I swear I've looked at that album cover a million times (here, my iPod and my physical copy) and I've never noticed the arm in the woods until today. I feel dumb now.
@guarichumoli ok dude so this album is a collection of B-sides and songs they didnt include in their other albums right? so when you build something good you always leave behind traces of your work like sawdust when u make a house. And the arm being sawdust means to me that in creating all of their masterpieces, they had to make tough desisions and leave pieces of themselves behind. this album is meant to give us what go left out :)
@ccbc23 oops, haha, I meant Flowers, obviously - but the funny thing is, I didn't know any of the other band mates names when I interviewed them - so I guess that still haunts me to this day.
This song holds special meaning to me. My dad and I are estranged, very estranged. I live with my mom's side of the family and am very ashamed that I am related to my father. So much so that I changed my name back to my mother's maiden name. This song is very different than the story I just told, but I still feel like I'm inescapably connected to my father, and a lot of people tell me that I have my Grandfather's (Mom's dad's) face and stature, but Dad's eyes. No joke. So I really relate to this
does ANYONE know if the killers/brandon flowers sing this song with the lyrics that go 'your knife in my back'..i can't remember the rest..i heard it while i was in pacsun and it REALLY sounded like brandon. PLEASE reply.
just read the ıssue of musıcexpress summer 2009 (june t. august) ıntervıew wıth b.flowers 'bout theır lyrıcs dıf. album, fırst concert,etc., and not to forget the b'sıdes
the killers are known for writing lyrics that mean nothing but sound like they do im sure some of his songs mean something but just thought this one dont
@TwilightRev8lver Maybe you just lack the capacity to interpret them properly lol. Basically every single one of their songs makes complete sense, I'm not quite sure why you stuggle to understand the meaning in their songs.
@TwilightRev8lver Just because the meaning isn't spelled out for you doesn't mean there isn't any. What's the point of music if it doesn't force you to think?
I think this song is about a guy telling his son about his mom leaving them or that he has to leave them forever and he is telling his son that he has his eyes and that he loves his mom but he cant stay
Loveth this song! But my little sister wants to know what it is about and I can't really explain it correctly to her. Can someone please try to explain it clearly for me?
I'd love to stay but I can't :(
I've been umm... Fooling around...
