Out two weeks from yesterday from Billboard.biz. Best chance for a hit from the album in my opinion.

Good choice. Most radio-friendly thing that hasn't been released.

Funny, my station just started playing "Giving Up The Gun". Better late than never.

i really thought Giving Up The Gun was going to be huge from the first time I heard it. This clearly is the best choice for a 3rd single but i bet a lot less stations pick it up than the last 2 songs

I just want to say that I finally get this band. Kind of weird cause I didn't really care for them when I first heard them, but lately I've been going back over bands and now I'm enjoying them so easily. It's very odd. So I thought you guys would like to know.

Once the hype of their first album had died down, I listened to it and enjoyed it rather well.
Streamed the singles they've had off Contra quite a bit, though, and I'm just not really feeling them.

Just as I thought, "Giving Up the Gun" was fluke. This is crap.

Top 50 on Alternative: 58 44 VAMPIRE WEEKEND Holiday 164 88 76 0.928 This is probably charting because of the name and theme of the song. But congrats to Vampire Weekend for a third charting single |

This song is currently being used on the radio in a car ad.

This song is currently being used on the radio in a car ad. Yeah, I was gonna say "This must be that annoying Christmas ad I keep seeing on TV every 10 minutes". Anyway, I pretty much agree with radical. |

It's rather strange that this song is being utilized in a Christmas ad when it's definitely not as festive as the title might suggest.
