Miley Cyrus has made no secret of her obsession with the Flaming Lips: She’s invited the band onstage several times, recorded with them and even made a playlist of her favorite Lips tracks for Rolling Stone. “Once you listen to the them, it’s hard to listen to anything else,” she told us.
She’s such a big fan, in fact, that Cyrus recently filmed a video on her sick bed with them (she was hospitalized earlier this year for an allergic reaction to an antibiotic) for a trippy clip that frontman Wayne Coyne is calling “Blonde SuperFreak Steals the Magic Brain.” “This is the video we originally intended to be for a song that has a reference to the drug LSD,” says Coyne. “We were lucky enough to get a couple of hours with a bedridden Miley Cyrus. And even though she was still quite ill, she was full of laughs and great absurd suggestions.” The band also recruited Moby, who Coyne says “created an enduring, freaky character” at the musician’s Hollywood home.
