Fire Engines - Get Up and Use Me

[IStehSHIT]

josef k stole these guys sound, its exactly the same, you should check them out! If they could have copied this Exclente bads sound so brutaly, then they must be poseres, i hate copy cat, its good we have original bands like this and not only copycats like josef k. are copycats not embarrassing?

[ramacure]

ese ritmo es re loco!!!!!!!!

[ribbonces]

Fun song.

[kbr61263]

excellent. do I remeber corrcetly that the album had a song called dischord?

[4ClosedCity]

this is good, but there is a better version by Fire Engines out there. I have it on tape, but lost my vinyl dammit.

Big Gold Dream is great too.

[qarapalida]

this is best that Franz Ferdinand, though i would go to their gig when they come tho this lands very soon.

[gcccx]

wow

[bgrrrlie]

Didn't even know Franz Ferdinand had covered this gem till I read the comments here. And I don't thing I wanna hear it.....

[analogyouth]

I'm with you hökisfriends!

[GratuitousGorgonzola]

It's pretty much exactly what you'd expect. They play their instruments a little better, but completely lose the soul of the music. It's not a bad tribute, it's just kind of boring....

[mayasonfiyahh]

I like this a looooot!!

[InspectriceGadget]

Of course FF version is better but i like the Fire Engines too :))

[nukiito]

think so too.

i like oldies but this sound is not my style. Franz Ferdinand made it better.

[InspectriceGadget]

yuhu somebody agree with me here! ;)

It is not forbidden to like Fire Engines AND Franz Ferdinand in the same time, guys!!! ;)

[tayleress]

Thanks for putting this here for us!! Love them!

[williegotpwned]

Franz Ferdinand is so horrible, fuck you guys.

[elmersglue16]

fuck you, C:

[4111august]

franz ferdinand version is way better...

[itsindielover]

Hmmm... the franz ferdinand version i think is better

[4111august]

yes it is

[AncientProphecy]

ff fans seem to throw out their opinions like it's going out of style... honestly, people, when you're on a certain band's video page, show a little respect and talk about the actual band performing before making comparisons. i swear you guys don't even listen to this before making your stupid statements.

[LLUDCHI]

Ja! Ja!

[GenLodA]

franz ferdinand cover of this song is good too

[elmersglue16]

yeah, i love it..a tad more than this one.

[scoorieboy]

Outstanding. Everything about this is good.

[Davejimjr]

any 1 got a track they did called golden dream n can upload?

[beatboxrockerN1]

i just heard the franz ferdinand version they ruined it...

[westfieldproductions]

Franz Ferdinand are not fit to tie this band's boot laces.

[TheWrongBoyfriends]

@westfieldproductions

Franz Ferdinand are not fit to tie boot laces

Notice they wear slipons

[iainwish]

Must down this single...Edinburgh had great bands in the early eighties - The Fire Engines, The Visitors and Josef K.....

[bedlamkiss]

I never heard Josef K, but its pretty cool. Thanks for that..

[norakapranosbanks]

I love Franz Ferdinand and have for many years, but over time my musical taste has evolved and I like this one better. The FF version of this song is weak.

[analogyouth]

I did not know the FF version of this tone until now.

FF did a brave thing. sad it's not hard, but even impossible to compete it.

[freshechinacea]

Yeah, their version was good, in my opinion, but nothing can top this.

[analogyouth]

excuse me, I am the worlds biggest fire engines fan. I only can't express myself properly!

ooooooooooh

[rainbowmonochrome]

thanks, now to the business of tracking it down

[filmbuff4]

FF sucks compared to this band. i can't believe some of you people!

[elmersglue16]

hahhahahahhah. i respect your opinion..

so ill tell you mine..ff is the best band

ever,,and i think every cover they make

beats the original.

[Davejimjr]

got any links for a song they did called golden dream? used to be on here but musta been removed

[lucasmaranhao]

great, man! awesome band! i knew them thanks to the franz ferdinand cover back on 2005.

[rainbowmonochrome]

i'm new to the fire engines, can someone tell me what album this is from?

it's brillliant

[ctj1979]

Excellent song, is that the band members in the video.

[bedlamkiss]

I think so. This video was up on the Domino records website when they re-issued Codex Teenage Premonition.

I figured they would probably take it down after they were done promoting the record (which I believe they did) so I took it and put it on the U-tube so it could live on.

[JennKubie]

fire engines can get up and use me. such a fucking good song

[mosesgandi]

well sort of bedamkiss,

i can play a little guitar/key board

[mrjez]

this is genius. franz is not. it's good, but not genius.

[kike0070]

shut up, franz is the best group of the world

[kyukashi]

i agree with you completely kike0070, its hard to listen to the original get up and use me, i seriously wish i hadn't gone to this link

[NorecMcThane]

oh please listen the Frabz ferdinand versiobn is much better

[Scarecrow901]

Who filmed this?

[Yaminaki]

this suck ass XD franz > this deal with it ;D bye

[mosesgandi]

my dad is the bass player and this is the original and its much better (no offense franz ferdinand) :)

[bedlamkiss]

Thats cool. Do you play also?

[likeastoolpigeon]

hey friends its all dancing,if you not dance to beat,your dead.bbbbbbbbbbyuk

[ouetteblankett]

Only some dumb teenager would say the Franz Ferdinand version is better. It's a complete bastardization of the original. Stop letting MTV mediate your tastes.

[joanofmarc]

They were happy enough to support them though, eh?

[sparticusjoe]

Damn. That was hard to watch/listen to. I like Franz Ferdinand's version better.

[sssaponinn]

yes! agree.

[pmc220]

you make me sick

[sparticusjoe]

No, really, I agree. Franz's version was much better.

[bedlamkiss]

the ferdinand version is lacking in raw energy. Plus, it sounds more like a mashup of Fire Engines - dischord than get up and use me.

[irdial]

If you are young and stupid, you like Franz Ferdinand. If you are old and smart, you like the Fire Engines. The Fire Engines are ORIGINAL. Franz Ferdinand are third rate copyists. Everyone with good taste and working ears knows it. I PITY THE FOOLS cursed with groups like Franz Ferdinand as their 'cool ones'. SUCKS to be YOU.

[williegotpwned]

you can also be young and smart like myself and like the fire engines ;)

[InspectriceGadget]

You can also be young and smart like myself and like the Fire Engines + the Franz Ferdinand!!!! ;p

[williegotpwned]

<3 i lub u

[Jacktwo]

haha FAIL

[horseframe]

Brilliant musically, although the video is nothing to treasure.

[maduserid]

i have a 7" and a 12" of use me, they are both better versions of this. classic sounds all the same!
