The New Pornographers have been regular guests on Late Night — they’d previously done “My Rights Versus Yours” and “The Laws Have Changed” on the show — so David Letterman warmly welcomed the band back for “Sweet Talk, Sweet Talk.” Neko Case was on hand for this performance (she traded verses with Kathryn Calder) as well as a four-person clapping section. This brings their live lineup to 132 people, I think.

Together is out now via Matador.

  1. It’s Paul Shaffer’s oh-so-subtle Canada Day booking… New Pornographers for when the clock turned to July 1 and Tokyo Police Club (Ontario) for tonight.

  2. What do you mean by Neko traded verses with Kathryn? Kathryn has always sung lead vocals on that song.

    Anyway, it was a pretty great performance, and you could tell they were happy to be there!

  3. My favorite song off this album.

    Looks like it kicks ass live too :)
