Anyone else think the 'I Predict a Riot' bit sounds like 'I've got tourettes'? Just me then *nods*

Well, please sign your posts, and this isn't a discussion forum, BUT I will tell you that I agree. T (Formerly Known as FireSpike) 01:51, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Who wrote the song?

[edit]

Seems odd that there can be so much content without mentioning the songwriter. --Richard Gadsden 22:57, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'dve thought it was pretty self explanitory that it was Kaiser Chiefs.

Why do i think i heard this song years ago, is everyone sure it isnt a cover?--nedk

It definately isn't a cover 81.157.223.236 (talk) 18:11, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Took offence?

[edit]

The interview [1] simply says that one band member thought it was "embarrassing" that they changed the lyrics, for reasons which they don't go into. It's reading too much into that to say they "took offence". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.123.226.227 (talk) 10:55, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Powers of prediction?

[edit]

Can this song be both a portrayal of a rowdy night out in Leeds and a correct prediction of riots in England in August 2011. Was girls scrabbling around with with no clothes on a big feature of the 2011 riots? What's the relevance of chip fat? What makes the song a prediction of these riots and not, for example, of the Glasgow Rangers fans riot in Manchester in 2008? I think we need something more verifiable than a report of a throw-away line in a radio interview after the event... 80.176.88.21 (talk) 20:26, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
