I would love to see lil wayne take this beat and do a freestyle with it and have sound as good as kid cudi's. Haha it would never happen. Kid cudi is a musical genius :)
strings are drowned out by bass on chorus, strings should be brought up on chorus. crucial to ambience. would uplift the song and enhance yhhe underlying melanchony.
but you should check their website, maybe they have an upcoming gig in GA??
I've been stalking their site since earlier this year trying to get tickets for a venue near DC and I happened to get lucky :) I've been waiting for months to see them :D
I've probably never seen a better live band! Saw them at a festival in Ireland last month and they just made everyone sunny even though it was raining :)
@basandwichyo try looking for it on iTunes again, but not on one of their albums, it's on the soundtrack of the movie "Nick & Norah's Infinite PLaylist"
@Papdog1 Their normal drummer is playing, you just can't see him in this video. if you watch "Run" from this same radio performance, you can see him behind the trumpets.
This song shows off Ezra's vocal range incredibly well (man he's got SOO much control over that falsetto) . . . it's a shame not many people hear it. Vampire Weekend are brilliant!
One of my favorite songs!!! I saw them in concert last night in Tempe and they blew me away!!! They are definatly up there with the Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhols.
