I have recently become a huge fan of Vampire Weekend.
Hearing of them for the first time in "Spin" magazine, I promptly listening to them on a Barnes and Noble listening station. I was so happy that I did that. This band is one of those that will bring a little bit of extra joy to your day.
The mixes in styles is great too. There's a bit of pop, punk, ska, a little bit of 50's, all measured together to bring about something new and exciting. Though those genres barely describe the sound you'll hear. You'll love the catchy tunes, and lyrics.
Congrats to these Ivy League grads for pursuing music, you've brought us all a great album! All the songs on their debut, and self titled album will leave you with a bubbly feeling in side (for lack of a better word). I encourage you all to check them out!
I love how the video for the song is so simple, fun, and tells a little story, but simple.
"Oxford Comma" lyrics:
Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma?
I've seen those English dramas tooThey're cruel
so if there's any other way
To spell a word
It's fine with me, with me
Why would you speak to me that way
Especially when I always said that I
Haven't got the words for you
All your diction dripping with disdain
Through the pain
I always tell the truth
Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma?
I climbed to Dharamsala too, I did
I met the highest lama
His Accent sounded fine
To me, to me
Check your handbook
It's no trick
Take the chapstick
Put it on your lips
Crack a smile
Adjust my Tie
Know your boyfriend, unlike other guys
Why would you lie about how much coal you have?
Why would you lie about something dumb like that?
Why would you lie about anything at all?
first the window, then it's through the wall
Lil' Jon, he always tells the truth
Check you passport
It's no trick
Take the chapstick
Put it on your lips
Crack a smile
Adjust my tie
Know your butler, unlike other guys
Why would you lie about how much coal you have?
Why would you lie about something dumb like that?
Why would you lie about anything at all?
First the window, then it's through the wall
Why would you tape my conversations?
Show your paintings
At the United Nations
Lil' Jon, he always tells the truth
