"Streetcar" was the first single released from Funeral for a Friend's second album Hours on 30 May 2005. It charted at number 15 in the UK, making it their highest charting single to date. It contains a heavy driving drum beat and backing riff, with melodic vocal work throughout and phone style effects, i.e. ringing phone dials in the intro and phone call voices in the interlude. It is one of Funeral For A Friend's most popular songs to date. It was featured in the soundtrack for Madden NFL 06. The song was also included as pre-installed music on the HDDs of the early Xbox 360s.
