    I rate this title off for age 2 and give it 1.0

    Get another cd....

    Franz Ferdinand is a great band... I feel sorry they have to be put on one of these compilations of bland music. Well atleast they are getting recognized, the only band on the album that really deserves any of the credit they are getting.
