Dont know if anyone has noticed this but i was listening to it the other day.

Eleanor put your boots back on - Franz Ferdinand.

"Eleanor put those boots back on
Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
I know it isn't dignified to run
But if you run you can run to the Coney Island roller coaster
Ride to the highest points
And leap across the filthy water
Leap until the gulf streams brought you down"

I know its not really very important, just thought some of you might want to know.

Thanks anyway.  A lot of people make certain references to things.  For instance, director Spike Lee, grew up in Brooklyn, so when he did his movie Inside Man, which takes place in Manhattan, the movie opens up with a quick scene of Coney Island.

Its just a bit wierd i think as Franz Ferdinand are a scottish band.
Maybe they had a really nice holiday there!

I guess they just wanted a really random place...it's not Coney Island in all of the choruses,i think?  :-k
