“I wanna tell everyone I know ‘I love you.’” I adore how this band can imbue such simple words with so much meaning. Wanting to shout your love for one person for the whole world to hear, or to have fallen a little bit in love with everyone you’ve ever met. A dream collab that didn’t disappoint, Friday can’t come fast enough!

This so reminds me of my youth (Cindy Lauper, Thompson Twins, etc) ... 1987'ish and I absolutely love that artist like @MGMT and Christine haven't abandoned New Wave.

Verse 1: Andrew VanWyngarden, Christine and the Queens, Both] Out on the street The real heads try to keep it low Saw you move to the beat and I was blown away That's all you need to know Maybe I mistook pure distraction For a flash of love [Chorus: Andrew VanWyngarden, Christine and the Queens, Both] I wanna clear the air by Monday If all the tanks are gone And when it settles down, I wonder If I'll like what we've done You know we just started We're proud-hearted like fish in the lobby Dead and gone, dancing in Babylon Verse 2: Andrew VanWyngarden & Christine and the Queens] Two ships in the night Quietly signaling from the bow Don't you miss feeling like you could run away And nobody had to know? When your time is up, call the captain Tell him to let mе off [Chorus: Andrew VanWyngarden & Christine and the Queens, Christine and the Queens] Don't rush me (Don't rush me) I don't wanna be thinking about this stuff You hurt mе and I run to you Is that the big idea? You know we just started We're proud-hearted like fish in the lobby Dead and gone, dancing in Babylon [Bridge: Andrew VanWyngarden, Christine and the Queens, Both] I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" I wanna touch the scars and break the chains That hold you But I won't stop 'Til the sun dips down [Outro: Both, Andrew VanWyngarden, Christine and the Queens] I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" (Dancing in Babylon) I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" (Dancing in Babylon) I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" (We're dancing in Babylon) I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you" (Dancing in Babylon) I wanna tell everyone I've loved "I love you, I do" I wanna tell everyone I know "I love you, I love you, I love you I love you, I love you" (I wanna tell everyone I know) "I love you, I love you, I love you"

One of my favourite MGMT songs, just beautiful production and performance.

Chris is a phenomenal and gifted artist something we haven't seen in a long time

Extremely good song with fantastic writing. I only hope it wont clash with the rest of the album because the tone seems pretty different from the rest of the previews but I guess we'll know soon!

MGMT so gifted all they have to do is fk around in the studio and it turns out something that’s interesting enough. Does that make sense? Feels like that’s their process - fk around and find a sound.

I love that real life couple Julian and Adam are in this. They are so adorable in this. Plus Christine joining in this with their stellar moves makes me love this music video even more!!! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Certified to 80’s authenticity, love the collab.

In the latest auditory odyssey unleashed by MGMT, "Dancing In Babylon," featuring the ethereal sonic textures of Christine and the Queens, we are plunged into an existential dance floor, one that oscillates between the realms of the Babylonian discotheques of yore and the pulsating heart of contemporary existential musings. The track, a veritable cornucopia of synth-laden reverberations, invites listeners into a labyrinth of introspection, wherein the ostensibly simple proclamation, “I wanna tell everyone I know ‘I love you,’” transforms into a profound philosophical quandary. This phrase, deceptively straightforward in its composition, unravels like a cosmic thread, weaving through the fabric of our collective consciousness. It prompts one to ponder, with a hint of ironic detachment, the absurdity of expressing a sentiment as universal yet as uniquely personal as love, in an era where such declarations are often lost in the digital ether. MGMT, in their quintessential style, has not merely written a song; they have crafted an existential echo chamber, reflecting the myriad ways in which love, in its most unadulterated form, can transcend the boundaries of time, space, and even irony. The collaboration with Christine and the Queens elevates this track into a sublime dialogue between two entities, each exploring the nuances of love, longing, and the human condition, all while dancing on the precipice of the ancient city of Babylon. This partnership, akin to the joining of two astral bodies in a celestial dance, encapsulates the paradox of seeking a connection in a disconnected world, and the beauty of finding it in the least expected places. As Friday approaches, with the fervor of a zealot awaiting the eschaton, one cannot help but reflect on the irony of eagerly anticipating the end of the week to immerse oneself in a song that contemplates eternity. MGMT and Christine and the Queens have not merely created a soundtrack for the weekend; they have bestowed upon us a sonic elixir, capable of invoking a collective yearning for a love that is both a whisper and a scream, echoing across the Babylonian night sky.

This is glorious.

I heard this song when it premiered before this video came out and WOW. The video really embraces the message of the song and makes it that much more powerful. Wonderful work! I’m so excited for this album ❤

"I wanna tell everyone I know, I love you." This part at the end is where I cried. As a closeted bi guy, I also want to tell the world who I love. But the fear of judgement and worse reactions always holds me back. I relate to those two characters in the video. They can only have love in the video game. But will it also be possible in the real world? That faint smile at the end from one of the players seems to hold that hope. And I think that's what the video wants to impart with us. Hope. Thank you so much MGMT for that wonderful music ❤

All backgrounds and ethnicities and his band, Wendy and Lisa were his gay band mates that he openly championed in the 80s. He would dress provocative and gender fluid throughout most his career(I think half for publicity and half bc he actually enjoyed it).
