The Flaming Lips ft. Miley Cyrus & Moby - "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds"

The Flaming Lips have always been more than interesting and this is no different. Their cover of the Beatles' 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' album, 'With a Little Help from My Fwends' may upset some Beatles fans - but it's not a piss-take, it's just them being themselves. It's not completely new territory either, they did much the same thing with Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon.'

The song that stood out for me was "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and it was added to Bitter FM playlists straight away.

It is obvious that Miley Cyrus is trying to rid herself of her wholesome, good girl image, so it's a pity she didn't team up with the Flaming Lips earlier, all that effort, when this is all that was needed.

This is exactly why I love the Flaming Lips.... and their fwends. Fucking brilliant!
