Franz Ferdinand’s latest album ‘Always Ascending’ is out now on Domino Record Co. Listen & Buy here: smarturl.it/AlwaysAscending More from Franz Ferdinand on KZfaq: smarturl.it/BestOfFranzFerdinand

54 years later, this song is still canon.

It's actually amazing how well this song aged. Great choice for 2077

It's amazing how a song from 2004 fits so well as the opening of a futuristic series.

Not a bad pick for an opening song. This is fire, no pun intended.

2077, and this songs still works for me 💙

Remember my grand dad blasting this back in the 50s in his car, drivin' through Pacifica like we had the eddies to move out of H4 and Santo Domingo and live by the coast. Good times!

Only amateurs skipped this absolute BANGER of an intro

From 1914 to 2077, 163 years of good music

*spoilers* It's actually weird how well this song suits 2077. David is a perfect example of "a candle that burns twice as bright burns half as long" not to mention how his driving passion is what gets him as far as it did but loss of control is what led to his downfall, "I'll burn this city down" nice song pick.

FF is a criminally underrated band: all of their albums are great (it's hard to even pick a favourite one), they keep experimenting with their sound without ever getting boring, they're smart and seem like nice people, - why they aren't the best known British rockband today is beyond me. Been listening to them for the last 11 years and will keep doing so, anyway! Long live, the archbishops ;)

lyric／歌詞（和訳） Eyes boring a way through me 眼差しが、僕を真っすぐ貫く Eyes, destroying so sweetly 圧倒的で、あまりにも甘美な破壊 Now there is a fire in me 今、僕の心に火が点く A fire that burns 燃え盛る炎が This fire is out of control I’m going to burn this city, burn this city If this fire is out of control I’m going to burn this city, burn this city この炎が制御不能なら この街を燃やしてやろう、街を燃やそう This fire is out of control この炎は制御不能 This fire is out of control This fire is out of control and I burn Eyes burning the way through me 眼差しが、僕を焼き払う Paralyse, controlling completely 抵抗不可能、完璧な支配 Now there is a fire in me 今、僕の心に火が点いた A fire that burns 燃え盛る炎が This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control Then I'm, I'm out of control and I burn Oh, how I burn for you あぁ、どんな風に燃やそうか Burn, oh, how I burn for you 燃やせ、あぁ、君の為に、どんな風に燃やそうか Burn, how I burn 燃やせ、どんな風に燃やそうか How I burn, oh, how I どんな風に This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We’re going to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We’re going to burn it, I’ll burn it, I, I, I’ll burn it down 僕らで燃やそう、僕が燃やそう、僕が、僕が、僕が燃やし尽くす

I miss this era of rock- Franz, Strokes, White Stripes, Interpol, QotSA etc etc... glad to see there are some new groups like Black Midi keeping it alive and still innovating. Also glad Japanese people still have love for jangly guitar music.

Its insane how such an old song is extremely fitting for an futuristic serie.

"This FFFire" literally means "This Franz Ferdinand Fire"

What a mesmerizing music video. It must've taken so much time, effort and just pure editing skill. Damn. Thank you, Cyberpunk Edgerunners, for using this amazing song.

As a stupid youth I totally believed they made the song for the show. Seeing it’s actually over a decade old has me shook

Remember discovering this band back in the 2000's when a frined recommended them to me. I was still in grade/middle school. Still one of my favorite bands. Seeing them in EdgeRunners was so cool!

damn this band is amazing. More people should be listening to this good stuff

「カップヌードル ねぎ塩」のCMでひと耳惚れしてしまった

Alex looks ridiculously handsome in this video

サイバーパンクというアニメで初めてこの歌を知りました。めっちゃハマったかっこいいね

Мне так нравятся некоторые надписи на фоне. Типа: "Поуеуный пирог" на 0:42 и "Пиво футбол " на 0:44

What a nice song to listen to. I hope nothing bad happens to my spine

I'm happy that they used this song for the OP of Cyberpunk Edgerunners.

Edgerunners reminding me how damn good-good Franz is.

Guys! This band and their songs deserves a lot of respect and love! Cyberpunk Edgerunners opening song is awesome!

Eyes boring a way through me Paralyse, controlling completely Now there is a fire in me A fire that burns This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We're gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We're gonna to burn it, I'll burn it, I, I, I'll burn it down Eyes burning the way through me Overwhelm, destroying so sweetly Now there is a fire within me A fire that burns This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We're gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control Then I'm, I'm out of control and I burn Oh, how I burn for you Burn, oh, how I burn for you Burn, how I burn How I burn, oh, how I This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control I'm gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We're gonna to burn this city, burn this city This fire is out of control We're gonna to burn it, I'll burn it, I, I, I'll burn it down

Best Scottish indie rock band with a Z in their name ever.

I will definitely listen to this 54 years from now

Everytime I hear this song and Alex says “Oh how I burn for you” I die a lil inside

This is the second time a Franz Ferdinand show was in an anime, Paradise Kiss ED being the first

Im so glad this song got more recognition ever since it got used in that edgerunner animation ❤

So much pop and constructivist influences going on here.

Love this song, it’s amazing and very fun to listen to

I'm gonna come back to these comments in a few months, let's see how many ppl are goin to discorver this gem because of Cyberpunk Edgerunners

このオープニングで一気にサイバーパンク2077の世界に引き込まれました！名オープニングテーマ！！

Never forgot how good these guys are, just pleasantly reminded 😍

When someone pointed out the fact that the op just cuts the "burn this city" part... god, I really appreaciate the thought that went behind the show

I love how busy this video is, yet not confusing, as it's full of patterns and rhythmical edits.

My crush on Alex is out of control for the last 13 years

If I haven't watch cyberpunk edgerunner, then I wouldn't have meet this band. Their band is underrated af

2:17 That part duing David's tortured run in opening is forever sealed in my head

This song aged so well that when i first heard it i thought this was specially made for the Edgerunners

Their clips are fecking great

Me emocione cuando vi que escogieron esta cancion para el op de la serie de cyberpunk, llevo escuchandolos 10 años y espero que mas gente los escuche y se enamore de su musica tambien

Found this song when I was a kid by my dad playing it in the kitchen on the rare occasions he cooks. Im glad he put me on Franz Ferdinand.

I'm really glad that Edgerunners has helped draw in new listeners. Saw them Live a few years back and have been listening since I was a kid, so the resurgence in popularity is pretty cool.

this has such a nostalgia hit on me growing up with Burnout 3: Takedown, listening to this during the GP events on a long highway section.. such great times back on the ps2 slim, i swear

Damn, he looks very very attractive!

"Yo bro! Skip the intro!" "No. Not this one, never this fuckin' one."

can't wait to actually listen to this in 2077 I should live til then, although I'll probably be old as fuck yeah, 68. I will probably be dead by then, but if I'm not, I'll sure as hell be jammin to this.

サイバーパンク　エッジランナーズから...

This song is literally fire

I remember seeing the music video to this around my middle school days and now it's the OP song for one of the best anime ever made, nicee

Waiting for the Cyberpunk Edgerunners community :)

なんとまあ私の大好きだった「８０年代のＭＴＶ」！！ カッコ良い！楽しい！ 違っていたらごめんなさい。

Ahh, when this song came on it meant NPC death and destruction in Burnout 3. This song made those slow-mo moments when causing mayhem outstanding

Song is just so intoxicating. Thank you Thomas for getting me into this band even more. Love you, brother.

You fell over the edge, Punk.

Surprised I heard this in Cyberpunk, haven't heard this since I played burnout 3 on the ps2 ages ago

Welcome to all the new fans of Franz Ferdinad that Cyberpunk Edgerunners will bring. We welcome you with open arms. May i suggest: -Fresh Strawberries -Do you want to -Get out -Ulysses -Wine in the afternoon - Take me out. So you can take a feel on the band. Also FFS which is a Sparks Collaboration. Check out Johnny Delusional.

Really gotta give credit to the guy who picked this song for the opening It suits the story so quite well It's like the song was tailor made for the anime

ainda adoro este estilo musical

Listened to this and now suddenly I'm a teenage outlaw with no worries on my mind.

Were breaking through arasaka ice with this one chooms🗣️🗣️🗣️

66 years later its the best op song (in my opinion)

Wow am I the only person who likes this version so much better than the one on the album? I'm not sure what it is about it, but it just sounds more awesome to me.

an absolute banger

I didn’t even know this was an actual song instead of being made for Edgerunners. Pretty cool to see where it originated 😅

2019, and this songs still works for me 💙

Essa música é incrível

I love the castaway getting hypnotized by the message in a bottle. It shows how nobody is safe anywhere.

"So how much green screen do you want?" "Yes."

MVくっそかっこいい

How is it that this song was made nearly 20 years before Edgerunners even came out, yet it fits so well?

People used to come here because they played Burnout 3. Now they come because they watched Cyberpunk Edgerunners. As someone who enjoyed both, this is nice to see

Cyberpunk Edgerunners 'w'

This is a Tribute for David Martinez Choom

this song speaks to me on a different level than other songs ive heard

This is truly fire 🔥

And here i am after watching all episodes of cyberpunk edgerunners what an masterpiece

Если я и Ютуб доживут до 76 года, то обязательно включу эту песню, чтобы снова ее услышать!✊

Thanks for the HD ...I love FF

Legend

No wonder the song was chosen for Edgerunners. Both the intro to that and MV have the same amazing vibe

Ok yes they used this for the Edgerunners opening. But I knew I've heard this song somewhere else before and then it hit me. It was also in Burnout 3 Takedown. Damn this nostalgia it gives me. I played this game so much in my childhood.

This goes so hard, perfect opening

A song from 2004 fits a universe set in 2076 so well

25% Franz Ferdinand fans 25% alternative rock fans 25% Burnout fans 25% Cyberpunk Edgerunners fans 🧐🧐🧐

This song suits so good for an anime opening, I think...

all these people trying to not look like they're talking about edgerunners by just saying "2077" or "aged well" or "blank years later" or just "opening song"

My hearing is on fire !

I can't stop replaying this song!

That's a great one. Thank you Edgerunners

its cooool song!

Awesome songawesome year 2004.

The irony that they pick a twelve year old song, to opening for a series, which idolises singers of ages long since past is an incredible choice

Очень крутой видеоряд , и сам клип классный , отличная работа .👍

that was so just
