[edit] Sample

The sample is crappy get a new one —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.153.15.68 (talk) 12:34, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Moving music article

The song Take Me Out by the band Franz Ferdinand isn't as notable as the Tony Award-winning play Take Me Out (play), so I'm moving the current article to Take Me Out (song). -- Cleduc 03:41, 6 Mar 2005 (UTC)

That's debatable, but it's no big deal. --Madchester 04:23, 2005 Mar 28 (UTC)

Take Me Out now redirects to Take Me Out (disambiguation). Cleduc 08:20, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
Good move. --69.12.143.197 21:13, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Riff

It is very odd that the riff in thsi song is compared to Ringo Starr and Led Zepellin, but not GANG OF FOUR. Listen to the song "Not For Great Men," off of Gang of Four's 1979 album "Entertainment" and compare the two.

[edit] Similarities to other songs

{ Some critics have also noted similarities with the riff of "Trampled Under Foot" by Led Zeppelin. } Do we have a source, or is this just conjecture? - I've moved it out pending some source.

The interesting thing is that it is possible for them to arrive at the riff quite separately - kind of like two people proving the same mathematical problem independently in similar ways, or concurrently discovering some new chemical process. Therefore, would suggest that unless there are sources for saying 'This sounds like that', we don't refer to them. Ultimately, that's original research, no?

[edit] Kraftwerk sample

There's a guitar part in the song that's based upon the first part of Das Modell by Kraftwerk. At least, I think so. Anyone else agree?

I don't think it's based upon it, but I hear the similarity there. — mæstro t/c, 16:54, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Australian TV reference

Off memory, the song is not the theme of Sports Tonight, but rather Any Given Sunday. However, Sports Tonight used clips from many songs, including sometimes this one. Should this be changed or added? DRS1992 07:54, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A Punk Disco song by the Rolling Stones?

A surprising new genre, especially for the Rolling Stones. Would just a song by the Rolling Stones suffice, or maybe disco influenced? 09:19, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

It's been well documented and it's obvious to casual listeners and musicologists that the album Emotional Rescue has some influence from disco, but "disco punk?" That's a leap, as well as other claims made by this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rapturerocks (talk • contribs) 04:27, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
