One (Blake's Got A New Face)-Vampire Weekend

[Musicfan5ft8]

If you walk up to someone in the middle of the street and shout 'BLAAAAAAKKKKKEEES GOT A NEW FACE!!', in their face, interesting things will happen

[iLukeMorgan]

good for blake. 

[footygoodness]

The meaning is that a friend named blake got plastic surgery because a girl shot him down and said he was ugly. At least I think.

[SamsaraOfTranquility]

blaaAAAAkes xD

[Bloodydigger]

@bobs192 you're a madman, what reference/s?

[bobs192]

[ilovelucy456]

[akronzips101]

yet another vampire weekend song that can be interpreted into so many meanings. But does any one have a solid meaning to this song?

[bbrraabbiitt]

@akronzips101 i wonder the same, does the song have a solid meaning???

[iglooboy31]

i had no idea how many other people there were in the world with the same name as me, until i saw the comments on this video. i kind of want to know all of you now :P

[Pagra101]

Benjamin Harrison is the 23rd president of the United States of America

[emmiibaybee13]

@freakguitar1 Why are you listening to it then? :L

[freakguitar1]

@emmiibaybee13 :D

because i have to. i work in a store and i am not allowed to skip or change music. and they are always the same songs, so at a certain time of the day, my braincells just die :D

[jesshomemovies]

I love the mix of the african drums and the drum kit!

[MidKnight3388]

"She sat on my face! FACE" "He shat on my face, FACE, shat on my face!

[Calicocelot]

[RayCrayon16]

EARGASM

[Blakey1931]

[Tonezone]

Crazy ass chorus about Blake's new face, lol. I love it.

By the way, am I the only one think it sounds like Sting singing in the chorus?

[fridayinlovely]

BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE!!!

[shellybelly944]

Question, i know theres a story withing the song but what is it, its going to bug me until i figure it out, what i got from the song is-i think it has something to do with college prep schools and a kid making a business while his friends are trapped.i think the trapped in the sweatshirts bearing absolute horror are his friends. and that he did something great that pulled him out of the rowboat conglomerate. hens the theory of "making a business" i cant quit put my finger on it , mind helping???

[MrUkuleletime]

@shellybelly944 Im pretty sure the song has to do with Ezra's movie called Vampire Weekend

[EFFIsAFraud]

I drink Sierra Nevada and work on my computer in this awesome hotel lounge w/ a fireplace and the whole shebang.

Except the music generally sux. And, then this idiotic, repetitive crap comes on almost every night.

Yeah I get it. He has a new face. I don't need to freaking hear it 60 times in 3 min 12 sec.

We used to have Stones, Clapton, Hendrix, Eagles, Beck, Beatles etc.

Now we have this crap.

I can get any 4 high school music students to put together better music than this

[gpgarry]

@EFFIsAFraud look you see if we wanted to her this we would have gone to some random chat room and talked about it but you see i love how you listen to a song you hate just so you can tell people you hate it now go away and live them alone. no one wants your input, we listen to them because we want to.

[soysaucesausage]

@EFFIsAFraud

we dont strickly NEED to hear 'Na nananana Hey jude' 60 times in the beatles song, but doesnt that make it way cooler?

I dunno, the repetition suits this songs style. Its chords are as varied as the beatles mainstream stuff also, i dont see the huge difference.

[njskiinglegend]

@EFFIsAFraud hey hey you! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face. BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE! BLAKE's gotta new face.

[mrgor24]

blake's got a new face.... BLAKE'S GONNA GET RAPED

[boomergaty]

Awesomeness

[LOOKoutITSspiderpig]

blake's got a new face... BLAKE'S GOT A NEW FACE!

so good live ♥

[CaliforniAgirl723]

this song got stuck in my head, and i sang it all day at school.... everyone got mad at me, they dont understand.....

[gpgarry]

@CaliforniAgirl723  i understand same thing happend to me!

[blake119538]

Isn't it weird when your name is in a song.

[FHockeyGal71]

@blake119538 that isn't my name but still.

[spankycorkforker]

this song gave me a new face and I'm not even named blake!

[MarinasDiamond]

I don't know why, but when the rest of the band repeat "blake's got a new face" i always think of the nameless fish that eat in the Krusty Krab in Spongebob :L

[RumbleCow]

@MarinasDiamond maybe its because blake sounds just like blank and since the fish are nameless but are different appearance wise you caterogize them all as *blanks* with new faces. therefore *blanks got a new face* . either that of your just crazy :P

[MrSuperTevez]

@MarinasDiamond No offense but thats kinda retarded.

[wackedoutfive]

I am Blake and I most definitely do not have a new face.

[MrSuperTevez]

@wackedoutfive If vampire weekend say you have a new face THEN YOU HAVE A NEW FACE .

[GodhandXo]

I want to see Blakes new face:(

[59btown]

Bless you to whoever sneezed at 2:22

[laceyssmiling]

@59btown It's part of the song. Hahaha

[aldie2k9]

hadnt heard of them till like a week ago but now i love them

[frogsindanger448]

Glastonbury 2010 'blakes got a new face' ... Epic!!!!

[oXmissemilyXo]

I used to work at a grocery store with this guy named Blake and I would always sing the chorus to him and he loved it. :] XD

[ZippyZappy13]

I've got a new face? lolwat.

[TheJenstar10]

i love these guys they r awesom love this song, and their new album is brill!

[meNmaHOODIE]

BLAKESSS! got a new face...love how he screams it out :))

[littledragonred]

Love it!! @emmaforsale and I have made it our official mayhem anthem...

[hellohellogreenolive]

saw these guys on the 13.5.10 in sydney, absolutely incredible!!!

[vytis86]

Can't help but feel so freakin happy listening to these guys music :D :D :D.

[srm8041]

Saw these guys in Brisbane last night.. This song was a standout at an awesome gig..

[TheGrilledWatermelon]

The grilled watermelon does not deem this song worthy

[PufferSpish]

My boyfriend's name is Blake. I sang this to him, he had NO IDEA what I was doing. haha

[shellieiossa]

I love this song and my kids do too, but they think they're singing "I've got new toothpaste."

[theatregirl221]

@shellieiossa You are an awesome parent.

[daltoni7]

Such a fun song live...saw them last night

[teamsuperspazm]

@handlebarWM mate fuck off dont comment on it if you think its shit you dick

[cobbtothejay]

we sing this to my friend blake REALLY loudly... he gets kinda annoyed.... but ITS WORTH IT COS IT ROCKS MY WORLD

love vampire weekend :D

[turtlepanzer]

I think it must be an inside experience about a friend who got plastic surgery or changed in some way.

[CecilEubanks]

"Oh your collegiate grief has left you dowdy in sweatshirts, absolute horror!" - probably one of my favorite lyrics from the entire album.

[ukanix]

Not trying to start anything here, but seriously, their lyrics have metaphor symbolism and subtext, some of the lyrics might be inside jokes as well, but they don't write nonsense music I'm sure, these guys graduated from Columbia University after all.

[cath1890]

oh ezra! i love u.

[MmMmAriA114]

Is this song like an inside personal experience between the band because I can't understand what its abput st all but it's so catchy that I love it!

[DJSheard0]

none of their lyrics really make any sense, i dont think they are really supposed to be that meaningful

[youwannayohk]

BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKES GOT A NEW FACE!!!

What is this song even about?

[Martyrmaul]

Probably about nothing really. It's just hilariously fun to sing.

[dmackendog]

damn these idiots fighting on youtube about worthless crap makes me want to punch a baby

[ItsOnlyPaolaCrayola]

vampire weekend makes me smile all the time (:

[ChaChongChing]

For the last time, i dont care what you say about my mom. She can go suck dicks i dont fucking care. I just think that a person who listens to M.I.A and N.W.A shouldn't be a critic to anything. I see where u come from, this song isn't the greatest but theres no reason to diss it. People have different tastes in music. I don't know why you can't face the fact that theres different kind of music out there. And just to let you know Your witty remarks are over done, a simple Fuck you works too.

[vivalavida814]

These guys make me want to go out and buy a Polo shirt.

[ChestaGY]

i agree with this fella underneath......youtubes for leisure and pleasure, not for arguments.

it's really sad, look on almost every single video on youtube and there you will find people arguing lol oh and medpointe, come down off your high horse, no one cares

[cuzimdonniedarko]

Internet brawls....wow.

Unlike others, i came to this video because i like this song. Great band Vampire Weekend.

Recent album is great too.

[ChaChongChing]

haha oh ya im so hurt, gonna go cut my wrists now thanks a lot; And ya you've already said that mommy jerking off comment before, u should mix it up. No i just thought i'd speak for everyone after all the comments you've left on this video you deserve it you M.I.A Fucker. You think u have a good taste in music N.W.A and M.I.A you are a fucking joke haha.

[ChaChongChing]

Haha oh you're so creative, I like how you told story and i like how you're burning Vampire Weekend when you won't suceed to anything as close as them.

FUCK YOU FAGGOT GROW A PAIR YOU DICK SUCKING MOTHER FUCKER

[psychedelicunicycle]

I would like to know. Why do you find it important to share the fact that you "make lots of money" to the world? Enlighten me, you're only making yourself out to be a pompous douchebag.

[ChaChongChing]

wooahh calm down medpointe. How bout you take your meds and stop being a Douchebag.

[SecretMeeting3]

Ha sensative huh? I think annoyed is a better word. Secret meeting is a song by The National, btw.. No one cares about how much money u make either ha!

[DancerProductionsx3]

love this :D

[stephhxc]

so i've heard that chris tomson, the drummer, is mad chill. my friend corey and his friends used to have a joke and would sing "gaaaabe's, got a boner!" and corey interviewed chris and ezra and asked them to sing it in their concert that night, but ezra kind of looked at him like he was an idiot. but chris thought it was an awesome idea and sang it to corey, lmao. they seem mad awesome, and this song is amazing.

[SecretMeeting3]

MedPointe is an idiot. If you don't like what's here, go search something you do like. Of course we all have our likes/dislikes, but the person who uploaded this video (CharmedSparkles) probably doesn't want to hear you bitch about not liking this video. Plus this is a sweet song, by a cool band. You don't have to receive a free song download from Starbucks to appreciate it either.

[imdarb]

Why are people listening to music they dont like, then saying how bad it is? If you don't like it, then just don't listen to it.

[arl9qd]

Wow such hate. I'll agree that this song isn't that great, but I actually like some of their more popular work and I have high hopes for their next album.

[hilltoploser]

Alright. I get the whole freedom of speech jazz, but seriously, WHAT THE FUCK?! IF you don't like it that's all well and good, move on with your life. But to say shit like this is utterly ridiculous. Do you honestly have nothing better to do with your life other than to post hateful filth such as this?

[JoelForde]

Very true haha. I just dont understand how this band ever got signed. they just release the same song over and over again

[DexterAndCromwell]

Haha ridiculous. You arse.

[pboyfritz]

why didn't your mom swallow you and do us all a huge favor! joelford how did you even get inside put out. Go smack your mom just for the name she gave you n/m how she raised you with no respect to your elders and people who will make money than you for the rest of thier life. go get educated. Go strap your mom to you with a rope and jump in the ocean you useless faggot. Your a misserable piece of shit just because your name is joel you dont even have the right to speak. DONT HAVE KIDS!

[JoelForde]

how did this band get this song to be recorded, produced, and put on an album

[TheDuzenberry]

Lol you have come back for months to try to make people who are even the slightset bit different than you feel bad. Personally, I am thankful to God above that not everyone is like you! :-)

[vampireweekend4eva12]

blake's got a new face! awesomeness!

[vivalitro]

this song is soo funny

like all songs of vampire weekend :)

[thundermaze003]

I really like the drums in this song.

[emoxplosian]

@thundermaze003 the drums are always good in all there songs,ALL

[pemaelizabeth]

it is really pathetic that you have to brag how many "chicks" you have allegedly... what is that beautiful and intelligent phrase you used? what was it... "deep dicked".

how sad for you. are you feeling the pity?

[pemaelizabeth]

and that person down below... danielle... she TOLD you she was a girl! obviously you didn't read the comment properly, because it says it quite clearly.

[pemaelizabeth]

i just read all your comments medpointe and you should really go outside more often. despite your claims of having had numerous sexual encounters, you are a 30-odd year old male who gets his kicks from arguing with teenagers... COOL!

[tjyff]

whenever i stick up for fat chicks they email me their number and we do the nasty.

[fabittyfab]

Does anyone comment on the music anymore? Nonetheless your nonsense makes me laugh.

As does this song.

VW is great.

[ashleelmb]

Ive been looking for this song since May 2009 when I firstst heard it being played down the phone to me when I was on hold to 3 customer services and at last, ive found it! Yeah!

[franksy08]

lmao same as

[ddaanniieellee1]

you sure are smart arnt you?

funny that last time i checked danielle was a girls name.

And I happen to know one of the fat girls you are fighting with, and I think it is a big mistake judging people by their comments, because she is certainly not overweight.

[ddaanniieellee1]

dear loser,

i really do think you should spend less of your time telling teenagers that they need a life, and perhaps go and get one yourself.

[FragileBelief]

That comment makes zero sense. I happen to know that wild beasts cannot type correctly, nor can they register on YouTube. I'd be suprised if they could even use a computer. And I also happen to know that the language you refer to as a "third world cesspools filthy latin" is Swedish. And we "Sweeds" have something you Americans, nay, no other country has.

The word "lagom". Suck it, biatch.

[clarisspontania]

You are SO boring and unintelligent. No one's upset because you voiced your pathetic opininion, although why you would bother to diss something you dont even care about is utterly bewildering, its simply because you are a dickhead, and should be told so until you realise that its true. Because its true. You are an absolute wanker.

[invisiblelove20]

I'm hotter than you could imagine, and i don't listen to this music. Just watched this video because my friend said it was "deep". And why do you make this such a big deal? Grow up. Seriously.

[anncedswe]

haha I'm not even a boy so your probably right. but i pwn anyways, 'cause I have boobs, so FU! :D

[clarisspontania]

All prostitutes.

[clarisspontania]

I suggest you seek some professional help considering you obviously don't have any friends/family who actually like you or any kind of relationship with a normal human being at all. Get off YouTube and stop playing guitar hero, get outside and get a life. I pity you. I really do.

[needusername12]

music is just sound that catches the attention of peoples ears...(brains really) lol there is no such thing as BAD or WRONG music.

[anncedswe]

MedPointe, you are going to die a very lonely man.

[BlissfulMorose]

This song puts a smile on my face. :p

[FrannieBannanie18]

I heared this song when I was at macy's and I startede singing out loud

[outkastedchoir787]

Lol, my boyfriend and a couple of his bandmates are performing this song for Dada surrealism day. It's going to be awesome.

[heystopwiththattv]

What an insult bringing art to anti-art

jk

I love vampire weekend

[Mystifier122]

Lame :-(

[Lightcloud15]

I don't get it... LOL! They sing this at my work like all day long!

[RuPeRt6000]

Given that I go to a school called Blake, how could we help but not love this song?

[J0kErEvan]

still once again with the unneeded comments... its pointless to try to drag down other people likes and dislikes... i mean i love bands like Del Shannon and the misfits, and anti nowhere league... but i also like Sega music and shit like that... music is music... and people are people... dont categorize them like shipping meat... live and let live... we are entitled to our own opinions... but that doesn't mean to blatantly go out of your way to make fun of people... but live and let live...

[J0kErEvan]

how man? it's just music... go home and listen to nothing... jeeze man... come on... why attack other for liking something... how is one song or one band a drain on society... yeah man i believe Lennon or Stalin listened to Vampire weekend... come on man be rational... anyways... live and let live... really when you think about it... it's just music... and i can hip to that man.

[sherma11]

i dont get this song?

[SESCHU1978]

No realy never thought of it. Like my job I got. But thanks

[needusername12]

i dont think its only people that think that their opinion matter more but also people who push ideaollogy or anything and can't admit they are wrong

[oasisrgood1]

can anyone else only ever hear "hollywood swinging" by kool and the gang

the sample was also used for mase's "feel so good" for any hip-hop fans

its scarily similar

[TheEpicGorilla]

you do realise that instead of making a single valid point in any of your comments youve just called anyone who disagrees with you an emo? If thats not the essence of stupidity then i dont know what is =/

Then we have some thing in common.
