The last couple of Three Tune Tuesdays went down the rock route so I am gonna bring it back a bit and present to you a more modern band that I really love. I am big into Paul Simon and his kind of happy tropical music. I love the jingle jangle guitar and the upbeat tempo and there is no modern band that carries this on other than Vampire Weekend. Vampire Weekend are the kind of band that takes you out of cold rainy Ireland and plonks you travelling down the Hamptons mid summer. I think this is why their music is always on in the likes of Hollister and A&F. Now you may think they are a bit teeny bopper for me but I first seen Vampire Weekend at a festival in Ireland and I could not get over how accomplished the entire band were musically. They were like synchronised swimmers. One band member would play a melody, the other guitarist would play it an octave above or an octave below. They were just absolutely brilliant. It was their first ever album and I have been into them ever since. They have matured alot from their first album but each album is excellent in its own right. I even fell in love with one of their album covers Contra. The lady in question did not know she was on the cover of a critically acclaimed album and sued soon after. ![Screenshot 2022-02-13 at 22.15.09.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/blanchy/23uR7iDaZtTmL9gVEnbh2PGu9ahr8jBfXpSWPbDq7dtvzZYoMRTYwy3rkkyGQGWJcFerg.png) [Source](https://www.thelineofbestfit.com/reviews/albums/vampire-weekend-contra-25308) So the three songs I am going to go for are 3 close to my heard. #### 1.Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa So this one is my holiday song. I play it before I go on holiday and when I am on holiday. Holiday holiday holiday. It's just my happy holiday song. I remember being on a beach in Aiya Napa, the song playing, sun shining. I think it was the most perfect few minutes of my life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GA3Sh__LE0&ab_channel=VampireWeekendMix [Source](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GA3Sh__LE0&ab_channel=VampireWeekendMix) ##### Lyrics As a young girl Louis Vuitton With your mother On a sandy lawn As a sophomore With reggaeton And the linens You're sitting on Is your bed made? Is your sweater on? Do you want to fuck? Like you know I do Like you know I do But this feels so unnatural Peter Gabriel too Can you stay up To see the dawn In the colors Of Benetton? Is your bed made? Is your sweater on? Do you want to Like you know I do Like you know I do But this feels so unnatural Peter Gabriel too Is your bed made? Is your sweater on? Do you want to Like you know I do Like you know I do ## 2.White Sky Live When I spoke earlier about melodies and the band being in sync. This song just proves how good these guys are. I have been trying to nail this intro now for a while. It would be a perfect one to get down for a session in a pub. This intro us unreal. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bqf-eNsd94&ab_channel=VampireWeekendMix ### Lyrics An ancient business, a modern piece of glasswork Down on the corner that you walk each day in passin' The elderly sales clerk won't eye us with suspicion The whole, immortal corporation's given its permission A little stairway, a little piece of carpet A pair of mirrors that are facing one another Out in both directions, a thousand little Julias That come together in the middle of Manhattan You waited since lunch It all comes at once Around the corner, the house that modern art built A house for modern art to keep it out the closets The people who might own it, the sins of pride and envy And on the second floor, the Richard Serra Skate Park You waited since lunch It all comes at once Sit on the park wall, ask all the right questions "Why are the horses racing taxis in the winter?" Look up at the buildings, imagine who might live there Imagining your wolfords in a ball upon the sink there You waited since lunch It all comes at once ## 3. A Punk I can't have a vampire weekend medley without A-punk. I t was hard to pick the last one because they have so many songs but it always gives me a little pep up this one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2x1C7jxqKs&list=RDAH8A22_rpes&index=2&ab_channel=BBCMusic Lyrics Johanna drove slowly into the city The Hudson river all filled with snow She spied the ring on His Honor's finger Oh, oh, oh A thousand years in one piece of silver She took it from his lily white hand Showed no fear, she'd seen the thing In the young men's wing at Sloan-Kettering Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey His Honor drove southward seeking exotica Down to the pueblo huts of New Mexico Cut his teeth on turquoise harmonicas Oh, whoa, oh I saw Johanna down in the subway She took an apartment in Washington Heights Half of the ring lies here with me But the other half's at the bottom of the sea Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Look outside at the raincoats coming, say oh Hey, hey, hey, hey Hey, hey, hey, hey
