Welcome to my Franz Ferdinand Thread. I have not seen any thread for them so I created this. No idea if there is an Official but until then this is the one. I will keep it that way until I am shown different. Thanks.

Take Me Out


So if you're lonely
You know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken, shattered, I lie
I'm just a crosshair
I'm just a shot, then we can die

I know I won't be leaving here with you

I say don't you know
You say you don't go
I say... take me out!

I say you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say... take me out!

If I move this could die
If eyes move this could die
I want you...to take me out!

I say you don't know
You say you don't go
I say... take me out!

I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here (with you)
I know I won't be leaving here with you

I say don't you know?
You say you don't know
I say take me out

If I wane, this can die
If I wane, this can die
I want you to take me out

If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this could die
Come on, take me out

I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here
I know I won't be leaving here with you


Michael

This is where I'll be
So heavenly
So come and Dance with me Michael

So Sexy, I'm sexy
so come and dance with me Michael

I'm all that you see, you want to see
came and dance with me Michael

So close now your so close now
come and dance with me
come and dance with me
So come and dance with me

Michael you're the boy with all the leather hips
Stucky hair, sticky hips stubble on my sticky lips
Michael your the only one I ever want only one I ever want only one I ever want
Beautiful boys on a beautiful dance floor
Michael your dancing like a beautiful dance-whore
Michael waiting on a Silver platter now
and nothing matters now

This is what I am I am a man so come and dance with me Michael

So strong now it's strong now
so come and dance with me Michael

I'm all that you'll be you'll ever see
So come and dance with me Michael

So close now You're close now
Come and dance with me come and dance with me So come and dance with me!

Michael you're the boy with the leather hips sticky hair sticky lips stubble on my sticky hips
Beautiful boys on a beautiful dance floor Michael you're dancing like a beautiful dance whore
Michael waiting on a silver platter now
and nothing matters now!
nothing matters now nothing matters now and nothing matters now

Michael you're the boy with the leather hips sticky hair sticky lips stubble on my sticky lips Beautiful boys on a beautiful dance floor
Michael you're dancing like a beautiful dance whore
Michael waiting on a silver platter now...
and nothing matters now!
Franz Ferdinand went to the European MTV Awards and came back empty handed. Poor guys better luck next time! It is said that they really put on a good show during their performance though!

Someone asked me to post the article about the FF fight so here you go! Enjoy!
Knock Me Out


FRANZ FERDINAND frontman Alex Kapranos brawled with the band's drummer after a sell-out gig in Paris.

Shocked fans watched the punch-up with Paul Thompson after the pair had a furious row.

Onlookers described it as 'handbags at 50 paces' because neither of the skinny stars landed a serious blow during the fight in the Zenith club.

An insider travelling with the band, who scored their biggest hit with Take Me Out, said: 'The pair of them were really ratty. The row had nothing to do with music.

'They were getting little digs in and it just escalated.

'Alex exploded into a rage and before long the pair of them were trying to hit each other.

'But nobody was seriously hurt. I mean have you seen them? Alex is no Mike Tyson.' The Glasgow band have had a gruelling schedule since their Mercury Music Prize win for debut album Franz Ferdinand.

The boys stand to make millions from their sixth world tour but the intense travelling and performing has taken its toll since they left London at the end of October.

Last week they had been playing at venues in Berlin before flying out to Japan, America and Mexico.

They will finish their tour at the SECC in Glasgow on December 18 and 19.

Promoters say the group have sold an estimated 72,000 tickets in Europe and Japan alone.

Paul, the only member of the band who is originally from Glasgow, got married at the beginning of October.

Friends says he misses his new wife, Esther, and has spent all his money on calling her from their tour.

Band spokesman Steve Phillips said: 'A few fists were thrown after the show in Paris, but it was nothing major.

'Everything is sorted now, it was just one of those things that happens when you are tired and knackered.

'It's not easy for them living in each other's pockets and being together 24/7.'

Ironically the band were formed after a fight between Alex and guitarist Nick McCarthy. When the pair made up they decided to form Franz Ferdinand.

Alex, 34, has said of the row with Nick: 'It's almost embarrassing to remember.

'It was a scrum like schoolkids get into.

'I put the bottle of vodka down and when I looked around, there was this funny-looking guy at the other side of the room with it.

'We started having a fight but almost instantly became friends.

'We started talking about what we liked and within minutes we'd agreed to meet up and play music together.'

In a recent interview, Paul said that Nick was the only member of the band to remember his birthday in September.

Alex claimed to have forgotten and Bob Hardy said he was saving his present for later. The insider added: 'The boys have been trying to keep the fans happy as well as carrying on living the rock and roll lifestyle.

'The fight between Alex and Paul started with the two of them having words. It turned into a tiff and before we knew it they were throwing punches. Thankfully no one was hurt.

'It was over something very minor but I suppose because they are stuck together all the time it just took on a lot more significance.'

I do believe Franz Ferdinand is British which would explain them not being that popular in America. Kind of like Modest Mouse which is also teh awesomeness
