百聽不膩The National
如果要簡單來形容The National，那就是他們實在不起眼，初聽者可能會被異常低沉的嗓音影響、覺得好陰暗，但偏偏仔細聽會有意外的發現。我幸運了點，才剛接觸不久（但其實已經出到第四張專輯）就親眼看到The National的現場演出，主唱Matt Berninger低沉抑鬱的嗓音可以下墜到最低點，沿著地面蟄伏緩速前進，也可以火力全開狂暴嘶吼，但高音在謹慎的掌控下不會爆掉，比起專輯來得猛，低音也來得更感性，實在好聽極了。
這樣的嗓音我會想起Tindersticks，無論在歌詞題材上或曲子表現上，The National都好有他們的味道。最不同的是，往往飽滿帶勁的鼓點是那樣快速催促著，兩把吉他就這樣飆啊飆，當時現場還有澳洲作曲家Padma Newsome拉起小提琴，震得我毫無招架之力。 Be still for a second while I try and try to pin your flowers on Can you carry my drink I have everything else I can tie my tie all by myself I’m getting tied, I’m forgetting why Oh we’re so disarming darling, everything we did believe is diving diving diving diving off the balcony Tired and wired we ruin too easy sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave Hold ourselves together with our arms around the stereo for hours While it sings to itself or whatever it does when it sings to itself of its long lost loves I’m getting tied, I’m forgetting why Tired and wired we ruin too easy sleep in our clothes and wait for winter to leave but I’ll be with you behind the couch when they come on a different day just like this one We’ll stay inside til somebody finds us do whatever the TV tells us stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz for days We’ll stay inside til somebody finds us do whatever the TV tells us stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz so worry not all things are well we’ll be alright we have our looks and perfume stay inside til somebody finds us do whatever the TV tells us stay inside our rosy-minded fuzz so worry not all things are well we’ll be alright we have our looks and perfume on 歌詞來源 圖片來源：The National官網 其他試聽：The National @ myspace PS. 新專輯台灣已經發行嚕！ The National英國Fopp唱片行巡演的故事刊登在DVDinfo雜誌六月號，有興趣的可以找來看。

專輯聽了幾次
果真是越聽越好聽
有點後悔當時沒跟你去唱片行聽
但說真的 我在文具店真的逛瘋了
