Vampire Weekend - Harmony Hall (Official Audio) 

“I don’t wanna live like this, but I don’t wanna die” something about that line hits home

I love that guitar riff, could listen to it for two hours on repeat.

Their songs never fail to make it feel like summer, even when it’s the middle of winter

HERE COMES A FEELING YOU THOUGHT YOU'D FORGOTTEN

*THE SIX YEAR WAIT IS OVER, BOYS*

"I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die" is relatable to what is going on with the World right now.

Now we know why the album took so long, Ezra had to catch all these bugs first.

I wonder if sony music was involved

i'm living for that reference to finger back

The piano in this song actually makes me so happy.

I love how they have bits from their previous songs. They did it before and they're doing it again. 2019 looks better already.

Absolutely nobody: vampire weekend: 🐸🐜🐞🕷🐛🐝🦋

Sony: how's writing new lyrics going? Ezra: hold up, what's wrong with old ones?

This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. That song gives me goosebumps, makes me smile and emotional at the same time. I feel like Harmony Hall is gonna be a big part of my life. Thanks Vampire Weekend for everything.

the new era is here. and it has a beautiful aesthetic.

You know when a song makes you feel like everything is going to be alright? This is one of them. What an absolutely beautiful comeback.

Who knew the first VW song in 6 years would also announce the return of Flik to the big screen in Bug’s Life 2? Best day ever.

I discovered these guys during one of the biggest mental health breakdowns of my life. I'm so happy for their music because it kept me comfort in a time where I needed it.

LOOK at the end of the description. ROSTAM produced!!!!!

I've just realised after several weeks that the line is "the stone walls of HARMONY HALL bear witness" rather than "the stone walls vomited on their witness"

Vampire Weekend is finally back after 84 years.

"I don't want to live like this, but I don't want to die." - perhaps the most profound lyric I've heard in a long time.

“I don’t wanna live like this.” me during all the years without vampire weekend. so glad you’re back boys !

I'm 68 this Summer, and this song rings so true, it elates me, and makes me cry, all at the same time.

The production on these tracks are immaculate, and they feel like a progression of their first record with bits of the other 2 sprinkled in. I'm impressed!

So, heard this song for the first time ever today, played it back God knows how many times, and had a good cry for 20 or so minutes. Ended up liking it for how much I can identify with the song's message. Music and songs like this can be very powerful when the right emotion is touched.

I CAN'T BELIEVE MY FAVOURITE LYRIC MADE A COMEBACK I'M SO HAPPY

"Harmony Hall" debuted at #2 on the New Alternative 40 Chart this week!

This is entrancing and beautiful. 2019 is already a blessed year.

This song is AMAZING and keeps getting better each time I hear it. And a shout-out to all the bugs who acted in the video - y'all are fire!

I missed this voice so much ❤️

Man, Sympathy for the Devil is still a great song.

this has such a 90's vibe, especially the chorus. i dig it

The piano interlude with the little inchworm is my favorite part.🐛

I love the lyrical call back to "Finger Back."

No one cares but I was born in 2001 and my parents have been fans of Vampire Weekend since they started music so I grew up with memories of hearing “A-punk” and “Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa” blasting through the house as my dad did yard work outside and thinking back to when I was younger days that started like that have always been the best. Lol I remember our TV provider had a music videos on demand feature and we would have our parents replay the A-punk video all the time. My teen years have been filled with a weird depression since I was 14 so hearing new music from Vampire Weekend gives me hope for a good year to come. *EDIT: i got to see them in concert in august:) it was incredible. funny story actually, my mom drove my sister and i past the venue earlier in the day only for us to see a guy standing talking on the phone. sister goes “hey that looks like ezra (lead singer) we get closer and BAM! it is him! we drove past all giddy, i videotaped it but got too nervous because i was 4 feet from a guy who’s voice made my childhood and he was giving me the “i know you’re filming me” face. ended up briefly catching his leg in the video for .01 seconds. if he hadn’t been on the phone i would’ve stopped with my mom and sister and told him what his music meant to me, and of course gotten a picture lol. however i thought it would be rude to interrupt a phone call. i was upset about it for a good portion of the day, hell i was THAT close to meeting him, but now i look back and smile. the concert was amazing. i promised myself i’d see them live and years later i did!*

Thumbnail definitely helps to confirm the "Vampire Weekend- Summer, Contra- Fall, MVOTC- Winter, FOTB- Spring" theory

The production has such a late 90s- early 2000s vibe, I love it

FATHER OF THE BRIDE LETS GOOOOO

This song feels like summer. The instrumental melody is completely entrancing - gives me such folksy yet '80s pop George Michael vibes. New favorite VW song of the moment.

lowkey can't wait for new merch bc this aesthetic is 👌

Really!? 316 people thumbs downed this? I think that this is one of their most refined and great songs! Hands-down! I can't stop listening to this! It's like every music era in one song! The lyrics are well-written and relatable. "I don't want to live like this, but I don't want to die." That resonates with me in so many ways! Great job guys! You're one of my all-time favorite bands!

there's one (1) band in this entire whole world

I couldn't be still in my life, I couldn't be present in my life. Until this thing happend to me, that made me present in every moment in my life - it was shaking me awake.

When getting married, our first dance was to Step. It's been a long wait... but well worth it... and all the sweeter for it ❤

Oh my god, this fills me with joy. It feels like coming home. The callback to Finger Back made me tear up. And I'm getting serious Peter Gabriel "Shaking the Tree" vibes. My heart is so happy listening to this.

Loving this track, welcome back gentlemen! Vampire Weekend 2019 ♥️

This goes real smooth, Vampire Weekend's music always seems to have an effortless yet perfect explorative sound. This is a new song yet instantly classic and reminiscent. Sound is a peculiar thing.

PAUL SIMON VIBES I LOVE IT

Great song on first listen, proper, gentle, bright, this is why I’ve missed them. Wow actually one of the best songs they’ve released, immediately accessible and has well written lyrics

Wowie. The production is very pleasing to the ear, all those sounds dipping in and out of each other. Very easy to listen to, very nice. Thanks.

honestly this Sony Audio video is a million times better than the official video that just got released. I love this video and it seems to go perfectly wit the song (to me) which is, to me awesome. I'd have saved the cash and stuck with this version. Y'now, if I were in the band and everything...

that's it, 2019 is already officially better than 2018

307 people have lost their minds. This song is absolutely beautiful. And that guitar riff!!!

The title of the album is officially "Father of the Bride."

Je ne veux pas vivre comme ceci, mais je ne veut pas mourir.... Universal beauty!

Love the piano solo!

I love that their sound is starting to fill out and the arrangements are more lush. The minimalism/stripped down northeast college sound is clever, but they have so much more in their songs and it's nice to hear it evolve. Great tune.

[Verse 1] We took a vow in summertime Now we find ourselves in late December I believe that New Year's Eve Will be the perfect time For their great surrender But they don't remember [Pre-Chorus] Anger wants a voice Voices wanna sing Singers harmonize Till they can't hear anything Thought that I was free From all that questioning But every time a problem ends Another one begins [Chorus] And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die [Verse 2] Within the halls of power lies A nervous heart that beats Like a Young Pretender's Beneath these velvet gloves I hide The shameful crooked hands Of a money lender 'Cause I still remember [Pre-Chorus] Anger wants a voice Voices wanna sing Singers harmonize Till they can't hear anything Thought that I was free From all that questioning But every time a problem ends Another one begins [Chorus] And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die [Instrumental] [Chorus] And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die [Outro] I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die And the stone walls of Harmony Hall bear witness Anybody with a worried mind can never forgive the sight Of wicked snakes inside a place you thought was dignified I don't wanna live like this, but I don't wanna die

This is one of the best songs I ever heard the vocals are stunning and that guitar is so cool. This band is hit or miss for me but every single second of this song is 10/10

What a banger

This video was so optimistic it was a breath of fresh air

I like the little homage to Baroque music (at 3:03) and to the Grateful Dead (at 3:42) in the instrumentals.

Superb musicianship especially the piano playing.

Absolutely perfect in every aspect - literally, musically and arrangement-wise. Gives me shivers every time listening!

I spent six hours today listening to this song on repeat because the wait is finally over, this song is so beautifully amazing and definitely worth the wait

After hearing this I might just be Diane Young

Its been a while since I knew about Vampire Weekend, but after hearing this song in Ted Lasso it became one of my favorites

My heart be like: "Here comes a feeling you thought you'd forgotten"

Nature is so beautiful

anyone else getting happy monday’s vibes from that piano ?

Thank you Sirius/XM Spectrum channel for introducing me to this wonderful song and band! Love being introduced to new good music.

We made it!!!!! Heard it a few times through google music already. Ezra pulled through! This sounds amazing!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!

Waking up to two new vampire weekend songs has got to be the best feeling that I’ve had in a long time

Father of the Bride more like Father of the BUGSSSS TOO MANY BUGS

its like serotonin is being injected into my veins my god this is so peaceful and beautiful and just SO LOVELY UGH GOD I LOVE THIS

six year just past away, omg. i love u guys Please don't missing again

this might just be the best song ever written

this is so beautiful I’m crying

One of the best songs ever written

I'm disapointed the album title is not 'Frank Ocean Touches Boobs' like I had theorized

Vampire Weekend never disappoints.

I’ve never been this early for anything before

I saw them twice last yr. This was definitely the vibe they had during their shows.

Love the familiar lyrics

Some songs keep our hearts beating, all songs mean something different to everybody
