“The Night Josh Tillman Came To Our Apartment” off of the album, ‘I Love You, Honeybear’
This video is partially inspired by the LeBron James quote “It is precisely the superficial differences between people who are otherwise alike that inform the hostilities between them.” Special thanks to my body double Tyler who I had to kiss no fewer than two dozen times and whose breath I can still smell in my mind’s eye.
Father John Misty off this year’s excellent I Love You, Honeybear. It’s a surreal romance that sees a suave Josh Tillman approaching a bummed-out version of himself at a bar. They hit it off and proceed to snort cocaine, go swimming, and, finally, hook up. (Coincidentally, this is a narrative that Young Thug touched upon earlier this week in his“Best Friend” video). The clip was directed by Drew Pearce, who co-wrote Iron Man 3 and Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.
Pearce said, “It has been an honor to explore the palpable sexual chemistry that exists between Josh Tillman and himself. I hope this video does their enduring love affair justice.”
