Yo, I'm in the seventh grade and I've grown up with Pink Floyd, they're a classic. But the Killers (whom I loved equally) are asiring to become such. Just sayin' I know my shit for a 13-year-old chick.
What's up with the hostility? It's not 6th grade (unless you are in 6th grade, sorry kids.) e.g: Pink Floyd l vs. The Killers. This would have been fun at the show. The element of surprise is lost here. If some younger fans get introduced to Floyd and dig deeper into than they would otherwise, what a cool side effect.
@mrbunghole It was obviously live, and audiences love that stuff so I'd hardly say it was a waste of time. As far as I know they've only ever put 3 covers on an album but they've covered a bunch more. Plus those 3 songs were on Sawdust so it barely counts.
@mrbunghole I actually really like this cover and I wouldn't consider it to be a waste of time listening to it. I really wish everyone could know that when The Killers cover a song it's more of a tribute to the band/artist because most of the songs they've covered were by some of their biggest influences. Pink Floyd is my second favorite band, by the way.
@JoshMufc101 Are you kidding me? I'm a BIG fan of Pink Floyd and I think the Killers did an awesome job on this song! Brandon's voice is nearly perfect for this and the guitar and rest of the music, fantastic! They added their little style to it, I'm sure David Gilmour and the rest of Pink Floyd would be proud. Maybe you're just being stubborn, a lot of fans are.
@JoshMufc101 The music is harder and slighly different, skippy. I have both songs so quit being a dick just because you probably have something against The Killers like most people who are into the classic rock era.
quit being a dick? lol just because i don't like it, the killers are an ok band, mediocre lyrics, catchy riffs thats about it, there songs don't really have any meaning to them but i don't have something against them, i just don't think there all that good.
this is fabulous! i keep playing it over and over again cuz itz way too short... :( but the original by pink floyd was like, all music and near the end they sang. i love brandon's voice. its all i need to survive!!!!! <3
You know, I thought it was really good. The thing is, Brandon's vocals don't really capture the essence of pain and suffering that Waters does...don't think Brandon has enough painful life experience...but man, that guitar sounded RICH!!!! Way to go, Dave!!!!
It doesn't mean that someone can't TRY to sing time. I think is a good try. Just a try. I don't think Brandon sees him as David Gilmour (ok, he also thinks to be god...) Peace.
The Killers are really good though...i havent really gotten into weezer too much but The Killers I think are on another level. You should give them a chance
Do they not have anything decent of their own to play? Are you kidding? Listen to Sawdust, that's their B-sides and a lot of those songs are better than most that other bands put on their official albums. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, it's called paying homage

Now, I hate the killers. First Dire Straits, then David Bowie and now Pink Floyd! Do they not have anything decent of their own to play instead of an endless list of degrading covers. one word - sacrilege.
wow you hate the killers because they appreciate other bands? COOL. thats a good reason to hate a band, especially when the four CD's they have released are amazing and filled with creative deep lyrics.
i think this is awesome.i have no idea y u guys r dissing it! brandons vocals are amazing in this. the whole thing blows my mind! nice vid annamaria285
this song is amazing by both pink floyd and the killers. i personaly think that roger waters approached it in a better way than brandon flowers though
but it doesn't matter, there's plenty of people who haven't even listened to floyd, even I'm too young....lol! The killers are just singing....and they're wonderful so celebrate that,,,they not hurting anyone....everyone is too quick to critasize these days...go with the flow..lol!
@Turkelparkelton It is true, but they haven't said when. I'm hoping it's this year while there is a hiatus and to go along with Brandon's solo "Flamingo".
There is no full MP3 of this, I heard it on 101.9 in New York and the Killers did this portion only as an impromptu ending of one of their own songs live for this recording.
Sweet! The best concert i ever went to was Rodger watters (Pink floyds lead singer), and just last year i started getting into the killers (now i love there work) Im on the look out for when there next gig is but io hear there not touring for a while! oh well.. guess il just get the new CD..
omg i love his voice!!! it sounds different from all the other albums. it sound like the serious sam's town mixed together with the little boy hot fuss. I LOVE IT!! i cant wait till the new album comes out!
You cant mistake Brandon's voice anywhere. He sounds exceptionally good in this one.I swear he gets better and better every year. thanks for posting<3 .....
