Ya Hey. " Ya Hey " is a song by American indie pop band Vampire Weekend, taken from their third studio album Modern Vampires of the City. It was released as the second single from the album on May 3, 2013 through XL Recordings. An official music video of the single, featuring the lyrics, was uploaded on May 3, 2013.
The song's lyric video, directed by by Greg Brunkalla is a champagne celebration, which culminates in the band getting soaked. The song title is a play on words on God's Hebrew name YAHOWAH (or YAHWEH), and it has a distinctively religious tone. Ezra Koenig, who wrote the lyrics, was brought up in a Jewish family and had a Bar Mitzvah.
