FJM is at the very top of my concert bucket list in 2021. He was my boyfriend's favorite artist, and I quickly became a huge fan. He passed away in February, and we never got to see FJM live. 💔 This concert will be a true religious experience for me. ☀️💕☀️
I feel like he picked up that jacket -- realized he had no idea in hell what to do with it -- then awkwardly returned it with a semi-sauve, "that's nice".
I feel like this has a crazy low number of thumbs and comments for such a great song. And a quality live performance that is as good or better than the studio recording... Forgive me Father, I am also an aimless fake drifter...
+fmjohnson019 I think it's partially intentional. I think he's very self aware of his and other people's pretensions and at least in some ways mocking them - both within his persona and his music.
I don’t know, I just think it’s just artistic expression of feeling. I’ve never seen somebody capture a feeling better than he has. Even if it sounds weird sometimes it’s how we feel.
I don't find him to be much like Nick Drake at all, unless you are speaking purely visual aesthetic in which case that's actually a pretty good description, I'm gonna assume that's what you mean lol.
THE BEGINNING OF THIS SONG SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE ANOTHER SONG. PLEASE HELP ME, GOING CRAZY. The lyrics that come to mind are like "SHIIIINING... SHINING... ON ME..." ANYONE???
Watching this performance, I had an old personal question answered: do rockstars carry their wallets on the back pockets while on stage???? Yes, FJM does.
Magnifica esibizione di John Misty........ma Non centra Niente con la famosa "When You're Smiling.....Eseguita da Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong e tanti altri Great -Singers.......

He's got a genuine voice, not a studio one. That feels rare these days.
"That's how you live free
Truly see and be seen" such a powerfull quote
Best album in years. He deserves a huge amount of acclaim and fame.
This man really knows how to write a damn sexy love song
This performance is so goddamn beautiful. One of the most romantic modern love songs. Love this guy.
I had to google the definition of astride. What a classy way to say that....
Haha I did the exact same thing and came to the same conclusion.
All three of you are morons
you had to google astride? Fucking hell you must be thick as a plank then.
@@matthewedgeworth4509 yikes dude you seem like a real nice guy
Stephen Dedalus, you just dropped your portrait, portrait of an asshole as a young man!
he's just incredible, also for some reason i fucking love his hair in this? this was a loooook
Damn Josh puts on a great show. I can’t wait for the opportunity to see him live.
This was a song my first love introduced me to. It was our song when we were together. What a beautiful relationship we had
The way he moves reminds me of Jarvis Cocker... Great song and performance
my favorite song of 2015, literally my favorite.

Why is this so underrated?
I can't believe how close this sounds to the studio version!! I need to see him live.
He's so pretentious but I love him so much

+fmjohnson019 he's in character as Father John. Pretty sure Josh Tillman is a different guy :)
he love's you too honeybear
I don’t know, I just think it’s just artistic expression of feeling. I’ve never seen somebody capture a feeling better than he has. Even if it sounds weird sometimes it’s how we feel.
He’s the biggest douche but he’s great
Amazing performer
i saw him live at ACL just a few days ago and his voice is gorgeous. Loved running into his set, i cant stop listening to him now!
Nick Drake + Jim Morrison = Josh
AMAZING !
👍👍👍👍
I don't find him to be much like Nick Drake at all, unless you are speaking purely visual aesthetic in which case that's actually a pretty good description, I'm gonna assume that's what you mean lol.
How did I miss this one! Very Nice !
No comments? This is amazing.
Wonderful !
Beautiful 😍
He's so beautiful
This is one amazing performance. Love it.
I want his hair
I have his hear and beard and now it stinks of too much pussy. Luxury problem.
This live version is sorely missing the doo wop backing vocals OOH OOH OOH ;(
3.39 makes me crazy and in love with him😍
It's just too good
que homem
"It's nice..."
Great
fucking powerful
dunno what he's on but he's got the Mojo-rison for sure

ANYONE???
Sascha Elfassy kingston wall- shine on me?

love you FJM
Give it to me like this or get out.

Is this in Philly?
yes - he does like his performance space but it works so ...
"you think I'm kidding?"

J.D. Souther with a sense of humor. He's good, I like him. Liked his last album better.
people get it. ..It's Why We Have Mirrors. ...Musical Reflections
