Apartment story has a better hook and better lyrics and it's a tighter song

Apartment Story is easily in my top 50 favorite songs by any artist or band.

Apartment Story is the band's best song. That has been my stand for a decade.

dunno if I'd even have Apartment Story in the top half of this record, damn
new song is p good and almost everything the National has ever done has walked the line between refinement and blandness for (mostly) better or worse, so I don't get the debate here hmm

The debate is just usual song comparisons we've done to oblivion on threads for this band.

If you pay attention to the lyrics she’s talking about feminism

That song is pretty brutal for me. For some reason it was the soundtrack to the end of my long term relationship.

‘Apartment Story’ is definitely better than the new single or ANY song on the previous album.



It’s about seventh or eighth strongest here.

Hmmm yeah I can’t argue with that take, and I even like the latest one a lot.

hoping the new single is reflective of the new album's quality, although You Had Your Soul With You is one of their best songs and lead to a not as great album so who knows
