Oh man I love Franz and Grimes. This is so cute. I'd like to hear an electric version of it, though. Something that sounds like it could have been on their album "Tonight."
This is very funny and great I think they made it into their own style and they're not trying to having a super-voice or even sound like Grimes. They sing in a Franz Ferdinand style and they make me laugh. SO great!!
LYRICS: Another walk about after dark It's my point of view 'Cause someone could break your neck Coming up behind you, always coming and you'd never have a clue I never look behind, all the time I will wait forever, always looking straight Thinking, counting, all the hours you wait See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (la, la, la, la, la) See you on a dark night See you on a dark night And no, I'm not a jerk, I would ask If you could help me out It's hard to understand 'Cause when you're really by yourself It's hard to find someone to hold your hand And now it's good to be tough with me But I will wait forever I need someone now to look into my eyes and tell me "Girl, you know you gotta watch your health" To look into my eyes and tell me La, la, la, la, la To look into my eyes and tell me La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la Oh, oh Oh, oh See you on a dark night See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (oh) See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (la, la, la, la, la) See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (oh, oh)
Its not a copy, its their 'take' on it. As someone else said, it is Franz Ferdinand, it is going to have a cold feeling to it. I prefer this version far more than the 'innovative and incredible' original.
Grimes is amazing so talented is great when shes breaking g thru through pure talent snd not personally selling out. she's so ace. I liked her few years back. she was so cute and pure talent now she's like lady gaga but cool oozing Madonna levels of awareness and awareness. idvlovvto see her cover more so. I saw her in Manchester on art angels tour most recently she was amazing. in few more years she'll be like an electro amander palmer
Not sure why this gets the hate it does. Its a cover by Franz Ferdinand, not a copy. It is going to have a different tone and mood. I prefer this by far over the original. Edit- Also, some people are saying that they are bad singers or something, I think that has to do with the live performance and recording, not so much their talent.
Can anyone recommend any cool covers in the same as this? like I really like Radiohead doing Portishead's the ripp, and stuff like this. If I see one more Pop-punk cover of "Wrecking ball" I'm gonna not be able to live in society any longer.
Check out the Gnarls Barkley cover of Radiohead's Reckoner. Also Israel (Izzy) Kamakawiwoʻole's cover of Somewhere Over the Rainbow (if you haven't already) and Obadiah Parker's rendition Outkast's Hey Yeah. They're some of my absolute favourites.
i love the original but as someones who is really fond of the lyrics of this song its nice to see a stripped down version. that being said, i do think the subject matter works better with a female voice. does anyone know of a more acoustic female cover?
Now can we get Grimes to cover "Take me out"?
Or Lucid Dreams
😂
Use AI
@@deepsi181 Fuck that soulless, robotic bullshit - and fuck you for suggesting it.
Not to be harsh, like...
One of my favorite bands covering one of my favorite artists. Totally unexpected. Enjoyable.
@MY DOG CAN PUT YOU IN A HEADLOCK
u got shit personality!................
@MY DOG CAN PUT YOU IN A HEADLOCK Bro u ok
are you the guy who was assassinated
+Michael Crikey (MikeyCrikey) heee heee :)
don't suggest things like that, you'll start a war
well he certainy muderd the song
:) haha... clever guy...
after almost 20 years of the group's existence this joke doesn't seem funny anymore imho
Oh man I love Franz and Grimes. This is so cute. I'd like to hear an electric version of it, though. Something that sounds like it could have been on their album "Tonight."
you can easy hear, how this song must come from somebody like grimes and not Franz ferdinand, and thats why it's good
This is just so damned beautiful. It makes me cry.
Definitely one of the best covers I've heard in years. A good cover always takes the source material and translates it into the covering band's sound.
It's not as bad as you guys say. It's just an acoustic set. And their singer has a good voice.
This was pleasant and lovely
ağlayacağım şimdi en sevdiğim şarkıcıyı Franz Ferdinand coverlamış aaaahhhhhhh
Omg the franz ferdinand sing a song of grimes omg is ss beatiful
Bloody brilliant
I think they did a nice job; it sounds like a Franz song and is melodic. Grimes is a unique soul but I appreciate both versions.
I love Grimes! I think her sound is extraordinary.
This is very funny and great I think they made it into their own style and they're not trying to having a super-voice or even sound like Grimes. They sing in a Franz Ferdinand style and they make me laugh. SO great!!
At least I understood the lyrics
XD
omg
wow if I was she, I would be very proud of Franz Ferdinand doing a cover of her music *-*
LYRICS:
Another walk about after dark
It's my point of view
'Cause someone could break your neck
Coming up behind you, always coming and you'd never have a clue
I never look behind, all the time
I will wait forever, always looking straight
Thinking, counting, all the hours you wait
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah)
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (la, la, la, la, la)
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night
And no, I'm not a jerk, I would ask
If you could help me out
It's hard to understand
'Cause when you're really by yourself
It's hard to find someone to hold your hand
And now it's good to be tough with me
But I will wait forever
I need someone now to look into my eyes and tell me
"Girl, you know you gotta watch your health"
To look into my eyes and tell me
La, la, la, la, la
To look into my eyes and tell me
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
See you on a dark night
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (oh)
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah)
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah)
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (la, la, la, la, la)
See you on a dark night (ooh, ah) (oh, oh)
Haha. This makes me happy.
Me too :)
Lets be happy together
I think this is a really good cover, why would you dislike it?
People are disliking it? Thankfully all I can see are positive comments!
I love their covers so much.
much easier to understand the lyrics in this version
They screwed up the lyrics a bit.
i love Franz Ferdinand and Grimes. This is amazing
This is fucking amazing. I'm smiling. :)
lol. I guess not liking something makes you superior, right? That's hilarious.
shoutout to Bob in the corner intensely scrutinising the back of his guitar

Amazing!
Complete sacrilege towards a completely innovative and incredible song.
I wouldnt go that far like, it's worse no doubt though.
Its not a copy, its their 'take' on it. As someone else said, it is Franz Ferdinand, it is going to have a cold feeling to it.
I prefer this version far more than the 'innovative and incredible' original.
Love it!
This is seriously amazing
Excellent country version of this song. I don't know what people are complaining about.
love it!
Just love it
WOW, fantastic
I love it.
i used to think that a sane mind wasn't able to cover Grimes... Amazing
Grimes is amazing so talented is great when shes breaking g thru through pure talent snd not personally selling out. she's so ace. I liked her few years back. she was so cute and pure talent now she's like lady gaga but cool oozing Madonna levels of awareness and awareness. idvlovvto see her cover more so. I saw her in Manchester on art angels tour most recently she was amazing. in few more years she'll be like an electro amander palmer

Well, that is just totally adorable.

i love the original but as someones who is really fond of the lyrics of this song its nice to see a stripped down version. that being said, i do think the subject matter works better with a female voice. does anyone know of a more acoustic female cover?
Amei!
