Two new entries this month and a new number one - Father John Misty, write-up below for those who wish to know more about the artist or the song.
Father John Misty (Allmusic) : Singer/songwriter J. Tillman's music paints languid, sadly beautiful portraits of love and life on the margins with the moody depth of Nick Drake and the country-influenced textures of Ryan Adams.
Real Love Baby (Pitchfork) That’s him couched in reverb on “Real Love Baby,” a one-off uploaded to Soundcloud in May and now properly released as a single. He might be boasting of having an entire world inside him (and how he tastes), but there’s a humbleness and honesty to the song. Like any real love, it’s about learning to surrender such power to the other person. He may call her honey, but Tillman also inverts that old metaphor of being the King Bee. Instead, he sweetly sings of being the flower, his betrothed the bee.
