    "comment": "Good morning, happy (black) Friday, and welcome to The Morning Show with the wonderful Kevin Sur. We’re so glad you’re here!\n--\nCarin Besser is a former fiction editor for The New Yorker and has often contributed to The National's songwriting. She co-wrote this song with her husband, Matt Berninger:\n\n\"It was a way for us to tiptoe into dark territory without actually having to talk about those things,\" he explained to The Guardian. \"Most of the songs are about things I’m afraid of or things I really want to hold on to. A lot of it is about inhabiting alternate realities and digging into it. It’s confessional but it’s not autobiographical, if that makes sense. It’s emotionally confessional, but the details aren’t always specific to my stuff. Some of it is just made up.\"\n--\nSee the dreamy, psychedelic video for this fine song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71xmrULJ-ms",
