Words So Leisured by Franz Ferdinand


Song #3

Oh Franz Ferdinand, i remember the first time i heard the song 'Take Me Out' i thought i was in a new form of heaven, first thoughts were 'shit this is exactly what i've been waiting for! this is bloody amazing!' it was and it still remains a bloody genius song, but they have had many other amazing tunes from previous bands they were in, such as Karelia (which had Alex and Nick) and Kamerakino (Nick), Yummy Fur and a couple others. They make so much music it's insane, not all of it is released but that's the beauty of rare tracks and demos, they have said they want to make as much music as they can and then choose the best ones to put on the album, the more themerrier i am boys. Not only were they one of the first bands of our time (21st century im talking about here) to dress impecably, but their riffs, memorable voice and lyrics will always be hauntingly stalking your mind, once you've got into Franz there's no way of getting out and that's an amazing accomplishment on their part.
I chose 'Words So Leisured' which is a b-side off 'Take Me Out' [i happen to own this single oi!] because of it's beautiful melody.

You try for reason, but passion never lives, it dies with reason
