not sure if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my brother for the last couple of days =)
Damn, I almost cried in the "Now cinderella dont you go to sleep.." part. You can really feel Brandon's pain if you know what the song is about. Definitely one of the best songs from one of the best bands ever.
I mean they don’t have a song I don’t love but this song is just ridiculous. The David letterman performance is my favorite with the orchestra and all the violins. He almost cries and one point. The only thing that ruins it is letterman’s stupid jokes and lack of respect so I always skip over him.
@@lyndaframe1986 It’s a song about his parents meeting as teens and their family over the years. The emotional impact is mainly driven by the last verse. I copy pasted the following from another source: “Brandon said in an interview that his mother, Jean Flowers, was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer when he was putting the song together, before he recorded it in the studio. Knowing that her time was near, he wanted to learn as much about her life and all the knowledge his parents had to share, including the story of how they met. He then released A Dustland Fairytale with Day & Age in November 2008. When Brandon's mother had about 9 months left to live, he performed the song live with a full orchestra on David Letterman, a performance that is considered to be one of his most emotional. She lost her battle with cancer that February. Please remember the mother who raised him to be the wonderful man we know every time you hear this song.”
@@mcor1 thank you. I will look for a link to that performance. I appreciate you copying and pasting the info. I just feel closer to the USA knowing that Jean Yvonne Barlow was from a Scottish family and then met Brandon's dad💖. They did indeed produce a remarkable individual in Brandon. 🤩👍
Now Cinderella, don't you go to sleep. It's such a bitter form of refuge. Why don't you know the kingdom's under siege And everybody needs you. Is there still magic in the midnight sun, Or did you leave it back in '61?
There was absolutely no need to share this song with the Boss.This song represents the highest form of the Killer's art. No one can cover it, let alone sing a duet to it.I lost my mom early on and each time I hear him singing about everybody needing his,I sigh and hold my chest.Much of popular music is very good prose such as that by newer groups like Dawes.This is poetry.It is beauty.It is life for good or for bad..Wonderful.DaVinci didn't ask Rembrandt to help with the Mona Lisa.This is the best rendition of this song that I have seen or heard.Thanks.
I agree and I love your thoughts on this - from one passionate artist (me) to another. This music changes lives and the whole world for the better 💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶
Totally agree with you danieljudge...this is genius writing from someone who's clearly felt the pain and impact of losing a loved one. No one can ever come close and beat this performance. Listening to the killers makes me feel so effing fantastic I'm a very young 60yr old and unfortunately never seen them live yet. Best band EVER
This is his best❣️ Didn't care for the Springstein duet... Altho, loved him on Letterman... But,... THIS IS" IT"❣️ May your dear Mother rest until we have our reunion, when FATHER returns❤️🙏✝️
Esta cancion es acerca de sus padres que se conocen en el 61.Su padre era un alcholico hasta que brandon tenia 5 años. entonces "change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire," habla de su padre que se volvio Mormon y dejo de beber. "His mom knew he'd come around." se refiere a que su mama sabía que él lo haría. "Now cynderella Don´t you go to sleep". Es Brandon pidiendole a su madre que luche contra un cancer que padece, aunque ella murio. Por eso canta canta con tal sentimiento
Absolutely Definitely My Favourite 🤩 Killers song 🎶 it really makes the Butterflies 🦋 Flutter & makes my Heart ❤️ like a Squishy Marshmallow 🍡lots of Love ❤️ XxxTracyXxx ❤️
I love this band they're absolutely brilliant. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. I also love the doors and so many other groups that were around in the 60s . There still are so many other incredible bands and the killers are definitely one of them 😊
Poor Dave , I know exactly how you must feel. All the boys flirting and having a laugh with with me til my hot mate turns up and I get dropped like a hot potato!! Hahaha
No sabia el significado ni la letra de esta canción cuando los vi en vivo, aún así llore mucho, cuando entendí el sentido de la canción, entendí por qué habia llorado en el concierto...es raro, es de esas canciones que no es necesario entender sus letras para sentirla.
Saw them last saturday, the hole band was really passionate since the last time they played here was four years ago. When this song started the hole stadium lit their flashlights and Brandon just cried, took three minutes for him to continue singing. Even though i wasn't that close, the live performance of this song is always incredible.
@@wendystevens8428 It was at Allianz Park, São Paulo, Brazil. It was a event for the Grand Prix, some national bands played and then Twenty One Pilots opened for them
Saw this tour .. not at Royal hall clearly lol.. but in Seattle .. seeing them again for the 7th time .. and the 6th at the same Seattle Venue they’ve played in since Sam’s Town/Sawdust .. to see the mirage / Pressure tour ! 2 new albums we haven’t seen live thanks to the apocalypse.. unless u were lucky enough to catch a Vegas show before the world stopped
Te puedes saber toda la letra de sus canciones, pero cuando te detienes a escucharla y prestarle toda tu atención, hay algo hermoso que sientes, algo que dentro de ti se conmueve por completo. Larga vida a The Killers
Anyone here in 2024? 😁
This is one of those songs where the live version blows away the studio version
Facts.
Totally agree - it has one thing the studio version doesn't have.... a loving audience.
@@dougieladd I think it's more than that LOL
not sure if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the new movies and series on instaflixxer. I've been streaming with my brother for the last couple of days =)
@Hamza Paxton Yup, I have been using InstaFlixxer for months myself =)
"Is there still magic in that midnight sun? Or did you leave It back in sixty one"
Hits me every time
what does it means? sorry, I'm not a english native
@@CanalMateriaGriz His mother has cancer and he's telling her to fight it (or she has no more energy from 1961 when she met his father).
@@methdd his mother was born in 61, slight variance from what you said but you are right
It's crazy to say.... Killers? One of the best bands in rock history. Imagine if they were around in 1975???
Best of 21st century imo... their catalouge is massive
@@thomasduray9163killers and arctic monkeys definitely the best of this century
Imagine if they were the 1975 I read that as 😂
I’m not sure there are many songwriters better than Flowers.
I agree.. I saw them in the summer and went home having speechless how good they were! Amazing
1:01 I just imagine someone in Ronnie’s earpiece shouting MORE EMOTION RONNIE, MORE EMOTION
Damn, I almost cried in the "Now cinderella dont you go to sleep.." part. You can really feel Brandon's pain if you know what the song is about. Definitely one of the best songs from one of the best bands ever.

@@MonaRoo88 Completely agree! Letterman was so tone deaf and disrespectful. He probably didn’t even listen to the song or notice the raw emotion.
Please say more about this song. I know nothing here in Scotland 🎶💖

This is the most cleverly written and emotional song about losing someone due to cancer and the impact it has... genius and amazing❤
This band needs to put out a movie with all their songs. Name it Sams Town!!!!
Has there ever been a voice that sounded so perfect live
Bro, this is a concert damn, this guy is a true performer damn.
This song continues to make me sad, melancholic, happy and hopeful at the same time.
Best comment ever!
Most powerful rock song ever man fucking wow from start to finish
This is absolutely everything a performance should be; dude just has a moment with the entire building. 10/10.
It was 2 nights put together.
Oh Moon River what youve done to me.. im a mess just saw them in st paul, Mn by myself , im 64yrs old and this is music that makes me feel alive
Me too, I'm 63 and got to go last year to see them in ft worth
Brandon poured his damn heart and soul at the end damn what a finish
When there's no smart phone , everyone just enjoy the show, good old days :')
3:54 is the most magical moment in concert history. The passion in his voice is so amazing.
That's not just passion it's profound grief. This song is about his mother's death from cancer.
@@andreasharff1138 Not really
Tom T it is
@@andreasharff1138 Wow. Did not know that.
Why I love this version better than the studio version.
3:37 breaks my heart, so much feeling and grief in his voice. Oh my heart!
Now Cinderella, don't you go to sleep.
It's such a bitter form of refuge.
Why don't you know the kingdom's under siege
And everybody needs you.
Is there still magic in the midnight sun,
Or did you leave it back in '61?
God damn poetry.
💖💖💖💖💖
Das schönste Märchen der Welt !!!! Danke The Killers !!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s 2024 and still this is awesome !
They are really underrated
3:54 probably best moment in a concert ever... Everybody needs you...
The greatest live version of any song ever.
There are few songs that can wreck me like this one
I could watch this video thousand times.. just amazing
There the best
This is just one of the best performances that have ever been in the world.
Can't express the LOVE I have for this song.
Makes me tear up EVERY time!
I love me my Killers!
B-You're absolutely Beautiful!
This is easily their best song and the best rock song of the 21st century.
katniss 🤟I agree ❤️❤️
I agree
That's quite a bold statement
The perfect ending , the best live , the most touching song , the greatest performance... !
Made me cry :c
What a stellar performance! Lucky those who got to attend this concert.

Great artists usually don’t have a problem dueting with another great artist. I love both versions
I agree and I love your thoughts on this - from one passionate artist (me) to another. This music changes lives and the whole world for the better 💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶💖🎶
Agreed 💯 the Boss wish he had written this. The Killers covered Romeo and Juliet out of respect. Then they topped it. Respect.
Totally agree with you danieljudge...this is genius writing from someone who's clearly felt the pain and impact of losing a loved one. No one can ever come close and beat this performance.

HOLY SHIT!!
A CLASSIC!! Brandon's voice and those strings break my heart every time I hear it....The Killers RULE!!
I love musicians who love their music and love to perform and share with the audience.
As intimate a performance as it can get in that type of iconic venue. Just beautiful.
Greatest live version of this song ever!!
The Best Perfect!!
"I saw the Devil wrapping up his hands. He was getting ready for the showdown."
Love that Dave is wearing a The Killers t-shirt :)
Not many bands write a perfect sing.
This is his best❣️
Didn't care for the Springstein duet...
Altho, loved him on Letterman...
But,... THIS IS" IT"❣️
May your dear Mother rest until we have our reunion, when FATHER returns❤️🙏✝️
World's Best Band !!
That was Dave's moment, Brandon.
So proud of these boys. I watched them make it from Vegas. So proud.
I wish there was more in this song, 5 minutes are not enough!
you can hear his pain because he knows what the song is about
This is art.

This is the best part.

I'm crying a lot
Every song by them is like that. Just awesome
I love when he said i need a moment! brandon is so cuteeeeeeee!!!
My goal in life is the experience the joy thats evident on the drummer's face at approximately 3:32.
I'm pretty sure I'd cry if I got to see this song live.
I think I did chicago last September
Soy caribeña y esta canción sigue siendo una de mis favoritas from THE KILLERS. Nada, que hacía falta un comentario en español aquí
i will never not cry at this.
Epic Performance….. Epic!
Such a good song, live from Albert hall was by far there best album!
Oh my God Brandon Flowers. I'm obsessed with him.
i swear i got goosebombs watching this!!!
I love this band they're absolutely brilliant. That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. I also love the doors and so many other groups that were around in the 60s . There still are so many other incredible bands and the killers are definitely one of them 😊

Aj United David Letterman with the String ensemble takes the torch

Nadie puede estar más cerca de este concierto que la gota de sudor que se desliza sobre la mejilla de Brandon.
