    Very few artists can sound like they do on their album, and Brandon is def one of them. No auto tune bullshit needed for his voice . He (in my opinion) is one of the best singers ever.

      i know it's crazy how similarly he sings live compared the recorded songs. Especially now when autotune is so prominent, hearing him live is just amazing.

      It's neither a sequel nor a prequel. Miss Atomic Bomb is the reality, Mr Brightside is the fantasy that tore said reality apart.

      @@Stark-Raving I think the mixture of animation and live action with the same characters in the Mr. Brightside video they use for the video for this song, it's the same person looking back at the same moment in time, but with a new point of view, clearer, yet still emotional, as he says in the lyrics - "The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
      But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
      Miss Atomic Bomb".

    I love this band a lot. It frustrates me how criminally underrated they are even though they're considered mainstream music. But I do remember Brandon saying in an interview that he wanted The Killers to stay that way. Gotta respect that

    To everyone who is hating on the crowd... I've been to show tapings. Not Letterman, but others similar. The crowd was likely instructed to act subdued during the filming so to not interfere with the performance. It's not like a concert. You get a major tutorial how to behave before filming begins and anyone who acts out is immediately removed and it's all edited out. Hell, before you even come they send a dress code to your house. You are instructed on what colors are appropriate to wear or even what style. It's very specific and you are judged by assistants the instant you walk in the door even as to even where you sit, because only the ones they choose appear on camera in the sweeping crowd shots. This is a great performance, but the crowd acted as directed if they wanted to stay.

    • @jenniferkonstant5920
      @jenniferkonstant5920 7 років тому +10

    • @sbe79
      @sbe79 6 років тому +3

      Back when they shot, Martha Stewart and Tyra Banks sent dress codes in e-mail. Certain colors would not be tolerated and honestly Tyra gave me a Gap sweater to cover the fact that they hated my green polo shirt.

    You were standing with your girlfriends in the street
    Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be
    I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes
    I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies
    When I look back on those neon lights
    The leather seats, the passage rite
    I feel the heat, I see the light
    Miss Atomic Bomb
    Making out, we've got the radio on
    You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
    You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
    Racing shadows under moonlight
    Through the desert on a hot night
    And for a second there we'd won
    Yeah, we were innocent and young
    Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart
    So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part
    It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back
    You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack
    Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black
    You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love
    Holdin' on for your life
    All that I wanted was a little touch,
    A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no
    Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time
    Miss Atomic Bomb
    Making out we've got the radio on
    You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
    You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
    Racing shadows under moonlight
    We're taking chances on a hot night
    And for a second there we'd won
    Yeah we were innocent and young
    The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
    But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
    Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here
    Sweat on my skin
    And this love that I've cradled
    Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb)
    But I'm standing here and you're too late
    Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate
    It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back (it's a proving ground)
    You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn it to chance)
    Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a loser's game)
    You should have seen your little face, burning for love,
    (Miss Atomic Bomb)
    Holdin' on for your life
    But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch)
    When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much)
    There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time)

    If he isn't lip singing (I know he isn't), then he is probably the best live singer I've heard yet, at least in terms of sounding like the studio version. That's impressive.
