- In case you wonder, the best crowd they've had in my opinion was at the secret gig in Glastonbury 2017. specially Mr Brightside. Epic! But it's not on youtube due to copyright infringements.
In this one they played The Jacques Lu Cont's Thin White Duke Mix first + Regular version. at TRNSMT Festival 2018.
Crowd ft. The Killers

@@ameliaperez5608 exactly!!
brilliant comment
Lol 😆
I cam here for the music - got disappointed.
More people in the UK know the lyrics to Mr Brightside than God Save the Queen
Well that’s a fact, specially in a large part of Scotland.
God Save the Queen. Our Fassciast regime... oh wait, wrong song!
Fact
@@CFarnwide dude..😂😂
Honestly thought you were talking about the sex pistols. Either way, we’re Scottish and the queen really only signifies oppression. Also it’s like when anyone says “British”.. they mean English. Same with “the queen”, it’s still an English focused thing.
That’s got to be the best feeling in the world to be on stage having a crowd sing like this to a song you wrote.
yes it has to be
It’s honestly just what we do
That’s the definition of he made it
yes, says Mafer
Esp considering the circumstances that lead to him writing it too
You’ve done something right when the crowd is singing 10x louder than you are
I love that fucking love when the crowd out sings the singer because it means the song as affected their life in a good way
Coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
(It was only a kiss), it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
'Cause I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside
I never
I never
I never
I never
That's us Glaswegians for yeh!!! 😅😅😅
the sound guy did something wrong
😂😂
hes deep because he lets the crowd sing but he also repeats the chorus just for them to get what they paid for which is to hear him sing too. perfect performance
@Sean O’ Deli That is so hilariously oddly specific.
You need to look up the definition of the word "deep".
yesssssss its fun to hear the crowd but we aint comin for them

there's just something so beautiful about hearing a crowd screaming lyrics from a song together
I really cried from that
@@dougydimadome4525 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍❤️❤️😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Beautiful
Amen
Imagine having written something that brings people such emotion - that's got to be such an amazing feeling for them.
The pandemic has messed me up, apparently seeing crowds of people happy and singing brings me to actual tears now!
Thank god I'm not the only crazy one
youre not alone
Yup. Same here
same ㅠㅡㅠ
You are not alone. I want life back to the way it used to be. Alas, that isn’t going to happen anytime soon so I just watch videos of my favorite bands playing live. Or I listen to Tim Buckley and cry.
Now here's a fella that'll never have to buy his own pint wherever he finds himself in our United Kingdom
He's a Mormon. They don't drink alcohol, or do drugs not even tea or coffee for that matter. See what you can do without them!!
@@barriejonas338 it’s not that deep bud
@@barriejonas338 woah that's crazy bro you sound mormon. I like having my fun but if you're happy that's cool. You can manage amazing careers with or without tbh
@@ellenshawkelly66 Seems so!
Imagine the first ever festival after covid, and the opening performance is this fricken song right here
This comment made me cry oh my god
Bought tickets for the killers last year, got postponed of course. Can’t wait to hear this live for the first time since lockdown 👌
I was about to say similar. Wont it be so great when we can do this again and just simply celebrate life.
Best wishes to all from Oz.
@@suitcasebanana5523 I’ve also got tickets for their new tour, i’ll be seeing them in Amsterdam, unfortunately i haven’t already on june 6th 2020, the original date..
Duuuude, would be freaking awesome. I 'd cry like a baby haha
This song is part of the school curriculum in the UK
Why the UK?
@@michaelshawusa1 it's been in the top 100 for years.
@@michaelshawusa1 It's genuinely a piece of UK culture, if you lived here you'd get it
Didn’t know it was very popular in the UK. Not bad for a band from Las Vegas!
@@michaelshawusa1 Really? Haha it's smashed the record for the most time spent in the singles chart, it's still in the top 100 now. Their first record deal was over here, and they're heavily influenced by British rock, so they've always felt like one of our own in a way.
That crowd should go on tour!
Or perhaps get a record deal as well while they’re at it. Awesome crowd.
Lol 💕
we do, it’s called the tartan army
Cannae beat a Scottish crowd 🏴
@@DanskiV2 whether it’s sport, festivals or anything else, no one does it better than a Glasgow crowd
The crowd lost their minds when they picked up the speed. Holy sh*t! Goosebumps...
We love a good band in Scotland. That and laughter!
@@angieshand8089 And drink!
Great song, great band and great song in unison for a fleeting moment in time.
It's because they played the song twice, they started with the Jacques Lu Cont mix and then switched to the original.
Iconic song in the uk, how many people, of a certain age, have screamed it at the top of their lungs with their mates in pubs? Absolutely outstanding
🙋♀️
Ive been fortunate to do just this in Newcastle at the MUSHROOM and the entire club singing at the top of their lungs
The whole pub just bouncing doesn’t matter if you’re fighting, mortal or dead , you stop and join in
age does not matter, top 4 best songs of all time imo
It's iconic in every western country. Can't count how many times I've shouted it in German clubs
The Killers have such a one in a billion blessing to have the song of a generation. A fucking classic. And they sincerely indulge in it with the crowd. What amazing caretakers of the performer/audience dynamic. HELL FUCKING YEAH.
Fucking crank it🤘😈
😆👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Not a blessing. They made it. It didn't fall from the sky.
Sometimes inspiration is random and a blessing
I'd say it is defo millennials it's the song of the generation so many people my age it's there favourite song
Brandon, "I'm the lead singer"
Crowd, "I don't think so!"
Brandon Flowers' face during this, the smile of pure joy.
Imagine hearing hundreds of thousands of voices joined together singing the song that you wrote, that must be the most exciting part of any concert.
That drummer is fucking awesome
Ryah reynold
@@amerniss lol
Danny Carrey would be proud
He's skilled as fuck.
Ronnie unstoppable freaking legendary beat monster Vanucci Jr!!!
Brandon was taken aback noticeably when he started singing because he didn't expect the crowd to be that loud. He got so hyped in the second go because of the crowd! This is the best crowd of Mr. Brightside, ever.
The Killers don't own this song anymore. It belongs to us all.
The fact they can play Mr Brightside slowly to build up the crowd to then play it again but quicker with more energy is a skill few artists will ever master, never mind experience
They played the Jacques Lu Cont mix first, but yeah it works really well as the crowd was already amped up from singing the chorus.
Dynamics are a very rudimentary part of music performance
@@equipbasicswordoh I know what they did first I’ve heard it on the album and experienced it in Bolton live.
It’s rare a band utilises a remix, but my word this is astonishingly good.
Saying it’s special is an understatement
2:41 now thats a friend for life
the best feeling ever. Maybe their friends before but it happened in a concert to me... you find one guy near you who enjoys a song and end up having the time of your life with a total stranger screaming and singing
That's Tony!! The dude who eventually drummed with them!
@@sophieh8468 this Tony has been stalking while I binge watch The Killers live videos
Watching this during lockdown 2020, I miss this.
yeah this year has been god damn awful
watching this during lockdown 2021 loool
hurts so much lol
i know seeing the MASSIVE crowd it’s must be so cool
THINGS ARE LOOKING UP!!!!!
2:45 when the stage starts literally shaking. This is exactly the energy you get at a gig in Scotland. Greatest audiences in the world
Glastonbury was better
@@billy3532 behave😂😂
Ya , I live in the US, with miserable zombies
Aye ❤
When the crowd is louder than Brandon you know you wrote one hell of a song
A belter as we say in Scotland. It was a cracking night.
Every brit knows this songs lyrics having heard the song before it’s just second nature same as wonderwall
I thought the national song of the brits was Don't Look Back In Anger
@@sacrask4445 We're a versatile nation :) A song for every occasion. Don't look back in anger was very appropriate after the Manchester terrorist attack...
Oasis do not even compare they are fannies
@@alindaalexander5198 Excuse me, sir, but Oasis curbstomps The Killers in terms of musical quality. Brandon Flowers decided to make a rock and roll band after he saw Oasis live. He decided on not doing a synth pop band and decided on rock and roll with keyboards.
I love The Killers and Oasis.
The Killers will never be as big or as important to their generation as Oasis were but The Killers are amazing.
@@HEAVYDIAPER they shout their way through every song, plus they are an embarrassing pair of twat who can't say a full sentence without cursing ,Liam on Graham Norton was cringe tv!!!! The other guests were mortified at the way he was going on, acting like a teenager at his age ,total embarrassment
Why did this make me cry. I want my life back.
Same.
Me too
Why did this comment make me cry 😢
@@xXRenegadeXx because we all want our lives back before COVID. Life will never be the same, I fear.
Me too. Tired of killing time. Just wanna feel alive again.
Imagine being an artist that gets to stand on a stage in front of this many people who just want to sing your song with you. How good it must feel to know something you've created resonated so strongly with so many people.
1:21 you know he wanted to cry because the crowd sang it back with such passion, music is truly amazing!!
I guess you don't get sick of singing the verse 4 times in a row 😂
Open up my eager eyes cuz im mr.brightside. I think this part is what does it because he really sound the opposite in the lyrics :D thats my take on it ^^
No one gets sick of this song period 😂
No it's the best part
Brandon is a true showman. He is awesome. And that drummer is freaking great
Yeah
see them in LA, California!! the drummer freaking killed it!! loved every moment of it!
You gotta love Ronnie Vanucci Jr ... We all do and fuck it I'll call him one of the best rock drummers of our generation
@@carsanmar13 He's good, but he's not Neil Peart, the GOAT !.....RIP BOSS 😥😭
Damn, this really is a great crowd. I'm sure this is a big moment for a lot of these people, but when it cuts to the audience's POV, it's not a sea of phone screens. Just refreshing to see so many people choosing to be completely in the moment and sing at the top of their lungs, sharing an experience with the strangers around them instead of sharing on social media.
This just a usual Scottish crowd
Another day in the office for us Scots 😉
Thats the biggest compliment a singer or band could get from their fans.
Glasgow fans, you guys are awesome!!!
Glasgow crowd...take a bow
Gladly
Things we excel at, having the best crowds for any event
@@jhennessy Scottish
@@hollymillerx4335 me to hen, best night ever x
@@jhennessy Glasgow is in Scotland 🏴
Feeling a little down - all you need to do is listen to this, simply awesome and the Glasgow fans take a bow, you were fantastic
We always have the best crowds!
@@Matthewmcg22 they r good incredible but Argentina is nuts so u might have competition
@@Matthewmcg22 I love. Glasgow. I spent 1998 there :)
@@carmenb6431 Always welcome back! 🏴
As he made his way home after some of those early band rehearsals, Brandon Flowers would have dreamt to himself "One day...". This was that day.
underrated
How right you are @Paul Holder, this was their defining moment without a doubt 👍🏻
Probably the only songs in the world that you can play in a UK pub and the entire pub is singing it
First two minutes: Aww this is a nice intimate version.
2:37: *Falls off chair*
😂😂😂
Here from DFV
Glasgow is honestly one of the best crowds ever. Hands down.
I was in the crowd that night it was something very special, band definitely felt it. People really do make Glasgow!
🧢
Me coming out the womb: “c-coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing just fine”
I don’t care what The Killers have accomplished in their careers before or since this performance. This had to be one of the coolest moments of their lives, not just their careers. Doesn’t hurt that it’s one of my favorite songs of all-time by anyone. Lol So awesome and simply amazing! Well done!
Imagine sitting in your room writing these lyrics and then years later having 100,000 people in another country sing them back to you with so much passion. 🙌
The band understands the song isn’t really theirs-it belongs to the fans. Very cool
Brandon said when he first came to the UK that Manchester and Liverpool were pretty good crowds in smaller venues at first then he hit the king tut and was like wow these people are awesome but scary enthusiastic for our songs and he said Scottish crowds are like no other he's seen for their energy is 10,000 times bigger than the rest of UK
Brandon was right, no one does it like us! Scots crowds are legendary, no matter the Band or Genre’
Funnily enough, right after this set, he left and went straight to king tuts to play a set. As it’s his favourite venue. Or “room” he calls it.
I can’t wait to COVID to be over and I can sing “coming out of my cage, and I’ve been doing just fine”
Yes ! Stay strong, the world will get there again
I'd like to imagine the moment he realized was being out sung by the crowd ( they were over powering his vocals and sound check volume configuration) he had to have been in a bit shock and took the few moments to reflect on the impact his career has on the world. That's worth a few minutes to catch your breath and letting the crowd be in control. Artists vibe off that energy 💯
The moment he went on stage and opened his mouth he knew he had to let the crowd take over because they weren't gonna stop singing!! I've been to alot of concerts that were jam packed (including woodstock 99 in Rome NY) and this is the LARGEST crowd participation ever (other then queen)
Absolutely incredible. What a moment @1:20 - one of the history books. Lead singer was obviously touched by that. Wish the camera didn't cut away from him. He's a performer and a natural one that is, but that moment he was caught by emotion and surprise. Amazing performance and amazing crowd.
This is goosebumps 1:20
Init. Like a lot more than anything else
He's such a fun and excellent frontman :)
I have to say as a 45yr old Nurse who is slightly pi$$ed off with life at the moment this version and Mr BFgolden suit have cheered me right up! 👌🏼
The national anthem of every single student in the UK.
Honestly can say I’ve never heard a crowd sing back a song like this one. Crazy!! I bet he had goosebumps the entire time.
It really is a good, fun tune to scream!!
Scottish crowds do it best!!!🏴
Glasgow crowds are the best in the world
This song is like their unofficial national anthem, it topped their charts for some insane amount of time
DFV sent me.
DFV sent me!
This is the closest will get to world peace. The song really is THAT good. A crowd of people coming together getting excited and singing in sync lyric by lyric.
deep fucking value
This is the way
Ronnie is such a good drummer, man. Incredibly underrated.
There's never been a great band without a great drummer.
The crowd owned this historic performance
Brandon is a world class performer, he acknowledges, appreciates, and incorporates the crowd into the performance. Amazing, what a concert, what a crowd, what a singer!
This is why no matter what problems the city has I will always be proud to say I am a Glaswegian. No matter the venue, from the Apollo, the Barrowlands, Wah Wah hut, Garage or the Hydro, if you deliver the crowd are behind you. If you go at it half arsed you better have good security.
I am also Glaswegian and just read you comment & you are totally spot on!
Unbelievable! One of the greatest bands ever!!
I sneaked into this
Id die to be a part of this crowd 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I was there 🔥
@@bendalziel2004 lucky 😩
I was there to. What a night
Join us this summer 😀
1:20 when he gives the kiss to the crowd. Legendary, iconic, Brandon knows he has the crowd in the palm of his hands. Truly amazing showmanship.
The drummer has pure talent right there d'ya see him
Ronnie is SO underrated. So many drummers neglect the pedal hat and there he is casually stomping eighth notes chiks at the end.
Roaring Kitty aka DFV aka the GOAT brought me here. Oh how many years will pass and somebody one day will be like wow I learned about that DEEP FUCKIN VALUE in history
Buy and HODL GME. This is the way!
Same
1:20 lets the crowd sing and his reaction was priceless
Who else started headbobbing in time with the crowd and smiling uncontrollably
The crowd 💥💯🔥, 2024...❤
The crowd UNDERSTOOD the assignment
Anyone else here after 1.5 years of the pandemic and sobbing?
This concert saved my life
Well you know who sent me....
Scotland never fails to impress
This is the Glasgow crowd. Best in the world.
Hats off to Mr Flowers for managing to stay faithful to his wife after all the women and men who must be throwing themselves at him daily.
What sort of stupid comment is that?
@@seanlowe4785 it’s funny relax
y’all fr can’t take a joke 😭
@@occlumens The way it was written was not a joke. Just a bellend comment
@@seanlowe4785 it absolutely was written as a joke??? it’s a comment to point out that he’s attractive lol
Imagine him standing there and the crowd singing back the words he wrote
at that point its really not even his.
Watching in may 2021, I got goosebumps with that crowd singing. If I was an artist like that, would be impossible not be emotional in a moment like this...
This literally broke my heart... It's been one year now without any concerts... I miss it so god damn much!
the UK loves this song more than anyone
Look up Michigan Stadium singing it
WELL DONE GLASGOW!!!
Respect from NYC ✌️🤘✌️
thanks
🏴🇺🇸
I love how that crowd absolutely took over that song
God! This is even better than the Glastonbury 2019 version.
Hello Apes! 🦍
Lord and savior DFV brought you here
Just stumbled on this after watching a bunch if crowd singing videos and I think even the singer was shocked at their volume right off the bat lol.
This should be the first song after corona in a stadium
Gamestop..I love you all
This is the way
Love you brother!
@@erincarmody8562 Enjoy the ride!!
Hello apes!
A crowd like this deserve an encore, at least three more songs
The crowd understood the assignment
even you can notice how Brandon is amazed when the whole crowd sing along with him and it´s just incredible
every fucking humanbeing in this crowd is so happy to be part of it
Scottish people are class
THIS GUY IS FOCKEN FABULOUSSSSSSSSSS AND GLASGOW PEOPLE ARE THE BEST ON EARTH and i'm from Canada !
dang. he was like half into the first line of the song and the crowds picked up in full force. must be the best feeling in the world for any live band.
The song that unites everyone born in my decade, no matter where it's played 😂 I have scream sung this in pubs with complete strangers. This is the sound of my teenage years ♥
He should’ve just sat down and enjoyed the song from a fans point of view.
Hes like....
This is their moment.
Not mine.
Ill just live in it.
One of my favourite things in the world will be seeing how genuinely happy singers/bands get when the crowd just absolutely belts their own songs back at them.
Check out Gerry cinnamon doing “belter” at TRSNMT, he starts the song and the crowd just belts it back at him😂😂
He looks so proud of the crowd and I totally understand, this crowd is amazing!! This gives me so much hope for the future after COVID!
