Franz Ferdinand, the Gay band?

On their previous self titled alblum they had a song called "Michael" that had serious overtones of homosexuality. Now off of their new alblum, "You could have it so much better" there is a song played all over the radio(KROQ for those of you who listen) called "Do You Want To?" read these lyrics...

He's a friend and I knew him before you, oh yeah
Well he's a friend and he's so proud of you
You're famous friend well I blew him before you, oh yeah

I dont' know if you can get any more homosexual than that. Just thought I'd bring this up, as this is the first commercial gay band I know of...

Actually, I think their music is kinda cool... doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it's funny... good instrumentals too..

But the homosexual stuff I could do w/ out... and NO, i'm not homophobic... gay people are kewl.

Yeah okay, I still think that's pretty homosexual.
