Over the weekend Vampire Weekend covered Bruce Springsteen’s “I’m Going Down” at one of their live shows. I wished for a studio version of because I enjoyed it so much. Well I sorta got my wish. The band recently performed a live studio cover of the song for 107.1 The End. The result is a really great, clear, recording of the cover. The band does it plenty of justice. Ezra’s vocal performance was quite impressive.
