I just woke up from a nap….It’s 1:24 AM. Sigh. I fell asleep watching Coraline with my brother and sister, and next thing I know, it’s 1 AM! All those all nighters have really destroyed my sleep schedule!
I woke up to the glorious news that during my nap, Ezra and VW posted “White Sky” on their myspace. Of course, we know have an mp3 of the song! My friend Rogo from It’s A Rap updated me on this song during my nap and I woke up to the delightful sounds of “White Sky”!
I had a lot of hope in “White Sky”, after all I did get to witness it’s live debut at Bowery Ballroom on January 2008 (you can actually see my head at times on the left).
So it was safe to say that I had high expectations for this highly anticipated song! Did it live up to expectations? Oh yes! The song is a treasure for the ears! It is everything that I hoped for and more when I first heard this gem live. Vampire Weekend really hit it out of the ballpark with “White Sky”. This is a track that acts as a bridge for their debut and Contra. It sounds like them, but with new found influences at the very same time!
I am just happy to finally have a recorded version! I can probably vouch for plenty of Vampire Weekend fans here!
So sit back, and enjoy “White Sky”:
