2000s rock icons Franz Ferdinand still adore their biggest song, Take Me Out, but believe their new album The Human Fear can 'hold it's own'
Franz Ferdinand still love their early hits, 20 years on In 2004, Scottish rock band Franz Ferdinand struck gold with their single Take Me Out — 20 years on and they still love their classic tracks. The song, penned by frontman Alex Kapranos and former bandmate Nick McCarthy, has just broken the 1,000,000,000 stream mark on Spotify. Take Me Out might not have reached number one at the time but it has firmly claimed a place as a 00s indie classic to the band’s delight.
‘It probably had quite an effect on making this record as they weren’t competing with a deep-cut B side from the third album. They were competing with the songs that everybody knows.’ He wanted the new tracks to ‘stand up’ and ‘hold their own’ against Take Me Out and the real iconic songs from their huge career.
