The National - I Am Easy To Find (May 17, 2019) Album • Page 57

It's very gray and cold in Michigan this morning. Woke up wanting to do a discog run (starting with Boxer) and that's what I'm gonna do !!

 

spun this for the time in aaaages today. the bridge of "Hairpin Turns" still absolutely turns me inside out

and I.... keep my eyes...... open

 

The National Discuss Their ‘Cyrano’ Score, Writing in Baggage Claim

 

"I don’t think of myself as a great singer, but I do think I’m a good deliverer of songs,” Berninger said of his own skills.

this modest motherfucker-

 

I love those lines together - "Say it like I was right in the room there/say it like your head was on my shoulder/and I'll keep my eyes open."

 

Uhhhh....
!!!!

Watch Matt Berninger Cover Big Thief's "Not"

 

The National - Homecoming 2020 • forum.chorus.fm

 

my apple music year in review is...not very interesting

 

Quiet Light might be my song of the year.

 

It’s a gem on an album full of gems

 

Also have I said that this is my favorite National album yet???

 

It is very close for me if it isn't

 

Not In Kansas and So Far So Fast really suck the wind out of this album for me though. I'd enjoy this album as a whole a lot more if those 13 minutes were cut.

I'll edit this to include Dust Swirls too, that three song run really doesn't do much for me.

 

Impressively bunk take

 

Not in Kansas is one of the best songs on this album

 

I like Not In Kansas on it's own, just the sequencing of those three takes me out of it. I don't know, hard to explain.

 

Not in Kansas is bad. I skip it.

 

The National don't write bad songs so you're wrong twice.

 

I agree to a certain extent with So Far So Fast but LOVE Not in Kansas. I think the biggest issue with the two songs is that they are both 6 + minutes and they come back to back

 

Well sorry Mr. 58 plays

 

Anyone going to Homecoming next year?

 

I want to! gotta convince my wife.

 

yeah I wish the two seven minute songs weren't back to back

 

AOTY

 

"So Far So Fast" is the best song on this album tho?
