Alexander Kapranos (frontman/songwriter) about selecting the band’s
greatest hits: “It’s the same as writing a set-list for a festival: you want to play
the songs you know people want to hear. The hits. Bring the hits to the head.
The heart. The feet. That means obvious singles, but also songs you know have
a special meaning for both band and audience like ‘Outsiders’. We also added
two new songs, recorded last year: “Billy Goodbye” and “Curious”.

New single: BILLY GOODBYE
One of the two new songs (probably hits too by the
time the collection comes out) along with all the hits.

Billy Goodbye is a characteristic FF rocket.
Glamourous, uplifting, and instantly addictive.

Here we go…
