Flaming Lips 2006 Acoustic Session

picture by Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips

I really wish I knew the origins of this Flaming Lips recording but all I currently know of it is that it was one long 30 minute track, most likely from a radio show this year (in France, late April maybe?) and features Wayne and Steven in the studio. I edited it down to what I thought was the most relevant parts of the show.

The Flaming Lips - Yeah Yeah Yeah Song (first take)

The "Hoe down and slow down" (I think I hear Steven Drodz in the background calling it that) version of the Yeah Yeah Yeah Song is a pretty good reworking of the At War With The Mystics track with a sadder tone, as explained by Wayne (see: sad version description). I wouldn't say better than the original but worth a listen for Lips fans.

On a related note: At War With Baraka!
