I like music videos, it adds more depth to songs and can be somewhat easier to relate to.This video is particularly good, even if Brandon Flowers pisses me the fuck off (what a pretentious little bastard, someone needs to pop him in the eye.) (lessthanthree)

jordansinferno says I enjoy this video, thanks for posting it. I got the new album a couple of days after it came out, not too bad either.

Violet Grey says The thing that gets me with videos ais that it does often press the look of a band or artist over the substance of their material. Also, there are far too many directors making videos that see them as nothing more than a stepping stone to making movies or some such. There is no longer a true emphasis on music! The worst culprits are the videos that will often drop out of the song or muffle it for some sort of crappy dialouge or to emphasis an even in the video. The videos often have little or nothing to do with the song, which is fine except in cases where the videos are attempting to tell a story. The music then becomes the background soundtrack to this little short film, a great irony that I wonder how many bands are lost on. That and I just can't stand this guys voice. He's about as emotionally subtl as a box full of rusty nails. But that's me and I'm an asshole anyway.

jimbaetz says Yeah, someone does need to pp him in the eye. Did you see them on the tonight show when they had the choir on stage with them? Him and the guitar player need to bring the ego back a little. I mean, I think they are good. But they are not The Beatles or anything.

Violet Grey says No one else will ever be the Beatles, that's the danger of continuing to grow the Beatles mythology like we do. We will never have room for new classics if we don't allow the old classics to die.

ladyfizzgig says I really hope The Killers aren't remembered as my generation's classics. We've already got RHCP (tools) and U2 (even bigger tools).

Violet Grey says Be that as it may (although I don't agree that U2 are tools, I happen to love them) if we continune to hold the standards of old as THE standard for all time, combined with the amazing ability hindsight has to distort and smoth away the imperfections of the past, we will never out our stamp on time and forever be placed in a position to glorify the music of our parents as being the true standard or quality. I, for one, am vehemetly opposed to this idea.
