Rostam - Don't Let It Get To You Lyrics

Would’ve been better as an instrumental or with lyrics as an unplugged studio version the music was way too fast for the ballad type lyrics a bad mash up of two songs that we’re good buy them selves but in no way do they fit together

im here for those crazy drums :)

Well I'm accustomed to a smooth ride...

Dream Corp, LLC

Animal Collective ?

I love Rostam music

Roast Damn Batman Jelly!

Pretty much.

Also the beat reminds me of the kitchen scene at the end of the Philadelphia @broadcity episode with Tony Danza

SOMEONE SENT ME THIS SONG DO THEY HTINK I MIGHT KILL MYSELF? BECAUSE I MIGHT IF THATS WHAT PEOPLE THINK OF ME

This young lion looks like Rostam :")

The beginning reminded me of The Obvious Child by Paul Simon! The entire drumming is so similar to that song! Great Rostam! :D

obviously that's obvious child's beat. love it

you know we want to hear more music from you, Rostam. but take your time, young lion, its all up to you.

flames.

whenever I'm down I listen to this song

pick you right up <3

rip the skating of josiah gatlyn

This music reminds me my Brazil, My Bahia, My Olodum

+Taís Valdes Lindolfo That's because it is Olodum.

+baby0babbling0bla LOL. Thanks. I didn't know

Rostam a Paul Simon fan?  The percussion sounds like The Obvious Child to me...like maybe it was directly lifted from the song and slowed down a notch and layered with some other effects.

+Cameron Morton obviously ovious. i don't see it as a secret!

+Cameron Morton Vampire Weekend as a whole are HUGE Paul Simon fans. As everyone should be :) .

I remember listening to this the first time I want to listen to some more of Rostams stuff

Always wonderful!

Love this song. Btw, anyone can tell me which font is that used in the lyrics?

So pretty and full of wisdom! You are a musical genius, Rostam(:

the background vocals.

This is so pretty and perfect

those drums couldn't sound more paul simon

paul simons' drums couldn't sound more.....(a variety of ethnic influences)

I heard this song way before Rhythm of the Saints and when I heard that song I immediately thought of this song.

@Corey O Hehe, I just made the same comment before scrolling down. Sounds like he ripped of The Obvious Child to me.

@Corey O It's called sampling for fucks sake

He actually sampled Obvious Child and cleared it with Paul and apparently he gave Rostam his blessings on the track. How sick is that?

please do more songs like this plzzzzzzzz

love it love it

these lyrics look really cool

paul simon meets edm and moves to dubui

i hear it

don't think that's an influence, i think that's a sample from the drum track off of "Obvious Child"... great song... great sample

I'm in love with this :)

I NEED MORE MUSIC BY YOU

great song !! I can feel some animal collective's colors when I ear that sound.

NO ONE TOLD ME ROSTAM MAKES HIS OWN SONGS!!!! This is an...interesting song?

It's like Summer and Winter and pain and beauty all in one blustery, cosy song. It's beautiful.

If I could draw a lion, it would look like that. Oh, and play every instrument and sing. Great music Sir!

it's quite hard to read the lyrics, but the song is amazing

Afarin rostam, you make us all proud :D

its similar, yeah. but it works so differently in this song

there is nothing anyone can say to excuse the fact that this is great music

rostam of vampire weekend ^_^
you can hear it in a lot of things, the flute, the bridge and his voice of course!
definately a more experimental track which was worked out to a few other songs on contra!

(I never realised how influential rostam was on vw!)

It's Batman! :)

@sam0branson Rostam Batmanglij :)

@MissingTime1
Totally agree with you. A little bit too much alike

The drumming beat sounds way too much like Paul Simons "Obvious Child" ... but I can tell the difference. Still .. bleh

truly amazing. so beautiful!!!

was this just some guy, or was this made by Rostam Batmanglij, of vampire weekend and das racist?

@planetahead marky mark is ice cold. vanilla ice not so hot.

@planetahead you are scum. you have no idea what originality is, or what it takes to make it. you never know how some thing will sound, until all ~~harmonious~ pieces come together.

I'm F&*%#%g obsessed with this. Would you guys call that a samba-ish beat?

@murreyhaze Now now. No hatin' while Rostam is playin.'

@dreamsincolor09 i am glad that you can afford it but mommy and daddy dont pay for my school... i am taking out loans to go to college... and i live in NEAR poverty. good for you though.

@murreyhaze Nah, bought it on iTunes to support fellow Rostam! :)

"Actually I want it more when it don't make sense." Truer words have never been spoken.

jockadoobee my favorite line

@Justin Simmons Even after about seven years I still love that line.

@dannyhardacre mediafire. hulkshare. soundcloud

@JOYFULghost no one knows what a band will sound like until they get together.. he appreciates all kinds of musical styles and he incorporates them beautifully. run and tell that.

STUNNiNG

Quite simply... amazing... I know it's early doors but it's the best thing I've heard in 2012 thus far!

FOR THE WINN

Thank you CLOSE TO HOME

@JonUkutube cmon bro that's not fair

@JonUkutube That's like saying The Beach Boys ripped off the Beatles, or The Supremes ripped off the Vandellas. It's part of that genre, that's why it's similar.

I woke up to this on BBC 6 Music yesterday morning. It made my day.

No wonder I love Vampire Weekend - they've so many great side projects, so many good songs to choose from between the four of them.

Half decent this. Most enjoy.

This is really beautiful, Rostam. Well done. I just bought the single on Irish iTunes. Looking forward to (or hoping for) your album.

A new Discovery Lp request please?

ohhh yeahhh

This is perfect.

My new favorite song.

Make and Album!!!! or put a extra bonus disc in with Vampire Weekend's New album [Deluxe Edition] I'd amazon pre-order that shit right now!

thanks batman. you've helped me with my christianity.

This is beyond amazing. Rostam, you are a genius.

@bboorrnnaa why wouldn't they if it's good for you?

@GirlCalledLatte why would anyone put honey in their ears?

Thank you Zane Lowe!

Love this along with "Wood." So whimsical and magical. :)

WOW. The words speak so much to me. Thank you for this Rostam. : )

pure perfection. honey to my ears. i love your music, Rostam. thank you!

Where can we download this? I need it in my iPod!! Such a fantastic track, Rostam.

I adore this song. I can't stop listening. Please release a solo album. x

Rostam, thank you
