MGMT, inicialmente conocido como The Management, es una banda estadounidense de rock psicodélico y pop experimental formada en 2002 en Middletown, Connecticut. La agrupación fue creada por Andrew VanWyngarden y Ben Goldwasser, dos amigos universitarios que compartían una profunda pasión por la música y las artes. La conexión entre ambos surgió mientras estudiaban en la Universidad Wesleyan, donde comenzaron a experimentar con diferentes sonidos y conceptos musicales que finalmente desembocarían en lo que hoy conocemos como MGMT.
En 2007, MGMT lanzó su primer álbum de estudio "Oracular Spectacular", el cual fue producido por Dave Fridmann. Este trabajo discográfico los catapultó a la fama internacional con éxitos como “Kids”, “Electric Feel” y “Time to Pretend”. Estas canciones no solo definieron el sonido del álbum, sino que también establecieron a MGMT como una fuerza innovadora y distintiva en el panorama musical. "Oracular Spectacular" recibió la aclamación de la crítica y fue incluido en múltiples listas de mejores discos del año, consolidando a la banda como uno de los actos más prometedores de la década.
El segundo álbum de la banda, "Congratulations", fue lanzado en 2010 y se distinguió por su variación respecto al primer disco. En esta ocasión, MGMT optó por un sonido más complejo y experimental, alejándose un poco del pop accesible que caracterizaba a "Oracular Spectacular". A pesar de su naturaleza menos comercial, "Congratulations" ganó elogios de la crítica por su audacia y creatividad.

[Verse 1]
There's a place I'd like to go somewhere out west
It's not specific, and the pictures show it best
I know there's trees, I know there's sand, I know there's grass
I know it's somewhere in the past
And there's a girl out there who's looking for it too
She's not sure when she'll go or exactly what she'll do
If I am doomed am I the first one or the last?
Am I just someone from the past?
[Chorus 1]
No one has to hear
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And the ocean
And sun are always there
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
Of the darkness
[Verse 2]
If I ever saw a ghost, it'd change the way I think
I wouldn't gasp for air if ever I did sink
I wouldn't struggle, I'd just let it all out fast
And then start living in the past
[Chorus]
No one has to hear
If we hold the hand that raised the hand
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And everyone can feel the hand
And the ocean
And nothing's gonna change
And sun are always there
It could be the time we're living in
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
We'll never feel so safe again
Of the darkness
But love always remains
No one has to hear
If we hold the hand that raised the hand
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And everyone can feel the hand
And the ocean
And nothing's gonna change
And sun are always there
It could be the time we're living in
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
We'll never feel so safe again
Of the darkness
[Bridge]
Love always remains
Love always remains
Love always remains
Love always remains
Love always remains
Love always remains
No one has to hear
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And the ocean
Love always remains
And sun are always there
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
Of the darkness
Love always remains
No one has to hear
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And the ocean
Love always remains
And sun are always there
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
Of the darkness
Love always remains
No one has to hear
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And the ocean
[Chorus]
No one has to hear
If we hold the hand that raised the hand
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And everyone can feel the hand
And the ocean
And nothing's gonna change
And sun are always there
It could be the time we're living in
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
We'll never feel so safe again
Of the darkness
But love always remains
No one has to hear
The sound of people laughing at their fears
And the ocean
And sun are always there
To make you happy if you're feeling scared
Of the darkness
