The song he heard was "Take Me Out" by Franz Ferdinand.

Mark Smith Even more interestingly, lead singer of Franz Ferdinand Alex Kapranos was dating Eleanor Friedberger at the time, Britt's ex and leader singer of the absolutely amazing band The Fiery Furnaces.

"The words came kind of fast....I didn't know exactly what they meant but I liked them....they kind of felt good."
I feel like this applies to a lot of Spoon lyrics and part of the reason I love this band and Britt's writing.

Like Spoon's music, this dude's rock and roll coolness refuses to age.
