[stu030273]

was there and it was fuckin the best

[replacesfear]

bring the back the stache!

[ericrico222]

This is absolutely phenomenal! The energy pours into you as you watch this - simply EPIC!

The Killers, over the last 5 years have come from playing small gigs in Vegas to headlining Leeds, Royal Albert Hall, and on, and on! They have some of the most awesome song-writing of my generation - great musicianship and perform INCREDIBLY live...that is what makes them so good. They are a true original - you cannot really classify them as one thing and the hooks and melodies are mesmerizing!

[davidhyperion]

Holy moly! This is an AWESOME live performance!!!

[meizdaboss101]

the killers FTW

[DigestedGoose]

Hope they play at leeds this year

I love the killers

[gollygoshohnoes]

Little chance of that, since they headlined Reading and Leeds in '08.

[meizdaboss101]

one of my favorite songs!!!!!

[felicitaesther]

wow, long life the killers, rocks!!!!

[StarryEyedSurprise00]

They sound so good live :D Can't wait to see them at V Festival this year!

[louluvsl33ds]

they are amazing live :)

[athull08]

They would have sounded even better if the sound people had got it right. I think they've got the drums too loud, and flowers' mic too quiet. Great performance all the same.

[deffadda]

plus wen u was there it sounded like a cd

n in the more popular songs u coodnt hear his voice at all

still awesom

[AjxxTHEbunny]

omfg. Brandon is so fucking cute and he have awesome voice!  :)

Luv them:D

where is this?

good video..:D

[spiffywheel]

to snappypappy1871 .... dont ever mix this music up with pop again this is indie rock.. pop is like hannah montanna... which in my opinion is not real music... dont mean to be a dick...

[snappypappy1871]

this stuff is indie yeah i love it but sams town had a rock edge and day & age is more pop-ish and since that is their current era thats why i said that =D

if you check itunes it says that ST is rock + D&A is pop (but that's not much to go by they call feeder "metal")

Killers are awesome forever!

[spiffywheel]

YEH...Day and age sucks, like every good artist they get sold out. record companys buy them and make them play gay pop music so thats why there recent albums suck... Hott Fuss is real music

[sbraun1800]

excellent camera shot at 1:15 - 1:20

[joelfanxt]

oh lhe sings weak live :/

[lozztinnit]

ill never ever forget this performance!

[emith02]

same lozza!!eee and all the gold bits that fell down!:D desstinyy is calling mee

[StarProductiveGaming]

Sunday Was Much Better :D Love Festival Again This Year :D

[meowchic301]

day and age sold well. theyre solid as a band now. i think they will fade evetntuaaaaaalllllllyyyy......­...l

[ninjaprincesskazama]

love this song :D

[justisnumber100]

how come dave switched guitars?

[freemagazine1]

KILLERS ftw!! to kalokairi oloi KILLERS re!!

[TdiMusic]

Is it me,or is it the fact that Brandon's voice has changed after all these years?

Hot Fuss: Brandon sang perfectly

Sam's Town: His voice changed ALOT

Saw Dust: Same

Day&Age: Close to Hot Fuss

IDK why Brandon's voice sounds all worn out or something):

[marwood03]

His voice is better now than it was in Hot Fuss without doubt, he has tone in his voice now, you just have to listen to Spaceman to notice. I wasn't to fond of his voice during the Sam's Town 'era'

[mattbillings]

i would say the killers are one of my favorite bands and i agree that his voice has no doubtly got better through the ages, although sams town is my favorite album, different opinions though hey :P

[snappypappy1871]

the killers are the best pop-rock band in the world, but i think hot fuss is their best album, because it was so raw. Day and Age is good in a different way, Brandons voice is more polished, but the first five track especially on hot fuss are their best =]

[adrenalinerock11]

+ Change Your Mind

[misspunkduck]

Ohh i cant wait for this year.. I hope its as good as the last!!

[acridus]

people shoulda watched manics or gallows on saturday

straight.

[CharlieWThompson]

You Know what's better than this....

Green Day 09

[louluvsl33ds]

Green Day are not better than the killer you complete music moron.

[CharlieWThompson]

Yeah, I'm the moron

Says the person who probably thinks that

Sawdust was the greatest album ever

Smile Like you mean it is the most upbeat song ever

Mr Brightside is Not AS FUCKING REPETIVE AS HELL

The Killers are good but I think that alot of people would agree that Green Day are better. Due to Green Day having better songs. Jesus of Suburbia Kicks every track on hot fuss's ass anyday.

(And the thumbs down on my previous comment, I know its you. That's just childish)

[xxtaylortube]

Hahaha... Green Day is nothing compared to The Killers

[eclipse888]

Awesome performance.

It was lucky that they performed at night because the lighting made it even better.

2:55 to 3:06

:)

[MRSjonasFlowers]

totaly. i want to see them in concert so bad! im a huge fan. like major obsessed.

[snappypappy1871]

that was the iconic part of the festival 4 me, along with killin in the name, smokers outside hospital doors + the sparks @ when u wer young

[howesy]

There were streams of people leaving the killers was quality. Wandered out of manics half way through and so many were leaving killers :D

[cbjbfb]

killers great band.

but did lack the cutting edge for me.

Bloc party had that and were superb.

bloc party were better x

[rbeer37]

i totally agree with you m8

we started a sitting down protest cuzz i didnt think they were all that gr8, block party were much better!

i think they knew they were loosing some of crowd cuz they threw this is mid set.... bit strange as its argueably there biggest song

[2n2equals5]

He even performs their old, good songs like an annoying twat these days.

[MasterJigsaw]

One of the best bands of the weekend for me!

I loved it how crazy everyone went during this song.

[skatevidsforyou]

enter shikari was crazy there

[iamtmc]

arctic munchy

ya nanas dead.

the killers (L)

[GingaPlayer2]

what a bad insult man

[iamtmc]

i hope your nana contracts a fatal std!

[deadmandanny88]

THE MANICS ARE THE MOST DEPRESSING BAND EVER.

bad choice, killers where amazing that night !

[arcticmunchy]

Id rather of sat in my tent reading a nice romantic novellete than watch this yank shite

[marwood03]

What difference does it make if they are Americans?

[karleymason1]

wat a fuckin gay,

you have no taste in music at all they are not shite.

if they where so shite why would they have the crowed goin wild?

wata loser

i love you Brandon + Ronnie + Dave + Mark xxx

[arcticmunchy]

you have no idea what music i like? killers have one good song

[karleymason1]

well obv.

yu have no taste at all by the sound of your comment.

and whats that "one good Song" then?

coz theyr all brilliant

[mattyme91]

sorry man, i thought these guys were shit live, and i like the killers, they just lulled me to sleep, walked out after sams town, they just didnt do owt for me cept bore the fuck outta me, felt like i just put on a CD in my tent and as listening to it with 40,000 people, dissapointling

[manakerito]

Yeh mate I agree, I'm a big Killers fan but they left me disappointed at Leeds this year. It was mainly due to the sound, they were just so quiet, and I think also they had the impossible task of following Metallica and Rage, who were both brilliant.

[rbeer37]

they where awaful wernt they!

the bass was too loud aswell as the drums

u cudnt hear the guitar or the synth and brandon didnt talk 2 the audience atall.

dont get me rong im a big killers fan.... but based on tht performance that day it felt like they should have opened 4 bloc party

[mattyme91]

Yeah man, really put a downer on that night too since they were the last fucking band to play at leeds!!! no wonder everyone was burning and shitting in and on tents:P or maybe thats just tradition but i beleive its partly to do with the killers!!!

[louluvsl33ds]

if you were at Leeds Brandon spoke to the audience loads .

But did you go to Reading ?

[rbeer37]

nahh i was at reading

didnt speak atall... well he didnt when i was there... i walked off after this song

[iamjuggsgetoverit]

RYAN BEER MY FESTIVAL CHUM WHO SHARED MY TENT

he made me go to watch them wanted to watch manics or gallows stupid cunt!!!!!

[ComeToTheBrightsideX]

Well, if you're such a big Killers fan, you would have stayed till the end and excepted that they were doing the best they could to make that an amazing performance. It was not down to the band at all, it was the crew's fault. Brandon was scared that if he talked, he would be boo'd because of the sound - he was frightened. I would be, in front of a crowd that big who wouldn't?

[willster500]

They not boring, they best band in world mate. Nob!

[marwood03]

The MSP :| they are Welsh.

[gracieskinner999]

READINGS BETTER THAN LEEDS THAT'S WHY!

And I queued 12 hours to see these babies front row. How it was worth it.

[marwood03]

0:34 impressive voice tone change

[marwood03]

Ive got ham but im not a hamster

[Skippylfc]

they allways fuckin show reading. what bout leeds.

[dakshman]

because reading is the main festival been around longer than leeds and its the biggest in the world if im right.

[Skippylfc]

no your not right. glastonbury is!

and im not sayin they should just show leeds they should show both! doesnt matter wich is biggest there both huge

[ceegee71]

I´m surprised...did not believe, that they are so good playing live; those guys must have had a brilliant day on that day. That´s what a good festival is all about...good live-performing bands and a crowd going crazy. " The Killers " really know how to perform and to entertain the people. I´m a bit envy...great show.

[DevilAshDMC]

Bring back Leeds fest coverage!

Reading gets everything :/

[TheSambo]

The best song of all time in my opinon

[lrod1887]

agreeed!

:>

also when you were young, its legit.

[naak2708]

amazing!

[whosurmommy99]

At 2:20 it sounds better than the album version

[whosurmommy99]

This sounds just like the album version (well almost). Except most people didn't know the words at 1:47

[welshmoron]

Lets hope the bbc don't televise any more live shows, as they definitely should have covered Leeds as much as Reading. According to their webpage they were going to give extensive covering of Leeds, well where was it?

[WalkingConstantine]

Holy crap, Mark and Dave are all over the stage! The Killers have come such a long way, it's mind-bending.

[wodemingzijiaonisha]

Man those lights are friggin amazing. The Killers will ALWAYS rock the house down! LOVE BRANDON!

[aerosmith1550]

if u think they suck live, go watch the performance of when you were young at this concert. one of the best performances any i've ever seen. killers4life.

[whatabill]

bring back the gold suit, i say...

[whosurmommy99]

Bring back the stuble i say ;)

[jackaldinio]

looks like a clean shaved russell brand on drums

[m1dnightshow]

that totally kicked ass!!!!!

[PilpTC]

Butt scratcher!

Shout of reading XD

[ambontoast]

manics are good live, but i saw these in marlay park last thursday, flew over to dublin and everything, and it was the best night of my life.

they were amazing. although they sound better if you're actually there, not watching it on youtube.

[derb7075]

wot u on bout they're fab !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sazzles1410]

He is incredibly hot!!

Awesome band and song - Wish I had been there!

[craigthered]

seen them twice before - awful live on both occasions so i watched the manic street preachers in the nme tent. Best decision ive ever made.

[Royalstar667]

Really? hmmm...are you sure you just don't like their music?

[craigthered]

I never said I dislike their music, they are just very average live, infact below average

[tracie1308]

there nothing of the sort!!! best band in the world and there great live ive heard worse!!! they was great i got right to the front and loved every song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SlimFitSam]

if you were you would of felt the energy of this song live, just calm down.

[perfectlyillegal]

omg are you an idiot? i saw manic street preachers when they supported foo fighters and they were terrible, i saw killers at leeds and they were one of the best bands ive ever seen

[craigthered]

I can tell you have a great taste in music, foo fighters !!!! I guess the manics were 'terrible@ because your too ignorant to know most of their material.

[c0rnf1ake]

can the ppl who post these vids not figure that if the recording is at reading not to write READING AND LEEDS cause thats just confusing them together as one! I want to look for myself in the front row at the leeds one and these dont help. pisses me off the leeds has been overlooked by its recordings. i agree with the last comment sadly the sound system at leeds was terrible going loud and quiet. but i genuinley think that they did a much better show at leeds. bloc party rocked my socks

[acornerofmyown]

the sound system appears to be actually listenable at reaading, i was at leeds and the sound on the main stage was atrocious, definitely needs sorting out next year, it was fine last year like =/

[brandonboydluver]

the highlight of the whole festival! totally amazing!

[c0rnf1ake]

how many more comments are by leeds ppl than reading!?!?!?! i think they should stop being cocks and show our leess festival too

[Killersfan79]

always love Mr.Brightside, always love Mr.Brandon Flowers:). Thansk for the vid.

[QueenWit]

Yeah Leeds was sick!

It's well annoying they only showed Reading, same with Radio 1!

It's bullshit, leeds forevs :)

[EllieHaHaWoop]

Totaly Agree Fuck the BBC like. LEEDS FOREVER!

And they are 2 seperate festivals in 2 seperate places but with the same line-up just on diffrent days.

[mikestanleyefc]

What the fuck are the BBC doing?

Only playing Reading highlights, from what i see on of the Reading, it was nowhere near as mad as Leeds, it was fucking unreal!

[gibbo91123]

too fukin rite

[zibbyzib2000]

So what is the difference between reading and leeds festival. I thought it was the same thing in the same place. Its 2 seperate festivals then??? Some one pleez explain.

[Culli00]

Leeds was better

[biglewhill]

i fucking agree!

[Trialslew]

bbc are crap they never venture up north to record at leeds... pfft

[marwood03]

Total ignorance isn't it

[biglewhill]

fuck reading.

[marwood03]

Have the BBC even heard of the north?

Just a bunch of stuck up southern sofites down at the BBC - fuck 'em.

[Skippylfc]

fuckin damn right. n the crowds at reading in 2008 seem fuckin shit compared to what they usually do. it would be nice to see some footage from leeds for a change.

[gollygoshohnoes]

Sadly, the set wasn't great from the crowd. :(

[Shadowplay91]

That was brilliant night, I loved it!

The Killers put on a brilliant live show!

I want to relive it!

[brownthing1]

wish i back there to relive it all again

[coventryblaze123]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH his moustache has gone i love the killers
