Keith Harris mentioned it in a blog post a couple days ago. I never thought of it before then.

I've probably heard this song at least fifty times in the last couple of months, but I don't remember ever thinking about this. Strange.
And yeah, rock single of the year so far, obv.

this is like my husband's favorite part of his favorite album (next to daft punk's discovery, lately anyway). We have dubbed this trick the 'miss susie' school of lyric-writing. I think this is a really fun album, I don't get all the hate.

Silly me I thought that was a girl.
The Killers suck complete balls.
As opposed to...sucking stray bits of balls?

Yes, but *not good* -- there are (completely individual and biased) standards to be upheld here.

beyond that, i wonder why the killers got so huge, in general.what about that crappy 'imarobot' band, why didn't they get big?were they like six months ahead of the trend?pop culture is so fucked.
i also wonder if hot hot heat sell a lot this time 'round...any predictions on them?

I just realised that Mr Brightside = Shed Seven covering 'What Do I Do Now' by Sleeper, with slightly different lyrics.

I also heard Somebody Told Me first. It was definitely an omnipresent single for a while before I first heard Mr. Brightside.
