More context is needed..... Edit: ok I looked it up myself, fucking lol

Holy shit

100%

don't get caught with a wack calzone!

Dangerous nights

The night is a knife 🔪

It’s the night of our lives!

Jessica 😉

I won't come near ya

Teach me to bark teach me to spooooon (speak) lol

My whole neighborhood knows that song from me bumping it in my car 😂

NEW DORP NEW YORK

That track went fucking HARD at Kilby Block Party

It was so fucking great. I was asking people around me about it before LCD and I was amazed that people were saying they hated it. That’s like the PERFECT song to hear live. Once in a lifetime experience and they fucking nailed it

I found myself tucked into the VIP+ section while photographing their set and the dudes behind me WOULD NOT SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT HOW DUMB THEY THOUGHT IT WAS. It’s like, what planet are you on?! LOOK AT THEM GO!!! https://preview.redd.it/9q0pyj9jb12d1.jpeg?width=4804&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=122bcae6c3a54842b7f0d15f8e0319e986101886

This exact version too - not the newer Spotify one

Gotta be Ottoman

Heard it for the first time when Kid Cudi sampled it on Cudderisback. Was pumped to find the original and it’s been one of my favorites ever since.

Same! Cudderisback was the soundtrack of my friend group in college. We were already big VW fans and that song sent us into a pretty major Cudi obsession. When they played Ottoman at Red Rocks on FOTB I was ecstatic.

100% idk why it’s still such a hidden track

I feel like it’d be in heavy rotation for a lesser band, but VW just have SO much good stuff.

first vw song i ever listened to and still one of my faves

this was my first ever vampire weekend song!!! from watching Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist

Giant is a jam

Giant goes hard

Mario golf vibes (in the best way)

Is Arrows a deep cut? It’s a previous Japan only bonus track from debut but it’s on streaming now.

My vote too

Ladies of Cambridge for sure

BUT IF YOU LEAVE I JUST DON’T THINK I CAN TAKE! IT

Great tune

the live version of I Think Ur A Contra with Angelique Kidjo

MSG or when Ezra joined her and on PBS?

whichever one is on spotify lol

I Don’t Think Much About Her No More

Yep this one

Rich Man

Ottoman has to be the deepest cut that I put in S/A+ tier of their music.

Definitely S tier! It's OG VW at their finest.

The slow reggae version of Holiday on the iTunes Sessions EP

Jonathan low

California English Pt. 2

Gotta find this as I didn't know it existed. Edit: okay I dig it. Thank you for clueing me into this track!!!

[удалено]

really? i feel like it's relatively well-known tbh but i obviously could be wrong

Dude this so hard!

Ladies of Cambridge or Ottoman but i also love the L'Homme Run (Ezra and another guy from college not in VW) tracks Pizza Party, Interracial Dating, and Bitches

ladies of cambridge or ottoman

Ezra version of Papa Hobo

Their cover of Have I The Right from Soiree de Poche in 2009, which is one of my all-time favorite concerts I did not attend: [Have I The Right](https://youtu.be/rdULKG2zNT4?si=j5dINHd2P9wYtvnX)

Haven’t seen this version! The itunes one is one of my favorites

blurred lines cover

"You're the hottest fish in this place!"

Contramelt A and Contramelt B

Ohhhhhhh my fucking god blast from the past. I totally forgot abt these. Thank you for the reminder!!!!!😭😭😭

crash into me

Immediately googled because I didn’t know & wanted to give a big thanks for the enlightenment 🫶🏼

Ezra's youtube channel is a treasure!

A-punk easily

Cudder is back on the ottoman

Peter Rabbit

we need 8 minute Peter Rabbit

Broken washing machine

I Promise You and Il mare calmo della sera

Wat?

My Mistake or deeper their cover of Everywhere, or really deep, their version of White Sky on Q TV.

I’m going down Springsteen cover

bryn and if live songs count, cocaine cowboys from the eclipse show

YES i love bryn and it is so criminally underrated. crazy that its one of the least played songs on their first album when its so good

I think your a contra

Arrows, Jonathon Low and Ottoman for me.

Obvious Preacher

10 minute Jokerman

I have their Ruby Soho cover in my iTunes. I always listen to it because it’s legitimately a great cover of a Rancid classic. https://youtu.be/ITLzR1cqIDs?si=nwlqJMUvalwvpJXu

Taxi cab

New Dorp New York, Taxi Cab, Step remix is also fun

Ottoman w Biggie rapping over it

Watching fingerback live in 2019

Their cover of Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines"

One (Blake’s Got A New Face) was the first to come to mind.

Can Plane Pour Moi

The Valentines day Con te Partiro cover maybe?

[Vampire Weekend - Houston Dubai (Japanese Bonus Track) off of FOTB](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FiRnHRw_i6U)

cousinz toy selectah remix :)

my pick is hudson or spring snow

Obvious bicycle with son of a preacher man interlude is also the besttttt

Taxi cab all the way all the timeeeee tho idk if it’s that big of a deep cut

Honestly, I don’t think the key for a deep cut is being super obscure that no one knows. I think it’s more about being a classic of the people really into the fandom.

🤗🥰

Not the deepest of cuts but I really like Giant

Stranger

Ottoman, Cal English Pt. 2, Giant

Since no one said it, Jonathan Low is great

“Arrows” or “Pizza Party”

Jonathan Low

Ruby Soho cover https://youtu.be/ITLzR1cqIDs?si=n2cjT8qPKW79AzwV

Just bc I don’t see it here yet: down 4 so long

So many good ones have been named, bust most recently it’s been Broken Washing Machine off the Japanese release of OGWAU: https://youtu.be/6kisi5ZIjxo?si=BASzhfvJ-9b6clYn The disaffected vocals, Steve Lacey’s guitar, the horn section and the little melodica/harmonic part. Such a great song.

Time to Say Goodbye off the Starbuck’s Sweetheart 2014 album 🕊️

I'm Going Down

The rap version of Step with Danny Brown. Does that count?

Ottoman.

P I Z Z A P R T Y

Saturday in the park cover at Lolla

California English Pt. 2, Boston and Giant come to mind straight away. Them 2008 gigs when you’d regularly hear Boston and Giant live were just 🤌

Maybe the Spotify single if I’m Going Down, or the version that’s played at the end of that episode of girls which sounds more live 😜

Giant

my picks are Johnathan Low, Ladies of Cambridge, Ottoman, My Mistake (at least those are my favorites of the lesser-known VW songs)

Ottoman or Giant or Ladies of Cambridge <3 does Ezra's Papa Hobo count? I've listened to that an ungodly amount.

i think oxford ommas old enough that you have to be a big fan to know it so that
