Best song to listen to while stuck on a time loop for everyday straight.

Who is here for Palm Spring???
Great Movie, the best of Andy samberg ❤️

When I heard it on "Palm Springs (2020)", I didn't expect it to be a 70s song. Sounded like a recent indie hit. Such a cheerful song.

Cale is an under appreciated genius! I can't say that I love everything that he's done, but I do love most of it and you've got to admit, he's always pushed the envelope!

"The violin on this track is magnificent!" Viola actually is what Cale plays. Genius song!

[productionflms]

I watched Palm Springs the other day and was like "Holy shit! They're using a John Cale song!" That alone made me like the movie.

What an original, fearless talent.Raw and minimalist courage.

[broscastefano]

The viola solo is so amazingly insane.

[blitzboy]

Palm Springs! Beer, sunshine and beach shorts!

This is the best drip I've ever heard on a spring reverb

The late Steve Albini (Big Black, Rapeman, Shellac and multi times producer) included this in his top 20 (actually 27) all time favorite songs list.
One of the best live performers I've ever seen (Rapeman, Shellac, missed out on Big Black). My already huge respect for him has grown even more so, after finding out he has included my all time Music God on his list.
RIP Big Steve! (22.07.1962 - 07.05.2024)

Everybody: Palmsprings brought me here
Me: John Cale brought me to Palmsprings

[BarrelShape]

The violin on this track is magnificent!

If y'all liked this, you should check out more John Cale stuff he's highly underrated. I like Wrong Way Up with Brian Eno, and Ship of Fools from this album is fantastic.

I don’t what Palm Springs is but I’m glad it’s bringing people to Johns music

[paulreid]

Looking forward to John's concert in Brum tonight.

Heard this on Sirius XMU, what a slammer of a song

[stevekopp]

Sweet song from a sweet montage on palm springs

[benlee]

For once a Youtube recommendation is actually good!

I don’t know about some movie called Palm Springs but I know that this record and animal Justice are my favorite John Cale records...it’s also easy to see where The Talking Heads got their sound from
