  • Can I have him, please? xD

  • Tennant is hotter than Bellamy... OH YES!

  • David's totally using the same guitar that Matt Bellamy uses in the Supermassive Black Hole music vid.

  • I've been watching this for two years for obvious reasons *cough* David Tennant *cough* And now I'm starting to doubt if David was actually playing.. OH WELL YOU'RE STILL AASDHFGDSGYUW GORGEOUS!

  • I could easily have mistaken David Tennant for Matt Bellamy for a moment.

  • THIS IS SOOOO AWESOME I MIGHT DIE!!!! FRANZ FERDINAND AAANNNDDD DAVID TENNANT?!?!!!! *Starts to hyperventilate and faints from too much awesome*

  • oh god david IS matt bellamy xD

  • The more you think about it, the more Alex and David are actually quite alike. Loving Davids stage energy haha (:

  • Stupid Top of the Pops. They for decades have made everybody perform synch. I mean live vocals are cool and is definitely a step up, but come on, these guys have proven themselves time and time again they can do all their stuff live without a hitch. Fuckers.

  • It was THIS video and this video alone that got me into Franz Ferdinand. The first time I watched this, I was here for David Tennant. Now Im watching it again for both David AND Alex. ♥

  • the archduke

  • So can David Tennant really play guitar or was it all just show?

  • Franz looks like Micheal ian black, seriously, look him up if u dont know who he is

  • now really how many people can pull of a full white tux with red shoes and tie?

  • DT guitar.... O.O

  • DT is a show-off! lol Still love him tho' ;-)

  • Comment removed

  • PWOPAH, FABULOUS, AND JUST PLAIN FUCKING EPIC <3

  • Also, is it me or did the bit where David tells Reggie Yates not to sing 'Doctor Who' really reminiscent of the start of the Season 2 episode 'Tooth and Claw' where he tells Rose not to speak in a Scottish accent :)

  • David Tennant really should guest with Muse sometime and, on that note, when TOTP asked Franz to lip sync this, maybe they should've done what Muse do and either swap instruments or just go mental and bundle at the end of the performance XD

  • i love that everyone cheers when DT comes out!

  • HAHAHAHA DOCTOR WHO IS A BADASS

  • sometimes. when i think someone i love is making an idiot of themselves, i purposely skip it so not to embarrass them more. i feel bad then if i watch them making a dick of themselves

  • david tennant, noel fielding AND Franz ferdinand? Too good to be true!

  • wait.. are all of FF's live shows always been the instruments not live? like they have it prerecorded from the cd? wtf..

  • @mariah992 No. Their live shows are always 100% live. When you see them live, it's pretty obvious they're actually playing. This television thing is an exception. Top of the Pops is notorious for making bands do it.

  • @mariah992 what kind of question was that????????...

  • HOLY CRAP.

    That's a cool venue.

  • I loved David Tennant when performing with one of my favourite bands of all time. David is Scottish and the leader of Franz Ferdinand is Scottish as well as fit - Alex Kapranos!! They are both good looking! Love both of them!

  • Love the red shoes!

  • WOW IT'S RICMOND!!!!

  • David Tennant and Alex Kapranos on the same stage = SKINNY SCOTTISH GUY SEX GOD OVERLOOOOAAADDD!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH I love them both so much!

  • David Tennant combined with No You Girls...yep, all is right in the world. Thanks so much for posting!

  • I was sad. And then I saw this. And I came.

  • Fucking scots x

  • I <3 David Tennant's white tux <3 <3 <3 and i love him too!

  • sidenote: You've gotta love how David seems to dress expressly to provoke the response of "Wow. That's quite the outfit."

  • Awww Alex looks so happy ;D hahahah and DAVID. IS JUST BEAUTIFUL.

  • I'm in love with Noel fielding and Oasis are my fave band so fantastic combo :)

  • hahaha aww Bobbieh <3

  • daskfjskfl;jds AWESOME

  • OMG FRANZ FERDINAND OMG DAVID TENNANT = <3 kisses from France !

  • FIELDING :DDDDDDDD i love Noel and FF they are genius.

  • OMG BOB! Soo cute =)

  • i love vomit

  • Yeah, Franz Ferdinand wanted backstage passes? Wouldn't being dead hinder that?

  • vince noir!

  • Is the Doctor interfering with events? ;)

  • Gotta love Bob with the rednose! :D

  • More:

    16. DT's guitar skillz.

    23. David looking rather happy.

    24. David saying "woohoo" in a really high-pitched and adorable voice.

  • Reasons I love this: 1. Leo Jones (ok...Reggie Yates) 2. Noel Fielding. 3. Franz Ferdinand. 4. Fantastic song. 5. Bob with a Red Nose 6. Alex looking sexy (as per) 7. Alex winking at the camera 8. Smiley Alex. 9. Smiley Nick. 10. Nick waggling a finger at the crowd while singing. 11. Dawn French and Jennifer Saunders in the crowd. 12. Paul looking pretty at the back. 13. UNEXPECTED DANCING DAVID! 14. David Tennant making a complete arse out of himself but no-one caring. 15. DT's outfit.
  • I actually mean this in the nicest way, not being mean at all. I love what a geek DT is. I love it sooo much! It is so endearing and cute!

  • lol nice nose bob :)

  • That is the sole reason why this is one of my favorite songs. And have you noticed in almost all of the doctor who clip shows out there featuring David Tennant play this song at one point? Also, I love the way theyre all deadly serious and hes just dancing about and they completely ignore him lol!!

  • when i watched this on comic relief night.....the thing that first popped into my head when david came on stage was..."WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­A!!!!!! oh my god!!!oh my god!!! oh my god!!! what the helll......it was like a bomb just went off in my head lol it was soo funny, cool and just plain "yep something had to happen" kind of thing

  • watching this makes me so proud to be Scottish :D haha

  • david tennant would suit franz ferdinan.

    briiliant band!

  • David Tennant REALLY reminds me of Matt Bellamy in this xD

  • ME TOO

  • :D I think it's his wonderful dance moves

  • Agreed- it might be the suit, swaggering and high kick- that's pretty much what Matt goes for- still to combine the two is awesome- best actor and musician in the land :)

  • He's far too tall :')

    But yeah, I get what you mean, they both completely go for it ^_^

  • I so agree!

  • @mnopabyqubopaby I like both DT and Matt B :)

  • @mnopabyqubopaby he is totally like Matt Bellamy and maybe a bit like Jarvis Cocker as well! love the outfit ;)

  • That's a damn lie at the first.

  • This lot make me want to be Scottish. SO MUCH. (I know two of them are English. Shush :P) But seriously, David and Alex give Scottish guys such a good name xD

  • 2:22-2:26 Haha, I think some of the girls did something to make Alex and Nick laugh x)

  • They are so amazing live.

  • Comment removed

  • i've seen them live and its rare to listen to a band which can sound the same live as in their albums..skillzzz

  • @omegzilla1 Muse is a band like that ♥

  • This > Oxygen.

  • It!s Ritchmond isn't it?xD

  • 3:24 they show bob for a second; and it looks like he whering a clown nose!!(pardon my crapy spelling)

  • he is :)

  • lmao, it was for Red Nose Day ;)

  • omg this is the best thing ever!!!

  • it sure is baby!

  • This sounds so cool live!

  • David Tennant is so cool, he is my hero.

  • I love it at 2 minutes, Alex starts smiling and really getting into it. =D I bet he started cracking up when he got off stage cos of DT. LOL

  • i love david tennant and he so improved for me after he played the guitar omg he is nuts and awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • franz & doctor, can it get better than that, i do no think so. I remember watching this but no recollection of Tennant "playing" the guitar, weirdly.

  • Phew, those red shoes on the end of them legs :D

  • What does Bob have on his nose?

  • Its a red nose :)

    Charity thingie.

  • Seems everyone love's Alex ha thats good for me then cos I love Noel fielding, he melts me.

  • I love all of them :D

  • you girls will never know how you make a boy feel <3

    i love this band so much

    alex melts me

  • I don't think I'd like this song if David Tennant didn't appear on this performance. :D

  • thats the sexiest thing ive ever seen (david+alex+nick+bob):D

  • totally hot i love them

  • alex is so sexy

  • This is an awesome performance(:

    loved it ♥

  • The singing is live, the instruments are not.

  • He is not lip syncing, you can tell he is singing live. He sounds different on the album.

  • What an outfit Tennant is wearing! Is he actually playing that thing or not?

  • @ravingcelt: don't think so

  • il the song

  • funky

  • lol What the hell is on Bob's nose?

    And hooray for Noel Fielding!

  • Looks like a red ball

  • its a red nose in support of red nose day

  • it's for red nose day.....he has a red nose (like a clown nose).

  • Playback. At 1:38-1:39 Nick strums several times without audible. TOTP has always been pre-recorded anyway, right?

  • I love this song

  • this is a good song but is it diffrent from the original song

  • lang haired host guy. Did he act at "The IT Crowd"?

  • Noel Fielding; yes. He was Richmond. He's also in The Mighty Boosh.

  • @cihancil Yes. He played the guy who lived in the cupboard. His name is Noel Fielding :P

  • The guitar is live, they sounded that way when they played Jimmy Kimmel Live. That's right, FF are just that badass.

  • search equinox - change :)

  • I love this song almost as much as I love David! LOL!

  • you gotta love the scots

  • FANTASTIC song :)

  • Lmao :D

    He's the greatest. I'll kiss him where my eye won't meet him.

  • David and Noel <3

  • Oh my God I love Them!!!!

  • i prefer this song live to the recording song! LOL

  • noel fielding! and franz ferdinan !

  • top of the pops isnt live right? i think the only thing live is their voices. frankly ive never heard them play this well.

  • one of the best songs I've heard in a while :)

    Franz Ferdinand sounds quite good Live actually, a lot better than a lot of other singers and bands

  • David&Reggie <3 (Y)

  • dude at the start got the song name wrong

  • This song is so bloody catchy! I've had it stuck in my head since I saw this was on TV now I'm obsessed with it. Just about to order it now. Love David here :) So cool. X

  • I love him, but is he really playing?

  • David Tennant and Franz Ferdinand on the same stage absolutely blows my mind! Oh man, those boys will never know how they make this girl feel right now ;D

  • fefefefef

  • franz ferdinand is the sexiest band ever + DT- sexiest man ever on the same stage, i died when i saw this! slightly embarrassing as my parents were in the room :P

  • lol :)

  • same here! i was there like "omg noel fielding! ... ... omg franz ferdinand! ... ... omg david tennant! aaaah! :D :D :D" haha

  • DT was on radio one earlier and he said he had lifelong dreams to be on TOTP and to play guitar with Franz Ferdinand, and that he was really playing it. He also said his suit wasn't specially made...so you can buy it from somewhere. He's so funny. I'm going to miss him not being the Doctor.

  • I love this song, & the band too :D

    They're amazing live! :O

  • is the iphone song?

  • the itouch, yes

  • Was David Tennant's guitar actually plugged into an amp?

    Loving this songg, love the end where they change it to "you boys never know, how you make a girl feel".

  • Probably not, TOTP is known for not letting bands play live.

    Plus it is an absolute gash venue.

  • April 17 Indio California Franz will be there and so am I, cant wait to c them! Coachella ....... cheers from Los Angeles to all Franz fanzzzzzz

  • Brilliant!

  • i <3 david :)

  • Alex sings great in this one!... They're coming to the Hove Festival in Norway this summer, and they're the band I'm longing to see live the most (of bands I haven't seen yet).

    slippy little lips might split

    still soubds good just dont like top of the pops

  • It's from Kiss Me Kathrine, the last song on the cd.
