[@TheHongKongHermit]

Still takes some getting used to, seeing these two as greying dad types. 2009 sometimes doesn't seem that far away. And yet at other times it feels like a lifetime ago. So, so good to see the guys back though.

[@trentasaurus]

I love these guys but they made me feel old in that interview.

[@TheHongKongHermit]

Me too, friend. Felt like I was a similar age to them while the FotC series was running. In my 30s but still youthful enough that the world was still full of possibility. Now they look old, and I'm suddenly confronted with the fact that I'm only a couple of years away from looking exactly the same.

[@TheHongKongHermit]

Oh god, it's even worse. I just looked it up and I'm the same age as Jermaine, and 2 years older than Bret. I'm about to get battered with the grizzled old man stick.

[@idontwantahandlethough]

I feel like this one just has to be an homage/parody of the song of the same name by Cat Stevens. If you ever wanted to know how to make literally any dude cry.. just play that lol

[@happytime11]

I think this may be FOTC's best work to date. Even after hearing it multiple times I still feel moved by the father and son reminiscing about their day together at the beginning of the song. Then Bret's line "she just hooked up with another guy" always cracks me up. The way this song can lure you into one feeling and then shatter it, I believe only true art can really manipulate your feelings like that. The last part also got me thinking, why does the 33-year old son still want to sit on his Dad's knee and hear his advice? Did he grow up and realise he needed his Dad after all? But his Dad, tired of being cruelly thrown out and shunned, feels like he can't make up that relationship again that was snatched away from him? Or maybe 33 just rhymes with knee.

[@DavidAddis]

I thought it was just because a 33 year-old couldn't comfortably sit on the knee of a man in his (presumably) 60s or 70s. I didn't think he was shunned. My question is did that happen years later or was he 33 for the whole song?

Easy to assume they are just really good at life and do quite well in their private lives off camera, which they seem to enjoy as well. It's all very wholesome but never not funny too.

Good to see them again. Look up the bus driver song. Its a masterpiece.

It's so great to see these guys together again. I was a huge fan the moment their show came out. As much as I hated seeing the show go, I'd much rather have them stop before they thought it wouldnt be as good. Love you guys, you brought me a lot of laughs, and helped me get through a lot of tough times. Thanks.

Twisted Cat Stevens. So awesome. Sigh...

My dad passed away last week, this made me feel a little better, thanks flight of the concords

I was, for some reason, expecting a Cat Stevens cover. This was equally excellent.

I met these guys at a tiki bar San Francisco after they played a show where Aziz Ansari opened for them. Jemaine was really really cool and Aziz was too. Bret went to a corner with some friends. We got to talk with them for about 25min before the bar got swarmed by fans. Total chance meeting, we were staying at the hotel where the bar was. Still have the receipt.

I think part of the magic that comes from these amazing guys is how they manage to write a very sad song, make you feel the sadness and turning it into laughter. Edit: They're also nothing short of musical wizards.
