The National reveal Rylan on Q

A live performance from Brooklyn band, The National, at a venue like Glenn Gould Studio is special enough, but when they play a brand new song for the first

This version is a million times better than the studio version. They could have just put this one right on the record TBH.

This one was so much better than the studio version.

Rylan, you should try to get some sun
You remind me of everyone
Rylan, did you break your mother's heart?
Every time you tried to play your part

Is it easy to keep so quiet?
Everybody loves a quiet child
Underwater you're almost free
If you wanna be alone, come with me

Rylan, we can take the quick way out
We can turn blank-white in a blank-white house
Say that you're a pervert, you're a vulture
Don't you wanna be popular culture?

Is it easy to keep so quiet?
Everybody loves a quiet child
Underwater you're almost free
If you wanna be alone, come with me

Is it easy to live inside yourself?
All the little kids are high and hazy
Everybody's got nowhere to go
Everybody wants to be amazing

Rylan, California's rotten
Dress light-blue to be forgotten
Eat your pearls on Sunday morning
Keep your conversations boring

Stay with me among the strangers
Change your mind and nothing changes
Don't let show any emotion
When you climb into the ocean

Rylan, you should try to get some sun
There's a little bit of hell in everyone
Rylan, you should try to get some sun
You remind me of everyone
Rylan, you should try to get some sun
There's a little bit of hell in everyone
Rylan, you should try to get some sun

Just listed to the recording version right before this wow I just can’t handle this. The song was written during high violet and was pushed back 4 albums but the wait is so worth it for the best song on the best album of the year vampire Weekend will win best alternative album this year but the national will win best album and if they don’t I don’t understand what the academy is even doing here this is the best music the real music this is poetry this is art this is perfection this is the national
