@Sylvestrian I had the very great pleasure of seeing the National live in concert here last month. They are really brilliant. I've loved the album this is on 'Boxer' for ages. It's got some great tracks. Give it a listen if you're not familiar with their work.
Thanks for the Boxer recommendation, Helen. I'll check it out. I'm late to The National party which is a little surprising since I've been a long-time listener of Clogs, Bryce Dessner's other band. If you're not familiar with it, I recommend their latest album, The Creatures in the Garden of Lady Walton, which features Aaron Dessner and Matt Berninger from The National as well as Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond) and Sufjan Stevens.

The accordion adds a melancholy tinge to the song and the closing lyrics are a fine way to address one's dream person.
