I've heard about The National from the interview with Chester Bennington, who said that he's currently listening to them, So I've decided to check them out, and here I am after 4 years, huge fan of The National.. RIP Chester Bennington
Lyrics: I don't need you, I don't need you Besides I barely ever see you anymore When I do it feels you're only halfway there Young mothers love me even ghosts of Girlfriends call from Cleveland They will meet me anytime and anywhere The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? Don't do this, I don't do this to you Don't expect me to enjoy 'Cause I really don't have the courage not to turn the volume up inside my ears For years I used to put my head inside the speakers In the hallway when you get too high and talk forever The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? I get a little punchy with the vodka just like my great uncle Valentine Jester did But he had to deal with those people like you who made no goddamn common sense I’d rather walk all the way home right now than to spend one more second in this place I’m exactly like you Valentine, just come outside and leave with me Let's just get high enough to see our problems Let’s just get high enough to see our fathers’ houses The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be? The day I die, the day I die Where will we be?
Gentlemen, I thank you for sharing your talents. There are times I wonder if band's truly understand how much their music helps to heal. We need this new album desperately. The beast is on the march in these dark days. Your music is a balm for souls. Be well, all!
Heals in some many ways, too. The National got me through a particularly dark period, healthwise, in my life in 2011. Uplifting when I was at my lowest ebb. They never fail to uplift. An absolute treasure.

Amazing lyrics! Entire track conveys a surly, yet desperate feel. These dudes are ever-evolving and still fresh as a daisy! An easy GO-TO at ANY time. Gorgeous!
@@annuyam2343 Check out King gizzard and lizard wizard, Radiohead, The voidz. And If you are Indian check out this band called The khalnayak. Will blow your mind!
Thank you Luke. I always loved how you shared your favourite music with me, long drives with you singing behind the wheel are some of my most treasured memories. The National holds a special place in my heart and it means all the more when I listen to them now. I'm seeing them live for the first time next year, I wish you could be there. RIP The National is a gem, nothing else gives me this feeling
By far the most consistently amazing band of the decade. Over 100 songs and each and everyone of them is amazing in it's own unique way (and that's not even counting El Vy, Clogs and all the other side projects). Can't wait till the new album!! Thanks for being the sountrack of my life over the last years. Much love!

I can't believe these guys are coming back to Argentina and I'll have the chance to see 'em playing live. I've waited for so long and after four years they give us these gold pieces, it's like they never do anything wrong when they do their music. And I just don't have the words to explain how grateful I am for having The National in my life ❤❤❤
Ben Skywalker I'm 19 new to UA-cam check my music, I need subscribers and views to be seen 🤦🏻♂️go listen I'll post whatever covers you want, but I just like to sing my own 🤷🏻♂️
These guys really know what they are doing with this new album and dont push they sound beyond.I wish Arcade fire did something like that with their new album.
Alberto Vega Exactly, this is what experimentation and innovation is about. Being consistent with new layers added and keeping your music's essence and style intact. The National achieves that beautifully.

From the releases so far it sounds like they've made the album they needed to make, more up beat, bigger riffs, slightly more radio friendly songs and festival anthems but fundamentally staying the same. Their progression has been a joy to watch it's a sign of a great band to still be growing 16 years after they released their first album.
"For years I used to put my head inside the speakers" This reminds me of when you throw yourself into music and block the rest of the world and its problems out.
Nope. Can't win album of the year with good music, because the awards are just popularity contests. 4 months later, look who wins tons of grammy's. Two guys I don't give a shit about. Luckily they can't be nominated for every single category and the national ended up with a grammy for best alternative album. I've long since given up on the bands that I like getting album of the year.
Don b I don't know if the original poster even meant the grammy's. There are lots of album of the year awards and titles. As you implied, the grammy's aren't the decider of what is good music or not and I think people take them too seriously.
Love you guys. New or old, as long as you keep on playing, I feel you. Keep at it, all 6 (7 albums). Carin' at the liquor store is (one of) my favorites at the moment.
This is the first time Ive heard of this band. They are pretty timeless. This could very easily have come out in 1986-89 . Sounds like a lot of the New Wave /Alternative Rock that I used to listen to.
why every single song they make hits so deeply in the feelings despite feeling pretty decent before listening???? to much relatable and sad…I freaking love it.
Released 2 hours ago, just getting the chance to listen to this but I am amazed. So excited for this album to release, it's gonna be so sick!! So much love and support for this band.
I can't believe it, this band is truly special. I've been having the worst week, I've lost any and all will to live. Today was very hard for me and I come home to this. And its like this week never happened. Fuck I love these beautiful, wonderful, talented, amazing people
The song have a simpler lyrics compare to the three songs that release before it. But the instruments of this songs.... holy god, the guitar is some out of the world shit.......
Please. How. How do they do it? Their music is needed. Is needed to make you feel alive, even though the very irony of their melancholic themes. I don't care, just want to drown myself in this eternal bliss. Beautiful, so beautiful.
The Letter Bleeds Well, if this does not prove synchronicity and that many understand their music is needed desperately in an increasingly horrific world. As to synchronicity, my comment echoes your. Amazing. Please be well!
feel the same way, the national is essential to (my?) life, its that one band that understands it all, feels you forever, that has been there just for a while maybe (since 2007 prob), but is gonna stay with you for good. i really cant wait to expierence them live for atleast once, if i ever have a good chance, ill probably loose my shit entirely.

Love this band.
Funny seeing you here, I just watched your new video right before this :)
Btw I made a cover of Graceless a while ago, that's on my channel.
you should say that on your channel make people more excited for the new album
I never realised this but it's so obvious you would like them.
i love you weezy
oh yes, me too :)
never disappointed by the national
The National is one of the best things ever happened to me.
I've never agreed more
"The" best thing ever happened to me
I just discovered them. Glad I did.
I've heard about The National from the interview with Chester Bennington, who said that he's currently listening to them, So I've decided to check them out, and here I am after 4 years, huge fan of The National.. RIP Chester Bennington
Like the best National songs, Day I Die makes me feel 20 years older than I actually am.
My heart always swells with joy every time these fellas release new music. Bravo.
*that goddamn guitar piece is it's own song*
@kbrigsby61 God fucking damn it, Jesus Christ I hate you
It's not fair how good this is.
This album will be on loop for the entirety of fall
My idea too.
Lance Greene yes!!!
of fall? of the whole next year! :D
A perfect fall album

Lyrics:
I don't need you, I don't need you
Besides I barely ever see you anymore
When I do it feels you're only halfway there
Young mothers love me even ghosts of
Girlfriends call from Cleveland
They will meet me anytime and anywhere
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
Don't do this, I don't do this to you
Don't expect me to enjoy
'Cause I really don't have the courage not to turn the volume up inside my ears
For years I used to put my head inside the speakers
In the hallway when you get too high and talk forever
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
I get a little punchy with the vodka just like my great uncle Valentine Jester did
But he had to deal with those people like you who made no goddamn common sense
I’d rather walk all the way home right now than to spend one more second in this place
I’m exactly like you Valentine, just come outside and leave with me
Let's just get high enough to see our problems
Let’s just get high enough to see our fathers’ houses
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
The day I die, the day I die
Where will we be?
Love you
Laís Grass Possebon thanks you!! ❤️
now the song Val Jester has more context
Thank you!

Life changing.
The best part, they managed to beat Ed Sheeran to #1 in the UK charts.
Did they???
Good! Fuck dead sheeran. He's shit and can't make music.
@@anomaly9508 *cheers* Hear hear!
Ed sheeran was never good to begin with
Man, Black Midi was so right, after two years or so :-p
Amazing lyrics! Entire track conveys a surly, yet desperate feel. These dudes are ever-evolving and still fresh as a daisy! An easy GO-TO at ANY time. Gorgeous!
feels so good when your favorite band releases new material
This song rocked so hard live. I was privileged to see them last June.
People who disparage modern music just aren't looking in the right places!
Could you suggest some right places friend? Thank you.

Alec J. K best comment ever....

Two Steps From Hell is a good example. But modern music is normally that trash on the radio.
Thank you Luke. I always loved how you shared your favourite music with me, long drives with you singing behind the wheel are some of my most treasured memories.

The National is a gem, nothing else gives me this feeling
I still haven't taken Carin at the Liquor Store off repeat yet and they gonna drop this on us?!?
2:10 this is my favorite part of this song. That guitar echo followed by the quick paced drumming its ear candy
By far the most consistently amazing band of the decade. Over 100 songs and each and everyone of them is amazing in it's own unique way (and that's not even counting El Vy, Clogs and all the other side projects). Can't wait till the new album!! Thanks for being the sountrack of my life over the last years. Much love!
David Trebilcock agreed. Faultless!
Don't forget Grizzly Bear and Fleet Foxes
I absolutely agree. They are one of my favorite bands of all time since I heard Boxer for the first time. I think this new album is gonna be amazing!
Arcade Fire? (If we're loose about the word 'decade')
Funeral, Neon Bible, Suburbs, Reflektor?
The War On Drugs also deserve a mention.
i want everyone to jam to this at my funeral
Totally man
@@DemonDaniel99 And if they don't like the song, they deserve to put up with it.
same. if they don´t I´m not going.

Leila Floyd al Lolla? O solos?
Leyendo esto desde el futuro... Que mala leche que cancelaran...
Me encanta Buenos Aires y Mendoza ❤️
there's not even a single song of them that I don't absolutely love.
Dito
How is it possible that this band just keeps getting better when they were already so great??
This album will be great.
Ben Skywalker Absolutely agree

I think so
It is
Such a brilliant band, they're back catalogue is incredible.
I love how under each song video by the national there is someone writing the lyrics, they are so beautiful and powerful!
I paused my reading to watch this new work... worth it. Cant't wait for the new album.
About time they released an Alligator-esque banger. Excellent.
Val Jester has returned!
This entire album feels like guys who are aware they're not 25 anymore
GTFO, please. "Don't say nothin'. Keep your hands on the wheel. Don't turn around. This is for real." -- Peter Gabriel
Lol
Hahahaha!
Turns out being 25 is not going to be your whole world.....
... being 25 is way overrated.
I love to lie down under a tree, turn on this song and look at the stars, at the moon. It's very calming
Singing about the hard lessons in life and at the same time give all the hope of the world.. The National manage to achieve this. THANKS, LOVE!!!!
2017 and I'm still listening
I'm in love with every song so far. September 8 can't come soon enough.
Exquisite. One of two songs I've discovered this week that I know will be with me for the rest of my life however long that may be.
These guys really know what they are doing with this new album and dont push they sound beyond.I wish Arcade fire did something like that with their new album.
Alberto Vega Exactly, this is what experimentation and innovation is about. Being consistent with new layers added and keeping your music's essence and style intact. The National achieves that beautifully.
Everything Now is great. All the negative feedback just makes me like even more, especially the Pitchfork review. Fuck Pitchfork!
Alberto Vega arcade fire didn't push shit..and by the way this has nothing to do with that. Arcade fire rule dweeb.
Surprising, so often surprised

Very beautiful music, the band has a very unique sound that sits in the "right" place between classic rock and alternative rock
In love with this masterpiece!
I love it...been a fan for awhile, great stuff guys!
I love the mixing, the lyrics and the band...hell... best song of the album"!!!

Love everything about this, thanks for existing
I first time i heard this i had it on repeat. Makes me excited for the new album. The 4 new singles are really good.
"For years I used to put my head inside the speakers"
This reminds me of when you throw yourself into music and block the rest of the world and its problems out.
David Kriz It is
this is exactly what I do when listening to this song haha!
They never disappoint! Love this song.
Now I'm going to go listen to Val Jester.
So the girl in Val Jester is actually uncle Val's daughter?
That album made me rediscover why The National is simply my favourite band, speechless.
Can we just take a minute to show some love and appreciate *HOW GOOD THE DRUMMER IS*
Album of the year incoming!
Brand New..
Nope. Can't win album of the year with good music, because the awards are just popularity contests. 4 months later, look who wins tons of grammy's. Two guys I don't give a shit about.

The National and The War on Drugs, without a doubt, are going to have the greatest records of 2017
Aaron DeBusi The National won a Grammy!
The war of drugs are generic af and can't even write a decent tune. Overrated!
@@MrShahid0072 You mean pretty much every new Rap artists??.
@@ShiruSama1 The War on Drugs won a Grammy too!
Thank you, The National. Your music gives me hope.
Love this! Great album and this is it's best song
I'm so excited for this album.
Totally in love with their music
This album might be The National's best yet. The riff on this song sounds like something The Edge would play and I love it
One of the best American bands in the world. ✌️
I'm officially addicted to this song 🎤🙏🏻
This is good music
The National never dissappoints👏👏
exactly!!
One of the best bands I know! Love it so much.
Géniale ! Une super chanson! J'ai hâte d'entendre le prochain album au complet :D
That drummer my god. Just perfect. Best drummer I heard in many years!
This reminds me so much of the new wave music of the 1980's. I love it!! 🖤🖤
Check out Television "Marquee Moon"
I love you guys. You're my biggest source of motivation and I discovered my baritone voice just because of you Mr Berninger
Color me effing stoked for this album! Such a plethora of song styles to feast on.

Awesome Album! Love these guys!
Brilliant music, brilliant video.

Great song, massively underrated band.
And this is why they are my favourite band.
This album needs to drop desperately. I can't take this wait anymore.......
Please. How. How do they do it? Their music is needed. Is needed to make you feel alive, even though the very irony of their melancholic themes. I don't care, just want to drown myself in this eternal bliss. Beautiful, so beautiful.
The Letter Bleeds Well, if this does not prove synchronicity and that many understand their music is needed desperately in an increasingly horrific world. As to synchronicity, my comment echoes your. Amazing. Please be well!
