Man i miss when they played this on the radio I remember the times when i was so confused over the lyrics and spent a while trying to interpret what it meant by boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend Good times
I know this isn't the point of the song...but to me it sounds like he's singing about doing anything to get the attention of this one girl...only to be told she's dating his ex-girlfriend.

@@nemanjap8768 no they don't go bad but some don't age that well over time. It is like games some don't hold up as well as they once did at their prime.
@@froxManDude I can't agree with that, good song is a good song, now, 20 years ago or 20 years into the future. It's not food, it's not a car, it's not a film so that technology improved over time . Art and songs don't have expiration date, they are either good or bad.
STOP I thought the lyrics were "somebody told me, you had a boyfriend, who looked like a girlfriend, and I had a plan you told me last year" (okay I never actually knew what that last part was) but when I watched this my jaw DROPPED.
Rocky Balboa anyone? I'm 26 and I remember I couldn't help but notice the huge change from watching rocky 4&5 and then seeing the change from Rocky's generation to his son and it was like having a time machine. I love the killers and have since then 🤓
This song brings so many memories back. i know i am young but i grew up and still listen to songs from 70s- early 2000s. I wasnt raised on songs that were made recently.
I was 21 when this came out and I always thought he was saying “ everything’s closed in a place like this” back then we couldn’t get lyrics on demand!!😂❤
Maybe it means exactly what I think… kind of hard for you to know one way or the other, if i never stated what i think it means…i just said i loved it…so kind of a weird statement. But i think i know what YOU mean, so I’m just busting balls🤪🤣🤣
For some stupid reason, I did not carer for this song when I first heard it some time ago, but recently gave it another try, and now I love it! Go figure, but I do love The Killers and can't wait till they come to tour in San Francisco!:))
Lyrics felt like trying the next derivative party drug sold 'legally' in the UK; Narrator is trying to find the next one because they slowly become illegal as law enforcement classifies them "Somebody told me..." takes gossip about the next new drug through imagery of sexuality; boyfriend that looked like & girlfriend -- invoking relationships i.e. 'chemistry' as metaphor within the party scene to describe ecstasy derivatives. each new one is slightly altered chemically, not quite like that one but reminds him of the one from "February of last year" (suggesting valentines day) "rumor ruin my moonlight" a continued metaphor of party night life; the overall context of being high, partying and gossip/relationships. "ready lets roll onto something new" (drugs or hooking up) "heaven ain't close to a place like this" (high as a kite, or lack of, also suggests the scene is not innocent) "pace yourself...all I want to do is try" (going for it, taking more, getting high longer & dancing more) "Rushin' around" ('Rushing' is common UK slang for the Ecstasy high)
It's about writing a song. He's trying to name the track, and it's very difficult but someone when they heard it told him that the track he's writing sounds like the song someone else wrote which sounds like an earlier song he wrote in the February the year earlier. And him rushing around is him trying to figure out if someone actually ripped him and and scrambling to write a new song.
torbach dude. Thats gotta be some bomb lsd you were on when you wrote that. Im pretty sure the song is a about him wanting a girl who has a boyfriend, who is either literally or metaphorically a bitch, and the singer feels he is a much better choice.
“Breaking my back just to know your name” Wow that reminds me when I first met my crush and sense her name rhymed with mine I asked her if she was a stalker-
somebody told me THE WORLD WAS GONNA ROLL ME I AIN'T THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHEEEEEEEED wait..THAT YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND THAT LOOKS LIKE A GIRLFRIEND I HAD IN FEBUARY OF LAST YEAR
Man i miss when they played this on the radio
I remember the times when i was so confused over the lyrics and spent a while trying to interpret what it meant by boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend
Good times
i still don't get it
+youdon'tneedtoreadthis I think it means that the girl he likes turned out to like other girls.
+CupcakeTrueOnYT I think she is just dating a really ugly boy
I'm here because I just heard it on the radio a little bit ago xD
I think it means like, the girl's bf looks like a girl. Like Justin and Selena.
I saw The Killers in a concert in Seattle, Washington on 8/20/2022, and they shook the whole stadium when they sang this song!
My dad was there
@@beanpuf9192 I was there
wait so in the song was it saying his ex was lesbian
Haven't heard this song in years. Thanks for the memories.
you read my thoughts.
i was literally thinking that too
thnks fr th mmrs
+lps meatloaf productions yes
Even tho they weren't so great
See Wht I did there? I'll leave
Oooooh, it's "rumor ruin". I always wondered what the hell a "roomaroo" is.
it's a room made out of kangaroos
Oh, I thought it was "Aroma Room" like some kind of place where you smell stuff lol
Xenko Vence same here bro!
"get that god damn roomaroo out of my moonlight."
Xenko Vence 😂relatable
I know this isn't the point of the song...but to me it sounds like he's singing about doing anything to get the attention of this one girl...only to be told she's dating his ex-girlfriend.
+snow calano Yeah I kind of tought that too
you might just be right "somebody told me that you had a boyfriend who looked like a girlfriend that I had in February of last year" so...
that's exactly my take on it tbh
Or....now hear me out, he accidentally dated someone he thought was a girl but turns out it was a man
@@dannychaos6006😂😂 plot twist
I'm sure this is everyone's favorite part,"Somebody told me, you had a boyfriend, who looked like my girlfriend, that I had February of last year."
arlon rivers nope...breaking my back just to know your name
not mine. Mine is breaking my back just to know your name.
Mine is pace yourself for me i said maybe baby please
Mine is, "never thought I'd let a rumor ruin my moonlight."
Mine is heaven isn't close in a place like this
I love the song, but I absolutely love the line bring it back down, bring it back down tonight, I don't know why, it just sounds awesome :D
AloneintheLight96 yeah along with the rest of the song too. ^_^ I just love this song!!!
I love the line that goes Pace yourself for me I said maybe
baby please
Yeah, and I also have this weird obsession with that part where he says “maybe baby”
and I absolutely*
@@Brigand17 yeah thanks for correcting me, I'm not a English-native speaker.

This song is great. Tbh it sounds like he just found out his ex-girlfriend is a lesbian.

Still my favorite Killers song to this day
Mr. Brightside tops this one for sure
Well... Somebody told me that you got a boyfriend that looks like a girlfriend who looks like my sister
Me dancing to this song at 2am
The demons under my bed and my sleep paralysis demon: what da fug
This song brings back so many memories from my childhood.
Saw them in concert and they performed this. Amazing!
Oh my gosh I didn't notice this was by the killers, now another favorite song from them :3
Yeah, this is my favorite song as well. My dad also has this song on his playlist.
STOP I thought the lyrics were "somebody told me, you had a boyfriend, who looked like a girlfriend, and I had a plan you told me last year" (okay I never actually knew what that last part was) but when I watched this my jaw DROPPED.
I'm gonna cry. After all these years, I still remember (most) of the lyrics, and it's still one of my favorite songs..
Not a Killers fan but I like this song
These things happen
Me to
This and Mr. Brightside are their best and most famous songs
Same
Same as me I remember before my mum died she loved this song

I don’t blame you tbh better music from those decades
Nostalgia sensacional
La chanson commence à dater, mais toujours autant de plaisir à l'écouter !
"...Heaven ain't close in place like this ..."🥺
This song has been stuck in my head for ages.
I feel like none of my friends have even heard of the song and if it ever came on the radio they would just change the channel but I love it
Agreed love my friends but they wouldn’t like the music I love it though
1:08 is the most catchiest part
this song defines ouran highschool host club.
In my head I was like "how in the world is this like Ouran?" But then it hit me. Somebody should make an AMV using this song
Litteraly NoLives its already been done.
I shall agree wit u
Yasss!👏👏👏👏
I don't know who you are but I love you
You guys are too funny.. The only reason why I read the comments
"Ready? Let's roll onto something new, taking its toll and i'm leaving without you" please listen to this part and you gonna cry, guys.
one of the best year when music still alive
2004 was a great year for music, movies and video games indeed

Interesting
My favourite part is the drumming.
I forgot how much I love this song
My late mum loved this song she was quite cool with certain music
Heaven ain’t close in a place like this…i love that line😁
Means more then you think brother
Maybe it means exactly what I think… kind of hard for you to know one way or the other, if i never stated what i think it means…i just said i loved it…so kind of a weird statement. But i think i know what YOU mean, so I’m just busting balls🤪🤣🤣
I love this song!
what a powerfull song i love this group
I'm glad this is still on the radio :D
Måneskin did a cover of this song in XFactor Italy (and I love both version, but more the version of Måneskin😅❤)
That’s nice! To be honest, I like more The Killers’ version. I feel like it has a lot more energy. I love The Killers! ❤️
Yea måneskine is better
1:05 so catchy
I’ve literally been singing “never thought I’d have rooma roo in my whole life” for 10 years.
Why do I have tears in my eyes listening to this?
I know Maneskin version but i discover that it's The Killers just now... wow this is so good!
For some stupid reason, I did not carer for this song when I first heard it some time ago, but recently gave it another try, and now I love it! Go figure, but I do love The Killers and can't wait till they come to tour in San Francisco!:))
You didn’t carer or you didn’t care
Honestly a little surprised they don’t play this at parties and bars. Feel like people would get turnt to it
Best song ever gives me goosebumps listening to this song😢😢😢
This song is fire 🔥🔥

I love this song I'm happy that I found it.
Oooooh, it's "rumor ruin". I was always wondering what the hell a "roomaroo" is.
This song is a huge metaphor, it's actually about writing songs.
