***************************
When the Cotillion arrived
We threw out the television
Model D 575
Has custom flute presets
And Harmony-Plus in addition
Now for an arm and a leg
We get three half-dozen beats to choose from
So now we can pretend
That there’s an orchestra in the loungeroom
I put the Genie Bass on
So my left hand can play the choir
With 16ft Diapason
And Lowrey’s patented Orchestral Symphonizer
Banjo’s great on repeat
The kids want to play but they’ll have to be patient
The wife can’t help tapping her feet
It’s a genuine home entertainment revelation
State of the art
(Hold the phone, it’s so)
State of the art
[Listen to the difference!]
(Oh my god, it’s so)
State of the art
[By use of a computer]
State of the art
Now we don’t want to go out
When we could spend the night at home with the Cotillion
Invite the neighbours around
Start the bossanova beat and limbo from the living to the kitchen
Enjoy the state of the art
The Magic Swing Piano really is astounding
Now we can’t tell them apart
But these amazing simulations end up sounding even better than the real thing
State of the art
(Hold the phone, it’s so)
[Computer controlled tone colour]
State of the art
[The marriage of music to computers is quite natural]
(Oh my god, it’s so)
State of the art
[It is time to hear the results]

Im crazy about this song
You know he had fun making this song
when you are stoned, and you think about new inventions
Kids. This is what happenes when you buy an oversized evil looking keyboard from a op shop.
I love this song but the music video always gave me nightmares
Anyone else hear Kid A?

Excuse me wtf where’s the pizza?

Reminds me of when the cee lo hot tub takes over on American dad
Please Wally, if you're reading this. We need more Goyte material! You are one of the most unique and talented musicians ever. It's nearly 2019, make it your year!
"but these amazing simulations end up sounding even better ..than the real thing"XD ha ha so real
Essa e foda
This is seven years and coming and it's still a great piece. State of the art and Heart's a mess are always on repeat on my Gotye Playlist
This video used to scare the shit out of me when I was little but I love it now lmao
I think half of those views are from me?
Fun fact – Gotye recorded the vocals in monotone and manually keyed in each note change.
Don't like this comment.

Aaaasrgh i just love this song
I love this track so much
Wally/ Gotye! Make some real music 2019!!!! ?? Your the realest musician in this generation!
I love them in 2011 i was in love of this band 🙂 :3 good
This was the favorite song of my little sister for a long period of time, when she was 6 or 7. Everytime she was rolling on the floor laughing, everything in this song made her laugh actually
Wow, I want more. It's funny that at the end the entire family was assimilated and are now robotic. Gotye is so imaginative that it makes me wonder if he may have subliminal messages imbedded in his music, if played backwards would it be there? I think his music is so good it could be that he wouldn't even know it himself, ha.
0:47 It really annoys me how they didn't get rid of the television.
Only 60K likes.. So sad.
I feel space reggae vibe
I heard the song before seeing the official video, but what i was picturing when listening to it wasn’t far off what the official video looks like which kind of freaked me out abit
I got no idea How this song got on my computer But issa vibe forsure.
Ótimo som.. Valeu.
Can someone please explain this video to me?
Cool song but one of the weirdest videos I ever seen. Lol. Proof that Gotye is a fucking magician with that sound board tho. Thats fucking talent & art. Idc what you say
Our dumbed downed society can't appreciate true art. Requires too much thought. This is a masterpiece!
Anyone from 2019?
Still my favorite ringtone
