  • Conor > The Killers. That is a fact. But The Killers are still great. They were probably sitting around listening to Bright Eyes awesomeness and were like "This song is the shit!!" And then re-made it because they liked it so much. Conor remade a lot of songs. Does that mean he's an asshole and has ruined those songs completely? Noooo... It means that he likes the song therefore, he sings it.

  • wow... i really hope the killers feal bad about this, this is helping with the down fall of music. A perfect song with instruments that take talent to play with the best voice of the last 10 years, and they make it a fast beat keyboard annimated bull shit hip hop song, lost all respect for the killers with this

  • Oh my god, I am Conor Oberst's biggest fan. And stop fucking saying he is folk and country. This is really pisssing me off. Like alot. This song is absolutly fucking gorgeous. Everything single one of this songs make my soul fly and his lyrics bring me tears. Just because his voice isnt auto tuned and just because he doesnt have sparkly tingly beats in his back ground doesnt mean this bull shit is better.

    " If i had someone else's voice i could have been a famous singer" Bright eyes.

  • .. This is like a smack in the face to bright eyes.. (: the killers feed my soul -3

  • This is easily my favorite killers song. Right next to spaceman and somebody told me.

  • Where does this song come from? i've never heard it before =) Anyhoo love the video =)

  • @Darkmatter58203 It's from the 'spaceman' single :) Awesome, awesome, awesome!

    @rootieboy Agreed, their version screaming "country", The Killers made it absolutely fantastic!

  • @johanneswingerlang thanks =)

  • LOVE!!!

  • BRAVO!!!! Both bands are good at what they do, but you have to admit this is a really good cover, that's the way a cover is done (Y)

  • I just like the piano part 

  • Great cover but Bright Eyes is better. This song is supposed to be sad and idk if The Killers understood that.

  • Great,excellent,so much better than Bright Eyes,vid is perfect too,just awesome. (:

  • Bright Eyes > The Killers

    Still a great song though, this is a really good cover.

  • Mr. Bright5ide approves of this awesome song & video! d---(O_O)---b

  • It doesn't match Conor's passion, but it's a great cover.

  • Loooove this song! Brandon's voice sounds flat out Amazing!! And I really like what you did with the pictures- it's nice to see effort put into a video with just pics :) Where did you get that one of him jumping off a speaker??

  • sexxy song

  • I love this song and the pictures you have with it. Amazing job! I listen to it all the time.

  • i like both the killers and bright eyes but i braced myself before i pressed play. luckily this version is pure and clean, practically pretty. i think bright eyes' version is more intense, but this is a great cover. the song itself is beautiful.

  • what is this song about?

  • meh.... you cant steal brilliance...

  • Comment removed

  • where did you find all those pictures?i like them all.by the way,what is the song supposed to mean?

  • This version so sounds so pure.

  • Video is well done Great pictures Like it very much

  • que guay

  • nice video

  • This is amazing!!! The music reminds me of something that would be on Hot Fuss, and his voice is from Day and Age....best cover of any song by any band EVERR!!! This and Shadowplay ;DD

  • Great cover! I love the killers and they are my favvourite band! Great slideshow by the way! The pictures are sweet!

  • Really Great Slide Show !

    Pictures+Lyrics = Perfect Match !

  • i think the killer's version is very good, but i prefer the original.

    i mean... conor oberst FEELS his song and this is what music is about. in my opinion, you can't play a sad song like if it was a happy song. anyways... i love bright eyes and i love the killers :)

  • Yo great slideshow, one suggestion though when the video ends where he says "you better look alive" You should of used the cover where it is vannucci knocked out on the boxing ring and the band members asr stiching him up. Other than that great video.

  • this song is unbelievable

  • Where did you get the pictures?

  • this song is beautiful!! I did like the pictures you put up...but i don't know which one i like better. (this one or the Bright Eyes one)

  • This is a good cover, but it has nowhere near the depth and feeling that the Bright Eyes version does

  • WOW! GREAT COVER!

  • beautiful cover, beautiful video - definitely the best picture slideshow i've ever seen. i love it :D

    also, you can tell how much brandon's progressed with his singing in this, compared to hot fuss. it's incredible.

    :D

  • love the song and the pictures throughtout are beautiful good job!!

  • damn these are well chosen pics! mega.

  • Only Bright Eyes fans would prefer original. Lyrics are awesome but I would never have given them a second listen. The Killers version is addictive!

  • Brandon Flowers sounds very good in this.

    I don't really like Bright Eyes,

    I appreciate the lyrics of their songs but the singer isn't very good.. :p

    But they have some good ones.

  • when is the cover album do for the Killers?

  • @zreidsnider

    I've been hearing about it more and more.

    But, I sort of doubt it's coming within the next year or two.

  • So much better than the original version!

  • bright eyes sings it better but killers has better music

  • this is epic. two of my favorite bands rolled into one song?

    yes please!

  • I want this song, where can I find it? Please help me!

  • It's only availiable on iTunes I think

  • Pretty sure you already found it, though I think it was a B-side on mr. brightside or something sensible like that.

  • it's on the spaceman single

  • you mean day and age? o_o

  • I showed my friend this video, and he says the singer for the killers looks like Matt Bellamy from Muse, anyone else think so too? i kinda see how they look similar

  • hell no! matt bellamy is ugly.. no offense XD on the other hand, brandon flowers isn't :P

  • Wow, that was seriously the best slideshow I have ever seen.

  • I totally agree with you!

  • bright eyes does this song more justice

  • where did you get the last picture??? love it!! btw thanks, very nice vid :)

  • I got it off their fan club site, the Victims. And thanks!

  • very nice video, the clash of the black and white photos and the font looked nice.

    TKFTW :)

    awesome cover.

  • beautiful.

  • The piano in this song sounds so cool!

    I really like this version.

  • awesome cover!

  • Absolute brilliant cover

    The killers are excellent

  • Great cover. The video was well done.

  • does anyone know how i can put this on my iPod?

  • I can't believe the Killers could actually make this song sound good. I heard the Bright Eyes version and it sounded almost like a really bad country song. Don't get me wrong, The lyrics are great but the Killers played it better.

  • @rootieboy FUCK THAT! however much i dislike this cover i wouldnt insult the killers there awesome. Bright eyes are one of the greatist bands ever

  • @rootieboy It's not a "really bad country song", it's blues. There is a difference. Bright Eyes' version will always be better, because it is. Deal with it.

  • @rootieboy I don't think you understand the song at all. You're just looking for a good beat which is fine in itself. Also the original sounds like folk... not country... The cover is good in the sense that it can turn a deeply meaningful song into a superficial dance track.

  • Comment removed

  • They did a great job. It's not a dance track either, obviously. Both are great in their own ways.

  • @rootieboy if true the song sounded outdated before the killers did a miracle

  • I'm addicted!

  • Awsome Job! I love this cover, no matter what other people say about it! :)

  • i love it! very good job!

  • The Killers cover this song soo well

    their awesome!!

    great video :)

  • i know this is gona anger you bright eyes fanboys but i easily think the killers version is much better. better vocals and it flows better.

    the bright eyes version is crap, the lead singer sounds like hes crying, he studders and its off beat so whatever i think the killers do this song jusice and bright eyes should be jealous that brandon flowers sings this song better.

  • wow, good job man!

  • the best, best, best song of the world!! I like it!!!

  • Comment removed

  • favouritee!!!

    thanks for the video ;)

  • go to hell, if you dont like it go watch the original

  • Comment removed

  • Conor is my favorite i like the bright eyes version better but this one is good..but nothing beats conors this just dosnt have the emotion that conor puts into his songs

  • much better than the original!

  • Great Cover!!!!!!

  • Love It !!

  • not as good as the original but still a good song, it's just a shame this is becoming more popular than the original

  • the original is not better...at all...lol that connor guy cant sing for his life

  • He has a distinct voice. It's part of what makes him unique.

  • viel besser als das Original!

  • wow the killers are the best, this song sounds way better than the original one, i love it

  • good song.. but i didn't like it as much as Bright eyes..

  • oh my. i love this song adn the killers

    it's like an explosion in a hppy factory

  • Great song

  • if brandon flowers is so religious, then why would he cover this song?

  • the lyrics about the bible, torah and qu'ran could be a reference to the fact that Christianity, Judaism and Islam all have same ancestors i.e. Abraham, therefore burn them all together, and get close to the truth. they are sometimes referred to as sister religions, as they all share simularities. Islam and Judaism being born from the Hebrews, and Christianity being born from Judaism. All the holy books share an element of truth, so mix them up, maybe the truth is clearer when together

  • maybe, but im sure a different word other than burning would be used in that case. especially when talking about holy books.

  • I think burn em means to get the belief system of all the Children of Abraham OUT OF OUR HEADS

  • i was asking myself the same thing

  • this is birlliant, their cover and your video, thanks very much!! great pics, brandon is the king! xxx

  • haha i puttet it up on my old account , but this is better anyway so thanks for sharing.

  • this is bad ass... nice slide and lyrics too man

  • I love your video.

    Well done!!!

  • wow this doesn't even compare to the original...

  • As in it's worse?

  • Where can you get this song??

    I tried looking for it on Itunes but it wasn't there

    If someone knows plz!!

  • It should be available for purchase on Amazon under the Spaceman single.

  • wow i love the killers.... they are my favourite band and i can play a couple of thier songs and have all their cd's but i never heard this song before. Its a really nice song .. quiet and nice. The killers arnt extremely popular in Australia. Only people who really know rock know the killers and they are such a good band!!! its not mainstream too : ) The killers ROCK and brenadan flowers is pretty cool.

  • Nice photos too. Where u get them from??

  • DUUUUUUUUUDE

    the killers are coming out with a cd of just covers!!!

    and from this song and shadowplay, the killers' covers are better than the original! love joy division tho

  • killers = best band out there, & picking a great song to cover like this one, or Romeo and Juliet just shows they have ridiculous taste too... love it. I hope they never stop

  • hey man... this is AWESOME... specially the pix. they're absooolutely great.

    could you email me some to this account in gmail? i'd like a couple of them as wallpaper....

    please man...

  • Hey Devils water.. do you think that you could email me some of these pics? they are sweet, and i could use them as backgrounds!!! thanks so much, and please?

  • Yeah, just PM me your email address and the timecodes of any you want! :)

  • i noticed a lyric that is incorrect, can you pls correct -- it's IN a chemical swirl, not AND

    :)

    otherwise, GREAT VID AND AWESOME ADDICTIVE SONG

  • i haven't stopped hearing this! i'm liking it more and more each time i heard it. :) i actually like this one better than bright eyes' version. i think their version is a little too country/folk-ish for me. i would love to hear this song as an acoustic with brandon's voice.

  • @zeet75 That is a great idea : )

  • Great Job on the video. When was this released? Didn't see any mention of it on the Victims

  • do you the MP3 of that song?

    i really like their version.

  • woooooooooooooow
