Father John Misty writes passionate, emotional music, and has a unique ability to transfer these emotions to his music videos. Above, you can watch his newest video for the track "I Love You, Honeybear."
The song's rhythm and clever use of lyrics adds fittingly to the parallel storylines of love and loss in the video. Two EMS workers, played by Brett Gelman and Susan Traylor, are getting wasted in their ambulance when they receive an emergency call. They respond to a horrible situation involving Father John Misty (Josh Tillman) and his real life wife, Emma Tillman, doing their best given the condition they're in. The video has a little bit of everything, from comedy to suspense to heartbreak to comfort.
The track is from Misty's 2015 release, I Love You, Honeybear. You can listen to it and read our review here on Zumic. Pick up the album on Amazon (Vinyl, CD, MP3).
