The Killers – "When You Were Young" (2006)
2009/04/24
I saw The Killers in concert a few months ago, and they were awesome. I might not have gone if it wasn't the only thing G seemed to want to do. I bet G would see The Killers in concert every day if it was a possibility. G plus others (who will remain nameless… no no, not me, but you know who you are out there) have even fantasized about stalking Brandon Flowers down in Vegas. I'm pretty sure that given the opportunity, G would leave me for him. Me… I'd rather meet with Ronnie and go over how the hell he plays some of the beats he does.
But seriously though, The Killers is probably one of the best bands I've picked up this decade. I love most of the songs. Each album is distinct, and each is worthy of the "Album of the Week / Must Own Albums" list I have only just begun. In concert, they are probably one the best I have seen, if not THE best. Sure Brandon can come off as a little cocky or stupid (Exhibit A) and Mark, Dave and Ronnie barely speak, but they are all excellent musicians and artists in my book, and Flowers is truly an 'entertainer'.
This song off of Sam's Club is solid. I will surely be posting more of The Killers in the future, so I'll save my breath for now. Enjoy!

Hey! Just because I made G safari hat flair does not mean I actually intend to stalk Brandon Flowers with her. Not unless she agrees we can then go to LA and stalk Robert Pattinson. O:D

Oh she'll probably agree. I was wondering why she was stockpiling rope, blindfolds, and mild sedatives. And here I was getting my hopes up. Alas.
