This is an awesome song. The National debuted the first song on Fallon (Jimmy is killing em) from their upcoming record High Violet.

Dedicated to Ciaran as its his birthday tomorrow and he’s a massive fan of the band.

    Amazing. My most highly anticipated album of the year and its going to be brilliant based on that!

    Yep, they just debuted it early to make National fans cry and yearn for longer.

    The feckers! :) Any news on live dates over here, they’d be a good fit for Electric Picnic,,,,,which means they’ll probably end up playing Oxygen.

    kinda wish there was a comma between the words terrible and love. thinking of burying my head in some soft topsoil during the ferocious storms of national and arcade fire worship headed our way this summer. It’s demented and weirdly Irish. Like the way we idolised mid-period REM. I don’t get it. Maybe I am too simple.

      its not our fault we have an ear for good music ,the national are a massivley underated band ,see them live and you will get it.

  • Ciaran
