The Killers - A Dustland Fairytale (With Lyrics)

[wovenbean49208]

how can you make such a ggggggoooooooooaaaaaaaaadddddd­ddd fucking song its pretty much impossible

.

[AllyEquestrian]

This song reminds me of my Cousin who died in a car crash 2 years ago </3

[TheBlessedEquestrian]

@AllyEquestrian Hey Ally, I love this song, I think it's always been my favourite song. I'm sorry to hear about your cousin. :(

[Mcr4girL]

One of the most beautiful songs ever sung and written.

[TheEnluminure]

I'm in love with the lyrics.

[jarosikzero]

One day all comments on YouTube will be 'disabled' because we all end up fighting the fuck out of each other.

[jarosikzero]

"Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's

such a bitter form of refuge."

I cry every time I hear these words.

[rainbowkiss100]

i can totally relate to this song seeing as my mom died of cancer... the words are so poignant' "and everybody needs you..". so so sad :(

[CreepyBacon]

@rainbowkiss100 This song is about going on and living on, surviving, Past cancer. So the fact your mother has kicked the bucket should mean you cannot relate to this at all. Cause at the time of writing this his mother was very much alive and kicking.

[rainbowkiss100]

@CreepyBacon you've missed my point, i can relate cause when my mother was ALIVE this is how i felt, and his mother DIDNT survive so how can it conclusively be about survival? and how dare you use that term about anyones mother let alone mine.. "kicked the bucket"!? learn some respect you fucking idiot! i sincerely hope you go through it too and learn some compassion.. then you wouldnt be so quick to refer to someones death as flippantly as "kicking the bucket"... wanker.

[CreepyBacon]

@rainbowkiss100 lololololololol.

[rainbowkiss100]

@CreepyBacon laugh away... i dont care :)

[CreepyBacon]

@rainbowkiss100 You've upset me now. Not cool.

[Bomber1234WusHere]

This song has an effect on some people where onc they hear it, they cant stop listening to it.

[demoBLASTed]

amazing song if you can understand it

tragic song if you know somebody who can relate to it

heartbreaking song if you can relate to it.

[Fr0mScr4tch]

wat ever happened to raponsle?

[SomethingBlue1342]

this is one of the only songs that can still make me cry

[sarydactl]

It's funny how you don't know you need a message until you get it. Thank you!

[UnifiedPerfection]

01:45 YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH

[Mullixhi]

(: Beautiful. <3 Love it,, so sad <3

[UnifiedPerfection]

I wouldn't dream so high

[tortolification]

"Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's

such a bitter form of refuge.

Why don't you know the kingdom's under

siege and everybody needs you"

I actually cried at this part. Such an amazing song.

[notastampcollector]

"I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he's

getting ready for the showdown."

Devil, you are about to get pwned by Brandon Flowers.

[oxbetterleftunsaidxo]

"out here the good girls die". for some reason I always think of those mean girls in middle school that used to be best friends... oh well. I LOVE THE KILLERS!

[nikrunner18]

God gives us hope but we still fear what we don't know.

[315536pw]

out here the good girls die!!!

[mumfordfreak48]

the killers, your music will never die. no matter what time, what song, what type of beat, or lyrics, or songs are "in", you will always be as amazing, and as beautiful as the day you first started.

[RhymesWithSammich]

I've tried to write this comment about fifty times, but I still haven't found anything that tells how incredibly beautiful this is.

[PPiTTislakatamia]

''Guinness world record'' of most people tapping there toes at once

[autobotreject]

Really this song is a painting crafted by Bob Ross from Heaven with nothing but emotion and is so vivid you can hear it telling you a story. The killers found it and did it a cover of it. Tue Story.

[Dweller101Vault]

This was my wedding song, and it'll be my song for my funeral as well.

Killers, you change lives!

[ilovezimmy17]

:3

[ladysnuffel]

beautiful song xxx

[burtv1610]

cried..

[BestzombieLoL]

@burtv1610 Same Here ...

[icychillgrill3]

Trolling! Trollololololol

[Drakzorn]

Love this song. You got a nice pair o lungs, Mr. Flowers. Props to your band, bro. Did a damn fine job.

[deathdefier117]

this song is awesome!!! :) its my third favorite song!

[RadioInspirationMvmt]

☀ Brandon Flowers wrote this song about his parents falling in love, but then everything falling apart. "Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep"--this is Brandon telling his mom not to give up on life, especially after she was diagnosed with cancer.

☀ I mean, right now I could be listening to some great "shawty shawty lemme f*** you" sorta rap...... but I don't want to.

☀ Thumbs up for music that has meaning. You know, a message.

☀ Join the RADIO INSPIRATION MOVEMENT.

[superdude7003]

@RadioInspirationMvmt thank you

[superdude7003]

@RadioInspirationMvmt and in the end the dreams alright :)

[LuceAndEmmyShow]

LOVE <3

[jkelly33887]

You may want to double check your lyrics you got that copy and pasted from. Cause a lot of it is wrong. Just a heads up, none-the-less great post.

Excellent music.

~Cheers~

[bls5160]

@Starglasses102 You can say that again!

[kyradoodle]

omg stop the fighting guys your disrespecting the song take it to a beiber video

[justforthelulzzz]

@kyradoodle

SMD bitch.

[MessengerOfDreams]

Also, I love being the one to create a gap in a flame war. :D

[MessengerOfDreams]

This song really wells me up. It's just something to see one of the most offbeat, odd people writing something so emotional. Like watching a friend, y'know?

[MONSTERcolton]

i cried listening to this

[Mike0559]

nice vid! love this song dude. you should rly fix ur lyrics tho lol

[justforthelulzzz]

this is the only song on the CD i like.. hot fuss was so much better

[thecrazycowgirls0wyo]

my science teacher listens to the killers all the time. he got me interested in this stuff

[justforthelulzzz]

@thecrazycowgirls0wyo get some friends teachers pet

[kyradoodle]

@justforthelulzzz thats just mean

[Buzzahhh]

is it just me? because i cant stop listening to this

[rosebird99]

this has become my fav song

[MyToxicLullabys]

This song makes me cry. It's just so beautiful. <3 The Killers are the most amazing band in my opinion.

[justforthelulzzz]

@MyToxicLullabys pussy

[MyToxicLullabys]

@justforthelulzzz

lol.

[Snowflakebleed011]

I heard this whole song a few days, the consequence of wanting to hear all their music. I am astonished. As much as I love their music & the stunning lyrics, this is the most compelling song I've ever heard by any artist, period.

[TomDustlandFairytail]

Great Song.

[justforthelulzzz]

@TomDustlandFairytail i heard you lost your virginity to a dog?

[SuperLoudNinjas]

@justforthelulzzz Fag

[justforthelulzzz]

@SuperLoudNinjas

If that's you in your profile pic, you are in no position to call somebody a fag. Fucking homo.

[SuperLoudNinjas]

@justforthelulzzz Well know what, at least i have the balls to put a picture of myself as my profile picture. SO YOU have no room to be talking you little wimpy ass bitch.

[justforthelulzzz]

@SuperLoudNinjas

Streaks of blonde? Really? Fucking faggot...

[SuperLoudNinjas]

@justforthelulzzz Actually its not streaks of blonde, it was brown at one point. I dyed it pitch black, and that it with the brown growing back. But dont let me rain on your little "Runescape" game faggot. Its pussy ass faggots like you that play WoW and Runescape, get a fucken life dipshit.

[justforthelulzzz]

@SuperLoudNinjas

umadbro? Don't be mad because I can play games like runescape and still have a life, yet you are obviously uncomfortable with your sexuality because you defend it over the internet.

Yeah kid. We all wish we were you. /sarcasm

[SuperLoudNinjas]

@justforthelulzzz Dude, actually i'm not gay. If you want to accuse me of being gay over the internet. Then be my guest, but only hides the fact of your actual sexuality. So take your dads dick out of yours ass and just step away.

[bluemax7111]

@justforthelulzzz I believe that the common term for a person of your nature is referred to as an "Internet Troll"

[Southparknscrubs]

You see. This is WHY I listen to The killers. Not only can I stop listening to the songs, but they have real fucking meaning behind them. "This is your life" is about a hooker who has a crappy life, and the song addresses her to never give up. I love how the killers aren't only about hot women, or a relationship, or drugs, or partying like all modern crap. The lyrics have real meaning and this song… it just gets to me.

[Snowflakebleed011]

@Southparknscrubs this is too weird. I am from Colorado, stuck in L.A., an artist who naturally loves SP,and I'm working with a writer who's taking the Doctor Road of studies, that regularly watches Scrubs. There damn sure still is magic in the midnight sun.

[fireworks254]

she lookin for her night gown

[yeahtoast08]

-_- The lyrics are still wrong.

It's not:

"And the sky moves slow" It's: And the sky won't snow

[masterdouw1]

i cry everytime i listen to it i luv it so much :)

[1997Titanicgirl]

I think I know why they are called 'The Killers', they kill people with their music !! ;)

[lusterdragon02]

Do you people know this is suppose to be a sad song

[Bunji567]

Why doesnt youtube just automatically replay songs like this?

[maddyisfudgeingbeast]

he played this before I left to go back home....I miss him so much </3 MW

[1122ga]

this song reminds me of the day  i meat my gf we where both rocking to this song <3

[Misscork17]

One of the most unappreciated songs of our generation.

[lovemuseband125]

This song makes me cry every time.

[craigk195]

@lovemuseband125 watch the video its the best video ever as it fits the mood of the song

[anteaterable]

i wish the rest of the album wasn't so disappointing :(

[ungue2]

@anteaterable The killers wanted to try something different. I thought they did a pretty good job for the most of it. And you got to admit. Some of the lyrics in day and age are unbeatable.

[ricola30011996]

i didnt rape or break the dislike buttom,

couldnt give less of a shit how many people disliked this,

im watching this in 2011, what of it?

this song is fucking beatiful, enough said

[satsuki26]

Sometimes I listen to this song and it's pure beauty makes me cry.

[Sonicxsnow1245]

this is so awesome it should be the national anthem. maybe then would i sing it during games

[Jrod5991]

@Sonicxsnow1245 So you're a terrorist?

[Sonicxsnow1245]

@Jrod5991 lol no i just hate singing

[lovemuseband125]

@Jrod5991 That doesn't mean he's a terrorist. xD

[Sonicxsnow1245]

31 people saw the devil wrapping up his hands

[ungue2]

@Sonicxsnow1245 that dose not make any sense.

[ungue2]

@sonicxsnow1245

[jbvg56]

[Zoeycookie]

THumbs up if u thank haterz need to get a life

[TheArmandit0]

2010 the cinescape brought me here

[TeEnReBeL100]

i love this song. it's just so...well, beautiful. i mean, you don't get better than this. it's just not possible.

[PanimatePlox]

Apparently the song is about his mother's battle with cancer. Holy crap, it's just so beautiful.

[xXxSaKuRaSaSuKexXx2]

<3

[ThisIsEnglaaand]

repeat x forever

[Dumdumdomino]

This song is gorgeous.

[noramoreland1]

this blows dogs for quarters.

[ashleykatt1]

31 people are cunts.

[bls5160]

@ashleykatt1 It's best when you don't acknowledge them in any way.

[JuliaGrace96]

I love this song!!!

The Killers are amazing!!!<33

[imPathogenic]

such sad lyrics to such a beautiful song, really rips you up..

[DeedleDeedleDumplin]

Beautiful. Thanx for the upload.

[vivalabadyear]

[maddyisfudgeingbeast]

"Cinderella in a party dress she

was looking for a nightgown.

I saw the devil wrapping up his hands, he's

getting ready for the showdown.

I saw the minute that I turned away, I got

my money on a pawn tonight."

[boddus]

Mr. Flowers! You Rock!!

[MidnightIvory]

You guys don't need to break the replay button just go to the address bar and after it says youtube just add "repeat" and it instantly replays itself on any video ;D

[vivalabadyear]

stay golden ponyboy....



[nibel77]

@vivalabadyear Nature's first green is gold, her hardest hue to hold...

[SqueezyBottle]

I love how this song makes you visualize everything he sings about.

[superskummel]

2.40 - goosepimples! One of the most beautiful music climaxes I know.

[chabiiz95]

31 people get killed by cinderella



[kumikyoku123]

i love this song it really reminds me of this girl

[ArchuletaObsessed]

i love this song., but can someone give me a bit more of the meaning?

[crossy247]

@ArchuletaObsessed its about how brandons mum and dad met

[linkrocker1]

And I thought Viva La Vida was inspirational.

[ArchuletaObsessed]

@linkrocker1 amen.

[gauravgupta92795]

best song. dont even talk to me

[seejoeyrun]

I live in las vegas, where they're from.

this song, captures the essence of everything that happens out here in the middle of the desert perfectly. So. fucking. perfect.

[charliewuu]

the most inspirational song ive ever heard. makes me want to cry but still make a difference in life

[Trogdorgirl46]

Funny not only was I brought here cuz I'm a fan of the killers

but also came here cuz of 'Life as a zombie' by Articfox XD

[Enigmenace]

@Trogdorgirl46 its Arcadefox not Articfox

[92benno92]

Moon river what'd you do to me?

I can restart the song after that ;)

[ledhead504]

"He looked just like you'd want him to, some kind of slick chrome American prince." Those are some of the most powerful lyrics ever. I really like a girl, but she prefers my friend who looks infinitely better than me, just like some kind of fairytale prince with long brown hair and looks like everyone else, like you'd want him to look.

[KrizpyKilla]

31 people missed the like button

they will burn alive for said mistake

[92benno92]

@KrizpyKilla

No they won't. 

[matthewnoland]

[rubberkillerducky]

31 people need to get their head checked !

[xdeardeanna]

[Cherrysmile231]

29 people went to sleep, their bitter refuge

[tommeyify]

wow they put more emotion in 3:50 than i had in my whole life

and im insensitive :)

[ThePlasticBox1234]

just class here. awesome :)

[parkxi]

Blue Jean Serenade...moon river.

[drummrboy101]

I was recently told by a friend that this was written shortly after the death of Brnadon's mother. That makes the song that much more intense. This has been one of my favorites ever since I first heard it last year.

[rocksteady525]

@drummrboy101 If that's true then this song totally goes with this short story I wrote. I used the line "Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's such a bitter form of refuge," to foreshadow the death of the mother in my story.

[whydoyouwastemytimee]

@drummrboy101 The song was written before his mothers death, but it was written about the romance she and Brandon's father shared. It's only been played a handful of times live since she passed away i believe. Amazing song <3

[crossmyheart1996]

screw meth and pot! the killers are my drug

[crossmyheart1996]

screw being addicted to drugs, the killers is my drug <3

[AwesomeBlueDrumGurl]

I'm singing this song for a solo audition for choir. <3

[jfrsnjhnsn]

@AwesomeBlueDrumGurl I'd love to hear a girl sing this... YOUTUBE IT!!!!!!

[rlp0908]

I love this song but its sad at the sametime 

[PsychoticStarr]

29 people don't believe in Fairytales. :/

[brookskatlynn]

beautiful :')

[neonmizzoutiger5]

@justtakeiteasy I read in an interview with Brandon that they'd be back together and working on their next album this May. Last week I saw on their fan site that they'd be headlining a festival Austria so we should be getting more info soon!

[ArcaneShadows13]

0:00, now there is a repeat button =)

[jfrsnjhnsn]

@ArcaneShadows13 nice.

[dashboardmenagerie]

Brandon Flowers' voice is a gift.

[neonmizzoutiger5]

@dashboardmenagerie The Killers are a gift.

[PinkDumbledore]

This is... beautiful. I honestly don't know how else do describe this song. It lights up every part of me(:

[florentia04]

"Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep, it's

such a bitter form of refuge." Amazing lyrics

[angieXC]

This song was for his mom :)

[wonderwoman28]

how did i survive without this song?

[stelistul50]

Thumbs up if you broke the replay button =)

[twinblademasta]

@stelistul50 YOU BROKE IT!? I STILL NEED TO USE THAT THING MAN!

[ivanramirozamorano]

sborooooooooooooooooooooo!un n

[alejandro6588]

[TheKewl212]

1026 people have loving mothers... make that 1027

[TheKewl212]

1026 people have loving mothers but 29 sad people dont

[rainingcloud689]

This song gives me chills.

[emilyjanelouise]

i slow danced to this song with my bf to this song. i love it.

[questcecestlepoint]

i think i find the most powerful part just the WAY he sings it. you believe he really cares in what he's singing in and imagine he's probably cried a good few times.
