It was released as the third single to promote the album on 28 October 2013. The song was written by Alex Kapranos and Nick McCarthy, was recorded during 2013, and was produced by Kapranos and Todd Terje. ==Critical reception== Adam Silverstein of Digital Spy wrote, "'Evil Eye' soldiers on with the short, snappy stomp and delves into the psyche of a paranoiac ("It looks so clean but I can see the crawling, crawling creatures"), all via a groove that pays homage to Queen's 'Another One Bites the Dust'." AllMusic's Heather Phares noted that "Evil Eye" is one of the songs on the album that "feel like direct descendants of the band's debut," and it "gives the gut-punching beats of "Take Me Out" a campy twist with mischievous keyboards destined to make it the coolest song on the Halloween party playlist." According to Dan Stubbs of ''NME'' magazine, "there's a freshness to the sound" on "Evil Eye", and the song is "essentially Snoop Dogg's 'What's My Name?' via Rockwell's 'Somebody's Watching Me' – creepy, jumpy and as funky as James Brown's ghost." Pitchfork's Ian Cohen wrote that "The chorus of 'Evil Eye' slinks and skulks enough to recall a time when Franz Ferdinand sounded sleazier and more dancefloor-oriented than your average rock band, but it has to fight through a verse filled with bothersome vocal filters (an indulgent byproduct of their self-production) to do so." In a similar tone, James Manning of ''Time Out'' magazine noted that "'Evil Eye' matches its big, funky strut with creepy vintage organs, while a heavily-reverbed Kapranos cackles like a Hammer Horror villain." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Evil Eye (Franz Ferdinand song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
