    I mean.....how fuckin good is this song, how the guitar hits n vibrates through your soul, the lyrics "farewell black balloon, let the weather have its way with you" is pure magic especially cuts a lil deeper if your either an addict, recovering addict n that lifelong battle that we all fight n lose n win some, to fall again n again only to get back up to fight wit what you got left each time! Kills definitely meet the criteria for what punk stood for. As more time passes they will only become a bigger n bigger influence on future bands without a doubt! Great great band!!

    Elevator straight into my skull
    The escalator rises as it falls
    I swear our chant is crashing in my mind
    You can hold on but I wouldn't waste your time
    Farewell my black balloon
    Farewell my black balloon
    I've stood in a thousand street scenes
    Just around the corner from you
    On the edge of a dream that you have
    Has anybody ever told you it's not coming, true?
    Farewell my black balloon
    Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
    Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
    Farewell my black balloon
    Da, da, da, da...
    Ah, ah, ah, ah...
    Farewell my black balloon
    Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
    Farewell my black balloon, the weather had it's way with you
    Farewell my black balloon

  • @sayspain
    @sayspain 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @davidian5 They look different to my eyes, but I think that he is using really heavy strings like 11's or 12's which have really great tones, deeper bass more rounded sound but are tougher to the guitar since they cause a lot more tension.

The Kills have a minimalism post-punk approach while The Killers are really upbeat, catchy, and have synth-driven rock style. *sigh* Oh well, at least I know you have great taste in music my friend. =)
