this song is so relatable to everyone because it has so much room for interpretation. it is definitely an artistic masterpiece in my unqualififed opinion for this feat alone
@@ONLYINOHIO-- thats like, every other song since the 60s. also not really. you can literally meet these beings. this song is both literal and interpretive.
this song might even be about becoming famous. the alien abduction is a metaphor for how the paparazzi and the fans probe into all the little details of his personal life, checking his blood type etc. the public don't really care about his feelings - they don't dwell on his transmission because it isn't televised. he wishes he could just return to his old home town, but knows he never really can escape his fame. the "starmaker" is his record producer. they find musicians and make stars out of them. these are his own thoughts about his own life. so at the end of the song he says "it's all in _my_ mind" really though, there are so many possible metaphors in this song that I can't be sure. either way though, I love this song.
Im 100% sure it is. Star making (turning people into famous people), dream maker (making your dream of being special becomes true), also the alienation of life, taking a person away from reality... Great comment!
This song is the perfect description of the day I was put in induced coma. It is such a happy version and helps me see the brightside 😎 the killers are by far the greatest band ever!
This song reminds me of bright mornings and walking thru my old neighborhood with my mom at age 6. Everything was so new and big and interesting. I wish I was in the early 2000s again
I first discovered this song while driving down a highway in the middle of nowhere at 2AM. I was freaked out by it and turned the radio off a minute in. But I looked it up later and discovered the Killers, who are now one of my favourite bands. So that's a plus.
This part got me in the heart.. And you know I might have just flown too far from the floor this time cause they calling me by my name and the zipping white light beams disregarding bombs and satellites..
This song is about Brandon trying to kill himself, but failing and then getting help. "They say the Nile used to run from East to West" refers to the placememt of the veins and the way he tried to cut.
Kyzq nope The band has even said themselves its about alien abduction THEY HAVE SAID THIS SEVERAL TIMES and that it's a fun song. Brandon also never tried to kill himself. But People are just obnoxious big headed idiots "my opinion is correct, the hell with what the actual artists have Said" You people have egos out of control, ignoring what Brandon has actually said the song was about because you want to be right.... Wow
@@kadymattox158 well i deleted my anti suicide playlist cause the songs in it just make me want to do it more now. honestly i think 2020 has probably won.
What the song is about to me is wanting something so bad and finally having it and it not being what you expected and it making you appreciate what you already have.
Its about a guy who tries to kill himself aka Overdose. He was hoping to leave this star crossed world behind. But now he wants to stay here. And it all in his mind.
Nathan Higgins nope that's just a theory never confirmed by the band The band has even said themselves its about alien abduction. SEVERAL TIMES And that it's a fun song But People are just obnoxious big headed idiots "my opinion is correct, the hell with what the actual artists have Said"
I swapped channels on the comms to something more congenial, easy riding maybe and the random locals, as I weaved by the old Bank of England, through a motorised tapestry… The Threadneedle line… entwined… a ceaseless swell of machines and the preoccupied, commuters… absorbed by the hugely epileptic commercials… or rapt inside the private introversions. Despite the rain and the ungodly time the walkways were packed, near crawling and the conveyor lines was much the same… there was not an inch of space to make a jump…
I like to think its a silly song, but at times, i feel like it has a deeper meaning. Its all on how i feel that day. I think great songs can be interpreted in many ways, and the killers sure have great songs. They might have their own interpretation they havent shared with us!
based on the band name and the song name and the voices. im guessing this song was from the late 70s early 80s. but this is a complete guess and i don't know
I like how people like like if you agree comments then they really click like because they agree just because some one asked people to like if they agree when i wouldn't even agree to like or click like based on the situation.
this song is so relatable to everyone because it has so much room for interpretation. it is definitely an artistic masterpiece in my unqualififed opinion for this feat alone
i think it talks about an lsd trip...
Suicide attempt
a 4D being realizing its a 5D being and coming back down to make the world a better place
It’s definitely about schizophrenia or other intrusive thoughts due to mental illness and trying to detach
This is my favorite killers song. I feel so good singing along. It’s just a happy sounding song.
🤍
Sorry to tell you but it has connotations of su!cide

That’s a great interpretation
This song regularly saves my life... thank you.

The public don't dwell on his transmission, 'cause it wasn't televised.
Bowie has the Starman,Elton John has the Rocketman and The Killers have the Spaceman hahaha
+Rafael Prisco González nice point!
It would be a very great trilogy XD
Nice
The Smiths has the Apeman😅
Rick and Morty have Moonman
Dude... this gives me the weirdest feeling. Like being back in the 80s. I was never in the 80s to begin with tho.
I'm thinking the same thing and I only saw eleven months of the 80s.
This song reminds me of bright mornings and walking thru my old neighborhood with my mom at age 6. Everything was so new and big and interesting. I wish I was in the early 2000s again
The Killers are one of the most diverse bands around. Unique as hell =)
"cause THEY'RE calling me by my name"
This song reminds me of 1984

this is the first song I ever liked
Ah, this is such a nostalgic song for me. My mum would put it on in the car when I was little.
your mom has great taste
Thank you, jolly ol' chap.
This part got me in the heart..
And you know I might have just flown too far from the floor this time cause they calling me by my name and the zipping white light beams disregarding bombs and satellites..
obsessed.
Its about the soul (our magic spacesoul)
I love this song! 💙💛
Congratulations.
That's nice.
and yes, your interpretation is the personal symbolism and very valid as well...3 layers of symbolism archetypal,spiritual, literal
i just remembered why i loved this band :)
stellar lights
Great song reminds me of the past this song is about a failed suicide attempt , or you might know please share .
This song is about Brandon trying to kill himself, but failing and then getting help. "They say the Nile used to run from East to West" refers to the placememt of the veins and the way he tried to cut.
It talks about different kinds of suicide attempts he done but failed.
Kyzq nope
The band has even said themselves its about alien abduction THEY HAVE SAID THIS SEVERAL TIMES and that it's a fun song.
Brandon also never tried to kill himself.
But People are just obnoxious big headed idiots "my opinion is correct, the hell with what the actual artists have Said"
You people have egos out of control, ignoring what Brandon has actually said the song was about because you want to be right.... Wow
Ahhh the old alien abduction syndrome, I'm fine but I still hear those voices at night sometimes.
this is in my anti suicide playlist, helps to feel less like im alone
This song is a banger 🤘🏼 hope all is well friendo. This is a rough year.
@@kadymattox158 well i deleted my anti suicide playlist cause the songs in it just make me want to do it more now. honestly i think 2020 has probably won.
love you , buddy
have you heard astronaut by simple plan?
@@MaxRide1 I have not, ill check that out.
Most people might disagree with me but I like to believe this song is about a Schizophrenic person. It makes the song more relatable for me.
I agree with you
It is about attempted suicide but he is saved and looking back over his descision
I'm schizophrenic and I relate
That was uncalled for.
98.7 FM Los Angeles back in the day
What a great song! Thanks.
omg!! took me a long time to find this song... i love the killers!! there so freaken awesome!!!
This song reminds me of the song Space Oddity
And the public don't dwell on my transmission Cause it wasn't televised, I like this part the most
how a good work and how clever Brandon is!!
real obsessed.
Hey Ella! I often listen to this song when I am exploring new places. Maybe we can listen to it when we go on a road trip together. 😁
is this song really about suicide?
sure is m8
+Rick Sanchez man it is about alien abduction read the text :D
+TheNeo1992 mhm
+TheNeo1992 Brandon said it's about alien abduction
flown too far from the floor seems like trying to hang yourself
What the song is about to me is wanting something so bad and finally having it and it not being what you expected and it making you appreciate what you already have.
what is this song about? i really like it.
good on you mate.
I really wanna know what this song means! :/ At first I thought alien abduction and then schizophrenia.. now I just don't know!
Its about a guy who tries to kill himself aka Overdose. He was hoping to leave this star crossed world behind. But now he wants to stay here. And it all in his mind.
Nathan Higgins nope that's just a theory never confirmed by the band
The band has even said themselves its about alien abduction. SEVERAL TIMES
And that it's a fun song
But People are just obnoxious big headed idiots "my opinion is correct, the hell with what the actual artists have Said"
damn straight!!
Amazing song thanx for the video i love the lyrics!
He said they sound like they are from the 90s or 80s, not that they are from then. :)
I think this is my favourite killers song :)
congrats im so happy for you even though i dont know who you are! :D
omg! me too.
this made me laugh aw hahah

It sounds like we're all in group therapy.
2020 anyone?
I know what this song is actually about. Only a chosen few do...and it's not anything anyone else has mentioned or would ever guess
It's a euphemism for his penis. Right?
I saw this comment a while ago and was so confused. Listened to it a couple times and well... Shit.
Madeline O'Neill haha I forgot that I wrote that. But it totally is.
Ryan Hartson I read this, processed it, then laughed for about the first minute of the song asking "why?" out loud to myself.
Ivy Robinson but then you got it?
Is this song based on the psychological effects of war on a soldier ?
It's about suicide.
BladeFire30 Gaming okay bro ^^
I actually thought it was about mental disabilities...
Devilion901 I think it's about a suicide attempt and near death experience.
flagerdevil Can you explain to me how is it about suicide attempts? I think it's interesting.
well i dont really know how to explain it but do you get a general idea of it?
you right
It's all in your mind :)
The song can mean whatever it means to you whether or not it was the artist's original intention? Maybe we can consider that?
this is perfect
i love so much this song
What happened to allowong the true renassianceperson? This would be the most optimal result.
Fuck i love this band and this song
good for you

Fave killer song!
I didnt even realize this was an older song 🤦♀️ thought it came out this year 😂
You're all wrong about the meaning of this song. This song is about a perspective on life.
GOT A HEAD OF FIREY HAIR AND A TURBO CHARGED BACKPACK
I love this song. ^^
💜axel parker💜
amazing
muito bom!!!
Yes...Embrace your inner Whovian.
can anybody say me, what the sentence : My global position systems are vocally adressed (2:57) means??
(or better, what means it in german)
thanx
Yes, I know what it means. It's awkward because The Killers had a feud with P!ATD and FOB a few years ago.
*Virtually fails at virtual highfive because I have terrible virtual hand-eye coordination*
in love with this song
I'm here for Axel Parker
i never liked this song for some reason, but now i do

I like how people like like if you agree comments then they really click like because they agree just because some one asked people to like if they agree when i wouldn't even agree to like or click like based on the situation.
