Vampire Weekend - Walcott

Brooklyn-based band Vampire Weekend's self-titled 2008 debut album produced several singles, including the fabulous "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa", but why "Walcott" was not among the single releases is beyond me. It's an absolute stunner of a pop song, a cross between Ben Folds Five and Undertones, with the former's sense of true musical ability and the latter's punk attitude and pop sensibility. Amazing!
