MP3: The Flaming Lips & Erykah Badu feat Siri – ‘Now I Understand’
Posted In Alternative,Experimental,New Music by Toasty
Oklahoma rockers, The Flaming Lips mentioned talks of pairing with Ms Badu last week. Now lead singer Wayne Coyne unleashes on his Soundcloud a three minute sample of what to expect.
Biz Markie backwards (!), plus the sweet vocals of the soulstress Erykah Badu are the ingredients to make subtle sensual iPhone music together. And surprising guest appearance by Apple’s very own Siri. Yep – the intelligent software personal assistant – THAT Siri. Wayne mentions as he posts up the song that “Life is beautiful. Music gets you high”. What do you think, beautiful or just freaky?
With that line up, not sure what else to expect from the whole project which is due for a Record Store Day release. Listen below. Am I wrong for liking this?
wow, this is one weird track, I was expecting fire, explosions and funk…I don't know haha
It’s definitely different! lol
