Music Appreciation Post- The National

I would just like to take a moment to talk about the genius that is the band, The National.
Their music is beautiful, lyrics poetic, and Matt Berninger's vocals are full of passion and honesty. His voice, their lyrics, and the music are honest in that they bear all emotion upfront but not with fanfare, completely simple.
Most of the time, all my "sad day" music (as I like to call it) goes out the window when I'm in a relationship, but despite my happiness their music still calls to me. I can't turn it off, and I can't help but play it.
