Full Disclosure: this may or may not help you sleep at night.

Since we are all already familiar with Franz Ferdinand (the Scottish band, not the former Archduke of Austria that had something or other to do with World War I), I won't go into a lenghty declamation regarding their musical prowess.

I will however, go into a brief oratory regarding a song from their latest album "Tonight: Franz Ferdinand." The album, along with the bonus disc "Blood," remind me of what first attracted me to Franz Ferdinand in the first place: strong guitar work, coupled with strong lyrics. "Tonight: Franz Ferdinand," delivers on both counts, with my personal favorite example being "Lucid Dreams."

This is the album version, which is about twenty times better than the "single" version released on iTunes and included Madden NFL 09 soundtrack. However, as my usual caveat goes, this is not the "official" video (if one exists). This is the classic youtube gimmick where you play the song and set it to static images of the band. Enjoy!
