yeah, i’m glad he used the word official about seventy two times in the post. i stick by the story i made up, he, instead, sticks by stories with a relative probable theory… lame.

Yeah, I just thought it was really called Ladies of Cambridge because thats what it says on itunes. It doesn’t really matter to me what you name it though. No biggie.

here’s my take on what happened. i believe that they played the song live before they gave it a name and/or recorded it for the mansard roof single. since the song talks a lot about boston my conjecture is that fans gave the track the title boston as it wasn’t named {or the name was never said} during live shows. that’s just my story, and i’m sticking to it. feel free to change the name and/or the id3 tags after downloading.

Just checked the Vampire Weekend site and it calls the particular track “Ladies of Cambridge”. I don’t know how official the official band site is, but my guess is it’s right.

you see mr. Droll, i know you’re giving me a hard time, but many a loyal readers might not be privy to your particular brand of sarcasm, etc., so i need to publicly defend my positions.

I’m just giving you a hard time… I like this band as well. You don’t happen to have their album? I gotta come home sometime soon.

ok, as there is no definite answer the the actual name of this song i will just state that it appears to have floated back and forth between two different names. those names being a) Boston and b) Ladies of Cambridge. both live performances on youtube as well as references on last.fm have the song listed with both titles. as for me, i’m calling it Boston as it makes much more sense.

i heard about them from another blogger. and i actually really like their music. as i said in the post i’m really excited to see them play at Langerado.

i’m still looking into the correct name for this mystery song i posted. some have it labelled Boston, some have it labelled Ladies of Cambridge, some don’t have it labelled at all.

Did you just post this cause it was the most searched thing on hype right now? or do you actually like this band?
