Kaiser Chiefs - I predict a riot single cover
 "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 soon re-released on 22 August 2005 as a double A-side with new song, "Sink that Ship". This time, it peaked at #9 in the charts.
Portraying a rowdy night out in their native Leeds, "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 Leodensian"), after whom the school house of Ricky Wilson was named. The song is unusual in chart music for its use of the pronoun "thee"; this is a nod to the band's Yorkshire origins, for "thee" and "thou" survived in Yorkshire dialect (and are still used to an extent today) much longer than in more widespread British usage. Both "I Predict a Riot" and "Sink that Ship" were featured on the soundtrack to the video game Gran Turismo 4. "Take My Temperature", a B-side on the initial release, is a live favourite, notably at earlier gigs.
