Vampire Weekend already performed "Unbelievers" on Jimmy Kimmel Live! -- twice -- and they gave it a spin on SNL last spring. So it would have been fun to hear them air out a different Modern Vampires Of The City gem upon their visit to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night. ("Everlasting Arms," perhaps?) But "Unbelievers" is getting a push as a radio single, and there's really no reasonable objection to hearing any music from our third-favorite album of 2013, so let's all sing it again below.

Before the show Ezra took over Late Night's Instagram and did a fine job.

Modern Vampires Of The City is out now on XL, and it remains fascinating and inspiring.
