This comment is utter crap, and esp the one you reply to. The guys in my fraternity had excellent taste in music. One guy even went one to become a notable artist. |

It's good enough for me to look it up on RP.
That makes it at least a 7.

His voice and the violins. It's almost too much.

I don't know this song. However, it shares a lot with the previously played Turin Brakes piece (Sea Change). Only a really astute and tuned-in DJ could see this and program so brilliantly.

Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers is a bit patchy - 2004's Cherry Tree EP was a big step up for them IMO. However, Sad Songs has some really great cuts like this one - the one-two punch of Patterns of Fairytales and Lucky You is just perfect. |

Their older crap is much better than their newer crap.
I rated this a "3". My highest rating yet for a National song.

God I would love to see them in concert. High Violet was in heavy rotation all summer long on my ipod.

I went in thinking the space would be filled with balding 30-something adult-indie beardos like me, and was stunned to find out that the band has a giant frat boy contingent who had made associations with the band and their lyrics (!!?!)... I know that "Fake Empire" has been associated with Barack Obama, as it was played in Grant Park shortly before Obama's election victory party kicked off, but was it included in some Abercrombie and Fitch sampler or something? I reckon they were thisclose to making the NEW MOON soundtrack...
Back to the show: I witnessed beer cans held aloft, 19-year-old boys screaming "WHOOOO!!!!" during some of the more hushed moments, and girls in Uggs swaying as if to Taylor Swift or something... Picture this scene at a Leonard Cohen show. Maybe my gut response was that it was a boorish, improper response to music which I feel should put one into a more introspective frame of mind (like a good short story), but then I was like, who am I to judge how this music clearly makes a good number of people feel? Maybe not an original thought, but one that that perhaps doesn't hit these boards often enough...
we play RP at work most of my workmates are 20 years younger than me pretty much every day, the hardest work I have to do is not to gush sentimental / or be uber possesive about the music they have 'discovered' bless them as long as they appreciate it! |

The 128k ACC feed; how good is it?  Good enough to hear his nose whistle when he inhales through it.  |
