it fucking kills me that on every friendly fires video the top 2 comments are by some fucking skanks talking about how they think the singer's sexy or something. never a thing about the actual music. its really, REALLY disappointing
Awesome band, just clicked on them and fell in love with this song. I use to hate live versions of songs but this song is amazing live. I listened to the album version and wasn't to fond of this song on there. It's not loud enough and there is no expression like there is here. They should of made this version the album version
such a good song! i think about the people in clubs and they try look hard for the lads as much as the girls! waiting to call you a pussy'ole, then my older brothers mates walk in and go to the dancefloor and dance pretty much like Ed, gotta feel free!
main point though is, can remember watching this night it was aired and i was sold straight away.
I just saw them at Electric Picnic this weekend, they were unbelievable, the lead singer is one of the most entertaining frontmen I've ever seen, I love the way he dances
@THECLAYSTER hahaha he wasnt dancing! he became my age and had a crush on me but i saw him as a friend, and then i changed my mind... i coudnt figure out who was in my dream until i saw this lmao
i'm a guy and i can safely Ed is seriously cool! what's wrong with dancing and having fun on stage, not to mention singing perfectly in key and with rhythm?! nothing, that's what.
he dances like a goose trying to hump a duck. i don't think the dancing is going to get the ladies. maybe the singing. but then again hipster girls like awkward shit... good song though
@glenakatsr he can't hit them cos he doesn't sing that part in the original song. the chorus vocals in the original version is done by the girls from au revoir
Never heard of these guys - just flipped on Later with Jools and watched this... and I had to look them up! Might be picking up CD in near future... dig 'em!
I think the way people remove other peoples opinions on this website is a joke too. If they're not actually saying anything disgusting (racism, sexism etc) and are merely expressing an opinion I think it's pathetic to remove it. The videos on Youtube are there for everyone to watch them, not just people who like it. I wouldn't watch something if I found it horrible, I just didn't get it and wanted some other intelligent opinions rather than NME hype, which I don't really trust.
Thanks to the people who actually answered my question rather than call me an idiot or telling me to fuck off. Scruffz and 1trojan1 I watched it because I wanted to give it a chance and was just asking other peoples thoughts on it so chill out a bit. Have u never seen something and not "got it" first time and tried to give it a chance? If not then you're probably missing out on a lot of good music yourselves! Thanks to those of you who gave me inciteful opinions as to why they enjoy this band.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Can someone explain to me what's good about this band? I just don't find anything about them enjoyable and find myself having an urge to punch the singer. I can't stand his posturing or the way he sings. I think percussively they're pretty good, but that's not enough for me. I don't think I can remember any of the songs after i've heard them. Not trying to slag off, I just want to understand their appeal. What does everyone like about them?
Yeah yeah yeah, we can see the hip thrusting.
But is anyone paying attention to the DRUMMING and the overall song?
The 'MUSIC' is hot, too.
