[geodon11]

[BrutalBrutalDude]

franz ferdinand is that dude who started world war two but biffy started world war 100000000000000000000000000000­000000000000000000000000000000­0000

[fglynn961]

@BrutalBrutalDude World war one mate! Good Point though

[toolworks]

@BrutalBrutalDude Haha, World war 1 dude. And he hardly started it! He was assassinated causing existing military pressures to finally release.

[xCorby94]

But they are shite now...

[BrutalBrutalDude]

@xCorby94 no they arent just cause they have reached commercial sucsess you little hipster

[xCorby94]

@BrutalBrutalDude success* and they are shite now.

[BrutalBrutalDude]

@xCorby94 therye shite theyre so mainstream, i dont want to be assoiciated with that people wont respect me



[krissymf]

Check out my cover of this Biffy cover!

[Emilyskilled]

@bigdode Seriously.... you are kidding me?

[capbrannigan]

this song has is famous for a ridiculous tempo change. biffys does that like 3x each song....good cover choice

[LilyColborne]

Brilliant!

[bigdode]

Biffy when they were amazing...now they are merely a shell of what they used to be! =/'

[BrutalBrutalDude]

@bigdode stfu dont be a hipster

[volvomantom]

@bigdode Why? Because they're not a niche band that only a select few people listen to any more? You should wake up to the fact that, at the end of the day, they're still making great music and drop that pathetic elitist attitude of yours.

[krissymf]

@bigdode I still like them alot but the new stuff is not as good as the old stuff in my opinion.

[garyjettrike]

fucking love it

[SkilletFan1888]

@RFCjc1993 That doesn't even make sense... You're the one who started this stupid arguement with sectarian comments, so yes, you're the one who needs to get a life. Here's a hint, the dislike button is there for a reason, it's my opinion, I listened to the entire song you retard.

[SkilletFan1888]

@RFCjc1993 Ha, that's funny. Stupid sectarian cunt, get a life. I disliked it cause the music is shit, back the fuck off.

[huckingfipsters]

WHAT. WHY WASN'T I INFORMED OF THIS EARLIER?

[SkilletFan1888]

Woop, 100th dislike! Seriously, this version sucks.

[0tto777]

@SkilletFan1888 Wow... you sad child. this is epic. And I liked the original... when I was about 13. Now I've grown up....

[PeterL571]

Keep calm and Mon the Biff!

[TheNeutralFan]

People, you can't hate on the Biff.

If you are mentally retarded enough to begin to consider the prospect of not liking them, you deserve to and will be lynched by Biffy's fanatic hardcore fanbase.

Of which I am a member. So unless someone wants a hell of a bitch fight on their hands, they'll shut up and open their ears.

[TheCheater010]

@TheNeutralFan Yeah :D

[MrMelForet]

This is just this song played in biffy clyro's way. I know for certain I prefer franz ferdinand version but you can't deny this is fuckin cool

[sammmpon]

This is almost as bad as their version of buddy holly. Im pretty sure my soul just threw up...

[grymloque]

@sammmpon :') would you prefer a cover where they just played the same song note for note? is that what you wanted? there's a way to listen to that. it's called LISTEN TO THE FUCKING FRANZ FERDINAND VERSION.

[dsmyth563]

This should be on gods ipod.

[XXstilletoXX]

Awful cover. Great song absolutely ruined.

[RikuDarkness16]

@XXstilletoXX Tis a fantastic cover really, if you don't like Biffy, then don't bother listening! :)

[snotrod7]

No.

[districteleven41]

you ruined this song

[Olie23231]

@districteleven41 It got biffy clyroed, not ruined, you can still listen to the boring franz ferdinand one if you wish

[DaneBabyJo]

sooooo good MON THE BIFF!!!

[liambrawley]

This is awesome - its almost like punk.

[Olie23231]

Anyone else think that if biffy played this it would be absolutely amazing live? Especially around the 1:40 mark

[ArchaicSushi]

This is really, really good... but I don't see how anyone can say this beats the original, because the original is LOVE. And it is the ORIGINAL. :D ♥

[TheNeutralFan]

@ArchaicSushi Original means nothing if another band changes it almost irrecognisably into a better song, IMO.

Also IMO, Biffy have done that here.

[jamscones92]

Anyone got some form of tab of this foshizzle?

[PaulSLambeth]

Recently got tired of the original. This is superb. Love the screaming and dissonant chords.

[velliebellie]

Better than the original! <3

[father042]

scottland FTW

[RossD888]

@father042 *Scotland

[father042]

@RossD888 we'@ got a spelling police here

[RossD888]

@father042 Sí mi amigo

[luizfmaf]

The grunge screaming here just fits the song perfectly.

[MissGeePee]

that is epic x

[zordzilla]

This kicks the ass of the original

[moreilly914]

it sounds so much like nirvana

[1337Smurphy]

@moreilly914 Sounds like Biffy Clyro too :)

[moreilly914]

@1337Smurphy haha :P

[Tinashowa]

@moreilly914 No

[sheeplikesganja]

@moreilly914 doesn't sound like nirvana at all :S

[devendrabanhart25]

i hate fanboys

[krissymf]

Check out my cover of this Biffy Clyro version of Take Me Out :)

[shaunTalexander]

@krissymf Clyro...Biffy CLYRO. Oh by the way, your a dick.

[krissymf]

@shaunTalexander I was joking. I love this band!

[double0Zero11]

@SuperMegabar I facepalmed so hard I think I broke my hand.

[SuperMegabar]

@double0Zero11 What?? i was replying to a comment you fucking asshole??

[TobyKaiserDogs]

@SuperMegabar

Well yeah.... Thats what a cover is!!

[SuperMegabar]

@TobyKaiserDogs Um.. no im replying to a previous comment and most covers just actually use the same chords where as Biffy changes the song entirely

[lucalimut1]

andatevene a fanculoo!!!!!!!!! che gran cagata!!!!

[SuperMegabar]

Everytime Biffy Clyro do a cover they basicly take the lyrics and put different music to it :P good though!

[RMassEffectR]

@SuperMegabar ...are you like.....okay? ......because we can get you checked?

[SuperMegabar]

@RMassEffectR What?

[LuanaFortal]

sexy cover.

[LRowe55]

Only good cover by Biffy Clyro I've ever heard. Prove me wrong.

[RimPictures]

@LRowe55 Cover of Killing in the name -proved once

Umbrella cover- proved twice. made a shit song like umbrella good!

[TheNeutralFan]

@LRowe55 /watch?v=kdcQaaXZIsU&feature=r­elated

Ta-da.

[19be95]

briliant.

[frrranks]

amazing chorus

[UberCoolBen]

Man, I just love that new chorus. Excellent wee riff there.

[linkzelda30]

oh wow, thanks for completely murdering my favorite song.

[TheTvrulesthenation]

linkzelda30

Hey credit where its due, its a good cover & nothing like the original. Thats what a cover should be like, you may dislike it. But its not shite by a long shot.

If you want to see a BAD cover youtube Take That-Smells like teen spirit. I'm not even a big Nirvana fan but christ they slaughtered it

[kiocciolina]

They really sounds to me like genius!! This cover is awesome. I love Franz Ferdinand as well, but this cover deserve a lot of glory on its own!

[ViciousDeliciousIV]

Y is it all his covers sound nothing like the actual songs. He'd have original songs to make money off of if they just changed the lyrics

[TheNeutralFan]

@ViciousDeliciousIV Because Biffy are too inventive to just sing someone else's song and to honest to pass it off as entirely their own.

Biffy do their covers for the fun of it.

By the way, in case you're thinking of "he" as "Biffy", they're a three-piece band.

Sorry, it just pisses me off to no end when people make that mistake.

[ViciousDeliciousIV]

@TheNeutralFan o sorry, just found out about these guys and I thought the lead singer was the frontman of the band, and i thought that was his name. My bad

[TheNeutralFan]

@ViciousDeliciousIV Ah well, no harm done.

It really is a wierd name, so you can be excused.

In case you were wondering, the name of the frontman/guitarist/lead singer is Simon Neil, and James and Ben Johnston (yes, brothers) are on bass and drums respectively.

Anyway, if you've just found out about Biffy then its good that you're jumping in at the deep end. Their older stuff and mental covers like this are less accessible, but in many ways more experimental than their newer stuff.

[ViciousDeliciousIV]

@TheNeutralFan Yea, i see that. They take their covers further than any I have heard before

[TheBigRyan94]

@TheNeutralFan That may be the most annoying thing in the world. People are all like: "Oh yeah, i love When We Collide by Biffy Clyro! He's so good!"

It makes me want to shove their face into a blender. But yeah, MON THE BIFF!!

[TheNeutralFan]

@TheBigRyan94 While shoving someone's face into a blender is perhaps somewhat extreme, the extreme (and dominant) part of me agrees with you.

I'm all for new Biffy fans, but there's no stopping my pet hates.

Ignorant bastards.

[GeorgeBguitar]

@TheBigRyan94 I know! When people refer to Biffy Clyro as a person it fucks me off. I have to restrain myself and awkwardly smile aha... But fucking listen to that guitar work, especially around 2:36, so fucking good. such an underrated guitarist Simon is. Great fucking arrangement.

[VictoriaW155]

@TheBigRyan94, i couldn't agree more, when people said that I'd ask them what their favorite album is, that shuts them up for a while.... MON SIMON NEIL YA SEXY BEAST

[xXVampireXxXSpawnXx]

@TheBigRyan94 i don't think i could possibly love anyone more than you at this very moment in time.....except the biff.

[HarmLess7]

what? this song drops... MESS IN MY PANTS! Biffy = God

[DJStainthorpe]

@HarmLess7 witch is better the cover of the cover (take E out)

[HarmLess7]

@DJStainthorpe that makes no sense at all, in any way, shape, or form....

[mixindave1]

82 people love bruno mars's penis

[CalumMaclean92]

This cover gives me wood

[94Morton]

MON THE BIFFY!

[Indiebanana]

perfecto



[youtoobeiz4loosers]

musically good but i don't think the feel of the song works with the lyrics and the more light hearted essence of the original.

[theycallhimuno]

How to cover a song and make it sound like wrote it, Lesson 1.

[azispazipink]

getting pretty intense here..

[antonio610]

Damn, people get really pissed about YouTube comments.

[bexsterxxxxx]

Fuck off all you Biffy haters, no-one wants you here :/

[nmeyer89]

pretty shitty

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Are you a troll or are you just deaf as a no-eared doorknob?

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan Are you one of those retards who thinks screaming is singing? They butchered this song just like how they're butchering good music. It was decent until 1:04 and then just turned to complete GARBAGE.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Are you a troll?

If you are, give up, you've been rumbled.

If you're not, then you're a sad little inconsiderate twit. No offense.

Screaming is a form of singing, in the same way that playing a guitar or a saxophone or a trumpet or a piano or a xylophone or a pink ukelele is a form of music.

And what the fuck do you mean by that second sentence? Biffy have never done a full blown, album-quality cover, and they're one of the most original bands out there.

Can I call you a dickhead?

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan Screaming is not original. It's overused and is complete garbage. Screaming is to singing as making noise is to music. You obviously don't know jack shit about good music as noted by your lack of understanding. Get the fuck out of here you pansy-ass, tea-sucking Brit.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Right, so you are a troll.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan LMFAO.

"This is the greatest music ever!"

"It's not music, he's not singing, he's screaming and it sucks ass."

"OMFG TROLL!@!@#"

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Did I ever say any of that?

Ceom on, I know you're a troll. At least have the decency to admit it.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan Typical dipshit youtuber right here. Can't spell simple words, can't understand simple sentences, calls everyone a troll.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 ...

Please admit it. Honestly, you've been caught.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan Wow... just wow, you're serious aren't you? You honestly believe everyone who has an opinion differing from your own is a troll don't you? Do you live in your mom's basement or something? Come out and see the light, dude.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 No, I feel that anyone who appears to have a thick-headed opinion designed purely to offend and annoy people and is too stubborn to seriously listen to anyone else is a troll.

Plus, you called me a pansy-assed, tea-sucking Brit.

Forgive me if I find that mildly offensive.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan Which you are. This "music" is garbage and amounts to little more than children throwing a temper tantrum.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 I'm actually Scottish, so Brit doesn't really apply to me. Unless you want to be politically incorrect and lump me in with sixty million people who live in a seperate country, shut up.

What music DO you like? Metallica? Justin Bieber?

[TheEmogician]

@TheNeutralFan You're Scottish and you don't know that Scotland is in Britain? What the fuck...

[TheNeutralFan]

@TheEmogician Well, Scotland is in Britain, but "British" generally refers to English people.

You would understand if you were me.

[TheEmogician]

@TheNeutralFan "British" generally refers to British people, unless you're ignorant. I don't see why being you, or being Scottish should change that by any stretch of the imagination.

[TheNeutralFan]

@TheEmogician Ah, sorry, missed this somehow.

Mate, British technically refers to the whole of Britain, but in practice, it really only applies to English people.

Trust me, you would understand if you were me.

[TheEmogician]

@TheNeutralFan I still don't understand what you mean by "you would understand if you were me".

[TheNeutralFan]

@TheEmogician Eh, you would understand if you were me.

No, really, just forget about it. I very often say things that make no sense.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 If you don't like this music why are you here? You're going around calling people who disagree with you every name under the sun yet when you're called out on it you go on the defensive... Logic... You lack it. Nobody has forced you to listen to this if you don't like it don't watch it simple as why ruin other peoples enjoyment by acting like a 12 year old "MY MUSIC IS BETTER THAN YOURS!" grow up mate... Seriously...

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell I'm not your "mate", retard. Go suck some tea and cock you cum-crumpet.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Okay let me approach this differently apparently you have trouble understanding... Nobody has forced you to listen to this correct? So why are you here? Also how is your opinion more valid than anybody elses? But ofc you're not really here for any reason other than to get a rise out of people and that makes you a very very sad little kid :). "Go suck some tea" :O You sure told me! Can I take a guess. You're american right?

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell I stumbled upon this video because of Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out", or did that slip your feeble mind while you were too busy listening to these retards screaming in a microphone and calling it music? Just because YOU like something doesn't mean everyone else will. This cover sucks out loud and everyone is entitled to express their opinions whether you babies like it or not.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Dude you're awfully pissed off about what? A cover you don't like... My point is this you're blowing this waaaaay out of proportion. Ofc you're entitled to your opinion when did I say you weren't? My point is your ranting is doing little more than making you look like a toddler throwing a tantrum... I will turn your comment back on you sir: Just because YOU dislike something doesn't mean that everyone else will so why be an obnoxious prick and openly insult others?

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell I'm not pissy about a shitty cover. I expressed how much I didn't like it by my first comment. Then we get shitcocks like you and TheNeutralFag who have to defend their precious band against unsettling opinions every two minutes.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Question where did I say anything about liking this band? I don't particularly like this but I gave it a whirl. It's called manners something you apparently know fuck all about. Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you have to dickslap it in everybody's faces. Do you know what music is? Entertainment... If it entertains people guess what... it's done it's job. You're a musical snob, just because you dislike it doesn't disqualify it as music that was my issue with you.

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell Blah blah blah lol, that's all I read.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Oh sorry didn't realise you were illiterate aswell. As opposed to your style which can be summed up as *AVOID QUESTIONS AND CRITICISM AND INSERT GENERIC LAUGHABLY BAD INSULT* Fact is no matter how much you bitch about it this song will still be here and people will still enjoy it why bother getting wound up over it? Think about it... Goodbye.

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell Didn't say shit about wanting people not to enjoy it. I think it's a shitty cover, from a shitty band, screaming like monkeys into a mic.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Shush the band don't care, their record label don't care, their fans don't care... You're obviously looking for confrontation shown by your general attitude and use of language. It's pathetic and futile you're opinion doesn't matter one bit to anyone who likes this band and rightly it shouldn't if they like it good for them, if they don't stop listening to it... You weren't forced to listen to this and it's only your own stupidity that lead you here it's clearly titled Biffy Clyro.

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell It's clearly titled Shitty Cover.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 No, that's the sheet on you bed. Look straight.

Why the fuck should I care what you say when you're a pathetic little dickhead, set out with the sole intention of causing twattery on the grandest scale possible?

Really, if you want a random exchange of insults, I can give you that. But I'd rather settle this civilly, and so I'll try my hardest.

Fuck off, you motherless scum.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan "sheet on you bed" Nice spelling, bro.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Yup. Nice spelling.

I've given up being reasonable.

Fuck you.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan lol

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 No... Even if it were that surely makes you even more of a tard for clicking on it? Fail much?

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell The only thing that "fails" is this shitty cover of a good song.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 In your *opinion* perhaps. Personally I think the original is shit anyways but thats my *opinion*. I'll reiterate my point... IF it were titled "Shitty cover" as you've claimed why did you click on it? IF you were looking for the original by Franz Ferdinand why click on a video that clearly states in it's title "Biffy Clyro" and "Franz Ferdinand *Cover*"? The only reason you stumbled across this is through your own stupidity. Care to fail again sir?

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell I stumbled upon it through Franz Ferdinand's "Take Me Out". Are you retarded or something? I feel like I have to repeat myself multiple times.

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 It's clearly titled why click it? Were you dropped down a flight of stairs head first as a child? Thats not the issue however the issue is you're acting like a giant twat yay you have an opinion how amazing are you... Have you ever heard the phrase "If you haven't got anything good to say say nothing". But ofc you're an arrogant dipshit I don't really expect you to grasp it.

[nmeyer89]

@TheLazysquirell lmao umad

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Go get run over and shot, you worthless little idiotic spasm.

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan lol someone's mad

[TheLazysquirell]

@nmeyer89 Not really I just treat people with the same level of respect I'm treated with but if it makes you feel better sure I'm absolutely livid I'm seriously raging I've never been more angry in my life :) it amuses me to watch you flail around trying to avoid responding to criticism.

[TheNeutralFan]

@nmeyer89 Jesus fuck, you're annoying. You were caught when you posted your first message.

How hard can it be to bugger off?

[nmeyer89]

@TheNeutralFan "Wahhh, he doesn't like this garbage music and I don't like his posts, he must be at troll waaahhh!!" You're the dumbest fuck I've ever had the displeasure of discoursing with.

[Friiiiick]

@nmeyer89 They're more musically talented than you. You're going out of your way to annoy people. You're a troll. You may leave now.

[nmeyer89]

@Friiiiick I don't go out of my way to annoy people. I stay within my path but get stopped by garbage music like this.

[TheNeutralFan]

@TheNeutralFan Some nice spelling there.

[therealdooty]

meh. i like biffo but sori not big on that 1. just my oppinion tho

[bassmaschine]

this is the best cover in history of music

[kasimovaya]

@bassmaschine thats a bit of a stupid comment to make if you havent heard all of the covers in the history of music

[TheNeutralFan]

@kasimovaya Hey, it's called overdramatic exaggeration. Jermemy Clarkson is a pro at it. Actually, I hate Jeremy Clarkson. Flame as you wish, I'm not gonna defend this guy.

[bassmaschine]

@kasimovaya its just a saying. and maybe i have heard all cover in the history of music, who knows?

[LanDenMuppet]

It was perfect right up until 1:13

[HarrisDouglasSRFC]

@LanDenMuppet  why? what happened? if anything it got better

[Vokja]

this is musicianship

[vimto4281]

Biffy you did it again turned an awesome song into a song chuck norris would be proud of.

[toolworks]

Hahaha! awesome alternative to take me out! - A Franz fan

[jokez112]

fuck yeah the screaming is the best part of this cover

[tvrulesnation]

I want them to do Yellow-Coldplay, it would be deadly :)

Cant beat jaggy snake for screaming

[TheNeutralFan]

@tvrulesnation Yellowcardplay?

I say hell yeah.

Well, Biffy Yellowcardplay

[HardRockSkinHead]

wtf :L

[patrickinurface]

heavy.

[JordanMadani]

Win. Total win. Apart from the mess in my pants, that's pretty fail. But overall, WIN.

[spanglyabi1]

@JordanMadani hahaha this made me laugh!! xx

[Threxd]

Holy shit. I came.

[HarrisDouglasSRFC]

@TomasRockHard They're not taking the piss the just changed Take me out into their own style

[Threxd]

@TomasRockHard Never mind their off-beat playing and high contrasting between simple melodies and highly complex sequences. It's heavier and more energy-filled in some parts, with quieter, anticipating moments in other places. It plays with your expectations of the song. That's Biffy's style.

[tomisthesound]

@TomasRockHard This isn't dissimilar to early Biffy stuff and definitely isn't screamo.

[DYKTMM]

@TomasRockHard Because this is definitely screamo... >_>

[manicmacintosh]

@TomasRockHard Screamo. What a gimp.

[TomasRockHard]

@manicmacintosh Trolololol
