A Tune A Day was in London without internet access this weekend, so I was unable to post an update yesterday. I've selected Saturday's song as 'Fake Empire' by The National. The National are an incredible band who say interesting things in interesting ways, and 'Fake Empire' is a great example of how unique their writing and presentation can feel. Sometimes their lyrics can seem abstract, but also allegorical, and they paint some wonderful pictures. I spent yesterday with my cousin, who introduced me to the band, and they featured quite a lot during the night's highly enjoyable house party. Speaking of which, I'm very much still recovering...
Let's not try to figure out everything at once...
