Anyone still here in 2024 ?

Murray was finally able to find the guys a nice gig! Good on ya, Murray.

“But never ever introduce her to your handsomest friend” kills me every time 😅

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.

I’ve literally been waiting 10 years for this. Murray must be proud of them.

I recently lost my dad. Thanks for making me cry and laugh at the same time.

This song didn't make me cry, it's just been raining... On my face.

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?

I saw Brett on a flight from Auckland to Wellington. I lit up. I was a foreigner 😂.

Holy crap, their style hasn't changed at all lol. No clue how they come up with these songs, but this one was really good.

They're the politest, purest and most adorable form of fun. I love um 😍

I love how this song doesn't immediately deliver on what you're expecting, and before it does you don't care because it's really sweet, and you remember again that these guys are really talented and are really good doing a lot of different things, as evidenced in most of their stuff. 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.

To those people who disliked this video:

Yay, my favourite 4th most popular New Zealand folk duo are back!

Damn, I miss these guys so much... bring back their tv show

I'm going to assume that the child in question here is Jenny and John's adopted child. It was a very difficult process, and it can take a big toll on a couple.

This is a masterpiece. Listening to it a second time the context completely changes, and as a 30-year old who lost his father this song hits me deep. Fantastic writing and delivery!

Bret is such an elite songwriter. Deserves all his accolades.

Oh, it’s so beautiful & hilarious. I had tears in my eyes & busted out laughing when the song shifted. So happy to hear them sing.
