WHEN YOU ARE A STRANGE BOY THE PEOPLE ASK WHY I LIVE CAUSE I'M ALIVE !!

Oh you wouldn't want an angel watching over you:
Surprise, surprise they wouldn't want to watch
Another uninnocent, elegant fall
Into the unmagnificent lives of adults

@blondieney In response I'd say, The National's songs are all about portraying the grimey reality, the true emotions in actions, how harsh, false and lonely existence the modern world can be. Taking this into account, as well as the rattling guitars, sharp drumming and melancholic melodies, I really think the way Matt sings compliments and enhances this feeling. Also Matt writes basically all of their material so he is a bit of a God.

@blondieney Matt's voice is what makes The National so good. He's not the best singer out there technically, but man, does he infuse personality into his singing! He has such a chill, calm voice and he sings with so much emotion. He's one of a kind, and that's why we love him!
