In the original version of "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa", Vampire Weekend drops Peter Gabriel’s name in the song. Hot Chip convinced Peter Gabriel to do a remix of the song, with a minor lyrical alteration: “And it feels so unnatural, Peter Gabriel too / And it feels so unnatural, to sing your own name.”
