I miss you all a lot! Glad you’re enjoying The National’s new album

 

Their early work was a little too New Wave for my taste. But then Sports came out in 1983, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that gives the songs a big boost. He's been compared to Elvis Costello but I think Huey has a more bitter, cynical sense of humor. In 1987 Huey released Fore!, their most accomplished album. I think I their undisputed masterpiece is "Hip To Be Square," a song so catchy that most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends. It's also a personal statement about the band itself.

Stuff

 

weirdest Taylor Swift song

 

Such as?

 

Did you mean it when you said I was pretty?
That you didn't wanna live in a city
Where the people are shitty
I like it when we play 1950
So bold make 'em know that you're with me
Stone cold, will you miss me?
