PMA's Best Covers of 2008: Vampire Weekend - Everywhere
One of 2008's best reviewed albums, Vampire Weekend's full-length debut made countless top 10 year-end lists, including Rolling Stone.
Vampire Weekend performed its version of Everywhere in studio at Triple J. Several on-line publications have declared it one of the best covers of 2008. Vampire Weekend - Everywhere (Fleetwood Mac Cover).mp3 http://www.mediafire.com/?ienmg5mywmm Here they are performing it live: |
AHHH EZRA KOENIG!!!
TALKING ABOUT FLEETWOOD MAC!! I love him <3 And Vampire Weekend is the best band of 2008. APunk and Ladies of Cambridge are worth buying. But I think they should cover a LBTusk song on thier next CD. Just saying :D |
The fact that critic's darlings such as Vampire Weekend - whose debut CD released in Jan. 2008 was certified Gold - speaks to FM's continued relevance.

From an interview with Vampire Weekend:
http://www.944.com/articles/big-soun...f-a-hot-debut/ The musicians have also proven themselves quite an able cover band, taking on the likes of Radiohead, Tom Petty and an inspired take on Fleetwood Mac’s “Everywhere,” a song Batmanglij and Keonig bonded over one hazy night back at Columbia. “Ezra and I got really high, and I played the Fleetwood Mac version for him. He was blown away,” Batmanglij chuckles. “Even though there’s a lot of heavy production going on, at the heart of it is a great song. That’s where it all connected.” |

Well I consider The Dance version to be definitive. And if ONLY VW had officially released Everywhere. I'm seriously considering not buying their new album unless they include it as a bonus track.
