The Flaming Lips Chocolate Hearts Contain a USB of Love Songs
Tia Clarke — February 5, 2013 — Marketing
These Flaming Lips Chocolate Hearts contain a sweet romantic surprise -- a USB filled with covers of classic love songs by Wayne Coyne and his bunch of merry madmen. The collection entitled Songs of Love contains Beatles cover, All You Need Is Love featuring Alex and Jade of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
The gruesome, yet romantic hearts were made by Dallas-based chocolatier 'Dude, Sweet Chocolate.' Each of the special handmade boxes is signed by Wayne Coyne and Steven Drozd.
The Flaming Lips Chocolate Hearts are the perfect gift for other halves who love to listen to alternative rock. Not only are the songs contained amazing -- the chocolate is pretty sharp too: "72% South American dark chocolate studded with hazelnut mini whoppers and waffle cone crunch."
