The first time at the start it hurts your ears but at the second time you play it it is totally awesome and maybe its not my favorite song but its actually pretty good
he was embarassed to write a song about getting drunk? compared to all the rappers and pop singers you hear on the radio no adays, using alcohol as propoganda, and making it seem cool.... i think that is really sweet :)
it would be really easy to filter out that reversed snare (that's what it sounds like) and replace it with something else melodic or percussive yourself.
jesus christ people get a clue. the scratchy background and down voice set the mood for the song. its all symbolism. like in the song a crippling blow, when he screams "a crippling blow!!" there is a sort of electronic breakdown noise shortly after, it symbolises the feelings of the person in the song. this ones scratchy probably because of the thoughts running through his head. it kinda sounds similar to having a headache. hes got nowhere to turn but the bottle.
@marwood03 Yeah, definitely. Plus, it`s good for the band because the songs would already be written and all...which would make the album take much less time to produce. ^.^
I don't listen to this song enough. The Killers need to record an album with all the demos, I love every song they've ever made, but I think the demos are the best.
I love it! He actually sounds drunk while singing this (I can even sort of picture it, very amusing :). I read below some people think the shsh sh sh part sounds like sandpaper, funny, but it always sounded like someone sniffing to me, it's the same sound!
ok so itunes sucks ass, where can I can i download this and not get a computer virus (limewire doesn't count, it killed my computer a few months ago)?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
hahaha brandon flowers.. ahh. I used to think he was so cute. I saw the killers at the deck the hall ball last year. Now I'm over it. Boo killers suck.
His family is all LDS, and he has recently become active again. He quit drinking and smoking... so he's emberassed for writing a song about being "trashed".
why is everybody complaining about the quality of the song and how dirty it sounds. That's kind of the point isn't it? The song is called get trashed for goodness song. I love how raw it sounds and think it is a great song
First thoughts were what the hell is that grating sound,and why wont it go away. Then the lyrics and singing really struck a chord with me.I am now officially hooked. itunes purchase here I come.
I've realize that the "B" sides and the unreleased songs are very different from the concep of the albums. Like sawdust, many of those song wouldn't realy fit in any of the other records, and I like that. The hard part is kepping track of all of those, jojojojojojo
Definitely. But I think it's good. They all provide a little taste of what the Killers might bring us in the future. I'd love to see a smaller, intimate album from the boys next, perhaps with re-recordings of songs like this, Replaceable, Desperate and Where Is She? and whatever new stuff they can come up with.
so true. but its a catch 22 you lose or you lose - reinvent your sound and you have changed too much, stay with the same sound and your a 1 trick pony. im glad that hot fuss sams town and day and age are so different lol
Omg. I am a victim yeah (their official fanclub which you have to PAY for), I have a t-shirt, tons of posters and have been to the o2 arena to see them and I'm seeing them again at hyde park BUT this song is awful! Still only one bad song can't hurt can it. I should mamke it absolutely clear that I am in love with each member of the Killers and go into some wierd trance when I listen to their songs (which is everyday)
yeah, onya im a victim as well, im sitting here in my killers shirt right beside my wall of killers posters and i love this song, it really isn't a sign of how big of a fan you are though, we all have our different tastes in music, s'all subjective dude :)
well im sure theyre gonna do another album, but yeah some people have heard that they're going to do an album of all covers next, but its not for sure yet.
well they've said they wanted to take a break after the day and age tour to spend time with their families, in my personal opinion, im guessing they wont start recording until 11/12, but who knows!
