"Take Me Out" is a song by Scottish indie rock band Franz Ferdinand. It was released as the second single from their eponymous debut studio album in the United Kingdom on 12 January 2004 and in the United States on 12 April 2004, both through Domino Records. It was released as 7-inch vinyl, a CD single, and a DVD single with the music video and a short interview with the band.

Contents

The single reached number three in the UK Singles Chart. In the United States, it reached number three on the Modern Rock Tracks chart and number 66 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was a number-seven hit on the Canadian Singles Chart and also reached number one on the UK Indie Chart. In November 2004, the single was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America. The song was voted the best single of 2004 by The Village Voice Pazz & Jop poll, and number one on Australian youth radio network Triple J's Hottest 100 of the same year. In July 2009, it was voted number 100 on Triple J's Hottest 100 of All Time. [1]

Background

Franz Ferdinand formed in Glasgow in 2002 and wrote "Take Me Out" the following year. Songwriter Alex Kapranos said the idea for the song's theme came from watching a snipers' duel in Enemy at the Gates and that "it felt like a very good metaphor for the kind of romantic situations that we sometimes find ourselves in". [2]

Composition

"Take Me Out" has been described musically as post-punk revival, [3] [4] indie rock, [5] dance-rock, [6] garage rock, [7] art rock, [8] and post-Britpop. [9] Its first section is fast tempo guitar driven, with notes of a chord separated into individual notes, which was influenced by Giorgio Moroder, [10] followed by a slower second section with disco hi-hat patterns and snare drums.

The call and answer guitar riff and vocal melody were inspired by blues musician Howlin' Wolf. The band attempted different arrangements before settling on a mid-song tempo change. Alex Kapranos said: "The verses sounded better played a little bit faster and the chorus sounded better played a little slower and we could never quite work it out... I had this idea that we’re going to take all of the verses, put them at the beginning of the song, and then we’re going to slow it down and play all the choruses, which is kind of the wrong way to do it." [11]

Recording

The song was recorded at Gula Studion in Malmö, Sweden with producer Tore Johansson. The tempo changes were recorded live in the studio. The sound of the cymbal being caught as soon as it was hit was influenced by rock music such as Queen. Producer Johansson said: "there was no editing other than that we compiled the best take. We didn't do any tricks of doing that on a different take and then doing the rest of the track." Johansson used multiple echo effects to achieve a "marching, machinery, industrial feel... It's very organic, but we wanted it to sound like you're in a big workshop or something." [12]

Music video

The music video for the song was directed by Jonas Odell. It includes the band amid a Dadaist animation involving quirky vintage figures and machinery reminiscent of Terry Gilliam's cartoon segments for Monty Python. The video is a blend of the live-action band superimposed into a 3D environment with animated 2D elements. Frontman Alex Kapranos described the video's influences as Dada, the films of Busby Berkeley, and Soviet propaganda, and praised Odell's direction. Kapranos commented:

Basically it's a pop video and it should entertain you, but not just once – there're certain things you stare at in life that are just fascinating to look at like a fish tank or an open fire, they're actually quite simple things but there's something fascinating about them. And I think pop videos should be like that too. There should be something there that just makes you want to come back and look at it. [13]

Accolades

The song received high critical acclaim upon its release in January 2004. Drowned in Sound called it "a work of sheer clanging wonder". [14] In March 2005, Q magazine placed "Take Me Out" at number 41 on its list of the 100 Greatest Guitar Tracks. In September 2005, the same magazine named it the 34th greatest track ever performed by a British band. Q made another list for its television channel, also named Q, of 100 greatest Indie Anthems, where "Take Me Out" appeared at number six. In May 2007, NME magazine placed "Take Me Out" at number 16 on its list of the 50 Greatest Indie Anthems Ever, whereas MTV2 placed it at number seven on its version of the 50 Greatest Indie Anthems Ever, which was loosely based on NME's list. In October 2011, NME placed it at number 27 on its list of 150 Best Tracks of the Past 15 Years. [15] Pitchfork ranked the song number 44 on its top 500 tracks of the 2000s. [16] Rolling Stone magazine ranked "Take Me Out" number 327 on the 2010 version of its list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". [17]
