this song is GREAT! 1st time listening to this band today and i already love it... these lyrics remind me of resident evil thou, but instead of racoon city its cape cod;
"The name of the group comes from the movie of the same name that Ezra and his friends made over summer vacations. Ezra plays the main character, Walcott, who has to go to Cape Cod to tell the mayor that vampires are coming." - Wikipedia on Ezra Koenig.
They're amazing! This was the last song they played last night in Radio City Music Hall in NYC. I was there, and it was INSANE! People went crazy, dancing, singing, CRYING. I love them!!
I went to their concert in Troutdale, OR a few days ago when it was pouring down rain (the concert was outside), and this was the last song they played in the encore. This is one of my favorite songs ever, and it made my day. Everybody at the concert was completely soaked from standing out in the rain for five hours, but they were all singing along, and it was just fun ...you had to be there. Now this song always makes me happy when I hear it <3
new jersey is amazing. i dont care how its portrayed on television. every state has sluts just not all of them get televised. so forget what impressions you got from real housewives of new jersey or the jersey shore. the real new jersey is in places like Montclaire and Ocean Grove not atlantic city
Come on now, Hyannisport is NOT a ghetto. I love it here... it's beautiful. So ethnically diverse, great food, the Kennedy legacy. I don't ever regret moving here. =]
They really do describe cape cod very well. provincetown gay reference, lesbos in wellfleet, hyannisport is actually the nicer part of hyannis but hey whatever everywhere else in hyannis is pretty sketchy, who doesnt wanna get outta crap cod
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
and its 'fuck the women from wellesley" i.e. the college where hillary clinton attended. the bears out in provice town refers to Brown University. Glad these boys have enough sense not to beef with dartmouth.
@gontijojohn nope your wrong about the provincetown line. provincetown is a town on the tip of cape cod that is a known gay hangout. hes reffering to the hairt gay men that walk around commercial street also known as "bears"
This song is the first one by VW. The name Vampire Weekend comes from a movie that the singer, Ezra, was a part of. The plot was about a boy named Walcott who had to get out of Cape Cod to warn the mayor about a vampire attack before the whole town was taken over. The movie was called Vampire Weekend.
I've had this song stuck in my head for a month...Then I heard it playing at a gift store, rushed up to the counter and asked what it was. Thing is, the cashier gave me the wrong name, but I figured it out eventually with my friend's help.
i used to live in cape cod like 3 years ago and we got out of there just in time my friend Tony saw a bloody women and he has NEVER lied to me before and my friends were smokin weed and shit like that bongs
Everyone who loves vampire weekend and thinks they should be played more on the radio copy and paste this to show your true vampire love.
