Vampire Weekend’s song “Hope” is perhaps titled with a hint of irony, as it urges the listener to make peace with the fact that there exist negative forces within our world which cannot be entirely vanquished, rather than endlessly toil via railing against them.
“Hope” is an indie rock song.
The song is co-produced by singer/songwriter Ezra Koenig and producer Ariel Rechtshaid. “Hope" is on the third consecutive Vampire Weekend album to include production from Rechtshaid.
