Sierra Smith have you seen the live performances on last weeks tonight show? Holy cow I hadn’t heard “New York Jerusalem Berlin yet.” Jimmy Fallon says nails it when he says, “perfect.” That’s this album, perfect. I hope to see them for my 40th birthday in my hometown, Boston in the fall. ❤️
finally a comment about this album I can relate to. Why does it cause tears of joy? I can't put my finger on whether I found out about the album the day I came out the hospital from a dangerous issue... & I felt like it was the biggest gift. Can't wait to see them in concert in september :')
Yes, I know!! it's so beautifu and different but amazingl. Im all here for Danielle / haim to be featured on some more singles and ep's and albums and whatever by vampire weekend
LYRICS: "[Verse 1: Ezra Koenig] Something's happening in the country And the government’s to blame We got married in a gold rush And the rush has never felt the same [Verse 2: Danielle Haim] Shared a moment in a café Shared a kiss in pouring rain We got married in a gold rush And the sight of gold will always bring me pain [Chorus: Ezra Koenig & Danielle Haim] I don't wanna hear the rumors, please don't say it loud I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud Boy, who’s your baby? Girl, if you don't know by now There's two seats on the midnight train The gold won't weigh us down [Verse 3: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both] Hanging gardens turned to desert All that loving turned to hate We got married in a gold rush And those wedding bells were ringing out our fate [Chorus: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both] I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud Boy, who's your baby?

Having a song where the female singer has a slight masculinity to her voice and a male singer has a slightly androgynous voice is a thing of pure genius
My mum bought the cd for this album and kept telling me about her new "Vampire Brides" album. Then when I assured her it wasn't vampire brides, she kept thinking it was "Vampire Garden."
Ok Ezra this was a double album so we gave you a grace period but it is TIME for a new VW album. You and I are the same age. We're gonna be 40 soon. you gotta put one out before we're 40 bro. I love you.
This song was stuck in my head the entire day I spent in DC waiting to see The Twilight Sad at U Street Music Hall (which ended in disappointment, James blew his voice out four songs in and they had to cut the show short). I did finally see Vampire Weekend live in Norfolk a few months later. They didn't play this song. 😞

it's about a couple that fell out of love after years of being married and now they're trying to fix things. the got married during a time where it all felt wonderful (a gold rush) but things got sour soon afterward ("all that loving turned to hate").
This song reminds me of the time I was in the semiunfinished basement of my old house. I was playing guitar and I was looking at the ceiling. I noticed a spider that built its web around the exposed lightbulb near the ceiling. It was a perfect spot to catch bugs. I thought about how people say when you die you go towards the light. I thought about how most people are naturally afraid of spiders. I thought about reincarnation. I thought about how most things that move around have mouths to eat. I thought about a giant INTERDIMENSIONAL spider . Ha Idk why thats caps. I cant spell. And going towards the light to be devoured by this resourceful universe spider. It freaks me out. I liked most of the other releases so far from this album more and im excited to buy the record eventually. Woo.
this is beauty
this is grace
vampire weekend has caused tears of joy to run down my face
Sierra Smith this album is FANTASTIC isn't it?
Sarah Clark it sure is

I love this song too much. Danielle's voice is so amazing.
Yes, I know!! it's so beautifu and different but amazingl. Im all here for Danielle / haim to be featured on some more singles and ep's and albums and whatever by vampire weekend
it's like a 60s style duet but with two of my favorite singers... I can't
Exactlyyy its soo good!
Yeah, inspired by June and Johnny Cash on the song 'Jackson' I think
This album is it. THIS ALBUM IS IT
I've listened to it once and I'm already willing to call it one of the best albums I've ever heard.
THIS ALBUM IS LIT
THIS ALBUM IS LIT
I fear for the future.
LYRICS:
"[Verse 1: Ezra Koenig]
Something's happening in the country
And the government’s to blame
We got married in a gold rush
And the rush has never felt the same
[Verse 2: Danielle Haim]
Shared a moment in a café
Shared a kiss in pouring rain
We got married in a gold rush
And the sight of gold will always bring me pain
[Chorus: Ezra Koenig & Danielle Haim]
I don't wanna hear the rumors, please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who’s your baby?
Girl, if you don't know by now
There's two seats on the midnight train
The gold won't weigh us down
[Verse 3: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
Hanging gardens turned to desert
All that loving turned to hate
We got married in a gold rush
And those wedding bells were ringing out our fate
[Chorus: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who's your baby?
Girl, if you don't know by now
There’s two seats on the midnight train
The gold won’t weigh us down
[Verse 4: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
The rush is on to somewhere else, we're running out of time
Everything was ours, now it’s just an empty mine
Animals don't understand the words on the danger sign
For them, it's just some shade from the morning shine
I thought you might learn the language
I thought you might learn to sing
We were born before the gold rush
So why can't I remember anything?
I want to put things back together
I wanna give, I don’t wanna take
Time to disavow the gold rush
And the bitterness that's flourished in its wake
[Chorus: Ezra Koenig, Danielle Haim & Both]
I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
Please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who's your baby?
Girl, if you don't know by now
There's two seats on the midnight train
The gold won't weigh us down
I don't wanna hear the rumours, please don't say it loud
Please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who's your baby?
Girl, if you don't know by now
There's two seats on the midnight train
The gold won't weigh us down".

Thanks for texting up the lyrics
Brilliant song! Who else has the creativity and the guts to make this kind of music any more? So uncool it's cool by default.
Exactly hahaha. Got that same feeling with "Stranger" and "Sympathy"
The best part is that they did it so well that they are getting every bit of the recognition they deserve.
very retro feel
@@hoze1235 LMFAO retro to what??
@@adamv242 Uh...music from the 1960s?
Love, love their voices together. And the lyrics. Fantastic.
Haim and vampire weekend?? am I actually dreaming right now??
This album is a flat out masterpiece. I'm sure it will alienate some fans who don't like bands to expand on their sound.
Nailed it. Pure genius.
They've morphed perfectly with Brian Robert Jones at guitar
This song or Flower Moon is my favorite on the entire record, the duet is just so beautiful and warm
If you add a banjo and a mandolin, it instantly becomes a classic country song.
I hope Ezra keeps experimenting and isn't afraid of trying new things. Keep it up. It sounds awesome.
I can't wait for sony to make the vampire weekend/spider man crossover
Sunflower/Sunflower mash-up
@@helliop By Post-Weekend, so... I guess the band Happy Mondays.
bad news for you sony sold spidy rights to disny 3 years ago jojks
Having a song where the female singer has a slight masculinity to her voice and a male singer has a slightly androgynous voice is a thing of pure genius
Nice catch
Please do a music video of this one!!! This was my absolute favorite track off this new album!
"i thought you might learn to sing" wow can't believe danielle completely roasted ezra in his own song
Slayed him
He's an amazing singer tho
They are amazing together
hahahahaha my exact thoughts every time that part comes on hahahahahaha
@@WiloPolis03 Not live he's not.
I listened to the first few seconds and knew I loved this song. It's become one of my favourite songs ever
best duet in a lonnnnnnnnnng time
The "we got married in a gold rush" reminds me of Johnny Cash and June Carter..."We got married in a fever "
The whole structure of the song feels like it's working off the sort of traditional duet song structure in pop doesn't it.
this is my favorite one from the album ,the girl part are awesome
Her delivery is perfect
I’m seeing their concert next week, I’m so excited!
I was really hoping for a video for this song! Definitely my favorite of the new album
"...make my baby proud"
"Boy, who's your baby?"
"Girl, if you don't know about now...."
😘
Love a duet that also sounds like the singers are competing
My mum bought the cd for this album and kept telling me about her new "Vampire Brides" album. Then when I assured her it wasn't vampire brides, she kept thinking it was "Vampire Garden."
Vampire Garden is a whole mood
Please, come to Mexico this year!!!
Sí vendrán ;)
ooh can't wait for a live version of this
Why are they all just so amazing
Love Vampire Weekend!
Love it😭
I thoroughly enjoyed this, you guys haven't lost it have you? 😁
i love this song
very retro vibe
This song is so good!!!! 🌍❤️
I'm in heaven now! Thank you VW!
Ok Ezra this was a double album so we gave you a grace period but it is TIME for a new VW album. You and I are the same age. We're gonna be 40 soon. you gotta put one out before we're 40 bro. I love you.
Did you like the new one?
fave song

Best country song of 2019

La canción de mi boda ❤

No 1 on Billboard 200 chart /2019.05.18

Danielle Haim

Yay! A new one!
It's so nice that Danielle didn't offer food to ezra and ariel, instead she delivered Vocals
i'm just here for her = Danielle Haim
“boy, who’s your baby?”
Something's happening in the country
And the government’s to blame
We got married in a gold rush
And the rush has never felt the same
Shared a moment in a café

We got married in a gold rush
And the sight of gold will always bring me pain
I don't wanna hear the rumors, please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who’s your baby?
Girl, if you don't know by now

Hanging gardens turned to desert

And those wedding bells were ringing out our fate

I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud

So why can't I remember anything?
I want to put things back together

Please don't say it loud
I just wanna go out tonight and make my baby proud
Boy, who's your baby?

What’s this song about?
it's about a couple that fell out of love after years of being married and now they're trying to fix things. the got married during a time where it all felt wonderful (a gold rush) but things got sour soon afterward ("all that loving turned to hate").
Okay, I love it and I love you all and please don't take this the wrong way, but this one sounds like Let's Duet by goddamn Dewey Cox.
the beginning sounds like Discovery's swing tree
this song could be the prequel to hannah hunt from the last album or maybe the conclusion
Siuuuuu
Oh hi!
we got married in a fever, hotter than a pepper sprout.
First thing I thought of too when I heard that line!
Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne?
This song reminds me of the time I was in the semiunfinished basement of my old house. I was playing guitar and I was looking at the ceiling. I noticed a spider that built its web around the exposed lightbulb near the ceiling. It was a perfect spot to catch bugs. I thought about how people say when you die you go towards the light.

I was here when there were still "No views"
so?
Do u want a cookie
@@roberthardy5171 I missed the time when Robert Handy wasn't here.
Sooooooo funny 😆
Diggin all the songs with Danielle. Almost shoulda did a duet album
No no No
Yes yes yes
I am honored to be here before 500 views!
Lol nobody cares it's not a big deal
june carter/johnny cash vibes yee yee
kind of takes me back to a nit of green day days
I’m not entirely in love with yeehaw weekend
Your loss
97 % of the songs are about women men love & so on. What about songs for singles.
angry joe
Vampire Weekend just isn't as good since Rostam left the band. The first 3 VW albums are by far their best.
Makes no sense. But I like the melody.
Terrible
Holy shit this is so bland lmao
Sucks
Worst song on the album by quite a bit.
