Video of the day: I Want You – The Flaming Lips and Nels Cline

Flaming Lips + Nels Cline covers The Beatles’ I want You (She’s so heavy)

SEVENTEEN minutes and seven second version of The Beatles’ classic I Want You (She’s so heavy) with Nels Cline (Wilco) on guest-guitar. It is from their new-year show and professionally filmed, so maybe we can hope to see the whole show someday…

But I’m happy, this is seventeen minutes of heavenly collaborative droning, and it contains all of the elements we love from The Flaming Lips,  confetti, dancers and a really psychedelic light show, this is heavy!

Pretty great, eh? Nels Cline even wears a John Lennon slogan on his T-Shirt: “War is over” :)
