Franz Ferdinand - Sexy Boy (Air Cover)

[BVargas78]

Sounds like the theme song for NAMBLA

[Ultr4T3ch]

Top Comments are gay.

[spacefreak09]

This song is so sexy!

[mellejulieha]

houuuuuu sexy !!!!!!!!!!!

[MBUK1000]

this in a way is very Gay!

[primulafan101]

@MBUK1000 IN A GOOD WAY YOU MEAN!!

[ninascrew]

Even though they are one of my favourite groups ever, and this is one of my favourite songs ever, the version is HORRIBLE. It's been a terrible day...

[rontenn]

Worse version of this lovely song!

[klauzes]

I just took a huge dump

[SoupyGeorge]

The only way this could be any gayer is if they let Dale Winton do a freestyle rap in the middle 8.

[barabaspolo]

sounds like hitler trying to have sex

[fristytron]

Ni de coña.

[MaxRamoneSRB]

I LIKE THIS SHIT!

[wayno52]

The sound quality is crap, but the song is ... novel, haha. I like the bit of "Song 2" near the end, lol

[richjwoods88]

i like how both top comments contradict each other...

[prittglue]

ok !

[ericbrianstevens]

sounds like the stooges

[OrangeJuiceCartel]

I prefer this version to the original

[zerutuby]

terrible!!!!!!!

[ABIGAMIGA]

@zerutuby yes is very horrible!!! I like Franz Ferdinan & special Air but this version is ...puffff!! :P

[Jamieeeloren]

I love this versionnnnnnnnn so much

[felya420]

Their time to shine will come again soon! Probably around new years, when VH1 does another 'one hit wonders of the decade' or 'where are they now'.

[sunsetguy01]

Sounds great to me, done in Franz Ferdinand fashion! :D

[andydufresne87]

great!!! f*ckin great!!!!

[SUAZO32]

seems a mixing from depeche mode air and david bowie...

[kingbob182]

Love Franz Ferdinand. Love 'Sexy Boy'

Hate this cover. Oh well, still a great band

[nillychoirpop]

i clicked on this expecting to hear Air play sexy boy, and boy was i wrong.

[sofiabailote]

this is excellent, reminds me of mid-70s Bowie in his Berlin phase. really good, so different from the original (which I love). 5 stars in my opinion.

[ImNotANed]

@sofiabailote I completely agree

[Evenstar213]

Don't sing in french ?

[supertye]

Very ambitious cover, I quite like it.

FF always cover, pretty unusual songs like this.

[michellin111]

Excellent !!

[MrSunshinexoxoxo]

Sexxxy Boy ... Sexxxy Voice !!!! Xoxo

[bbalantain]

not too sexy!!!

[MrWesf2]

what the fuck ?

[diduhear]

its pretty shit but its hilarious

[sirsilk]

it's because the original was so smooth is why they roughed it up the way they did...kinda hard to digest.

[BohemianAsh]

Wow, this really sucks. The original by Air shits on this.

[Haladran]

It was a poor song to begin with, and now... Still is.

[spillaspella]

wow, it sounds a lot like Roxy Music.

it's not as good as the Air version but hats off to making a unique version.

[Katyblur]

uh chingaron la cancion...''¡00'¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡­¡¡¡¡ bad bad bad

[Lindelamare]

Ouch this is awful. Fine if it was played spontaneously after a few drinks, but to go into a studio and release it to the public?

[tys40]

i think its cool

[sanosukke]

This is awful.

[kmylo4]

they didn't get it!!!!

[greentoaster]

>implying this is psychedelic

Fucking children.

[Murder1Machine]

it's different, I like it...

[skatermoe4]

WTF really?......... you guys have a lot of good stuff but this cover was pretty bad LEAVE AIR ALONE they dont need to be covered by any one.

[rockinrollex]

EVERYBODY WHO GAVE THUMBS DOWN = DONT YOU EVER HEAR THE WORD PSYCHEDELIC ??? :) :) :) :)

[MichellePlettke]

@rockinrollex you're so right... really don't know why but everytime i hear this song it reminds me of "being kong" from tthe twinkranes. not the same but also Psychedelic Rock. love it

[candido1986]

this cover sucks

[emrys84]

Sounds like Bowie! 

[SandInGlove]

121 people aren't sexy.  :P

[Load1Bongs1Not1Guns]

what the fuck mang

[wertygol]

It's like was made by Iggy Pop. Liked a lot!!

[TheKillaLord]

(no coments)...

[she0who0reads013]

umm...........

[littleboynoize]

This is the worst cover i've heard since Sandra Burke did 'Hallelujah' and where did the Blur influence come from....Absolute pants !!!!!!!!

[Alicejustmetidy]

@littleboynoize alexandra? but true this is shocking :S

[arpegius78]

It looks like David Bowie in the 70"s. Too bad the singer sings too low (or maybe the guitar is too high when he's singing), cause we can't hear anything about the lyrics.

[krisbarber]

cringe



[cowboykenny21]

bloody awful!

[AyeAyes]

I like both bands, but when combined, it's just...off. :/

[79beetlebum]

original by Air is so much better

[sirkevin1967]

WHY ?

[TravelJay1982]

NASTY!

[Danielita90]

This is so gay ahahahahahahahahahahha

[ShaKa2290]

only reading the comments i realized he is speaking french...O.O

[hex37]

*facepalm*

[DramaticaXIV2]

Got nice instrumental but the vocals... no.

[AidanJeans]

People don't understand the artistry behind this cover. It's fantastic!

[Danielita90]

@AidanJeans Oh my god you're an alien ! :O

[mvcolacrimosa]

suck

trash version

[MeneerPindakaas]

I like the original version, and I really like FF. Maybe it would have been better if it was recorded properly. This isn't really what I expected...

[BankaiSweden]

This is one of thoese songs you really shouldnt even try to cover, the original achived perfection! ...this? sounds like a homless man seduceing children at a busstop

[PandaBoo92]

@BankaiSweden that made me lol XD

[iphonerose]

@BankaiSweden the fallen angels did a great job of covering it tho

[smooterus]

@BankaiSweden lol yes! lol

[myprettypie]

@BankaiSweden or a manky pervy guy in a pub that just won't take a hint and go away

[rockandroller007]

@BankaiSweden no way , this cover is really well made !!!!!!

[arielgirl]

@BankaiSweden Oooh is he a sexy homeless man?

[Outlander999]

@BankaiSweden I think that if u have a good idea for covering a song, u can do it.

This version id very strange... very different from the original.

I like it.

[evelyneverettgreen]

@BankaiSweden your comments say more about your strange imaginings than about the piece of music...

[cyberdevilgirl]

noooo!! it sounds like this guys were in a weird trip or way too drunk!!!

[cyberdevilgirl]

jajaja!!! poor guys....it sounds like the're drunk!!! jajaja

[gigatron2008]

Baaad Baaaaaad Sexy Boy! You ruined it. Fags.

[Saturn1885]

my ears are not supposed to be bleeding!!!!

[nanatsu7]

I feel my ears are being raped :|

sorryyy D:

[coolavione7]

sensational cover.

[Kholdstarezero]

I'm sorry did they just try to play a great Synth line on electric guitar and replace the breathy vocals with rough unsexy vocals? Fuck Franz Ferdinand.

[AliceStar29BABV]

EPICC FAILL... sorry ):

[radioheadicta]

fail!

[melodieDeLaVie]

..not a bad cover at all!

[foxybox11]

this is great, but very gay. being gay, thats ok for me, but i imagine other people might have hangups.

[anteroXBash]

not bad in fact i like it

[santiagozombie]

this is NOT sexy at all ! u_u

[deathbloody4u2]

Good cover!!!!

[MrTomthom21]

is somethin different!!!!just fine....air vers much better!!!

[pabloww]

what a way to ruin a beautiful song...

[UntrueLove]

i love franz ferdinand, but i just didn't enjoy this at all! D:

[jamadeybigtits]

urgh this isnt good at all, air's version trumps

[itsonlyamy]

I love it!

its much more edgy and sexy compared to the air version.

[Oceanmachine27]

I like it! It's like the original version took on human form and learned how to smoke and beat people up.

[platovaya]

It sounds like a pub band of drunks made it and that makes it so charming :D

[flashdesunamic]

Hmmm... no lo sé... creo que le faltan las voces xDDD de hecho es lo que hacen especiales a sus canciones n___n

[Kezzypie]

I love you Franz Ferdinand, but if this happens again I may well have to disown you.

Please tell me you agree?

[PineTreeAndCone]

apparently they were really pissed when they did this.. i'll let them off for that..

[legimenes]

I think the purpose of the song is to expose something sexy in a disordered and fuzzy way. Of course they can do more upright and well constructed stuff, but its really a nice song if you get this concept.

[astr51]

started well but seroiusly, no

[OnlyYouForMe81]

i m a sexy boy so i like the song

[garryzak]

Somebody call Taggart theres been a murder!!

What a shocker!!

[cjdakahank]

I've never liked franz. this is shit-tacular

[mrbike69]

Love the original. This version is a bit shitty

[damusxxv]

wow bellissima

[skinnyxranger]

I love the music but that's all. : )

[pgolovat]

This is awesome.

[fixzy115]

they had potential only if they cleand up the tone and made it smoother

[rockandroller007]

@fixzy115 it's good as it, or it would be Air itself, and this is FRANZ FERDINAND !!!!

[bassmansimo]

this is a fucking mess

[SERINTHETUBE]

Decent Cover.

[bluebelleXx]

i actually really like this

[lifelossleaving]

The "woo"-ing really detracts from what could have been a decent cover.

i prefer the original but a nice effort from ff.

[franckmagnus]

zero , bullshit...like Franz Ferdinand.

[rellin1234]

This was awesome!!!!! Grungin it up a bit! Both songs are AWESOME!!!!! Awesome it up!!!! Sexy Boy WOO

[djkenny]

think about destruction, speak about destruction of Air's Sexy Boy!

[HotsumaSan]

Yeah not that great. I'm disappointed.

[ZLUGGO]

There was a certain club in Thailand...

[scoundr3l]

What does FF have against Air? Lol

[Lelem2]

Well.. I don't think it's totally HORRIBLE.

It's enjoyable.

[inconceivabledark]

nah, not good.

[sebastiangaspar]

I love franz ferdinand but, let's be honest, they distroyed a great song

[RandomRawrs]

At first I agreed with all of you, it was SOOOO awful. But then it grew on me, and now it's jsut so bad that it's good.

[shallowbay91]

... what... WHAT?!

But but but I like Franz Ferdinand! and Air's Sexy Boy! So why is this cover so horrendous?! This sucks so bad! What the hell happened? D:

[poptasticphenomenon]

This is wrong!

[KoldMannDamm]

This is not good and I'll leave it at that.

[ozner25]

I love Franz . but they made a mistake this time.

[subtilstudio]

mais tagueule bouffon !

[sophiella241]

que cover mas chanta que orrible suena que hazco de cover chanta

[RebirthWoWGuild]

u actually like this song, if you listen to the original by air you can see what franz fer did here, i really like this version ive listened to it about 60 times today

[rastashlomo]

doesn't really have any of the charm of the original, isn't even as good as their general material

[kundzsa]

This sucks big time! I mean nothing, absolutelíy nothing happens in this song. The same repeating riff from beginning to end, some indie cliché woohoo, and thats it. Oh, some week distortion in the end, to keep up the cool guy impression.

[lmen1990]

I like it better than the original.

[dogatron]

the drums sound like absolute donkey balls

[Queerful]

neee me late más con Air

[aranwood]

I disagree. I think it's a good interpretation of a great song. It opens up a way for pub-level covers bands to perform the tune.

[Jevgenji]

This makes me :(

[gogolplex74]

I love you FF, but sorry now you failed

[AdoreChocolate]

Ruined it. :)

[JulisTheOneAndOnly]

wtf

[Esmeeschenck]

this is more rock and roll

the original one more sensual

[SoupofCat]

bleah

[pitas44]

Sucks edition ;)

[gogolplex74]

drunk?

[Divljina89]

The thing is that the original song is PERFECT by itself. No need to touch anything. This cover is crappy, the beginning reminded me of Black Sabbath a little :-)

[CraftyNightStalker]

don't sound so good :(

[earthling10]

They used to be good. Now you need to be drunk to have any appreciation/tollerance for their spectacles

[pediscazzi]

cagata pazzesca

[ArkadianDream]

ma che schifoooooooooooo! it kills the original! Shut up you fuckin' idiot!

[xxxdarkmexxx]

sucks!!

[stramurto]

I fuckin' hate this band of faggots.

Moon Safari is an untouchable masterpiece, I hope no one will ever cover again a track from that album.

[Maulwurfpilot]

Fuck Franz Ferdinand!!!

sounds terrible.

[bider01]

its alrite but the air version is serious

[Sefirosukuraodo]

All I can think of when I hear this is Frank-N-Furter singing in french (0_o)

[Owlhousespecial]

original = the best though ... sorry franny boyzzzzz

[MusicAddict1030]

i like this onee. :D

[timegirl95]

I think it's pretty good. I've never heard the original, though.

[lifelossleaving]

@timegirl95 you've missed out! listen to it immediately, it's brilliant. (:

[Murkrust]

meh podria haber sido mejor

[feelgoodchinchilla]

wow this sounds incredibly homo next to the air version. or not even next to the air version its super homo.

air version = super tight

this version = super gay

[andiielolliipop]

sucks, esta version, la neta son de estas versiones, que no pueden superar a la rola original, pues la rola original es una pieza maestra, asi que no ma...

[cmapunk]

sounds funny, very good try, i don't write which one is tha best, right??

[AidanJeans]

GREAT!!! SO GREAT!!!

[DancingPuppets]

yayyyy franz ferdinand likes air<333

[kaligula11]

This is a good song but this version isn't worth listening to it again. Unlike the original which is a masterpiece.

[scottishjen1988]

I think it's pretty decent, myself.

[Aiazka]

Grauenhaft.

Nichts ist besser als das Original.

[noemylovely]

uhhhhh
