"Escape Artists Never Die" is the third and last single from Funeral for a Friend's Casually Dressed & Deep in Conversation album. This single marked the first use of the DVD format for the band's singles; second being for the very-sought-after "Monsters" DVD single. It charted at the 19th position on the UK Singles Chart, just like their previous release, "Juneau". The song was originally included on the band's second EP, Four Ways to Scream Your Name and was re-recorded and released as a single for the album before being re-recorded a third time for the EP, Seven Ways to Scream Your Name.
The song comes off heavier than other songs featured on these releases. The chorus for the track is coupled with backing screams by Funeral for a Friend's drummer, Ryan Richards.
Release
The single's B-side "You Want Romance" was first released as a download-only single on 15 January 2004, along with its music video.

Music video
The music video shows two dancers dancing in front of the band performing in a big room. The male dancer is Craig Scott, a dancer and Musical Theatre performer, currently in the West End production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat.[1]
