"Smile Like You Mean It" lyrics
Save some face, you know you've only got one
Change your ways while you're young
Boy, one day you'll be a man
Oh, girl, he'll help you understand
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Looking back at sunsets on the East Side
We lost track of the time
Dreams aren't what they used to be
Something's slide by so carelessly
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
And someone is calling my name (from the back of the restaurant)
And someone is playing a game (in the house that I grew up in)
And someone will drive her around down the same streets that I did
On the same streets that I did
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Smile like you mean it
Oh, no, oh, no, no, no
Oh, no, oh, no, no, no
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no...

For those saying nothing changed, didn't listen to 2:35 on. The panic and fear of the realisation that their partner is with somebody new, and the sadness it brings, just doesn't get conveyed in the original.
it's unfair how good this is
This is such a great cover
Does this mean there's an entire cover album coming? This + the Blink cover has me very excited
I would love this 👌🏼
Does this mean there’s a entire cover album coming and the blink cover has me very excited
💯
Gold
Amazing cover!!!
good to see theyre putting that Prophet 6 + Grandmother to good use :]
Damn all these incorrect takes. I love the original, it’s my favourite Killers song but this one does do things differently. They didn’t take many creative liberties, no, though I prefer when I cover stays true to the original but modernizes things a bit.
This cover mixes a lot better in my opinion. The guitars are far more crunchy and prevalent. I find there’s more harmonizing on this one too. The original is far too pronounced in the synths but this one seems to balance it well with the guitars. The original is also more bass driven. The bass carries that song, and while I typical like that I feel this cover balances things a bit better. This one also has more of a crescendo? Maybe that’s just me?
I dunno, I lived it, showed up on my Discover Weekly and I played it about 5 times in a row. Is it better than the original? Probably not but it’s not a bad cover by any means.
I'm not a fan of blink182. But every cover they've done so far is perfect, especially funeral. I've not long since lost my 5 year old nephew to cancer and that cover hits hard. R.I.P Arthur you was a braver person than I could ever be. 💔
What? Is this a cover done by Blink182?!?
Better than the original? Very close.
It's actually pretty amazing hey. I usually don't care much for covers but SLS have absolutely nailed this and then some more. The ending is top notch.
This sounds exactly like the original, in a bad way. I can already listen to the version by the Killers... it's twenty years old at this point.
Ehh, they didn’t do anything unique with this cover to make it their own. Everything about it is just trying to copy the original from instrumentation down to the way it’s sung. It’s well done but boring at best. There’s no reason to listen to this over the original. Shoulda put their own twist on it instead of trying to sound as close to the killers as possible.
Yeah? Well, you know, that's just like uh, your opinion, man.
I disagree. I think this builds up to way more of a crescendo than the original and having Dylan belt the lyrics out towards the end is very much in their own style.
You are wrong. The last 30s alone
@@martymcfly5528 dude he literally sings like he is imitating the killers. He accents the words in the exact same way. Digging a little deeper for all of 15 secs doesn’t change that the singing is copying everything about the original. Like I said, it’s well done, but it’s a boring, sterile cover. No one is going to listen to this song who isn’t already a mega fan of Spanish Love Songs. Just the reality of what it is. If you’re doing a cover it should be a twist on the original, not just an exercise in production by trying to replicate what was already done which is what this is.
@@mgschwartz This is the first song I heard by them, made me a fan instantly. I feel this channels more of the Joy Division and New Order influence already in the original and most of The Killers early work. But that's just me. Glad it came up and I gave it a listen, personally.
