This is where my taste in music ventures from what I usually write about. Vampire Weekend is an indie/punk band; everything about their music is glorious. It's upbeat, relaxing, and to sum it all up it's just fun! The song I chose this time is called "Horchata", off of their album "Contra". The lyrics are funny because for the most part they don't make sense, they're very sporadic; they mesh with my character and so I really enjoy listening to them. Vampire Weekend is a random band! Their sound is so original it's hard not to like it on some level. If your feeling daring, have a listen to some of my favourites off of "Contra": Diplomat's Son, I Think You're A Contra, Cousins, and Giving Up The Gun.
There's always that moment when you hear a new band or a new song and you wonder how you functioned before you heard them... this is one of those bands.
