I absolutely adore this song. The line "I know that we can heal over time" has helped me out more over the last year than I can accurately express. Love it.
Yeah the Vegas is really in his showmanship and costumes yet for a band from sin city they are pretty wholesome. Mormon in Vegas God is everywhere I suppose.
I remember hearing this when it was released in 2008. It is music that causes me to reflect on life; the bad, the good, the sorrow and the joy. Now and again I find myself randomly singing the song.
It's been about 10 years since I last heard this song. It's incredible how many memories and feelings you can get back for a moment while hearing an old song that you liked very much...
Pretty decent video. Gives a mix of oddly nostalgic wife shots of a landscape and a video you would find early in the morning on MTV that you would be mesmerized by
Fuck. So The Killers were one of those bands I grew up with (born in 1990) as they were coming out with their first 3 albums (scientifically, you tend to attach yourself to the music you were listening to when you were between 14 and 16). Hot Fuss is an absolute banger. Sam's Town is basically a grittier Hot Fuss with a little less creativity and a whole lot more Brandon style writing. Day & Age was initially a head scratcher for me. I enjoyed Human. Joy Ride. Sometimes Losing Touch. Before I continue, this anecdote needs a little background. As I am now growing into my 30s, I am now realizing that my mother was indeed "always right" and she obsessively wants to always do the right thing and take charge of a situation and shoulder a lot of responsibility. I am now realizing that that is what I have been aspiring to. When we were kids though, we never really appreciated the effort she put forth. We took for granted how she was the facilitator for my brother's, my father's, and my own happiness. She never wanted picked the movie, the restaurant, the next CD to listen to on family vacation. She certainly shared with us those moments, but she took pride and found joy in just taking care of the stuff nobody thinks about or wants to do or is afraid to start. I was a shitty son. I did not understand. So when my mother had an opinion I felt it necessary to be against that. I felt trapped in the family run by her. But I was a kid. She had every right to. She immediately really liked this song. Now while synthpop is not my thing, I can appreciate "good music" in any genre. I listened to this song less because she liked it. Now her I am listening with ears that have not heard it close to a decade. After studying and growing so much as an amateur musician (according to my definition) throughout my life (especially the past 3 years) and falling in love with music... This is a really, really good song. My mother is always right. It breaks my heart that I was such a shitty kid. I am forever in her debt, constantly trying to repay her, all while trying to navigate this increasingly difficult life. I am tired. I am sad. And there exist so many more heartbreaking anecdotes than joyful ones. In my opinion.
I listened to this album so much when it came out and this was my least favorite song at the time, now it’s one of my favorites after “this is your life”💋💕 rock on Brandon!!!!!!❤❤❤
Esta canción me hace recordar cuando tenía una gran motivación por ser Ing. Ambiental, quería serlo para poder ayudar al planeta. Tenía 18 años, estaba en la academia preparándome para ingresar a la universidad. Lo que más recuerdo ahora es que en algún momento me sentía muy motivado a alcanzar algo, es bonito. En estos últimos tiempos siento que vivo en modo automático, escuchando la canción vuelvo a sentir que en algún momento me sentía muy enfocado a algo. Bueno, ingresé a la universidad pero a estudiar economía. Ahora más de 10 años después ya me encuentro trabajando. No puedo decir que me va mal, pero si que me falta tener claro objetivos en corto y largo plazo, sino se siente un sinsabor.
Después de años escucho de nuevo esto. Cuando era niño me gustaba la melodia, el instrumental... Ahora de adulto entiendo mejor la canción. Sin duda tremendo pedazo de arte. Quizas la banda tenga canciones mas pegajosas pero esto... No sé como deje de escucharla hace años.
Isadora Godoy The original videos were on an old account in low resolution. Might as well put them out in better quality. Gives us nice little throwbacks in the process.
Seen them 3 times now, Spain 2009 , London 2017 and Glastonbury 2017. Unbelievable band and Brandon is such an amazing front man. Glastonbury was my favourite as they were a surprise and only had 60 minutes on stage so played all the classics. Can't wait to see them again!
Before they started to reupload these music videos I didn't know there was a video for this and Smile Like You Mean It. This is probably my favorite song from Day & Age ❤️
This song helps me keep going on in my life. Life’s been really hard for me but I’m still here fighting to live life and be happy again soon. Thanks for letting me share. I have a brain injury and I may have missed spelled some words. Sorry.
I realize this is an older song but it's new to me and the lyrics resonate deep to my heart because it's getting to the place I've been feeling the last year or so over the heartbreak and how a vulnerable person may see the world somewhat unprotected and exposed to the harsher elements."I heard a rumor that you quit this day and age" for me that's a truth I've been feeling for some time.. I don't feel like I should've been born in this generation .. it's not for me , I don't fit in and no longer even want to try and comprehend the cruelty vanities selfishness and plain narcissistic view of the current society and what the media would have us try and accept as "normal" but as you sing,"This is the world that we live in, I feel myself get tired". I'm super burnt out on the worldliness of this day and age and I definitely long for "simpler times" especially for the children.."I gotta believe it's worth it without a victory " Trying to. "I'm so sanctified and free." The only freedom I get is when immersed in those sacred texts or used books from the past that echo some sort of Eternal truth rather than the fleeting sins and temporary pleasures of this world.. "Baby we are still in this" Yes I'm still in this world . I have children who look up to me as their example and I'm their rock. They know and are told everyday more than a few times that they are loved, adored and talented and special and they even complain getting "way too many hugs" from mom.. But that's what they need to feel secure and I'll give what I never got because that's how love works.. "Bless your body. Bless your soul . Pray for peace and self control" I love that because I'm a true believer in blessings and I have a testimony of the Priesthood.. I'll never deny that but I guess since I've had that "unrighteous dominion " put over me it's made me open to go outside of the faith cause I'd rather have a good man that loves Jesus over one appearing to have the goodness on the outside only to try and control and dominate my soul. That hadn't worked for me.. Almost destroyed me a couple of times" Pray for peace and self control" I've always had the gift of being disciplined and having that self control no matter the circumstance or setting but having that peace is difficult in this wicked fallen world and I feel peace more in the home w children or in nature with animals or serving in the temple or someone who needs service or uplifting or advice or kindness.."I can't take the blame for two " that's a problem I used to have .. trying to take accountability for a spouses actions to "ease the blow" on their soul..That doesn't work.. Self sacrifice became co-dependency . I always knew I deserved better deep down and I actually like myself and feel I'm in good standing with the Lord for my obedience and love and prayers .. but I thought I had to suffer as much as He did to be worthy. That's never true in a marriage though, it's not supposed to be about suffering for the others actions or words or anger, it's supposed to be a "shelter " and safety from the "world that we live in" I had my "lessons learned " the hard way but if I could ever help ease someone else's suffering with mine or what I've learned or talk them through then I can be of service and a healer in a way and it makes it all "worth it".Thank you for the insightful words.. I love the video too, reminds me of winters in the Utah mountains where I grew up.. and I like the feathered black costumes and I love seeing the black bird still fly amidst the frozen cold nature..It gives hope of light and freedom.. It also reminds me of myself I guess because I've been thinking of names and wondering if I should go back to the "maiden name " It's a bird, a Peacock.. I didn't like it growing up because it stood out, but now I think it's an appropriate description of what I am now.. The bird with wings and bright colors admired for what's so visible on the outside yet is often caged and can't even fly.. And all I've ever really wanted to do was fly but I find myself in situations and with people that won't let that happen or just don't like the freedom of my spirit.. Maybe someday I'll have that person who helps me to fly. I'm hoping and praying for that but only God knows the answer so I'll trust Him that I can fly someday in a "world we live in" that seems to have caged me in once again. Anyway thank you for your talents , creativity both visually and musically and God bless you with peace, energy, calmness, clarity, creativity and courage!😇👍🏼💕🙏🏼
#TheKillers Its Friday March 13th 2020 And I still Enjoy Your 2008 Song #TheWorldWeLiveIn Especially the #Remastered Version And #ThankYou for bringing back the #80sMusic Sincerely Always,Dave Minnesota
Ok so i will tell how i get here for a long i had memories of that song when it broadcasted in cartoon network tunes 10 years back. I keep remembering despite not knowing the name of the song and so today after a whole night of search i finally found and i feel im going back to that time :)
you are not alone, i come from Mexico and i found this song again when i was 15 years old, only searching "This is the world" , since then I never felt so much nostalgia again
People like to shit on Day and Age for some reason... I don’t know why, every song off the album was amazing. It’s my favorite of there albums I could never get tired of listening to the album. Each song so good. I’m 17 now and I still listen to the killers they are my favorite band as well...😂
I like all the records, this is maybe a littel more comercial, more pop than indi, buy I like all the songs... they had great lyrics, they are great band....
It does have a little more pop to it, it kinda drifted away from the sound we knew. But to me, all the albums have their own sound and they still evolve. Great album though!
Day & Age is a seriously underrated album. Every track on it is pure gold.
So true.
It was my favorite album to blaze to in highschool when it came out
''Is a very rare album'' :)
I feel the same about battleborn
Agreed. This song is so true to the times we are living...
Todos los latinos que aman a The Killers por favor reportense!
Nelson
Argentinaaaaa.
Mi banda favorita
Hay una cancion vieja que suena muy parecida a esta alguien sabe cual es?
Aquí desde Argentina!
Lesson learned and the wheel keeps turning🙌
the most underrated killers songs ever
So true, it give me the power to straight it on
It was so so, the only point that didn't convinced me is the sound of the drums, not that are bad, but it sounds like tunned for pop instead of rock
There are a lot of those IMO. This would be near or at the top tho
yes, have amazing lyrics
What a song
I absolutely adore this song. The line "I know that we can heal over time" has helped me out more over the last year than I can accurately express. Love it.
This is the part that I love it!!!
Yes!
Tragos
Tragia
Prefer "Can't take blame for two" ❤
And "no we cant go back" too.😊
Oh Brandon and his costumes are truly captivating
Yeah the Vegas is really in his showmanship and costumes yet for a band from sin city they are pretty wholesome. Mormon in Vegas God is everywhere I suppose.
He wears everything well❤
This is a criminally underrated song
Probably one of their most underrated tracks and also This Is Your Life.
his smile at the end kills me every damn time. dear God that man is beautiful.
I remember hearing this when it was released in 2008. It is music that causes me to reflect on life; the bad, the good, the sorrow and the joy. Now and again I find myself randomly singing the song.
I find myself doing the same!!
The Killers are hands down the best
Hungry Pug Amen.
Hungry Pug Personally they’re my #2 favorite band
Bobble Head who is #1?
Preachhhhh
Slot Machines In The Laundromat Damn Straight!
I remember watching this on MTV when I was a kid. What a memories 🙂
Great song. Beautiful looking Mr Brandon Richard Flowers.😍
This song is so relevant right now.
"... pray for peace and self-control.. " I feel myself get tired"
"No, we can't go back . "
Pure genius. Thank you, The Killers ❤
do not take drugs people you're beautiful the way you are....tell the bullies no, God bless you all that get to read this
this song is criminally underrarted
"Bless your body, bless your soul
Pray for peace and self control" FOR UPCOMING YEARS.
It's 2020 and maybe we'll make it through...
we can heal over time
The pandemic hit hard
We are heading towards good times! Coming out of the dark ages into the age of Aquarius
@@MKULTRASUPERSOLDIERGIRLUSA yeah surely better times will have nothing to do with science, way to go 🙄
The world where we live in, we can't go back.
Very much fitting the last 2.5 years.
The world can be lonely, cold and has no mercy but it's beautiful no matter what!
It's been about 10 years since I last heard this song. It's incredible how many memories and feelings you can get back for a moment while hearing an old song that you liked very much...
One of their best songs. Cracker ending with "I know that we can heal over time". Simply amazing.
They are the best band from the 2000s
This song is so wholesome
Ya llevo 10 años escuchando esta misma canción y sigue evocando los mismos sentimientos de cuando la escuché por primera vez.
Este el mundo en que vivimos amigos y casa día esta mas cansado :(
Me trae muchos recuerdos
Creo que varios seguimos necesitando terapia, fuerza hermanos
personally one of my fav songs from day and age. what a shame it never got the attention as the other songs.
I feel like the world wasnt ready for this album in 2008 but I think it would be now. The Killers were always ahead of their time.
Yep
Yes! This song popped up in my head today, and now I've listened to it on repeat for about 20 times.
This song heals me since I was 12 yo kid
Pretty decent video. Gives a mix of oddly nostalgic wife shots of a landscape and a video you would find early in the morning on MTV that you would be mesmerized by

Thanks for this
Thanks for sharing. I hope you (and all of us) can heal over time.
Thanks for sharing friend
Thanks Ronie and Brandon for not abandoning us
The best band of all time
Brazil awaits in March
One of their most underrated hits to date
The World has changed a bit since 2008

1:26 ❤️❤️❤️ i love him
I LOVEEEE THIS SONG! One of their best.
The song title reminds me of a Depeche Mode lyric! Love it. 💜
just now, after 12 years since my first time i listened this song, the lyrics make sense to me.
Después de años escucho de nuevo esto. Cuando era niño me gustaba la melodia, el instrumental... Ahora de adulto entiendo mejor la canción. Sin duda tremendo pedazo de arte. Quizas la banda tenga canciones mas pegajosas pero esto... No sé como deje de escucharla hace años.
Am I the only one who loves that they're making music videos for their classic songs?
darkfire gaming the videos were already done and uploaded, idk why they're reuploading them
Isadora Godoy The original videos were on an old account in low resolution. Might as well put them out in better quality. Gives us nice little throwbacks in the process.
Gracias a dios los pude ver en México 🇲🇽 y fue una joya ver a mi banda favorita
Seen them 3 times now, Spain 2009 , London 2017 and Glastonbury 2017. Unbelievable band and Brandon is such an amazing front man.
Glastonbury was my favourite as they were a surprise and only had 60 minutes on stage so played all the classics.
Can't wait to see them again!
Oh the Killers..loved them for fourteen years and I'll never stop!
One Of The BEST Killers Song I Have Heard, All Their Songs Are Phenomenal, Well Done Guys
So nostalgic MTV.
Before they started to reupload these music videos I didn't know there was a video for this and Smile Like You Mean It. This is probably my favorite song from Day & Age ❤️
Once I saw this video in MTV back in 2009, a Killers fan was born, and I was only 4.
OMG I used to listen this song all the time back in 2009 when I was 12 years old, now I'm 20 and this has brought back so many memories! wow...
Wow such truth can’t be spoken so more beautifully thank the killers with everything today we are saved with your songs
Mexico siempre presente ! 🙋🏻♂️ 🇲🇽
Briant Vega Gonzalez ok....what does that have to do with the video
Hungry Pug ur nickname it say everything . 😂👍🏽
Y para siempre💕
Briant Vega Gonzalez claro siempre😎
Por lo general me dan igual estos comentarios pero en este caso Fuck yeah, México es el segundo país de The Killers 💕💕
all this old staff makes me feel good, thx
Never heard this song before but I seriously lovee love it. All the twists and turn in the melody
Saudade da MTV Brasil... sempre passava esse clipe ❤
Finally I can play this video in my phone. Just a wonderful song, and Brandon is amazing. 💕
This song helps me keep going on in my life. Life’s been really hard for me but I’m still here fighting to live life and be happy again soon. Thanks for letting me share. I have a brain injury and I may have missed spelled some words. Sorry.

Its Friday March 13th 2020 And I still Enjoy Your 2008 Song #TheWorldWeLiveIn Especially the #Remastered Version And #ThankYou for bringing back the #80sMusic Sincerely Always,Dave Minnesota
❤❤❤ back here again
Love this song, Brandon is so awkwardly lovely.
The Killers gives me life ♥
pretty sure it was some random guy and chick =/
Make that a random guy and drunk chick 🤣🤣
Amanda Zlatan
Oh
Probably one of my fave albums from them! Takes me back to my sophmore years in high school
I must say this song aged really well considering the covid pandemic. Almost like the song itself was written with this in mind.
Lesson learned and the wheels keep turning
To me this pic is pure serenity
"This is the world that we live in
I feel myself get tired" ... my themesong for life at the moment. somehow singing it makes me feel better.
snow, books, the killers, are a perfect mix
The best fuckin band of the world. 😍❤
Pop band walks through the wilderness.
Ok so i will tell how i get here for a long i had memories of that song when it broadcasted in cartoon network tunes 10 years back. I keep remembering despite not knowing the name of the song and so today after a whole night of search i finally found and i feel im going back to that time :)
you are not alone, i come from Mexico and i found this song again when i was 15 years old, only searching "This is the world" , since then I never felt so much nostalgia again
IT'S BACK! The Killers are STILL full of surprises!
So glad they uploaded my fav song
I always noticed the original video wasn't lip-synced properly. So glad they re-uploaded
People like to shit on Day and Age for some reason... I don’t know why, every song off the album was amazing. It’s my favorite of there albums I could never get tired of listening to the album. Each song so good. I’m 17 now and I still listen to the killers they are my favorite band as well...😂
same with Battle Born! how do people hate on these albums?!
I like all the records, this is maybe a littel more comercial, more pop than indi, buy I like all the songs... they had great lyrics, they are great band....
It does have a little more pop to it, it kinda drifted away from the sound we knew. But to me, all the albums have their own sound and they still evolve. Great album though!
The lyrics are gold
Me encanta como otros de mis tiempos del 2010 felizmente aun existe la buena onda😍
12th anniversary of this single. Amazing song!
This is the best song ever.
