MGMT Teach "Art Is Everywhere" On Yo Gabba Gabba!
Last year we told you MGMT were set to appear on season two of Nickelodeon's Yo Gabba Gabba! as space Vikings performing a song called "Art Is Everywhere." We weren't lying, but it took some time to track down the footage via an obscurely tagged YouTube clip ("Russian Rugrats") uploaded this summer. Some would argue that MGMT basically always make children's music. Whatever your stance, they definitely look comfortable (and stoned?) piloting their avian longboat and making like Abstract Expressionists.
"Art Is Everywhere" doesn't appear on the the new Yo Gabba Gabba! Music Is Awesome! album:
01 "Yo Gabba Gabba! Theme"
02 "Party in My Tummy"
03 The Shins - "It's Okay, Try Again"
04 "I Like to Dance"
05 Money Mark - "Robo Dancing"
06 "Get The Sillies Out"
07 Biz Markie - "Biz's Beat of the Day #1"
08 Chromeo - "Nice 'N' Clean"
09 "Try It, You'll Like It"
10 The Roots - "Lovely, Love My Family"
11 "Don't Be Afraid"
12 I'm From Barcelona - "Just Because It's Different Doesn't Mean Scary"
13 "Bubbles"
14 of Montreal - "Brush Brush Brush"
15 "Nice & Easy"
16 The Little Ones - "Hey, Won't Somebody Come and Play"
17 Weird Science - "Go Crazy Remix"
18 Yo Dazzlers - "You Can't Always Get What You Want"
19 Mark Kozelek - "Bedtime Lullaby"
20 "Goodbye Song"
21 "Yo Gabba Gabba! Closing Theme"
Yo Gabba Gabba! Music Is Awesome! is out 10/20 via Filter. There'll also be a Deluxe Edition with bonus tracks, so perhaps MGMT will show up there.
