you have no idea how good they are live. Just came back from a concert. Take into account crap youtube quality etc etc Defs recommend seeing them even if they are not your favorite. trust me, IT WILL CHANGE
They actually got the title from James Joyce's book "Ulysses" which is a fantastic book. It's the "greatest English language book of all time" as people say.
Yes. In fact, I'm reading it right now. Though James Joyce took a bit of inspiration from the Odyssey, FF have said somewhere that Joyce's novel was where they got the name.
Really? I read that Alex has stated the inspiration for the name of the song was from The Odyssey. Supposedly Ulysses is the scottish name for Odysseus, and that the whole album is about been lost like Ulysses in the story.
@Theboxset It's just a Fender '72 tele deluxe, originally in walnut but the finish has worn off. I think his is probably a vintage one though, but a new one wouldnt cost more than £600 which is around $900
@Mellylemba No kidding! If Scotland produces guys like the ones in Franz Ferdinand (namely Alex...christ, he's hot here...) AND Craig, I'm booking myself a ticket and moving there pronto. I know Craig also interviewed Alex on here one time, I'd love to see that video put up here. Awesome song as well, one of the best ones off their latest album. Excellent groove, and fantastic performance of it to boot.
I met Nick as well before the show in the bar. He is also very sweet and sexy but I didn't chat with him as long as I did with Alex cause he was grabbing a quick beer before the show. Next time more time with Nick. I also want to meet Paul and Bob and of course see Alex again.
He's attractive but not as gorgeous as Alex, at least in my eyes but than I got a chance to meet him and discovering that he's sweet as well as sexy just made him that much more gorgeous to me.
He is so damn hot. I'm not even gay. Just... his confidence.
Yes, Craig Ferguson is hot.
love how nick grooves to the songs, very handsome men those franz are, good music!

I feel like this song is a bit faster on the album...
ff always know how to play their songs according to the occasion, like in this, they chose to to play it slower as they're in a studio

Shite, Franz Ferdinand with American accent sounds rather strange..
ALEX Q SEZY SECSY SE VEIA UnU NSJSKS

Good stuff. Too bad Alex' shoes didn't start a fad.
I prefer Damon Albarn !
Alex STEALS the show, hands down... he makes it look so fun.
Nicholas McCarthy HOT!HOT!HOT!
Alex you're so fine...I hate when my favorite bands get famous.
Get a life.
too jealous to mention
It's a good thing they didn't, coz then they wouldn't be special right?
The singing seems a little off.
This is HORRIBLE!
