I absolutely am obsessed with this live version of Walcott. It's superb and besides that; A) Ezra has the voice of an angel B) The violins slay C) This is the most quintessential VW song in my humblest of opinions.

~3 years late but this song is one of the most underrated VW songs.

You got it!

goddamn rostam is so talented

Must've played their classic debut to death during my college years. This live version of Walcott is just simply amazing :-)

It sounds slightly off and less weighty without the familiar piano part but, like M79, having those violins be so front and centre is so, so great to listen to.

The violin brings me to tears

Wow, hate discovering this so late. I admire all of you who came before me.

I don't know if it's the dudes voice, the acoustics in the room, or both, but goddamn, this sounds angelic

i’m high and literally cried at how beautiful this is, those violins...

Just discovered this tonight. So glad I did. You must see M79 Pitchfork Live as the encore. I promise you will not be disappointed.

2019 and still rocking this everyday!

1. Shawl sweater + Ezra = :) 2. Rostam's mesmerizing, beautiful arrangement + strings. The florid string harmonies reminded me of the beginning of the Flower Duet from Lakmé...

the emotions are real when the guy digs deep into that chello

This makes me want to play violin again

Just keep coming back to this... the change up with the strings in the middle at 2:17

Wow, they are great live! Thanks for sharing. I love this!

2017 and this is still GOLD

Beautiful

Love this rendition.

Beautiful arrangement!

Love

I do believe Rostams guitar here is the same acoustic they use when playing some of the new songs like Unbelievers...

how is it that i fall more in love with ezra the more i see him

2020 is gonna end soon. and i do know that its insane... this year is

wow. I didn't think the the album version of this song could could be improved upon.

the girl playing violin in faded jeans is so beautiful. 😍

Am I dreaming? Is that facial hair on Ezra??

motivation music

noww that i'm drunk the violins sound heavenly

is it just me, or was ezra's beard growing during this little jam sesh?

Kakashilazy Cyclops Nee Gee *rostam and he does the backup vocals on most of their songs . plus he's the keyboardist and there was no keyboard here so he just played backup guitar ??? i guess u would call it
