Just a quickie post today; but thought I would delight you all with another offering from The National.
Despite the constant blogosphere hype about this group (which seems to have been going on for years now) that plagues them, The National continues to deliver on their initial promise.
The National performed “Slow Show” live on “Fair Game”
They recently appeared on PRI’s “Live on Fair Game” show, and performed four tracks live in studio: “Fake Empire,” “Slow Show,” “Start A War,” and “You’ve Done It Again Virginia”.
I wanna hurry home to you
put on a slow, dumb show for you
and crack you up
Matt Berninger’s voice? Man, it still gets me every time. With such a distinctive tone, you might think it’s efficacy may wear off in time; you’d be wrong.
To hear the other tracks (and more releases from Fair Game), head here.
Listen: The National – Slow Show (live on Fair Game)
I know, I know, this is short. But hey, with a cracking tune like that I couldn’t let it slip by. Regular posting will resume once things quieten down at work.
Tomorrow? A band I love has reformed. And my thoughts…
