I was listening to this from a small hi-fi in the bathroom at 3:00am in rural South India over a hole in the ground while having the most horrific diarrhea of my life. Many questions came to mind when I first heard this - mainly why God had cursed my gastrointestinal system to such a horrid degree. Also, I wondered how a DJ in the middle of nowhere in South India had come upon Father John Misty and bestowed their lovely sounds upon me.
This music video makes a lot of sense to me. She came into his life and changed who he was as a person, when she saw him new and improved with other people it drove her crazy and in the end they're pulled towards each other again.
Nah. She's insecure af and used this dominatrix bit to make herself feel worthy of him/every emotional power over him. You see eat the end he's fantasizing about the blond from the bar when he's in bed with his wife (after having fetched coffee for her.)
Only when you got a gf you get plenty chances of others. When you aint its a joke. Regret i never cheated on ex and kept options open:) Sad but true as fuck. Jelous. Come back. BS
@@baronvoncrags771 I think the video mirrors the song lyrics. In the song, he uses alcohol to escape his pain as well as to punish himself. It's not serving him well anymore and he knows it, but he always comes back to it searching for the feeling it gave him in the beginning before it took over his life. That feeling of comfort and warmth. In the video, the alcohol is mirrored by his relationship with a controlling woman. He gives himself completely over to her, he wants to lose control. He has moments of clarity where he knows what's happening and he regrets it, and sees how toxic things have become. He considers going down a different, healthier path. But in the end, he goes back seeking the comfort of what he knows, and maybe with the hope that this time will be different. This time things won't go too far. The callouses on his feet show how many times he has run away, only to end up in the same spot.
I was looking for somebody like this in 2003 when I got swept up in evangelical Christian mini churches at 18. I was still the black sheep questioning certain ideals. Loving God and still not connecting with those people. I definitely feel a realness and heart that those that surrounded me claimed they had.
Lyrics Oh, pour me another drink And punch me in the face You can call me Nancy Every man wears a symbol And I know I have mine I've got my right hand stamped In the concentration camp Where my organs scream "Slow down, man!" Ooh, how was I to know Milk and honey flowed Just a couple states below? Ooh Oh, hook me up to the tank And roll me to the door I'm going where my body leads me I can fend for myself With what looks I have left I'll put away a few And pretty soon I'll be breaking things like Howard Hughes Ooh, how was I to know Milk and honey flowed Just a couple states below? Ooh, give me how it was Our place under the sun Before the devil made me run "Run, boy" "Run, boy" Ooh
ever since a good friend of mine introduced me to the music of father John Misty I have been listening to this song and a few others every day. love this one in particular. amazing artist!
This song and video are proving that music needs sometimes words...I mean a philosophy and ideas, thoughts and dillemas which are common for all of us. I must say perfect combination of words, music and video material. Envy.....
Oh, pour me another drink And punch me in the face You can call me Nancy Every man wears a symbol And I know I have mine I've got my right hand stamped In the concentration camp where my organs scream "slow down, man" Ooh, flowers and bows Milk and honey flow Just a couple states below Ooh Oh, hook me up to the tank And roll me to the door I'm going where my body leads me I can fend for myself With what looks I have left I'll put away a few And pretty soon I'll be breaking things I have of you Ooh, flowers and bows Milk and honey flow Just a couple states below Ooh, give me how it was A place under the sun Before the devil made me run Run boy, run boy Oohp
When i see this video it reminds me of the lyrics of Chateau Lobby, 2:09 "First time, you let me stay the night despite your own rules You took off early to go cheat your way through film school You left a note in your perfect script: "Stay as long as you want" I haven’t left your bed since"
I think a lot of people in the comments are missing the fact that in the video he doesnt want any of this. She changed him into her image of what he should be. She controls his life behind closed doors and I think he wishes for the scene at the end where they both seem equal and peaceful. Where power isn't a factor.
I fuckin love this song, this man after my own heart is singing my life before my very ears. I love all your music! beautifully relevant and so light heartedly dire. keep on making your soul known man, not enough people know how to any more without making people do something first.
Every song by FJM that I've heard (I just recently discovered him, thanks UA-cam recommendation!) is stuck in my head, all day, every day. With The Hollies "The Air that I Breathe" thrown in. I'm wondering if I could benefit from therapy or perhaps just enjoy the voices/songs in my head.
I was startled to read this comment. I also get "The Air That I Breathe" stuck in my head. I wonder if we've ever listened to it in our heads at the same time?
I saw an interview where he said he was crying on his 22nd birthday because the beach boys had released Pet Sounds when one of them was 22 and he felt like he hadn't accomplished enough.
This guy has such a beautiful voice. It's really hard for me to explain why. And sadly there's a lot of songs of his that I don't like that much, but his voice is so deep.
@manasigodbole1399 isn't it like that with every music artist? There is no single record where I like most of the songs. For FJM, it's chateau lobby, real love baby, Hollywood forever cemetery, and this song.
ohhhhh, this song's gained so much hits!! when i saw this video last year, it only got ten thousands something, and nw the number has increased so much. Glad that other also likes this song!
Ah, to be young again & feel the sting of unrequited love. Wait, what, where am I; this is not my beautiful life. Wait, dude, at Lost Trail last Friday, the sun was shining and the powder was bitchin'. Wait, Is John Misty in Lord Huron? Wait,
This new persona for J Tillman is really working for him, the music and the themes feel utterly new and as refreshing as the waters of lake minnetonka.
Tim Porter Thank you - I was trying to figure out who this reminded me of. I love this musically; the video sure is strange, and I'd only simply heard the song when a group of friends and I googled it and this video came up! (I wonder what they think of me now - not that it matters a whole lot....)
This has the GREATEST opening line of any song recently, INCLUDING Antony and the Johnson's 'My lady story'. I challenge anyone to think of a better one.

You are loved by at least one person on this planet.

Haha, brilliant.

I'm beginning to think this man has nothing to do with the clergy.
Blasphemy!
Well unless you forgot about the Catholic Church.

“Oh, pour me another drink and punch me in the face” - Father John Misty describing my mood at all times
Probably not really
Soml
I like this when it comes up on playlist in my car. It feels like the car is about to take flight when the chorus comes in.
I can also attest to this.
Love this comment
All of Father John Misty's songs are oddly romantic in tone, but anything but in lyrics. I love it.
🤔
he learned that from Robin
I don't know what it is about this song, but I feel like I've known it my whole life. It's an absolutely gorgeous composition.
I am officially in love with Father John Misty, his voice, his intellect and everything else about him.
Same
10 years later, I'm still in love with him and his wife Emma (featured in this video!).
@@manasigodbole1399same here!
That chorus is so damn beautiful.
One of the best songs I've heard in a very long time
Father/Nancy/Sir, please don't stop doing what you're doing.
This music video makes a lot of sense to me. She came into his life and changed who he was as a person, when she saw him new and improved with other people it drove her crazy and in the end they're pulled towards each other again.
Camas Myers you nailed it sweet heart
That's pry true, but I see it more about how ,even tho she dominates dudes, she still wants a good man, like any other woman.
Nah. She's insecure af and used this dominatrix bit to make herself feel worthy of him/every emotional power over him.
You see eat the end he's fantasizing about the blond from the bar when he's in bed with his wife (after having fetched coffee for her.)
Only when you got a gf you get plenty chances of others. When you aint its a joke. Regret i never cheated on ex and kept options open:)
Sad but true as fuck. Jelous. Come back. BS

Lol sometimes I miss being in love
I hear ya there
Word. Not worth the solid 90% of bullshit but man, that 10 percent
Also here to say that yes I hear ya there.
Ha, I never thought I'd admit it, but I do too.
@@SrDeMaFp hear hear ✊🏼
well shit i listened to this song a hundred times before watching the video and my mind definitely didnt go there
Sub Pop is one of my favorite record labels ever. Such good music.
its a genre
nah sub pop is the record label. They used to produce Earth's records in the early 90's and still have great stuff like lucluc and father john here.
Luluc is amazing
@@tommyvercetti6035 I didn’t expect Father John Misty and Beach House to be on the same label as Earth. Pretty cool
love this video, love this song. still one of my favorite songs he has ever written. timeless
more than a year listening to this song and I can't get it out from my head neither from my heart... many memories, many many of them
Quiero saber de ti, dime donde estas!!!
Sabia que por esta cancion te tenia que encontrar en alguna parte
Por favor escribeme
Hey dude, don't let me hanging. Did you get in contact with Erika?!!! The thrill is killing me.
i know right!
Lyrics
Oh, pour me another drink
And punch me in the face
You can call me Nancy
Every man wears a symbol
And I know I have mine
I've got my right hand stamped
In the concentration camp
Where my organs scream
"Slow down, man!"
Ooh, how was I to know
Milk and honey flowed
Just a couple states below?
Ooh
Oh, hook me up to the tank
And roll me to the door
I'm going where my body leads me
I can fend for myself
With what looks I have left
I'll put away a few
And pretty soon I'll be breaking things like Howard Hughes
Ooh, how was I to know
Milk and honey flowed
Just a couple states below?
Ooh, give me how it was
Our place under the sun
Before the devil made me run
"Run, boy"
"Run, boy"
Ooh
saw him open for The Walkmen this tour.been a huge fan since.what a stud.
My new found favorite ❤. The gems we hear and see on the internet. Love it 👍👍😉
Wow, my daughter was right. It was sound a bit like something from the 70's. Nice.
This dude really likes his wife.
+TheDeftZeppelin Can you blame him?
+TheDeftZeppelin That or it's a light-hearted comment on the feminizing of men and the masculinizing of women in this country.
+chippety pop You just don't get it
+chippety pop fem. triggered alert
this wife really likes his dude
ever since a good friend of mine introduced me to the music of father John Misty I have been listening to this song and a few others every day. love this one in particular. amazing artist!
+renee knockeart He wants to be more than friends!
+Brizzio Pp nahh, if so he would tell me straight up, he's honest and not one to hide things.
How the hell could I gone this long without knowing this music exist 😒😒😒
this song was my anthem this year. i’ve never felt so i tune with lyrics of a song
emma tillman is the babe to beat all babes
Ahh addiction... fuels such insanity, but makes for amazing art. Love FJM.

Oohp
This song is like poison to me. It kills my joy for living. It's soul crushing. And it's still one of my favorite things...
Just because you like it doesn't mean it's good for you.
This is a happy song though! It’s about him feeling that he can be free and vulnerable because he moved to California!
When i see this video it reminds me of the lyrics of Chateau Lobby, 2:09 "First time, you let me stay the night despite your own rules
You took off early to go cheat your way through film school
You left a note in your perfect script: "Stay as long as you want"
I haven’t left your bed since"
xxx
Just look at all these beautiful, fleshy young people. So earnest and self absorbed. I love it
This song gave me wings.
????
Dave Hak red bull song
SlayerProRR which commercial?
Excellent video with a pleasant display. Thank you for the effort that you put into building this.
"Pretty soon, I'll be breaking things like Howard Hughes"
I hear this everytime, and it's better than the actual lyric
From now on, I'll never hear anything else
Those are the lyrics tho. According to spotify n lyrics genius
@@charlonova that's what he says
I head Howard Hughes....some lyrics say different.
Fast becoming one of the great songwriters. Love his stuff.
As a person named Nancy I was expecting more of my name in this song to fulfill my narcissistic needs.
Livi Guim and so you will remain a little disappointed.
But your name isn't Nancy.
Me too girl
Muthaaaa f. Saaaameeee 😆
Felt this
Love this,just fell straight in love with he's voice as so addictive,thank you Lana for showing this on twitter!
this is weird but it will be a song i want to hear on my wedding
Update?

This video made me cry. Thanks Emma

@@ahousefellonme it's a mysterious world we live in and it's quite possible. We were twinning!
Loved your performance of this song on Conan few years back.
Thank you for making this music, dude.
Heard this for the first time tonight.....love it!
Me fascino su estilo, taaaaaaan relajado, muy buen tema.
Yeah, it was at Osheaga. You're right. It was, his whole performance moved me.
perhaps the most beautiful sounding oohh ooh ooh oohhs there has ever been :)
Oh yeah. One hell of an experience. His stage presence is mindblowing.
This song reminds me of Kokomo by the Beach Boys if somebody spread a little As The World Falls Down by David Bowie all over it
I saw an interview where he said he was crying on his 22nd birthday because the beach boys had released Pet Sounds when one of them was 22 and he felt like he hadn't accomplished enough.
after listening to this for the first time yesterday, i can't stop listening to his music.
Wow, these guys are great
brilliant thank you very much
This album is going to be so good.
can confirm that it is
Dont know either of them....but it seems they deserve eachothers company...beauty and a flourishing...keeo doing what yr doing:)
This guy has such a beautiful voice. It's really hard for me to explain why.
And sadly there's a lot of songs of his that I don't like that much, but his voice is so deep.
exactly!
Agreed, the ones I don't like are so meh, but the ones I do like, I like with my whole body and heart. Wtf is up with that.
@manasigodbole1399 isn't it like that with every music artist? There is no single record where I like most of the songs.
For FJM, it's chateau lobby, real love baby, Hollywood forever cemetery, and this song.
Thank you Spotify.
this was badass live
was at their concert last night at the blue note ( Columbia, Missouri) and she came on stage and danced with J during the encore. it was incredible.
I was wondering why there was a crowd gathered around my desk when I came back from getting coffee. Hello Coworkers meet Father John haha
I had this song stuck in my head all day yesterday :)
i cried
ohhhhh, this song's gained so much hits!! when i saw this video last year, it only got ten thousands something, and nw the number has increased so much. Glad that other also likes this song!
look at it now :P
Soft femdom and the beautiful voice of FJM. What a lovely mixture that it is.
This song.... It speaks volumes.
Aw. Love is grand!
love to see Emma having fun and this is my favorite song as of late
WHAT A GREAT VID !!!!!
This his somebody can change your perspective of life as you know. Love change you Jhon Misty
Ah, to be young again & feel the sting of unrequited love.
Wait, what, where am I; this is not my beautiful life.
Wait, dude, at Lost Trail last Friday, the sun was shining and the powder was bitchin'.
Wait, Is John Misty in Lord Huron?
Wait,
Izzy Echeverio What are you talking about? You look like a baby. Stop getting all nostalgic, you're too young. You sound stupid.
Same here! Couldn't stop smiling, laughing and dancing while listening to this song.
this dude is a unique individual
this video and song will never get old for me
Reminds me of Harry Nilsson.
This new persona for J Tillman is really working for him, the music and the themes feel utterly new and as refreshing as the waters of lake minnetonka.
I think the woman playing the dominatrix is Josh's wife.
she is
Peyton Clifford damn she's hot
+BryStraw Thank you for the commentary.
Peyton Clifford who's John
Josh is Father John Misty's actual name. Josh Tillman.
Now this here is.....f&%king unbelievably talented, groovy tunes. Damn FJM. Damn.
Emma TIllman is very beautiful. Also, great song.
Thanks for posting. Also quite like the Father John Misty #WTF Podcast with Marc Maron.
He is so handsome
I thought this was released in the 60s or 70s until I looked it up on youtube lol. Very catchy tune.
theres something wonderfully Mike Nesmith about this...
Tim Porter Totally getting that too Tim.
Tim Porter Thank you - I was trying to figure out who this reminded me of. I love this musically; the video sure is strange, and I'd only simply heard the song when a group of friends and I googled it and this video came up! (I wonder what they think of me now - not that it matters a whole lot....)
This has the GREATEST opening line of any song recently, INCLUDING Antony and the Johnson's 'My lady story'.
I challenge anyone to think of a better one.
Not a big fan of the music video haha but this is easily one of my favorite songs all time!
yeah the video is a bit sadomasochistic
mine too remember me alot 70s
Can’t he afford a hooker without a chin rivaling that of Jay Leno?
This is how he became my pops. Father John Misty
Lol at jumping on the bed 0:50
i think this song has the prettiest chorus out of all of the songs there are
Recently found out this guy was a drummer from Fleet Foxes and I’ve been listen to him for 4 years wtf
And J.Tillman with tons of acoustic records prior....he completely abandoned that tho for his FJM 'character'
this is one of the best songs ever
I like the way he sing
I agree with you HylianSpirit. What fun to hear a great artist for the 1st time!
AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY CREO Q LO AMO
MIRA DONDE TE PILLO AJAJAJ
A brilliant throw back to Yacht rock. Smooth, VERY smooth. I think Coco would approve.
Think he maybe needed Fleet Foxes to keep him under the speed limit.
Gotta love the Roy Orbison vibe though ...........
Nice work. Very creative. Great Sound.
Amooo!!♥︎♥︎♥︎
there was no light at the end to turn off, john. just a woman in the morning to hold.
i'm jealous.
