[@samji_art]

very few musicians I know are as consistently tuneful, clever and funny as Stephin Merritt

[@lukescoma]

Amen brother

[@davidhorn2248]

And as heartbroken

[@mikogale]

i love his monologue in the beginning

[@malcolmhaynes2886]

Lovely song, well performed

[@tryharder75]

So beautiful

[@allaboutdatGDA]

This is at his most verbose, if I may stray towards the verboten. Thanks for the upload!
What a happy-go-lucky guy!

[@danielsatterberg6561]

This guy rivals Dylan

[@mj.l]

i love dylan, but stephin's output is better and more consistent imho

[@egmont5044]

@@mj.l Agreed. Merritt is more innovative than Dylan.

[@Shrimpy08]

@@egmont5044 also Dylan doesn’t put out 3 lp albums with all amazing songs

[@sinnvollproductions]

This is brilliant! Thanks for the upload! If you have the whole thing and could upload it (or anything else Magnetic Fields related) I might consider you a god.

G, D, C. How novel. Such a precious artist. Just ask him.

[@shastagulch]

that's not even remotely close to the chord progression. what are you talking about?

[@WilliamMullins]

I saw you almost go to a C instead of a D

[@johnboys4697]

He got better looking with the years a cuddly bear now😍

[@v-borges]

Anyone knows the song that plays at the very beggining?

[@russocanabill534]

"Walk on by" by Isaac Hayes. It's the opening song of Hot Buttered Soul; that album is a masterpiece. You should check it.

[@toopoable]

Not having a drummer wouldn't be a drawback if you could, you know, manage to maintain a tempo.

[@emmanuelgoldstein8233]

fuck tempos man

[@mikogale]

we don't believe in tempos here

[@bgilley8199]

Have you discovered music in the last 7 years by any chance?
