Lovage "Book of the Month" (full video)

[@patrickblakethesaint]

One of the most underrated albums of all time

[@debbiedoesellis3940]

Totally. Let's not forget the supreme Jennifer Charles Without Mike's trick there is no Jennifer treat

[@vytalman]

You’re one of the few on the interwebs that actually knows how to use the term “underrated”. 😉

There will never be a better voice match as theirs. Jennifer & Mike vocals are made for each other, I swear. Pure perfection.

I was bidding on this CD and lost on eBay. My wife tells me that same night she won this CD for me on a bid. God I love that woman 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣

Assuming she's equally awesome in every other (important) aspect, don't ever let this woman go. :D

Mike Patton's voice is masterful. Such a talented performer. I could listen to his vocals forever

[@sunnymilasolnyshka6941]

Same!!!!

[@billybob9691]

Same!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@breakfreak9238]

Forever is a long time I am sure you forgot about this band already 😂

[@ashtongrey6755]

I’ve just discovered mike Patton and his work but holy shit the depth and diversity and versatility of this guys work is amazing haven’t found one song from him I don’t like yet

[@anitataco6488]

I've always marveled at his vocal range! He can sing, rap, growl, scream, etc.and more and not only that, he does them all expertly. I've loved him since Faith No More. Saw Tomahawk with Tool and Patton threw raw pork and pigs blood on the crowd. The only time I was thrilled not to have floor tickets!

[@DigitalBathInAZ]

I'm actually kind of jealous of you because I've been a huge Patton fan since the late '80s. But you get you discover tons and tons of material from this genius. I wish I could be discovering him for the first time again.

[@pineapplecircus]

Try Mondo cane Italian Opera full symphony kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4PNfJ-Qnqx7h6s Also Tomahawk God Hates A Coward Then Faith No More Stripsearch

[@Aprillfools]

You won't find one easily...even if you might, at first, be this song isn't my cup of tea... they are all my cup of tea

[@michaelnorris7637]

I'm loving this album and I'm a 57 year old metalhead

[@youhavetogoback8449]

Damn. I'm on a Mike Patton binge so far I'm liking every one of his songs the first time I hear them!

[@itsjustafad]

Good to hear, you've got a lot of catching up to do :)

[@tropicaltom303]

hahaha I also binge on his music all the time and still find new bits I love! Angel Dust was my favourite album like 24 or 25 years ago and it still holds it's own, but his voice and humour / creative, sometimes savage, ALWAYS SURPRISING smooth singing style is just the best thing ever!!

[@michaelnorris7637]

Try his side project called peeping tom

[@kylebogden5365]

I’m Going on 2 months as we speak. Went through a bad breakup with lots of outside stress, rediscovered FNM and watched a live performance I never saw, and thought, damn, and he’s been my muse through it all. I have a playlist on Spotify called Ultimate Patton and it’s 34hrs of all of his works and bands. He’s the best there ever is and was. I swear I’m not gay either, but I’d do whatever Patton tells me to do

[@KnuckleNinjaMEDS]

anything Mike Patton does is phenomenal. One of the greatest, and most highly under rated, minds of our time.

[@MAANFICA]

Mike Patton sexiest man ever

[@DunkDuncan]

+Diego Gatjens He isn't gay hahaha You silly boy!

[@guidetoanything]

then why did he have a wife? lol

[@cynthiajones7514]

Mike Patton is not gay at all, he and Roddy used to act up on stage to get people riled lol It was all for fun, it did start rumors that he is gay but he was always straight and married an Italian woman for many years.

[@voisoddrivod9480]

you wish dude... it happens to know a (realy pretty, handsome, sexy, charming) girl here in Greece, also a singer, who used to 'date' him sometime ago...

[@sethasherv]

Omg yes!!!!! Agreed. He is one of the most talented people in the world.

[@Mr.VinylDestination]

I swear, Patton could sing the alphabet backwards and sound better than most vocalists in the last 20 years (or more)

[@margaritam8140]

Mike Patton.... drool.... nothing that voice, those eyes or that smile won't make me do. Such a tower of god damn talent... what can't Mikey do?

[@juanvazquez5836]

Margarita M Being more talented than Frank Zappa?

[@lovesthedark]

He can't stop being awesome

[@davidwhitmer8295]

He can't, or really won't to word things more correctly, get high on any substance. He has never used an intoxicant, even alcohol in his life.

[@dethkon]

Make a hit record? Still rules though.

[@anitataco6488]

Reach the top shelf? I love Mike Patton too, so when I say this, I'm purely joking! But I was absolutely shocked when I saw Tomahawk with Tool, I never would be guessed he was so incredibly short.

[@chrisd9610]

He had me at Faith No More. I didn't even know this was him when I first heard it but I'll be damned if Mike Patton isn't one of the busiest musicians ever.

[@CaioSDuarte]

To be able to sexualize like that with a fake missing teeth, this guy is a legend.

[@Loyannelima]

Caio S. Duarte concordo plenamente Caio 😆😆😆😆😆

[@MayinaBallerina]

Looks hotter with a missing tooth!

[@sunnymilasolnyshka6941]

Hell yeah!!! 😍🤤🔥🔥🔥

[@quesocfh6080]

his voice just so easily conquers simple shit like a missing tooth. it would take a lot more for him to not be legend.

[@tannapanek2252]

He makes it work 😍

[@anitataco6488]

This is such a bizarre album.........but it is SO my type of bizarre!

[@cryptocrypto9978]

It’s a work of pure sexiness

[@grzechu1987]

Mike Patton - I didn't expect him to be connected somehow to Elysian Fields! Such a wonderful mix. God, I wish they release another album.

[@Habtastic]

I could listen to his voice alllllll day

[@gaita3827]

Just realized that this has to be one of the first youtube videos ever 😳

[@cowman3449]

Oh shit you’re right

[@devinrodriguez3530]

This whole album is amazing 👌 Mike is a genius

[@phxjustin77]

I saw Lovage live in Chiicago back when the album came out. They only played a handful of shows. It was amazing.

[@Sporklift]

I was going through my old CD's and found the Lovage Bonus Disc. It has a behind the scenes of this video on it as well as acapella and instrumental versions of the song.

[@polkap9596]

You know Mike has two chips in his front teeth and has had for a very long time. You can't see it very clearly unless irl. But he does. True fact. Oh and yeah f*ck AK.✌🏼

[@doloresmalvinaferroperalta1929]

[@mariaholtz1]

It is just genius...LOVE LOVE LOVE Lovage...it's a little dirty, a little sweet, and yet he seems to be poking fun at himself. He is the man.

[@jacquinsavannah]

I found out who the guy in the boxers is. His name is brandon arnovick. It took awhile but I found it. I'm surprised he's not mentioned in the Album. Cheers

such a lovely, relaxed and rather well composed song and video. 7-8 years later its still nothing less than.

Best vocalist I know. Not just his amazing range. Also his amazing versatility is unique. From great clear voice performances, to death and Black Metal vocals to rap and beatboxing

[@WildFungus]

when is lovage II coming out? I like everyone on this record but it's greater than the sum of the parts.

[@Dhakadice]

Is there supposed to be audio when Nathaniel Merriweather speaks? Anyhow, Chest Rockwell, totally NAILS this song. :D

[@helenamedeiros8601]

One of my favorites albums

[@denillaz]

It is such a waste that Mike Patton didn't have such a band where he uses this tune of his voice before. Yeah Mr. Bungle was close but i mean, take him back to nineties and give him more bands for god's sake! This man is the best thing ever happened to the music world and no one tries to use it! Lovage is very underrated so is him. I could die for this tune of his voice. Just want to hear it from more projects of his..

[@DavidMartinez-pf6mf]

Deniz Tarantino some song in angel dust use good vocal range. Man mike is very talented.

[@glowwurm29]

Try PeepingTom or Tomahawk...his other bands.

[@lovesthedark]

I'd say Tomahawk is a good example of this style

[@festival3051]

Definitely not Dillinger haha

[@Tiera911]

You must not have heard Peeping Tom

[@gnunzia]

Love this track, the album, the band and naturally Mike Patton😍

I fucking love Mike and Jennifer. Their voices are so good together

I hope Armie never stops suggesting music!

[@psychotropican666]

[@pinsonherbag]

man, i love this song so much. i'm so happy i found it again.

[@yusufc1826]

2-3 months ago I have discovered Elysian Fields and outright LOVED it, listening constantly eversince. Last week I have encountered Mike Patton and I felt his strange vibe, watched and enjoyed his performances on various genres and again loved it. My constant fav artist for 5 years has been Lera Lynn, who has a Mike Patton cover, namely "Epic". If I go further, Jennifer Charles is a more beautiful doppelganger of Sia, one of my fav. Damn they all are freaks!

[@HRG75]

The facial expression at the 2:24 mark is gold Jerry, gold !

[@sandroace]

Mike Patton, a true musical genius with vocals unlike any other. Although I am forever a Faith No More fan(man I miss them)I do love all his projects, from this to Mr. Bungle, to Tomahawk and so on.

Great song and video. Doesn't take itself seriously. And Patton? Blacked out teeth, seedy, scruffy with those facial expressions are hilarious, yet he continues to captivate and arouse. What a refreshing change to see women melt over a guy that does not conform to the Hollywood type.
