Watch Mitski’s La Blogothèque Performance Of “I’m Your Man”

Mitski unveils a short film for La Blogothèque of “I’m Your Man,” a standout song from her new album, The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We. Filmed in Paris and directed by Aelred Nils, the performance sees Mitski wandering the halls of a hundred-year old concert hall while playing an acoustic rendition of “I’m Your Man,” adding a haunting aura to what FADER calls “the tragic crux of The Land is Inhospitable and So Are We.”

Last week, Mitski announced a lengthy fall tour in support of The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We.  Due to demand, Mitski has added additional concerts, including a performance with Alvvays at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD, a third date at The Fox Theatre in Atlanta, GA, and a second date at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, CA. General on-sale for all newly announced tour dates is Friday, Jan. 26 at 10AM local time, and can be purchased here.

 
As Billboard hailed The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We as “all-out gorgeous, a studio masterclass” and Stereogum declared it is “Mitski’s most intricate, widescreen album to date,” the album garnered widespread praise upon its release, and made a huge splash in the best of the year lists.

On top of the album’s success, The Land’s “My Love Mine All Mine,” a “slow, moony ballad that sounds unlike anything else on the charts” (New York Times), has quickly become one of the most popular and streamed songs in the world (+750 million streams since release 4 months ago). It’s peaked as the #2 most streamed song in the world on Spotify and #26 on the Billboard Hot 100 Charts (now in its 15th week on the Chart), in addition to holding the #1 spot on the Billboard TikTok Top 50 chart for a record-breaking five weeks. Additionally, “My Love Mine All Mine” has just debuted at #40 at US Top 40 radio. “It’s a perfect snapshot of [Mitski’s] wistful craftsmanship - tender-hearted and sharp-toothed” (Pitchfork).  
 
In Southeast Asia “My Love Mine All Mine” has resonated profoundly with local audiences, being the most streamed track for Mitski in the region. Dominating across multiple fronts, from commanding and sustaining positions on various streaming platform charts to topping local radio charts, the song has left an indelible mark in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and  Vietnam, further underscores the artist’s growing appeal in these countries.
