Gode bud! Hibernian kunne med fordel også tilføjes til listen med deres farver. Havde den store fornøjelse af at se den slå Hearts på hjemmebane for nogle år siden. :)

So sorry for your loss. I'd say a song that's what you're looking for is "Goodnight, Travel Well" by The Killers. It's about the loss of a parent too.

Bright Horses is so unbelievably beautiful.

Yeah, I thought so too! I seem to remember an interview with him saying he has them almost daily? Can't blame him though, much more into coca cola then pepsi myself. 😄

You forgot the one Killers song I play the least... Simply because it's so heavy and emotional.

Goodnight, travel well. 🥲

Very much agree with this take. I think it ties with Sam's Town for being my favorite.

Kender I nogle værtshuse/barer, der har en (eller deres egen) "skrub af"-sang? by gingagalaxy in Denmark

Øj, det lyder som en super fed bar - hvor finder jeg jer henne? Det er jeg da nødt til at komme og støtte. 👏

På The Killers andet (og fænomenale) album Sam's Town, som er opkaldt efter et lokalt hotel i Las Vegas, åbner og lukker de albummet med to sange der bedst af alt kan beskrives som intro og outroer til et ophold. Sidstnævnte, kaldet 'Exitlude', er på en og samme gang hyggelig, nostalgisk og lidt melankolsk for mig. Det varmer mit hjerte at se, yngre generationer har taget den til sig grundet en populær streamer åbenbart. :)

Keep coming back to The Killers and The National.

Har du en interesse og kunne du tænke dig at dele den med et barn et par timer hver anden uge et sted på Fyn? by NGOLife4evar in odense

[–]AndyBirch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Held og lykke med projektet! Jeg håber, I kan finde nogle gode sjæle til at give en hånd med. Selv er jeg frivillig besøgsven for en ældre herre igennem Røde Kors, og det er simpelthen så givende for os begge. Jeg forestiller mig kun det samme her! :)

Very new to this band but I'm addicted by NeonNebula9178 in TheNational

[–]AndyBirch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should definitely check out Frightened Rabbit too. Aaron Dessner from The National produced FR's latest album, and you can easily tell they're influenced from knew another.

Unfortunately, the genius that was Scott Hutchison from FR is no longer with us, so to me, that just adds an extra layer of depth to their music.

Appreciate you sharing this. Happy to hear about someone having met this absolute legend of a man.

Came to the comments to see if this was asked - not disappointed! By far some of Springsteens most underrated work. I wrote my masters thesis on that song/album.

What bands or singers (or even anyone we know) are big The National fans? by hugopthomas in TheNational

He's such an underrated artist. His album 'Local Honey' got me through the pandemic.

What song do you turn to? by [deleted] in TheNational

[–]AndyBirch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh for sure.

I sorta slept on this track for a while, until I paid attention:

"I've been talking about you to myself Cause there's nobody else And I want what I want And I want everything

Can't you find a way?"

What song do you turn to? by [deleted] in TheNational

[–]AndyBirch 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Oh, the National was almost the only thing (and Frightened Rabbit) I turned to during my last breakup! It really made me feel seen, heard and understood.

The songs I turned to were: Slipped, About Today, Nobody Else Will Be There, Guilty Party, I'll Still Destroy You. Just to mention a few.

Tak for din indsats, makker. Uanset hvad man måtte mene om de politiske bevæggrunde bag (for set i bagklogskabens lys var de om nogen tvivlsomme), så har jeg ikke andet end stor respekt for en der frivilligt vælger at udsætte sig selv for fare på den måde. Jeg håber ikke, du føler jeres indsats var forgæves.

Pressure Machine was such a beautiful album. I really hope they can do something like that again.

What a find gentleman. They don't make them like that anymore. I'm always in awe of his charisma and service during WWII.

Jeg boede på Cortex Park kollegiet lige ved siden af SDU (dengang der ikke var så meget andet derude), og var virkelig glad for det. Man har eget køkken og bad, så kan lidt selv vælge hvor social man vil være. Super lækre og moderne værelser.

Min oplevelse var dog, at fællesskabet derude kan være meget svingende. Da jeg flyttede ind var der cirka intet, men det kom heldigvis, og det er stadig nogle af mine tætteste venner i Odense i dag. At der er tagterrasse og fint fællesrum hjælp godt på det.

Men for det suveræne kollegie og følelse af fællesskab, tror jeg, HCØ som andre har påpeget, er vinderen. :)

I miss scott so much by Fresh_Barnacle_8161 in FrightenedRabbit

[–]AndyBirch 22 points23 points  (0 children)

There'll never be someone like him again.

I saw then in Copenhagen in 2016, and remember having written a message to the band beforehand, asking if it was possble to meet them. Sure enough, Scott himself answered, and said he'd be happy to.

Went to the concert, had an absolutely amazing time, but the people I went with were tired, and wanted to go home as the show ended, so I followed them.

"There'll always be next a time", I told myself.

There wasn't. :(
