“I always love getting a remix back because I’m fascinated by what people do with a song,” Franz frontman Alex Kapranos told the NME. take me out I say you don't know You say you don't go I say. take me out I say you don't show Don't move, time is slow I say. Word to A-Trak.ĭaft Punk tip their space-helmets to Franz Ferdinand with a recently unearther remix of the Scots’ career-making 2004 single “Take Me Out.” The Random Access Memories duo take a relatively light touch with the dance-rock classic - Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homme-Christo add some heft to the original’s clubby stomp and lather on scratchy analog effects, but the robots keep the song’s structure pretty much in tact. You leave me broken, shattered I lie I'm just a cross-hair I'm just a shot, then we can die I know I won't be leavin' here with you I say don't you know You say you don't know I say.

We’re keeping it here so that you can enjoy it, however. Take Me Out (Live) So if youre lonely You know Im here waiting for you Im just a cross-hair Im just a shot away from you And if you leave here You leave. It seems the NME dug up the old reworking and inspired Franz Ferdinand to post it to their SoundCloud, fueling the prevailing thought that it was fresh. The lyrics of the song could also be refrencing the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, where his wife was murdered right before him. Several reputable outlets reported it as new, and many have since taken down their posts. UPDATE: Turns out this seemingly anachronistic remix is, but surprise, actually from 2004.
