LYRICS:
Another night on the straights
All bug-eyed and babbling
Out on the corner of 7th and A
“I’m in the business of living”
Yeah, that’s something I’d say
All I need is a new friend
I’m only five blocks away
Speak to me
Won’t you speak, sweet angel?
Don’t you remember me?
I was God’s favorite customer
Beware the man who has everything
Everything that he wants
You can spot him from a mile away in his gold chain and only one pair of socks
I’m out here testing the maxim
That all good things have to stop
The bar closes at five but the big man is just opening shop
Speak to me
(Won’t you speak to me?)
Won’t you speak, sweet angel?
Don’t you remember me?
(Don’t you remember me?)
I was God’s favorite customer
But now I’m in trouble
Speak to me
(Oh, speak to me)
Won’t you speak, sweet angel?
I need some company
(I need some company)
I swear just one more night longer

Weyes Blood's angelic vocals deserve more credit
@raisedfist80 weyes blood is doing the background vocals
They should switch roles tbh
:o
I had no idea it was her! Makes sense, it sounds beautiful...
I was looking for her name in the credits and didn't find it... Thanks for the confirmation !
Goddamn…What a song. What a video. What a guy.
Must be my 50th time watching it, and it still gets me 🥹
In a different time this song would have been #1 for a month straight.
he would be heralded
the 70's
That’s rose-tinted at absolute best. You just think underappreciated artists didn’t exist, but that’s just the internet not being a thing
straight facts.
@@wrigglenight93 You get it 👌🏻
Flying John Misty
1497nando nice
Zachary Krauss is it a plane???
Flying John Lotus, think of a collab between flying lotus and father john misty!
Zachary Krauss oh you mean literally I was going for the "it's a bird? It's a plane? No its Flying John Misty!" Phrase haha
RedPlayerOne I ship it 👍
This is my favorite FJM song. It got me through some incredibly tough times. Thanks Papa.
Same...
Same here my boy. Thanks Daddy John Misty
Agreed. Still is…
what I love about this song is how it’s coming from Weyes Blood and FJM, two people who were raised in very religious households. It gives the song subject so much dimension and humanity
Wow! I didn't think of that connection. That actually makes so much sense. I hope they collaborate again.
a@@Missjunebugfreak
weyes blood's backing vocals on the chorus, i love every collab she does
He is walking west on the East Village, NYC, on E 4th St, at dawn. He turns south on the corner with Bowery then flies away on the corner of Bowery and E 3rd St.
Weyes Blood's vocals on this track give me chills, every time I listen to it. Beautiful all around.
Best song on the album in my opinion.
Agreed
Matthew W true
Just dumb enough to try
Dissapointed diamonds
I really like this and Please Don’t Die
Who hurts your heart,
the Bruises on your face.
Oh, sweet angel taste the pain now.
The pressure on the top block voice tear while walking alone till the fine line makes him fall.
Another God best customer.
I have cried many times with this song.
good song fantastic backing vocals from weyes bIood one of the best singers of recent times i think IoI
The more I listen to the album the harder is it to decide which song I like the most. I love the simple beauty of this video, what a wonderful gift to receive on a Tuesday morning
You are loved. God bless
I like that he starts the video out at the corner of 7th and A like he sings in the song.
7th and 8th
No, it's 7th and A as in Avenue A.
How the hell are you going to be on the corner of two parallel streets?
Internet lyrics are wrong then.
The internet is wrong? MY GOD!
this song brings on the tears... FJM & WB together... those ghostly harmonies. beautiful & haunting.
I LOVE WALKING TO THIS SONG!!! ITS SUCH A TREAT!!! LOVE FATHER JOHN MISTY~!!!
to remember the first day we say 'hello'. so strange and beautiful. ❤
you are beautiful, and so is nabokov. please keep going. this is exactly what so many of us are feeling right now. love.
I swear he has the best music videos, they speak a lot, as well as the songs ❤️
He’s going back up to God’s store
‘Bar closes at 5, but the big man is just opening shop.’ Such a clever lyric
I don't get it, could you explain please :)
@@simmy1823 Well the way I see it is that the big man (God) has is customers come in (to heaven) at 5 in the morn - isn't there a phenomenon that people die in the early hours, when the day is just beginning - just like the video is set in the crepuscular light of dawn - God is just opening shop as the days ends/begins. It could also be read in another way that the big man is Josh himself - he is tall (1.88metres) and he admitted in the same verse that he is 'testing the maxim...' as if he's pushing himself to the limit to keep on surviving 'one more day' so maybe he's opening shop as in trying to continue his career/life/survival - however you want to read it.
Dude i just figured thats when the bar closed and the liquor store opened up
Gabe Somerville I think you’re right. I may have been high when I wrote all that.
@@gabesomerville7181 what liquor store opens at 5am? I need to know for research purposes.
Fav song off the album
Mr. and Mrs. Tillman, this is beyond fantastic. Well done.
Incredible song.
This is literally me listening to this song while walking down the streets of Gothenburg at night
If this is literally you then please explain how Father John Misty got the footage. Check and mate.
Alexandra Löfvenstråle you know how dad feels about malapropisms
they make him wanna fucking scream
I wonder if she even knows what that word meaaaans
well, it's literally not that
Best song in the album
I think that when all the videos of the album are published they can be put in chronological order, to know the steps of Mr.Tillman
The Letter of Apostle Paul to the Galatians brought me here ...
Classic Misty right there
SONG OF THE YEAR
This couldn't have been released at better time. Thank you John for your songs!
Beck D
This song makes me feel alright about the shit going on in my life.
Good
The coordinates are so crazy he end this video at a bar I had an awful night at on like 14th and..ugh. Feel better
Taylor Babineaux but god how this shit speaks to me
He's standing at a crossroad and then starts to float towards heaven :- /
I love the imagery of the traffic/pedestrian lights. He looks at the green walk light and then turns to walk through the busy intersection.
This beautiful piece is so subtly profound! So much of his music makes me a better person.
Thanks Liam
A band with Josh Tillman on acoustic guitar, Natalie Mering on Keys, and Steven Drozd on drums would be incredible.
A song like this ,it's not easy to do ! Very deep and beautiful ,sad and full of kindness ,both .Bravo ! Bravissimo
The most enduring track/melody in this album. Love the earnestness in his singing and the lyrics of this song
My favourite song from the new album.
This feels like a collaboration between Father John Misty and Kris Kristofferson. I love how beautiful everything in this song is. What a performance!
I love this song
Luv forever
This song has to be my favourite on the album, it's so beautiful.
Bravo ! love this song ...
Perfect song.
My favourite 💕
Simply fantastic ❤
I love this man so much that I can't tell
Every song on the album is worth being released as a single.
Wow I am in love with this.
Sets the mood from first few notes. Brilliant reminder of other songs films music. Just a few seconds in. Class
It may be the first time I see him sing along to his lyrics in a music video.
Song of my life
God I love him
he is my hero
beautiful
needed this right now....thanks a million
VOTE - VOTE DAY - BE THERE --ty
Awesome talent!!!
I was able to picture this music video before seeing it just be hearing the song. That is good art.
Wonderful clip
🤞🏽Hangout at the Gallows🤞🏽
This video reminds me of new years eve 2016, I took a lsd and walked for hours in Monterrey streets, I only needed a new friend, Best day ever.
Sorry for my english, much love from México 🇲🇽
my hearttttt
I've given roadside memorial flowers to a loved one as well. It's a weird feeling, giving something meant for a dead person to someone living, especially when the something is dying, itself.
Zorak Zokstone very tasteful
Zorak Zokstone
Zorak Zokstone what if the flowers were for Father John Misty? Notice that they zoomed in on the missing poster? I assume there may be no more more Father John Misty! And what he is saying in this album, is that he needs to find himself, fixed his relationships Etc! And then he'll come back as father Josh Misty! LOL, in the missing poster either he's lost, and that's kind of where that's coming from and checking out at the same time! I guess that's what I'm trying to say, or John or Josh is trying to say,
blah blah ⛵............
Now that’s a Misty meatball!
Es una maldita joya esta canción. ❤
Looks like you had to actually be up all night to catch this video, so many light levels. Wild cinematography like always, Father.
Beautiful video! The lighting is spectacular.
Natural lighting the spooky streets of the east village filled with revelry and history
wow
Video starts at the Joe Strummer memorial. I., for one, love that.
🙌🏻
being drunk at night in the city is big mood
🙏🏼
here we go again
cohen vibes
Cheers for the heads up liam
This song leaves you as orphan.
I could watch him walk for hours lol
Malcolm X
Thank you for this!! :))
The 4 dislikes are Satan's Favorite Customers.
Omg it's 35 now
Stay the fuck away from me if you dislike this
How can somebody not like this, it's literally the most emotionally gripping, heartbreaking and lyrically the most beautiful album I've heard this year. The lyrics are smart, funny, sad etc LITERALLY EVERYTHING all at once
LMFAO!
I just don't understand why they bother. I wouldn't, for instance, go waste my time on The Thompson Twins page......life's too short.
👏👏👏👏👏
♥️
My life is the opposite of this video. I feel like I fell from a considerable height and roaming the streets drunk out of my mind.
I love you.
OMG YOU ARE THE BEST MR TILLMAN
Fuck Yeah, Happy Tuesday. Thanx Dad!!! ;-)
❤
Very cool single shot video! Perfectly captures the mood of walking home in the city on a late boozy night. Srs Harry Nilsson/Randy Newman vibes to this song.
Homeless superhero Josh Tillman! Well, that was cool! Just another thing amongst many, that I have in common with them mr. t!
Vine buscando inspiración y encontré oro.
Just noticed Tillman walks by the joe strummer mural in the beginning. Nice.
I just love Josh Tillman. I would certainly be your lover.
I transcribed the *SHEET MUSIC* for *Piano + Vocal + Guitar* :) It's on my website now.
Fucking great way to start the day! ❤️
This was practically the anthem of my alcoholic years. Unemployed, drinking alone while wandering through Paris, calling for metaphysical help.
Just so flightish and free... Cool you made a wave. Now what
Its like listening to nothing
in a good way I think
Reminds me of the video for Sapokonikan
I'm in the business of living, yeah that's something I'd say
