Taylor Swift sings on The National's new cut 'The Alcott'!
Guitarist, pianist and bass player and TayTay collaborator Aaron Dessner says “The Alcott” took its baby steps when Berninger wrote the main part to some music he’d already written. Swift heard it, she dug it, “so I thought it might be something she would really click with,” Dessner says.
“I sent it to her, and was a little nervous as I didn’t hear back for 20 minutes or so. By the time she responded, Taylor had written all her parts and recorded a voice memo with the lyrics she’d added in a dialogue with Matt,” he adds, “and everyone fell immediately in love with it.” “The Alcott” is something a return of favor for Dessner, who worked closely with Swift on her pandemic-era 2020 albumsOn it, Swift and Berninger duet on several verses. “I sit there silently waiting for you to look up/I see you smile when you see it’s me/ I had to do something to break into your golden thinking/ How many times will I do this and you’ll still believe?,” they sing., which peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200, and 2017’s, which hit No.
To give the new collection a nudge along, The National performed album track “Eucalyptus” late Thursday onThe National will perform the new album live when they hit the road for a North American trek, starting May 18 at Auditorium Theatre in Chicago, IL.
