sounds good to me. El Vy was awesome so I'd like to see him continue working with other musicians.

Demons is a great song. I agree that the bridge is the best part. Seems underrated, but I guess I don’t know a lot of people rating or ranking National songs.Chris_H_2 wrote:other flaw: the national never does 2 encores
but man, i love the inclusion of demons, with possibly the best bridge of any national song

I'm really liking "Walking on a String." I can't believe we're already getting new material, I'm still obsessed with I am Easy to Find.

Other than “Not in Kansas”, I Am Easy to Find is a perfect album.

Just tie your woman to your wrist
Give her the room to tie the others
They'll find us here
Here, here in the guest room
Where we throw money at each other and cry
Oh, my

Everything I love is on the table
Everything I love is out to sea
I have only two emotions
Careful fear and dead devotion
I can't get the balance right
Throw my marbles in the fight

I liked the old way, I thought
I was hanging in there
You held back the worst rain
From my shoulders then
What are we going through, you and me?
Every other house on the street's burnin'
What are we going through, wait and see
Days of brutalism and hairpin turns
Your nervous throat clicks
And my spirit swims right to the hook
You go quiet and leave me
In the wake of a terrifying look
What are we going through, you and me?
What is it you want me to be learning?
We're always arguing about the same things
Days of brutalism and hairpin turns

You were waiting outside for me in the sun
Laying down to soak it all in before we had to run
I was always ten feet behind you from the start
Didn't know you were gone 'til we were in the car
Oh, the glory of it all was lost on me
'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you
And I would always be light years, light years away from you
Light years, light years away from you
Laying down to soak it all in before we had to run
I was always ten feet behind you from the start
Didn't know you were gone 'til we were in the car
Oh, the glory of it all was lost on me
'Til I saw how hard it'd be to reach you
And I would always be light years, light years away from you
Light years, light years away from you
