They're ok....unique is an overstatement. Download anything from Paul Simon to Rusted Root and you'll see that what Mr.Konig n the other blood suckers have been doing is sampling their parents records. Still in they are ok and a fun listen.
i love this song it reminds me of all the times i took the M79 across the park to see my friends high school volleyball regional games. they actually played a bunch of "french kids" because there is a french school up in that neighborhood on 82 st. either way this song is great and its even cooler they got it all in one take
hey guys ! wooow what you are doing is amaziiing , i was just wondering if there´s any way i can get that violin sheet , cause i've been looking for it and i cant find it anywhere thanks !
Something I will never forgive Vampire Weekend for is that infectious melodic caterwauling they have a habit of injecting into so many of their songs.
i'm 65 must have been in a cave for the last few years...so who should I thank??? Honda??? Guess so. These people are fantastic...some of the best music I've ever heard!!! Gotta have some. THANKS THANKS THANKS
EVERYBODY: Look, I love this band too, but you're taking funky13onkey's comment too personally. He or she's just sharing his or her thought. The way people are reacting to free speech is astonishing. Sure, you can say something back and try to get a debate going, but don't just say "screw you *uckwad" as a response to a personal opinion.
You guys are all stupid. These guys are NOT spoiled or rich. Ezra does admit that hes far from rich, still paying his student loan. Now you might go, "BUT WHY DO THEY WEAR ALL THIS GAY SHIT LIKE GRANNY SWEATERS, COLORFUL CLOTHING AND SCARVES?" Why do you give a fuck (about an Oxford Comma)? You're gonna criticize people because of how they dress? Please. I can't make people like a band, but people are hating them for all the wrong reasons.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The way the singer, well...sings...is annoying. On another superficial note...wtf is up with that grandma sweater? File this band under "music for well-adjusted white kids who live in gated communities"
@funky13onkey You're going to decisively claim that anyone wearing a 'grandma sweater' is 'well-adjusted' and live in a 'gated community'. You have no clue, here's a start. Look at the lyrics in their songs, that's a hint... Maybe the skin of your heaad will begin thinning, if you catch my drift.
I could watch this a billion times!
