The Killers - Uncle Johnny

[TheLemonWarrior]

Most underrated song on Sam's Town

[LLawlietx33]

Brandon Flowers has a fucking amazing voice *_*

[iquiverwithFEAR]

The Killers + drink = cure to life's pains

[SmokinLogan92]

The Killers...

Single handedly saving music for a generation.

[IndianaDylan]

Found a notebook by my mother recently. In it there's a page where she, my father, and her brother (my uncle) Johnny "did a fuckton of coke!" Needless to say this song immediately kicked in.

[demonic87]

Dat bass. Dat fucking bass.

[fish2403]

how the fuck this song has so little views?

[ryancartwright514]

imma kill 36 people >:|

[Emester123]

why is this not avalible on ipod???

lol now i think off it i really listened to depressing music as a child, i love it!!!!

they sound good live , unlike alot off bands:)

I feel a burning in my body core, its a yearning that you cant ignore<3

[Alexanderunderthesea]

36 people refrained

[KorolYasheric]

Uncle Rockzo

[Edcow]

Linda música, muito tocante.

[Emile344]

I have an Uncle named Johnny. He's an asshole

[MrMethadrine]

@Emile344 Arent all uncles?

[arturoythier25]

wow the epicness is amazing!!

[pastetajetrena]

Hey Johnny I've got faith in you man!

[jchadwick88]

If the future is real...............

[CardOfNards]

Why is this not their most famous song. To me it's the best.

[hurtfan09]

Great song - Great album - Great band



[ARS1ROCKSBABE]

In every song they make connects to something that has happend to me. It's crazy! I love them :)

[j3w3Lry]

Suh suh suh SUPERMAN and hold on tight <3

[LaYnRuInS]

how come on almost evry video(especially ones that hav nothing 2 do wit justin biebr)do ppl strt tlkin bout him like if u wanna tlk about him go comment on one of HIS videos! luv dis song btw

[LyricalWax]

Hey Johnny I got faith in ya man I mean it, it's gonna be all right!

[whynotzoidburg]

@LyricalWax My favorite line by far!

[mynameisnate320]

i love everyone right now

[flarm]

This is the song that inspired me to start doing cocaine... and i haven't stopped since because i'm convinced that it helps to take away the pain

[stoneyboi13]

"he's convinced himself right in his brain, that it helps to take away the pain, hey Johnny"

R.I.P Uncle Johnny <3

[epicmclovinable]

...I have an Uncle John as well.

(He's a nice guy though.)

I absolutely love this song.

[mandyreyes52]

@belligerentpersHo .....what?

[NeonTiger24]

its weird, here it says "my appetite aint got no heart" but on the album it says "my uncle johnny got no heart"

best part is when he says "and touch the super man and hold on tight"

[maxumusprime]

If I were a douche bag, I'd say something like "33 People DON'T got faith in Jonny" but I think I'm just gonna enjoy the music lol

[dkr56]

Is it just me or would this have been a prefect song for the Hangover movies?

Though at the same time I'm glad it wasn't used, becuase theres a good chance it might have killed it

[Dunderhead36]

when i first heard this album, my hope for modern music came back

[casus229]

my uncle jhony is good this song and all of the ``the killers´´

[prlajonas]

wow the guitar at the beginning/end

[CodyGuerin]

my grandma lives next to sam's town

[nerdsteen]

justin bieber made 32 accounts, just to dislike this video.

[nerdswith8guns]

@nerdsteen Wow, you must have stayed up all night to come up with that gem.

[geoffwoade]

@nerdsteen why do people still thumb up these comments?

[datkid56]

@nerdsteen you made one extra to hide the fact...

[Gossipnastar]

This song is based on Brandon's uncle, SADFACE!

[theegganeter]

i showed this song to my friend and she said it sucked i said u suck and punched her .. we're not friends anymore

[marked2202]

@theegganeter nice 1

[daCODglitcher]

the guitar sounds so dirty. But so good.

[bloodlesXxXvampire]

old killers is the shit

[noa14yordei]

One of my faivoriets bands in the world!

[12shane78]

What a fucking song, what a fucking band!!!!!

[leangreen87]

love this band

[PrincesaPunkDDA]

i like enough how sounds the dirty guitar in the beggining of the song...

[mrbrockway]

You are over generalizing buddy

[IDontShine423]

Sorry about commenting so much, there's just so much to say about The Killers. lol

[WarriorCatLover12]

JTHM a little bit anyone?

[datkid56]

@WarriorCatLover12 exactly.

[247nana]

I still don't understand why people continue to use "Uncle Johnny." It's Uncle Jonny, without the H.

[IDontShine423]

@247nana *Looks on the back of my Sam's Town* You're right.! ^.^ I guess... Johnny is the normal spelling. *Votes up your comment*

[SuperRadification]

I actually have an uncle named Johnny :D

He doesn't do cocain though >.>

[datkid56]

@SuperRadification I could devote this song to my uncle johnny for he has a bit of a mental problem so it kinda goes well with this song

[DoubleAgent244]

listen to that intro.

[NigguhFukYoCouch]

i have found a cure for anxiety and sleep deprivation, listen to The Killers for 3 hours and think your way through your stress and sleep with the sweetest of dreams. thank god for such an amazing band, gotta love em

[IDontShine423]

@NigguhFukYoCouch Are you saying The Killers put you to sleep and cure insomnia.? >.> I don't think it's just Jonny that's on cocaine. haha Just kidding.

[shaundaza09]

except all fans of the killers, and the killers there selves of course

[shaundaza09]

CAUSE AMERICA ARE DUMB FAGS

[datkid56]

@shaundaza09 D: you ass hole

[IDontShine423]

@shaundaza09 Just because The Killers are not as well-known in America, doesn't mean they're "fags".

[Shadowist99]

Was waiting at Olive garden with my family when i noticed the old man with his family to my right had a hat on... and on this hat it said Sam's town. Now i didn't pin him as a Killers fan, and i was sure the hat meant something else.

Turns out Sams town is a western style casino and a retirement community in las vegas, would have never guessed.

Old people hats, teaching us new things everyday.

[IDontShine423]

@Shadowist99 How ironic that The Killers portray Sam's Town as a real place, they're from Las Vegas, and they're "Cowboys". :)

[TheMmafan89]

@Shadowist99 its the casino brandon grew up by. so sams town is his metaphor for home, just listen to the song sams town and it all about it

[ungue2]

@Shadowist99 if it's a famous casino, that might have something to do with the album and the song. Just a guess.

[careintheworld44]

@Shadowist99 been there as a kid. It was a treat. It's like WalDrug out there. Wooden raised sidewalks.....very interesting place to people watch.

[willismind]

Great song!! check this band out:

Watermind - Not again

long live 4 the Killers !!!!!!!!

[SailorCybertron11223]

i love the music box sounding part at the end..... it just gives me the chills

[Morephine22]

"When everybody else refrained, my uncle Johnny did cocaine" ...ahhh... my favorite part. XD

[rockoutloud2112]

I love classic music but a friend of mine suggested this band to me so i gave them a try and there not bad at all the sound a lot like a modern U2 or something

[death0note0owner08]

2006 was best you for music in last 10 years for me if you dont have this album get it

[sgtsnakeeyes11]

hot fuss when x6 platinum in UK, damn uk likes there indie

[cborgstadt81]

If accuracy's important to you as a fan, it's "Jonny," not "Johnny." Probably doesn't matter to non-writers, I realize. Wait, wasn't I doing something important a minute ago...

[emalm88]

NICE GOAT :P THUMBS UP IF U THINK ITS CUTE

[easypk834u]

naww the killers are like the beetles but BETTER in every known way.

[ninjabunnyhardcore]

@easypk834u It's Beatles. And no.

I love The Killers but no.

[easypk834u]

@ninjabunnyhardcore , thanks budd but err change ur name plox.. it sounds like a hentai rabbit porno. -.-

[easypk834u]

@ninjabunnyhardcore , this song isnt a beetles song ;) go do some homework.

[MelitaMarsden]

@ninjabunnyhardcore lol spelt? its "spelled" people are so grammatically incorrect these days..

[ninjabunnyhardcore]

@MelitaMarsden Sorry. I'm from Italy. :(

[rawrsaysmydino]

@MelitaMarsden You're grammatically incorrect by using lol, not putting an apostrophe between the t and s in its, not capitalizing the beginning of your sentence, not putting an end mark after "spelled". Ironic, huh? ;D

[MelitaMarsden]

@rawrsaysmydino and its ironic that you're saying i'm grammatically incorrect when you use words such as iight, anythin, and Puhh-leasant .

[rawrsaysmydino]

@MelitaMarsden Creeper, creeeeper. O.o

[ninjabunnyhardcore]

@easypk834u It's SPELLED Beatles not Beetles.

[Menz123451]

As Ive always said, Its all about Sams Town.

I dont know how on earth those dumb fuck critics didnt like this masterpiece.

[adamkwas]

lol ur all fags

[adamkwas]

@adamkwas why r u so damn cool, man?

[999nick1]

damn i have an uncle johnny but instead of doing cocaine hes convinced himself that anger is right and it helps to take away the pain of his brother dying. (My dad) He hella abused him and my dad used to have nightmares about it. So he has alot of indirect anger at himself for not havin a good relationship with my dad now hes gone. family is hella important dont take it for granted

[Ariki82]

MADRE DE DIOOS!!! VIVA THE KILLERS!!!!!!

[PurestPanda]

wow thats all I have to say great song

[gunguy009]

Man I love the guitar in this. It has so much feeling behind it even though it's so simple. :]

[Shayanderson5]

Always loved the killers! this has to be my favorite song by them though. It has so much soul to it. its amazing!

[easypk834u]

btw if u compare the killers to the beetles then you are definetly messed up i.e somewhere in the genetic's you've gone horribly wrong. The Killers KILL the beetles ( hence the name ) btw sorry about this msh , i was doing english litterature home work while typing this msg.

[ShareTheMadness]

@easypk834u its The Beatles.... Plus did you just say that The Killers are better than The Beatles? Okay, have your own opinion but without The Beatles most bands like The Killers wouldn't be making music like this.

[Poopsmith01]

@ShareTheMadness how can you say that? That is like saying if Newton hadn't had an apple fall on his head no one would know how gravity works.

[adamkwas]

@Poopsmith01 why r u so gay lolloloolol SOI SOI SOI SOI

[ShareTheMadness]

@Poopsmith01 not really, it is probably true. A lot of bands wouldn't be around if it wasn't for their music, just like a lot of older bands maybe I was wrong about The Beatles and The Killers but The Killers wouldn't exist if Joy Division didn't.

[queenofallmonkeys]

when everybody else refrained, my uncle johnny did cocaine...

[chemical2romance]

I have a great uncle John and this was the song i was listening to when i first met him! Yea that was interesting i couldn't help but laugh.

[TechnicallyLost]

why were critics so mean about this album? I don't get it...the songs sound great to me.

[philipsmog]

@TechnicallyLost Because Brandon, before its release, declared it to the press as possibly the best rock album of last 20 years, so he was asking for it.

[misssamstown]

@philipsmog no he said ONE of the best albums in the past 20 years!

[nipkonx]

i love the bass line in this song so fucking much! im a bassist and thats all i listen for haha lol

[iAmGOD009]

@nipkonx me as well BASS FTW

[nipkonx]

@iAmGOD009 fuck yeah bass for life

[AJBfc]

best song from a very good album

[fishy8081]

i luv how he sings the word heart

[fishy8081]

this grew on me immensely

[PAULFC93]

Love this song!

[StesperGuitar]

good album nd song

[andressakuzma]

What the heck is happening with the world? IZ and JTHM fans commenting at a The Killers´ music video?

[lovesallbooks]

my favorite album from them, just so soo good! not one song disappoints!

[doesnotcompute81]

excellent song. What a great album Sam's Town is. :)

[GloriousEscape]

The Killers are really good, amazing compared to what we hear on the radio now.....My favourite band in the WHOLE UNIVERSE though would have to be Muse...the most unique band ever :L

This song is so good though!

[dancinchck]

This song is just Genius!!

[chicagomonica]

THAT IT HELPS TO TAKE AWAY THE PAIN. THAT IS THE BEST PART.

[Lotty85]

@chicagomonica I agree, but I also like the bit right at the end - "If the future is real, Jonny you've got to heal"

[j77anderson]

love the guitar! this is REAL music, not that stuff on the radio these days.....this whole album is so underrated

[JizzFace27]

Im glad brandon didnt follow in Uncle Johnnys footsteps :P

[iSwimInMusic]

This is my least favorite song by them yet I still love it

[gabizzza]

i hate myself for missing their concert for an important exam.

[joselicruz]

i wait so patiently for da end so dat i can press da replay button :D

[vivalaT911]

every time i hea this song in my head phone i think they broke but best song ever

[InvaderShizzle]

I think This Songs About JTHM Or Nny?

[GloriousEscape]

@InvaderShizzle Oh i love Nny :) ...thinking about it it could relate to it :L

Is you user name in association to Invader Zim?????

[Dollface2509]

they sound british

[Mattysmyth0593]

Its funny how Britain loves them more than America.

[Legendao]

@Mattysmyth0593 well you clearly can hear the brit rock influence.

[thegreatmrt]

@Mattysmyth0593 Hey now some of us that are American actually love them and appreciate their music, believe me even though 90% of our country cant really read or write, or have an ear for music without a hip hop beat, there are some of us who understand their talent and amazing songwriting skills. But at least your country majority loves them, I feel sorry for those who miss out on their brilliance, at least your country gives them the credit they deserve.

[gd4r2v2kmv]

@Mattysmyth0593 and you love the beatles, the killers are far worse but on scale, it's pretty even really

[localboy32]

i Love this song..... best when playing it loud with the windows down in the car

[ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

@localboy32 I did that once while passing a cop. LOL he looked at me.

[909DANNYie]

great song. flowers and cedric from the mars volta have the best voice out there from any current band. my opinion

[MarioBrosArgentino]

the letter for song is good

[annamaria285]

amazing song from the best band ever!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kingbob30045]

best band ever

[denname123]

Give me music from the Killers and RHCP, and I'm set for life.

[FrozenSunflowers]

The Killers are great, I just /hate/ how Flowers said this was going to be a fabulous album, be remembered in twenty years, save Rock and Roll. >[

[mutebydesign]

I have seen them live ;]

[bukstrthehukstr]

One of my favorites from the Killers; this has to be one of their most under-appreciated songs.

[mcm696]

@thekillers rocks !

[steave707]

cools song

[LoneWulf428]

This is amazing to listen to on an iPod

[bellatrixforeva]

AMAZING!!! 

[wowzeeo]

I love how they can use so many different sounds and still sound great with each one :)

[handsomedevil98]

The same bass line as THE BEATLES HELTER SKELTER!

[FatCaterpillar11]

Johnny Cash <3

[bermudacocktail9]

I have no idea why they're so underrated over in America! They're fucking amazing and Flowers is beautiful <3 Maybe because they just don't know good music the way us brits do ;)

[miaumiau16]

@bermudacocktail9 yeap u guys have awsome music.. fell in love with the fratellis.. since the first song... =}

[Skipnation12321]

@bermudacocktail9 Idk really. I'm from America and I love Britain/England for their music. America is mainly surrounded by rap and hip hop, which is awful haha. It actually requires intelligence and passion to write music like these guys do.

[guitarrocks4561]

The Killers are one of the best bands in the world and theyre freesom of music is awesome. 

[CollinStaysBrutal69]

great song.

[miaumiau16]

HMM.... THIS SONG JUST TOUCHES ME SO DEEPLY... SIN I DID HAD AN UNCLE JOHNY JUST CALLED JIMMY... WHO.. AMM DISSAPEARED.. DUE TO DRUGS.. AND COCAINE.. UGH... CRY EVERYTIME I HEAR IT..

[greedkiller]

@miaumiau16

And your name resembles street slang for mephedrone? Guess you learned a lot from your uncle. 

[miaumiau16]

@greedkiller hahaha.. guess i did... drink most nights.. and cant stay away from cigarretes... but drugs?? nopp... would hurt my mom.. to death.. she lost her baby brother to drugs.. my uncly jimmy.. would kill her.. if i did it too...

[rockprid3e723]

as if u would have a top 10 list 4 the killers' songs. they're all the same. their songs are the weakness of this band. coz they dont create songs, they create masterpieces. and all of their songs are so fuckin good, that u cant rate from best 2 worst =)

[ajbizzle93]

my appetite aint got no heart.

[jamvis]

excellent quality mate :) Love this song.

[THEMATTBOTT]

i listen to this song EVERYDAY on the way to school, my friends are so sick of it XD

[falloutcats]

second best band ever( the first one was THE BEATLES)

[ninjabunnyhardcore]

@falloutcats This is really sad.

[popasmerf22]

wow who would rate this song down??

[Diego1350able]

THE BEST SONG really the best song is of this disc is When you were young and read my mind

[sacricolist]

I really don't understand why The Killers are not as popular as they should be.

[MilesG102]

@sacricolist But the killers are huge? At least they are here in the UK.

They really do deserve it as well.

[marwood03]

@sacricolist They aren't popular in the US because Americans think that Green Day are cool, move to the UK and you'll see how much they are loved over here. A festival isn't a festival without TK

[ComfortabIyNumb]

@marwood03

UK has the best taste in music anywhere in the world. and im NOT from there.

[bemjamin]

I'm american and i fucking HATE.... greenday. period.

can't stand them. so thank you for your time ;)
