Lucidity (song)

[3] The second verse is half the length of the first one, and a short guitar solo in the A major scale comes in on the words "float away".

[4] The bridge fizzles out, then it switches back to the A major key, and a scorching fuzz guitar solo over the verse chords and rhythm comes in, with heavy unison bends and whammy bar vibrato.

The lyrics and vocals weren't recorded until the mixing stage of the album in December 2009, at Dave Fridmann's Tarbox Road Studio in Cassadaga, New York, which Parker later recalled: "I was thinking, 'We're going to be mixing this song in the next six hours'.

The video was filmed with a camera attached to a weather balloon outside of Mildura in Victoria, Australia.

The camera then comes crashing down back to Earth during the fuzz guitar solo section of the song.

[4] Despite the fact that the band is only seen for a couple of seconds, the director got Tame Impala to mime the whole song.
