    This song gives me "growing up" vibes. Like reminiscing of old times but with a look over affronting the future, sad and happy as life itself

  • @Nikolapoleon
    @Nikolapoleon 3 года назад +320

    Okay: I think I know vaguely what this song is about.
    Simply put, it's about the kind of challenges we undergo when we transition to adulthood, and how they change us as a person. The first half of the song is about the speaker's past. He used to live in New York, soak up culture like a sponge (Disco tapes from LA/San Francisco), experiment with abstract ideas (Communist reader), and was relatively wealthy (with Champaign and disco... I was a hoarder).
    The rest of the song is about his life currently, which is defined by change, and his new perception of his own future, which is now a lot less experimental and a lot more domestic (I'm ready for the house). The speaker sees himself as tougher (the gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out) for having grown up, but he had to give up freedom of expression and ideas in exchange for practicality to get to where he is now (wisdom's a gift but you trade it for youth).
    I think the many references to "stepping to my girl" are metaphors for life's challenges in general. When he says "you always step to me girl" he means "you always challenge me." And the subtext is that by challenging him constantly, life makes him a stronger person, but also forces him to conform. That's why "punks would laugh when they saw us together". They can see that he's been cowed. The speaker thinks the punks are not ready for the challenges of adulthood, so they "don't know how to dress for the weather." Conversely, when "ancestors say their girl was better... she was tougher than leather" he's referring to the way old people talk about the challenges in their life, and how it forced them to grow up, too.
    I could go on, but you get the idea. Why does this song make some people sad and some people nostalgic? Well, I would suggest that it's because the song is about growing up; an experience which is itself bittersweet. Why do listeners get "hipster" vibes, when listening to this song? Well, probably because it's sung from the perspective of a hipster from New York who's forced to grow up.

    • @xandrafuhrer
      @xandrafuhrer 2 года назад +11

      Lovely interpretation. I always thought "stepped to my girl" was just proposal, from the perspective of proposer and from the father of the bride (haha) which I still think makes sense, considering the thematic significance of proposal with the rest of the album...turns out it's most likely an extended metaphor for music itself, "girl" and "the music the singer listens to" being totally interchangeable throughout the song. "Ancestors told me that their girl was better"--boomers always complaining about older music being better, all the new stuff is shit; "and maybe she's gone and I can't resurrect her / the truth is she doesn't need me to protect her"--defensiveness and protectiveness of the music you love. And then the central "step to my girl" is this elitist anger over your obscure, deeply based tastes in music becoming mainstream--again a kind of protectiveness over it...which ofc works back with the father-of-the-bride reading. Anyway, it obviously means all of these things and none of them, that's what's so great about lyricism this spectacular.

This might be the most popular opinion (or idk if ezra has said it) but I love it when the people in the comment section talk about their own interpretation about a particular song, movies, music videos etc. Rather than just believing what others has to say about the meaning of some arts, why not make our brain works a bit finding the meaning behind some weird lyrics. Because that's what a good fan does.

    The first two Vampire Weekend albums came out while I was in college and my friends and I listened to them essentially everyday. I graduated in 2012, moved to New York, and then this album was released. I remember thinking how different it sounded from the first two albums and how it doesn't make me think of college, instead just makes me think of the city and living here. This song particularly was a beacon of this huge move/change/step in my life. This video took me by complete surprise.. and makes such beautiful, perfect sense that it's like someone knows my brain.

Have to be out of my place in July, don’t have money to get a new spot, I had to sell my moms house to pay her hospital bills because she turned 65 in the hospital was too sick to sign up for Medicare and was dropped from her insurance. Im so lonely I don’t know what to do. My dog is is getting really old. On the plus side, I’m sober and have been for over a decade. I used to drink a lot.

    I heard this song last year around November before I went to this highschool football game to see this girl I've had a crush on since 6th grade (I'm in 8th now) but I never had the balls to talk to her but my friend told me that she thought I was cute So I thought I had a chance with her. While I was with her that night, this song played in my head and helped me say the sweetest things to her and she would make the most adorable smile ever. We got each other's number and texted for a while and I got her into Vampire Weekend which was awesome. But sadly, her and I stopped talking for no reason. Last thing I remember texting her was "Happy Thanksgiving" and that was it. Whenever I hear this song I automatically think of her and the cold weather of that night, people cheering for the football, drinking hot coffee while wearing pea coats with scarfs and hearing my friends cheering me on while I talked to her. Good memories Vampire Weekend brings but this song brings the most :')

    I've been listening to this song since I was 17. I remember listening to the beginning part when he starts naming random cities in the bay area and them being meaningless to me. I'm now 26, I just moved out of the bay area after living in Alameda for 3 years, with so many pleasant memories in San Francisco, Oakland, and Berkeley. I recently heard this song again as I was moving and it feels like this song was placed in my life by whatever higher power to foreshadow what the future had in store. I was struggling with depression back then and I'm so glad I got to this point in my life. I have everything I could ever want, truly blessed.

" I'm stronger now I'm ready for the house " before when ezra's music was being criticized as terrible music he wasnt ready for that type of review you know. But now he's ready and he knows his music won't be liked by many peope but that doesn't bother him anymore. " when I see you in the world I see you step to my girl " here he's talking about how he sees fans of his music or those critics singing and dancing to his songs. I don't know what you guys think but you should definitely google it :)

  • @ivana9133
    @ivana9133 5 лет назад +145

    [Intro]
    Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl
    [Verse 1]
    Back, back, way back I used to front like Angkor Wat
    Mechanicsburg, Anchorage and Dar es Salaam
    While home in New York was champagne and disco
    Tapes from L.A. slash San Francisco
    But actually Oakland and not Alameda
    Your girl was in Berkeley with her Communist reader
    Mine was entombed within boombox and Walkman
    I was a hoarder, but girl, that was back then
    [Chorus]
    The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
    What you on about?
    I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
    Such a modest mouse
    I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone
    [Refrain]
    Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl
    [Verse 2]
    Ancestors told me that their girl was better
    She's richer than Croesus, she's tougher than leather
    I just ignore all the tales of her past life
    Stale conversation deserves but a bread knife
    And punks who would laugh when they saw us together
    Well, they didn't know how to dress for the weather
    I can still see them there, huddled on Astor
    Snow falling slow to the sound of the master
    [Chorus]
    The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
    What you on about?
    I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
    Such a modest mouse
    I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone
    [Bridge]
    Wisdom's a gift, but you'd trade it for youth
    Age is an honor, it's still not the truth
    We saw the stars when they hid from the world
    You cursed the sun when it stepped to your girl
    Maybe she's gone and I can't resurrect her
    The truth is she doesn't need me to protect her
    We know the true death, the true way of all flesh
    Everyone's dying, but girl, you're not old yet
    [Chorus]
    The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
    What you on about?
    I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
    Such a modest mouse
    I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone
    The gloves are off, the wisdom teeth are out
    What you on about?
    I feel it in my bones, I feel it in my bones
    I'm stronger now, I'm ready for the house
    Such a modest mouse
    I can't do it alone, I can't do it alone
    [Outro]
    Every time I see you in the world, you always step to my girl

    Still my favorite Vampire Weekend song. Always makes me feel so good. A little bit sad, but in a good way

    This song was playing 2 years ago when my dad called to tell me that my grandfather had died. The sweet, somber harpsichord always takes me back to that conversation.
