Vampire Weekend "Sunflower" Music Video

Jonah Hill and Jerry Seinfeld Join Forces For Vampire Weekend's "Sunflower" Music Video

We have three big things that might excite any Vampire Weekend fans in the house. First, the band just dropped the music video for their latest single, "Sunflower," with The Internet guitarist Steve Lacy. Second, Jonah Hill directed said music video. Third, Jerry Seinfeld stars in it. Oh, and the video also features a copious amount of footage from iconic Upper West Side locations like Zabar's and Barney Greengrass. So, I guess that's four things to be excited about. My bad.

If you're hoping for any You've Got Mail flashbacks, then I suggest looking elsewhere, because the Mid90s director has the camera spinning constantly throughout the two-and-a-half-minute clip, creating a dizzying split-screen effect that only serves to highlight Seinfeld's trademark smirk. Check it out above before the band's new album, Father of the Bride, drops on May 3.
