The National: Apartment Story (live)

[hoogland1980]

lol @ liftedor!

[Daniman812]

nice melody, a true text of the current love

[druminvader]

More cowbell.

[carlo88moe]

@druminvader weak and outdated, go home dude, just go

[patriotsfan3675]

Such a well put together song, awesome when the drums come in

[6Ott7]

@patriotsfan3675 He looks like Mr Van Dreesen from Beavis and Butthead. The drummer.

[misterblitzer]

DOES IT MATTER WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE?

[gianenudo]

The singer looks like:Chris Martin

The guitarist looks like:a younger version of Jason White

The drummer looks like:John Lennon

The Bassist looks like:a bald Bono

and The other guitarist looks like: Well i dunno that one :P

[IndieSlap]

@gianenudo

please do not compare Matt to Chris Martin

he is so much more creative with his lyrics than Chris Martin

[StaringatheSun764]

@gianenudo first off.

The singer: is exponentially more talented than Chris Martin

The guitarist: looks like a regular dude.

The drummer:...does sort of resemble Lennon

The bassist: is the drummer's twin, he just happens to shave more frequently

and the other guitarist: is the first guitarists twin. so using your logic wouldnt he also look like Jason White?

[gianenudo]

@StaringatheSun764

1.lol I stated he looked like chris martin

2.I Am not seeing any similarity between the drummer and the bassist, maybe

its the glasses

3.About the two guitarists, Holy shit you are right!, they do look like eachother alot

maybe i should i have stated who they look like in THIS particular video, not how they look all the time, my bad :) 

[sublethalpuppet]

@gianenudo the drummer and the bassist are brothers and the two guitarists are twins

[gianenudo]

@sublethalpuppet well that about sums it up i guess XD

[joseenver]

excelente!!!

[PowrSlaveNF]

I like how the drummer looks like a complete bum. I am really liking his setup too.

[limaa91]

this IS music.

[Germanicus00]

That drummer is a genius! Anyone recall his name?

[whiteneptunexyz]

his name is bryan devendorf

true genius

[mason123danner]

John Lennon?!?!

[liftedor]

they obviously make great music, but i have to believe their rise to fame is due mainly to their ability to resurrect, and then recruit as drummer, the late john lennon.

[calmcyco]

[CHErevolucion1]

haha there drummer is badass. Kickass song!

[markybus]

these guys are beast..Im afraid this will be the only song i like by them though...if you have any other song suggestions by this band pleez let me know

[Lufus88]

get their two albums boxer and alligator

[mswags121]

as far as specific songs, abel, all the wine, fake empire, and start a war are a good start.

[goyankees4]

u would also like mistaken for strangers.

[jegmarquez]

un-fucking-believable. this band. very moving.

[anamanhique]

it's an amazing band:xxD

[nuge1294]

I don't get it. This band is top notch. Should be much more popular. I guess their music is better than the regular crap on the radio.

Quality music and great writing. Apartment Story is one of the best songs of the year.

I hope this band keeps prodcuing great music.

[brigggins]

i think it was actually 07 when they released boxer? idk i could be wrong

[Morious77]

I have to agree with you, they are a fantastic band with amazing lyrics.

They aren't as well known as they should be in my opinion, these guys should be making the millions and people should be listening to them instead of the crap i kissed a girl or the new 50 cent hit....

[fragmaster1500]

i agree they are amazing have u ever seen them live? they sound even better live.

[kerstea]

I was supposed to see them at Sasquatch this year but they were replaced by Fleet Foxes due to time or something. I was crushed. :(

[19948]

the fleet foxes are still great though

[Fairuza92]

Love them...Boxer - <3...

[colligsulli14]

Ya boxer is a great album. Arcade fire areunreal as well. Two other of my favourite bands nowadays are Iron and Wine and Midlake.

[tatelabianca]

oh yeah, midlake are unreal! saw them last year...amazing live. songs from van ocupanther sounded better than the record! which iron and wine record do you suggest for starters? don't know why I've never bothered to check them out. maybe I should?

[colligsulli14]

Any really. They are all very different. Their most recent The Sheperds Dog is really abstract with a load of instrumentation. I love it but don't give up on them if you don't like that record.

[tatelabianca]

thanks.  will check it out!

[Foolbird]

One of the few bands that I couldn't tell the difference between a live show and the original.

Btw, this is the best song by them and one of favourite as well.

[sexypants91]

I disagree. I have to admit I only own Boxer, and I feel it has a very produced sound to it. I think it is a very good produced sound, and I love Boxer. But songs like this and Mistaken For Strangers had a certain muddy tone to them while the live version is much clearer. I love both versions, but they are very distinct for me.

And yes this is definitely the best song by them.

[spacebetweensound]

These guys are fuckin' amazing...

Seeing 'em live the 28th!!!

[jaye230]

amazing...just amazing...and of course, it's nice to see John Lennon doing so well... :)

[jbeauprez]

Boxer was my favorite album last year by a mile. These guys make me so happy.

[kenbalbay]

rekindles my love for original music.these guys and maybe "fire arcade"

[BugEyes85]

that totally goes for me as well! the national are really about everything a band needs to be. great!

by the way: it's "arcade fire" -not the other way ;-)

[gloriachenhuizhi]

This was where I first heard the song! I was in love at once...

[ProdigyLover83]

Their best song, IMO. Too bad CBS took down the even better live performance on the Late Late Show.
