasn't actually scared of the monsters.

[@nickwheeler5396]

Do research before acting like a Karen

[@JD43232]

7:20 ''Hotdogs'' is pedophile code for young boys. Also, the whole demon thing and child sacrifice hints throughout the video... Personally i think its disgusting, and worried because the band seems to be familiar with the hotdogs code wich is a big red flag. I always loved this song but i am very turned off by this all.

[@ShawnandMel4Life]

Wow JD182, thank you so much for informing us of this. This is truly sad 😞

[@d-pod_L]

Using your own logic... "worried because the band seems to be familiar with the hotdogs code wich is a big red flag." Should we be worried about you?

[@cangrejopendejo4909]

😂 Wtf is this nonsense?

[@L0SHU]

@@d-pod_L nah but fr you got a good point

[@jeremyrandbarnard]

@JD182 the video is meant to represent a child's view of the world. Everything is a monster other than the band until his mother shows up. Take your conspiracies somewhere else.
