Hey there post-punk/indie rock lovers! We just thought you might wanna check out our demos. The National - we adore them so much. And we are very proud to have them as one of our influences :) Just type in LES FILS - AS WE ARE to hear it cause we can't share links here.
Every aspect of this is perfect. The gentle rhythms slowly building to a lush plateau, the narrator telling of breaking into his acquaintances houses, going through their things with surgical gloves, generally being creepy. Absolute magic.
The first time I listened to Boxer, this and Slow Show were the only songs that didn't sound like the rest of the album. I put Boxer away and decided I wasn't meant to be a fan of The National... weeks later I was humming the tune to this and had to go back and listen to the whole album... fell in love at 2nd listen
As for the blockage in trying to know a person so deeply, this song incises like open heart surgery and reveals how painful loving relationships can be.
A real grower. Overlooked this song for a long time. Other songs on the album were more immediate. No one does subtle quite like The National.Fantastic band
I know exactly what you mean, I listened through the entire album about three times then forth time around the opening verse of this song just completely kicked my ass.

A human tragedy in under 4 minutes. Moving, touching, bittersweet, beautiful.

This song worm-digs its way into my stomach and warms the walls of it like a nightlight ran from sundown on Christmas Eve until sunrise.

Get inside their clothes
with my green gloves
watch their videos, in their chairs.
Get inside their beds
with my green gloves
Get inside their heads, love their loves.
