Father John Misty - I Guess Time Just Makes Fools of Us All [Official Audio]

Kinda blues disco. I dig it.

Like Clint Eastwood roller skating off into the sunset...

[@garygibson5983]

My kid played this for me a few weeks back and I had to smile. His last album was a Glen Campbell throwback and now he's moved on the the 1980's sound of the pop and rock icons who got left in the dust and then moved into this disco country sound. Tom Jones, Jerry Lee Lewis, and even Gordon Lightfoot went this way. 40 plus years later the father is dipping his toe into a familiar pool, but the kids...the kids never heard that stuff. Everything old is new again....except for me...I'm just old.

[@DeepRising-Ambience]

[@groovytuesday5222]

I've never listening to a song of this man in my life, I went to listen this because it was in that Pitchfork 2024 song of the year list and I thought why not? I instantly loved it but now I'm realizing I've been listening to an 8 minutes song but I didn't see the time pass, it's so engaging and the lyrics are so interesting, my mind was just listening and enjoying it. I think I NEED to check out his discography. This song is so good.

[@andywatt2376]

That and the title track. Two monster songs that are worth the whole album. This guy never fails to deliver. Btw, I'm unsuccessfully trying to find some Disco music songs similar to "I guess time makes fools of us". This song is a killer. The groove, the coolness, the rhythm and, of course, his trade mark nonchalant voice.

[@aaroninternet4159]

I feel it man, the great irony, the tragic humor of the whole human game. The endless change, the dissolution of all golden calves, the hypnotic dream world of Man's desires. God always has a new lesson for the dreamer. Do we ever wake up fully? Will God ever show us the plan? Again and again, we are humbled to our knees, bowing down to his mercy, to our ever breaking heart. We are nothing more than infinitesimal grains of sand, which contain infinity. Perhaps every pain is a stepping stone to liberation, and the best thing to fill our bellows of emptiness is laughter.

Awesome song! I mean, "Parachute into the Anthropocene..." What?! Anthropocene? This is next-level songwriting from Josh. I love when songs include words or phrases not normally heard or spoken by goobers like myself. Runner-up in this category is when Shriekback used the word "parthenogenesis" in their 1985 (sort-of) hit, "Nemesis." I listened to FJM's song over and over when I was out working in my herb garden recently on sunny, warm day. And I realized that thyme just makes fools of us all.
