Your Second Attempt At This Song Of The Week

2010 May 16

The National – Sorrow

*sigh*

So The National’s latest album, High Violet, is actually out, so I hope posting this mp3 is cool now. And just because maybe some people already listened to this song the first time I posted it, I’m going to add this performance of “Afraid of Everyone” on Letterman.

Edit: Just listen to “Bloodbuzz Ohio”, which is embedded in the comment below.

    Hi CajoleJuice,

    On behalf of Beggars, 4AD and The National, we would kindly ask you not to post copies of “High Violet” on your site (or any non-preview tracks from the newly released album by The National).

    We do appreciate that you are fans of / are promoting The National, but the labels and artist would greatly appreciate your co-operation in removing your links to the pirate files in question.

    Thank you for respecting the artist’s wishes and, if you / your readers want good quality, non-pirated, preview tracks, then a full length, high quality version of “BloodBuzz Ohio” is available for fans and bloggers to link to / post / host etc from http://www.highviolet.com/thenational_bloodbuzzohio.mp3 and “Afraid of Everyone” is now also available from http://www.soundcloud.com/ninasles/afraid-of-everyone-the-national … .. for further details of the new album, on-line promotions, videos and 2010 shows, check-out the official site, as well as the band’s MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/thenational and YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/beggars … .. and keep an eye on these official sources for details of further news, preview material and on-line promotions.

    Also and as a goodwill gesture to fans and bloggers, an exclusive preview stream of the full album is currently available via KCRW “On Demand” at http://www.kcrw.com/music/programs/ap/ap100503the_national_high_vi … .. this is for hyper-linking only and so that fans can stream directly off KCRW, so please reciprocate this goodwill gesture by NOT ripping and re-hosting these files. Last, but not least, keep an eye on pitchfork.com/tv/ for the “Castle Rock Sessions” featuring live versions of tracks off “High Violet”.

    With Thanks & Regards,
