I like the song because its kinda catchy and has good rhythm though its kinda old now lol. I think MTV did a machinama thing on this song when they had the program where they did one for a bunch of popular songs. I think they used Destroy All Humans for this song.

I don't care for the Killers. Now, the Iron Maiden album Killers is more like it.

Yeah, I do. Pretty catchy, and, despite a bit mature, has a relatable topic, I guess.

I love The Killers. One of my favorite bands. I like the song, but it's not their best, Hot Fuss has many other good songs.

In class, we're going through popular music decades. Were on the 2000's, and this song is one of the most overwhelmingly popular tunes.

We go through the music arrangements of the song, and do a brief thing about it, and move on.

Unfortunately not, its mainly pop.

The Beatles, some Led z, then a bunch of one hit wonder 80's, then on to radiohead and oasis, then the 2000's.

Eh, may not be Iron Maiden or Metallica, but the Beatles are pretty freaking awesome.

Well that was... Bad. I was sort of optimistic with the intro, but then the vocals came in. First time I've heard a person alter their voice specifically to be as boring and monotonous as possible.

The songs not bad, but that video makes the song feel drab. I think its the singers face lol, he doesnt show enough emotion to fit with the lyrics of the song.

I actually stopped iistening to The Killers a long while back. Mr Brightside does have a catchy hook and decent lyrics to keep you addicted to listening to it frequently. However, the song(in fact every song from Hot Fuss) loses it's charm after subsequent listens.

I think Hot Fuss is still a fantastic pop record even 5 years down the road...

In my opinion none of the songs have gotten old
