I just love the diversity of sounds in the 2000s and prior. Everything is distinct and unique. It was a great time to be young.

They played this on MTV-U every 23 minutes

I wonder what we lost , hmmm

Some idiot on Bluesky classified them as 'dad rock' and I nearly blacked out 😭😭😭

Fun fact: Alex Kapranos, lead singer, became a food columnist for G2 around 2005. He wrote about the food that the band ate whilst touring the world. This just makes me laugh.

Bush era music was so good wtf happened

Yeah, it was shit.

This and PDA by Interpol birthed one of the coolest aesthetics for music videos we have ever seen and we haven’t peaked creatively since

Its sad that the first part of the song is the only good part and then it transistions into pure shit lol

Bro remember when MTV used to play songs to video games? 2004-6ish? They used this song for a Star Wars themed Nazi rally with Anakin Skywalker and it was phenomenal.

2004 was this, Float On, or anything by Lil Jon. So, so much Lil Jon. You got some Killers toward the end of the year, too.

Someone once told me I seemed like someone who would be a fan of Franz Ferdinand and I took it as an insult.

Crazy 2004 is now like the new 80’s as when we were nostalgic during the Myspace days

I WAS there cause I was 23 and WORKED in the music industry! 2004 gave us some FANTASTIC albums like......... Louis XIV - Best Little Secrets !!! - Louden Up Now Death From Above 1979 - Im A Woman, Youre A Machine Interpol - Antics Radio4 - Stealing a Nation

Heard this at a baseball game last weekend and still always such a fucking jam!! 🤘I kept that album on repeat in my car back then.

This hit so hard. It's still in my regular rotation every week.

The beginning of take me out for me is pure gold it’s electric and it made me fall in love with the song

loved watching this vid in the morning before school on vh1 + mtv 😊

got to drive around blasting this on my mp3 player using a cassette to AUX adapter.

First time I heard this song was for a PSP commercial

I was there Gandalf. Love Franz Ferdinand! But I never actually managed to catch them live at the time.

me listening to this song

When this song came out, Never gonna give you up was newer than this song is today.

I was 9 during this time, this isn't a song to me, it's like water, like sound, it simply is. Truly iconic.

@imnotseagull91 lembranças

Excellent video. 🔥

Hated this song, still do

It just sounds like Hollister. Yk?

I’m still here

It was an interesting time to be in your mid-20’s for sure

And in 2000...
