@@samhelsel443 You would have to play this bass riff to understand. It just grooves like no other rock song of its era but has so much energy and it was one of the first songs I learned to play so it has a special place for me.
Reminds me of when the whole “I can ride my bike with no handlebars” popped into my head and I remembered being downstairs in the family room with my cousin and brother laughing and listening to it play on the absolutely massive family computer.

My own father, in his 50s, thought this song had only come out in 2019 back when he first heard it. It was hilarious. Like when a kid tells you they discovered this awesome new band, but the band turns out to be Guns n' Roses
I was going to comment like the same thing!! It's so well done and perfect for the song! It's also impressive from a theory perspective, especially playing it live.
People out here saying that the opening to the song is better than the rest of song as a whole. In my opinion, the song wouldn't be half as memorable if it was just the opening. The song's main riff is just so infectious...
This song literally just flooded my memories from 2000s, at first I thought this was the same song as the Quagmkre Toilet meme and that was the beginning of this song then I remembered that was a separate song from my 2000's kid memories. But yeah the mid Is what made me remember and find this song
I literally sought this song out knowing ONLY that main riff. I have heard the opening so many times and never made the connection before the channel was changed, so when I finally heard the whole thing by accident one day, it was quite the revelation... and the facepalm. Totally worth it!

Essa musica me faz lembrar do meu falecido irmão 😢. Todas as vezes que tocava a música em uma radio, aumentava até o volume máximo e cantávamos! Um dia estaremos juntos. Saudades eterna, Willian 1988 -2009
The riff to this song has been etched into my brain for years without me knowing the song or artist. Glad I finally found it so I can slap this into my playlists
yeeeess, I used to love it from Guitar Hero, but I was 7 or so. Last year i found them out again, and God, I'm in love with practically every song of them!
yooo.. haha same. just sounded familiar at first, but the chorus,, i remembered all the words haha. reminds me of gta iv, flobots, viva la vida, the killers, green day haha. my city's station KROQ damn
@@DollySantana oh those MTV days... What the hell happened to this world!!! Have you checked the top charts of these days? Now I really don't get people's taste of music
When I'm going through the comment sections of songs on TH-cam, I see people talking about the music obviously, but nobody ever talks about the music video it seems. The music video can really add to the song and I think this is a great example. I think this is one of the best music videos; just the aesthetic and visuals are so creative and cool.
@@javonmccovery3081 well I’d say queen was the first to add more instruments to their songs then what you see in normal rock but that doesn’t push them out of the rock category.
Carson Montgomery Please explain me how the name of the band and the song are intentionally related...And Renaissance lasted until the end of the 18th century,,
Bro I forgot ALLLL about this song until I heard the main riff then a ancient memory was unlocked and had me smiling hard ash 💯💯💯forgotten nostalgia is simply amazing 🤙🏾😮💨
This is that type of music that just puts you in a good mood, genuinely makes you feel good. I haven’t heard this song since I was a kid and an Instagram reel brough it back to me and boy am I happy
A Facebook page of blunts n bongs brought me back here. It said name one song people forgotten and this was one that someone named and boy is it forgotten. Great song!
I miss all of those rock bands that popped up in the early 2000's, bands like The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, Jet, Arctic Monkeys. I don't know how many of them still make music like this
The Arctic Monkeys sound might've changed but their best era was definitely the Humbug era. Their sound was just so unique and mysterious. Definitely my favorite album from them.
This song is so simple and I'm not even into rock but I remember hearing this on MTV as a premiere and I thought to myself this is a classic. One of my favorites songs.
17 years ago, on the first day of Architecture school, the professor welcomed us with this song on full blast in the lecture theatre and I immediately knew I was in good company. I dropped out of Arch school and went to work in order to feed my young family; but the burning desire to design and to create is like a shimmering coal fire that keeps getting hotter as time goes on. Pink Floyd's High Hopes, New Order's Elegia, Poets of the Fall's Carnival of Rust, and this song ... kept me going through my darkest days. They fed the soul, and kept the fire burning. If you're going through depression please remember it's temporary; take that first step; there's always a fire in you.
the transition in this is like when everyone thinks the main character is dead and then he just emerges from a fiery building and beats the crap out of everyone
the way this incarnation of Franz Ferdinand burst into the scene as a complete artistic package, audio-visual, was incredible. especially the first couple records, and the way they presented themselves in that era had so much intention and drive. I'm mentioning this because most bands these days, roughly 20 years later, don't even come close. this revival moment had a joyful ire about critiquing the looming digital sensory overload age (this is pre iphone), via constant allusions to analog visual aesthetics yet in a way that poked fun back on itself which is perhaps what made them loveable rather than just pretentious. early Franz Ferdinand was a rare mystical artistic accident that celebrated humor and playfulness somehow mixed with a gothic sensibility and darkness, delivered with a heart warming sincerity. they were facetious enough to call the venue they played at the Chateau, while wearing eyeliner and singing about being served on a platter.. miss this time now looking back, but in a way I'm happy that they evolved and kept their journey going, songs like this though remain in the time capsule that is youtube as relics of a weirdly hopeful but unhinged time that was the post 9-11 aughts..

The guitar is just fucking perfect in this song. I want this played at my assassi- I mean funeral.
i love this
daft punk synths would be awesome with the guitar if they remade it xD
+John Rambo lol yeah
History jokes. ;P I see what you did there.
Nice guitar,,
[Intro]
So if you're lonely, you know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here, you leave me broken, shattered I lie
I'm just a cross-hair, I'm just a shot, then we can die
Oh, oh, oh
I know I won't be leaving here with you
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 1]
I say, don't you know?
You say you don't know
I say: take me out
I say you don't show
Don't move, time is slow
I say: take me out
[Verse 2]
Well, I say you don't know
You say you don't know
I say: take me out
If I move, this could die
If eyes move, this could die
I want you to take me out
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
I say, don't you know?
You say you don't know
I say: take me out
If I wane, this could die
If I wait, this could die
I want you to take me out
If I move, this could die
Eyes move, this can die
Come on, take me out
[Chorus]
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
Liking anc commenting to boost. Was looking for this to make sure I remember the words right and they dont have CC turned on

It's still on my list of favorite songs and I still listen to it like the first day
@goukison81 - thank you!
if Archduke Franz Ferdinand could pull these sick beats, Austria-Hungary would still be around kicking ass
And owning a single street in China
Oh he did trust me. So much a Serbian though it was also a Banger.
For sure
Can't believe arch duke Ferdinand came out with this.... More kids need to respect the music from the past....😢❤
Legend has it he ws taken out fr this

Essa musica me faz lembrar do meu falecido irmão 😢. Todas as vezes que tocava a música em uma radio, aumentava até o volume máximo e cantávamos! Um dia estaremos juntos. Saudades eterna, Willian 1988 -2009
The riff to this song has been etched into my brain for years without me knowing the song or artist. Glad I finally found it so I can slap this into my playlists
influencia argentina de SODA STEREO ................. escuchar musica "NO EXISTES"
yeeeess, I used to love it from Guitar Hero, but I was 7 or so. Last year i found them out again, and God, I'm in love with practically every song of them!
It's wholesale lifted from The Gone Jackals - Not Buried Deep Enough from 1995. Now you know.
A mí me pasó lo mismo, 3 años la estuve buscando :"(

Happy for you !!😘😅 Superb Music !!

Yes me too. After how many years. Since I just heard it on radio. We're lucky youtube can serve us a time machine.
Really? 😧 Welcome to Franz Ferdinand, they have many great songs!! 🤘🏼
I remember me and my fellow soldiers be listening to this back in the trenches!
Meravigliosi ❤❤❤
I haven't heard this song since elementary school. Honestly I forgot it existed. This was such a sudden blast of memories and nostalgia
Right!! This just popped in my head outta nowhere lol I like it even more 🤣 I swear, life was so simple.
yooo.. haha same. just sounded familiar at first, but the chorus,, i remembered all the words haha. reminds me of gta iv, flobots, viva la vida, the killers, green day haha. my city's station KROQ damn
Anybody else feel old yet? I know I do
@@dudesqr 🖐️😣
Same sad that singer died
I've just listened to this song for the first time, 19 years after it was released, and it's amazing! I can't stop listening to it!
WOW !!!
You definitely missed out! 😅❤
@@lewischristie2285 I agree, definitely missed out for a while! But I'm glad to experience it finally 🤘
This my first time hearing this since I was 15 waking up to this and modest maus playing on MTV HITS
@@DollySantana oh those MTV days... What the hell happened to this world!!!
Have you checked the top charts of these days? Now I really don't get people's taste of music
I was 19 when it came out. It was part of the post punk revival thing. Some great bands around that time.
Classic Went to play Guitar hero 1 on ps2 and sure as hell it had this song on there
yyeeeessssss
Was it fun?
+smudgy budgy what do you think?
Heck yeah
I definitely am still playing GH 1&2 on my PS2, that's my childhood right thur, big part of the reason I play guitar now
110 years later and still rocking so damned hard
When I'm going through the comment sections of songs on TH-cam, I see people talking about the music obviously, but nobody ever talks about the music video it seems. The music video can really add to the song and I think this is a great example. I think this is one of the best music videos; just the aesthetic and visuals are so creative and cool.
Agreed. Seems to be a mix of late Victorian and early Soviet aesthetics.
Considering what this song is about and the band's name, that makes sense
its about Bauhaus
I think it's a true testament to the quality of the song that people aren't talking about the incredible video.
@@nicotv6932Russian Constructivist , Dada , Victorian , and yes Bauhaus and it's a very very well collage ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
0:47 on of the greatest transitions in rock history
But wait... just thinking about it, Bohemian Rhapsody!
Facts I was thinking the same thing
@@sjcflawless that's not really rock tho
@@javonmccovery3081 well I’d say queen was the first to add more instruments to their songs then what you see in normal rock but that doesn’t push them out of the rock category.
@@javonmccovery3081 queen is opera rock
This looks like someone just discovered an editing app for the first time and used all the features they could- it's great.
+Carson Montgomery oh cool
Probably adobe after effects
It looks more Renaissance...just because they are named Franz Ferdinand doesn't mean the song is related >_>
Carson Montgomery Please explain me how the name of the band and the song are intentionally related...And Renaissance lasted until the end of the 18th century,,
Also this video is over 10 years old. They probably didn't have as much to work with then as they have now.
Loving that some people here actually know who Franz Ferdinand was, im so here for it, bravo
I can't believe this band is so popular, they named an Archduke after them.
Lmfao
Took me a second but I got ya
LMFO
It was at 699 likes. I have never liked a comment with such happiness.
No, an Archduke named after them
Ingenious tempo change, brilliant song. Well done.
Still my favorite part of the song 🤤
Thank you guitar hero for introducing a me to so much music 😊
I agree
Bro I forgot ALLLL about this song until I heard the main riff then a ancient memory was unlocked and had me smiling hard ash 💯💯💯forgotten nostalgia is simply amazing 🤙🏾😮💨
forgotten nostalgia
Thanks that's my band name now
I miss this era of music
In my opinion, the early-to-mid 2000s music was just as good as 90s music.
I may not have been born in the 2000s or 1990s but their music is so good 😭
Yes :(
90s to mid-00s. Best time for music and especially rock music ever. ❤❤🤘🤘
Now all we get is rap, pop and country crap, and somehow all involves twerking.
This is that type of music that just puts you in a good mood, genuinely makes you feel good. I haven’t heard this song since I was a kid and an Instagram reel brough it back to me and boy am I happy
A Facebook page of blunts n bongs brought me back here. It said name one song people forgotten and this was one that someone named and boy is it forgotten. Great song!
From a young age I remember my dad playing this full volume on the weekends, and he still does!
Is your dad single? 😆
@@rebeccav.3734 no, he is album
1 beer for your dad
Awesome
We just started playing this in my cover band and it's super fun and kills live!
This song has one of best rhythm transitions ever made in the rock genre.
In any genre xD
A great non-rock transition is O.O by Nmixx. It's so good
@@AquaRunner533 naaah
Thats why i am here... I will never stop hearing it❤
It’s actually alternative music, not Rock
Simon, pierce the heavens with your drill!
You may not believe in yourself, the main thing is to believe in me, believe in my belief in you Simon
I love both parts of the song, but tbh I wish the intro was longer...
They can make a whole song outta the into
seriously tho the beginning part is so damn good. I wish it was it’s own song
Emerson Fleming Interpol is the band you’re looking for then, also in general look up bands part of the genre post punk
Yes
Yess
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how fucking smooth that beginning transition is?
I'm getting eargasms
It was the opposite of smooth.
@@Artemis-v8i It still hits hard tho.
@@AmirRazan like that bullet from Gavrilo princip
@@hussein7517 Yes, that Serbian boy.
This feels so nostalgic, almost. 1910's vibes
Good times
I mean they have some early Soviet aesthetics in their music videos
My favorite song of Franz Ferdinand ever!🤩I have set the autoplay 20 times. I won't be tired ever!
Cara essa música e simplesmente perfeita em todos os aspectos
I miss all of those rock bands that popped up in the early 2000's, bands like The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand, Jet, Arctic Monkeys.
I don't know how many of them still make music like this
Doge Yeah, their new sound is alright.
The Strokes fucking suck now, they don't even make rock music anymore.
Thomas Patrick Parker well. at least we will have their GOLD albums from the beggining forever (maybe)
Doge Yeah, they were amazing from 2001-2008. That's good atleast.
The Arctic Monkeys sound might've changed but their best era was definitely the Humbug era. Their sound was just so unique and mysterious. Definitely my favorite album from them.
mobmanic Jajajajajajaajajajajajajajaajjajajzajajajajaja, you are a good comedian.
This song is so simple and I'm not even into rock but I remember hearing this on MTV as a premiere and I thought to myself this is a classic. One of my favorites songs.
absolute CINEMA.
Masterpiece.
Irelia you are so broken 😐
We need more bands like this today.
We have The Struts.
17 years ago, on the first day of Architecture school, the professor welcomed us with this song on full blast in the lecture theatre and I immediately knew I was in good company. I dropped out of Arch school and went to work in order to feed my young family; but the burning desire to design and to create is like a shimmering coal fire that keeps getting hotter as time goes on.
Pink Floyd's High Hopes, New Order's Elegia, Poets of the Fall's Carnival of Rust, and this song ... kept me going through my darkest days. They fed the soul, and kept the fire burning.
If you're going through depression please remember it's temporary; take that first step; there's always a fire in you.
That's heavy, good stuff
Create don't let work control your life get hobbies spend money live for enjoyment Create good art don't let anything stop you from enjoying yourself
This fire
Always remember every storm passes over.
I pray you continue to follow the fire in your soul
I don't know what I'm watching but I just know that the song is gas🔥🔥
It took 13 years, but this song finally hit 100 million views! Still good, too
It has 700mil plays on Spotify
I am responsible for 51, 000, 000 of those views.

Yooo
Fez parte da minha adolescência, som maravilhoso nunca envelhece!!!!
Thé entire SONG IS Amazing
the way this incarnation of Franz Ferdinand burst into the scene as a complete artistic package, audio-visual, was incredible. especially the first couple records, and the way they presented themselves in that era had so much intention and drive. I'm mentioning this because most bands these days, roughly 20 years later, don't even come close. this revival moment had a joyful ire about critiquing the looming digital sensory overload age (this is pre iphone), via constant allusions to analog visual aesthetics yet in a way that poked fun back on itself which is perhaps what made them loveable rather than just pretentious. early Franz Ferdinand was a rare mystical artistic accident that celebrated humor and playfulness somehow mixed with a gothic sensibility and darkness, delivered with a heart warming sincerity. they were facetious enough to call the venue they played at the Chateau, while wearing eyeliner and singing about being served on a platter.. miss this time now looking back, but in a way I'm happy that they evolved and kept their journey going, songs like this though remain in the time capsule that is youtube as relics of a weirdly hopeful but unhinged time that was the post 9-11 aughts..
