It starts with a man, walking, who begins to intersperse his steps with dance moves. The song alludes to the band's prior hit " One Thing" with the lyric "I should just stay home, if one thing really means one". The single has three versions one is the original CD version, while the other two are radio edit versions, in which the line containing the word " shitty" is either censored or replaced with "shady". A bunch of laser lights and girls dancing to Lil’ Wayne – we’re screwed. That’s our place – where we feel comfortable. We belong in a dirty little bar in the corner drinking. Obviously there is a big difference between like a pub and a club. I don’t know if he had a particular experience about that or just it’s every fucking time you go to a bar that’s what happens. It’s so cool that finally that’s being said.’. (laughs) We were all coming from that place, so when he wrote that song, it was like, ‘Oh, man. You’re always the guy in the corner that feels awkward and just drinks too much and then says something stupid and goes home lonely. Drummer Rich Beddoe said "It's something the whole band feels". "Paralyzer" is about feeling uncomfortable in a dance club. Finger Eleven occasionally performed "Take Me Out" during the middle of Paralyzer in live performances as a part of a medley along with " Trampled Under Foot" by Led Zeppelin and " Another Brick in the Wall (Part II)" by Pink Floyd. The style of the song has been compared to (though inspired by) " Take Me Out", a 2004 single by indie rock band Franz Ferdinand. However, the song has also been characterized as alternative rock. The song has surpassed " One Thing" to be Finger Eleven's most successful single.įinger Eleven's frontman Scott Anderson has said that the single has a feel distinct from the rest of Finger Eleven's music, possessing more of a funk rock or dance-rock sound. The song received high airplay in both the United States and Canada, and was performed live on the Maepisode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and again ten months later on January 9, 2008, in a testament to the longevity of the single's success. It was released as the lead single from their fourth studio album, Them vs. " Paralyzer" is a song by Canadian rock band Finger Eleven.
