I Predict a Riot
"I Predict a Riot" is a song by Kaiser Chiefs, appearing on their debut album ''Employment''. It was originally released as their second single on 1 November 2004, and was the band's first release on the B-Unique label. It entered at #22 on the UK Singles Chart, a move which started the band's rise to popularity. It was re-released on 22 August 2005 as a double A-side with a new song, "Sink That Ship". This time, it peaked at #9 in the chart.
== Background ==
Portraying a rowdy night out in their native Leeds with members from the former band Black Wire, "I Predict a Riot" is possibly the group's best-known song, as well as being their signature hit. It is one of the three tracks the band played when they opened Live 8 in Philadelphia, alongside "Everyday I Love You Less and Less" and "Oh My God".
The song makes a reference to John Smeaton ''("an old Leodiensian")'', a Civil Engineer, born in Austhorpe, Leeds. Singer Ricky Wilson's house was named after him. The song thrives on its Yorkshire heritage with the use of pronouns such as "thee", a nod to the band's origins, for "thee" and "thou" survived in Yorkshire dialect, and are still used to an extent today . Both "I Predict a Riot" and "Sink that Ship" were featured on the soundtrack to the video game ''Gran Turismo 4''. "I Predict a Riot" appeared in ''Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock'' as downloadable content alongside present from the start, "Ruby". It has also been confirmed for release for ''Rock Band''. "Take My Temperature", a B-side on the initial release, is a live favourite, notably at earlier gigs. Also, the guitar riff after "who doesn't want to be out there" is overdubbed with Hammond organ, played by Peanut. In live performances, the song begins with a drum solo played by Nick and Ricky around the same kit.
It featured in a scene of ''Las Vegas'' second season, episode 16 titled "Can You See What I See?". The song and the band are also referenced in Plan B's 2012 song Ill Manors, specifically in the lyrics ''"London's burning, I predict a riot / Fall in, fall out who knows what it's all about / What did that chief say? / Something 'bout the kaisers"''
