Is there anything better than that feeling you get when you find really good new music completely by accident? Franz Ferdinand. Purchase. Listen. Enjoy.

If you're like me, and you like to know exactly what it is you're buying, you can listen to some of the tracks on Amazon's listing of the album.

Every time I hear Franz Ferdinand on the radio, I crank it up loud enough that people driving next to me on the freeway with the windows down notice. There should be a Franz Ferdinand tribute band playing on every corner.

If you're like me... You just download the whole CD for free because its perfectly legal and doesn't rip off the artists at all.

Where is this legal?

I think if you like the artist/music - buy the album, I download albums simply to get a feel for them, I play them say six or seven times through and if i don't like it by then I'm simply not going to. So I press the 'Del' key. I think MP3s are a great way to sample albums.

Interesting... We apparently have different definitions of "legal", and "rip off". Please, enlighten me as to where you got your definitions from?

Oh, and I'm not saying you shouldn't download musiou aecause that would be quite hypocritical. I just want to know how you came to those conclusions.

Wow. The editor chewed up that sentence. Consider the second paragraph to be:

"Oh, and I'm not saying you shouldn't download music because that would be quite hypocritical. I just want to know how you came to those conclusions."

Everywhere... the RIAA is just being an ass, but really it is very legal to download the music for free. Watch this

There's really nothing better than ...
really good
new
...
that's for sure. _really good_, I really don't know after those snippets at amazon (Jacqueline sounds promising provided You weren't in the 70ies). _new_, well, been' there, done that. From what I heared these guys rehearse what was already a rehearsal back in the day. Feel like 70ies, try DEVO, You might get to know why we had to get it over with before the 80ies even arrived.
Hey, "Tank Girl" (the Comic) was a _joke_, not to be acted upon in seriousness.
Those 70ies sucked, big time and don't let anyone tell You differently.
F.F. rated "Indie", gosh prolly, I did _indie_, You better not tell John Peel 'bout that rating...
anyways, music is for fun, have fun.
o.k., I promise, I'll return to lurking from now on...

Do You _know_ 'Steal This Book'?
Do You _like_ creampies from Rolo Kingfish??
Does 'PC' raise Your middle finger???
Did Your great-grand Step-Father get BURNED for being true 'though not legal????
No, tough shit, mine did.
Want a date with Thyssen-Krupp or IG-Farben?
It's never too late, mate

I like the way they merged the scenes even though there were some technical difficulties. And the improv was also outstanding it wasn't as boring as I thought it was great. who was that crazy guy that was talking about colonosamies, he was cool man do some more video. and the music selection made the home movie feel professional. but what was up with the dancing. any way I don't think anyone is going to sue you. and loren won't have to do any sexual favors.
