Peter Gabriel and Hot Chip - Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa (Vampire Weekend cover)

In 2008, Vampire Weekend recorded a song titled Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa whose lyrics mention Peter Gabriel by name:
"But this feels so unnatural
Peter Gabriel too
But this feels so unnatural
Peter Gabriel"
A month later, Hot Chip announced they were going to make a cover of this song in collaboration with... Peter Gabriel himself.
In an interview, Peter said to the BBC: "I actually do like that song a lot (...) I haven't quite worked out whether I should be [singing my own name] or substituting it with a name that might be appropriate to me - I think playing with yourself makes you go blind after a while."
They recorded the song and Peter changed that bit in the lyrics with the line “It feels so unnatural to sing your own name”.
Ten years later, at the End Of The Road festival, Vampire Weekend performed this song and right after the pianist lead the band into a cover of “Solsbury Hill", as you can see here:
