You can hear it it his voice. In a good way. By the way he sounds these days you can tell he’s seen a lot in his lifetime. If you haven’t already heard, listen to Chinatown by Bleachers featuring him. Such a great song.
Sorry for your loss mate. My old man has been a lifetime Springsteen fan and last year he was diagnosed with terminal cancer. This song really got to me as I think it might be played at his funeral when the time comes.
So sorry for your loss and may he always rest in peace. Trust me when you saw and heard this, so did your dad. People we love are always around us, especially when we think of them and miss them from the heart and soul. I always feel my father near when I am in despair.
Look into Brandon and Bruce's eyes. Brandon means and feels every single word he's singing. Bruce looks like he's moved to the point of holding back tears. What pure bittersweet beauty
I've loved this song since Day & Age came out in 2008 and I wasn't prepared for how powerful this collaboration was going to be. Proud to have been moved to tears by this.
@@niallfogarty8719 if you listen to the words you’ll realise Bruce is singing it & thinking about his mother who has Alzheimer’s, this song means a lot to both singers !
Brandon wrote this song about his mother who died and Bruce's mom is very ill so it's so fitting that Bruce wanted to record this with Brandon. gorgeous rendition and the video is perfection
This is one of my all time favorite Killer's song and Springsteen is my all time favorite artist. Growing up with Springsteen's musical magic coloured my world and shaped my hopes and dreams like the characters in his songs. I remember listening to the record "Live 1975-85" over and over with my headphones on, eyes closed, and dreamed to one day to see Springsteen live and sing along to every word he sang. The dream came true and the energy and magic of every Springsteen live show is like some spiritual experience. So all these years passed to see this collaboration, the energy, the soul, the passion in Dustland captured so majestically, keeps me dreaming and keeps my soul alive...thanks for the music, the art and magic...
Like you, I'm a Bruce fan since I was a teenager, (a long time ago 😊) and have recently taken out that live 75-85 album, and my God, I'd forgotten how absolutely brilliant it is... It's a true work of art.. Health and peace from a Bruce fan in Ireland..
@@loftusboy9 Thanks so much for sharing! Yes, I have such fond memories of listening to those live performances. The energy he brings is amazing!! Love the Irish people. Much peace and happiness to you from New Zealand!
We're Bruce long time fan. It's too bad I live in the other side of the world where is rare to find a great gig. Every year my New Year resolution would list "seeing a Bruce Springsteen's concert" but it never happens😭
Same here Rob, I remember listening to that live album as a teenager. When Bruce talks about his dad, I think before independence day, it's an amazing story . My dad died when I was 15, Bruce as my father had before guided me and his songs inspired me and gave me a purpose at a vulnerable time in my life . I now have a 10yr old son named after my dad and his middle name is Bruce in honour of the great man.
Well maybe it just didn't have a happy ending so Brandon doesn't want to call it that anymore. Devils and Dust by Springsteen might be a good follow up tune to listen to.
This collaboration hits so much harder that it came out after Pressure Machine. The longer The Killers are around, the more impressed I am by them. They have become so incredible with their songs and stories, and they were AWESOME back with the first album. Seriously such an incredible band. Two greats to take on one classic song. 10/10. A+.
Man, before Pressure Machine those few songs stood out just a bit. But now they’re a show of how mature the Killers are and always have been. That’s exactly why I really like Pressure Machine. It’s got the depth of Sam’s Town and Day and Age combined with the sound of Battleborn, and the voice of Hot Fuss. Just an amazing culmination of what the Killers have made.
@@tyronemckie4628 it means you have goosebumps and the hair on your arm goes up, I heard it first when I was watching an interview of Sammy Hagar and Eddie Van Halen and Eddie was saying the fur went up on his arm when they were writing a song.
Brandon wrings every bit of emotion in him into this song. This song made me sob. The showdown is raging. When he sings "don't you go to sleep... it's such a bitter form of refuge" and "don't you know the kingdom's under siege... and everybody needs you" It punched me right in the heart.
My interpretation is: “Now Cinderella don’t you go to sleep” Please(loved one) don’t die “Well don’t you know the kingdom’s under siege, and everybody needs you” Our family(kingdom) is falling apart without the loved one (Cinderella)
Can’t believe Bruce is 71 - he’s doing well for that age. His voice has aged but like with Johnny Cash that ain’t a bad thing but part of the growth as an artist.
My life is complete, I’ve seen The Killers, I WILL see Bruce in 2023, now I just need to see them perform live together. I’m 35 and I credit The Killers with introducing me to Springsteen and I’ve never looked back. Not once. Know all his songs and his B-sides off by heart. A true legend
The Killers - Their songs are not just music. They are works of art. Wow, do their songs touch us in so many different ways. The best band this century in my opinion.
This song always make me emotional. If you know the meaning of this song youll heart will be broken again and again everytime you listen to it. And how Brandon painfully sings “Oh Cinderella dont you go to sleep, it’s such a bitter form of refuge. Dont you know the kingdom’s under siege, everybody needs you..” 😢😢😢😢
So much yes! I got goosebumps the very first time I heard "When You Were Young". As a lifelong Bruce fan and a newer Killers fan at the time, it was mind-blowing to me because...oh man... that for me was a moment, it felt like a Springsteen torch being passed on to a new generation. To this day I still cant unhear Bruce's influence pulsing through that entire song... So much love for this collab.
My heart soars when I hear this. So many Killers songs have that Bruce sound that permeates working class life. As a Killers fan from New Jersey, this made my whole week, and will probably be my favorite release this year.
I love how Brandon thought it was a joke when he received a text message from Bruce Springsteen asking for a collab. This is how humble these guys are. Two of my favourite musicians combining for an epic song.
The Killers are the only current band that is underrated, it should even outperform many current bands that went generic like Coldplay. The Killers is a relic in modern times, unfortunately they make music for the love of art, it is not seen that they do it for money, beyond obvious earnings, for me one of the best bands today.
@@CuriosidadSinLimites I take great offence at that, but what can I do, arguing over these things just makes us dumber. But you’d need to listen to “everyday life” before saying it’s generic. It certainly was one of the best albums of 2019, if not the best.
Few months after my dad died i moved away from home for work and used to drive several hundred kms a week. I had all Killers music and this kind of got stuck in my head. There have been days where i drove for hours with this on repeat and tears in my eyes.
3:12 "Don't you know the kingdom's under siege and everybody needs you." Brandon's voice cracks just a bit, it makes me cry. I lost my dad at 24; we always thought my ma was the one that held us together but it wasn't - it was my dad. We were the type of family that just liked hanging out at the house, even as teens and in our 20's. I have two brothers; one is nine years old, the other is three years older and my sister is seven years older. Our friends would come over too. On top of that, my dad INSISTED on inviting our extended family over for holidays and just to check-in - usually 30-40 relatives. None of that has happened since his funeral - almost 13yrs ago.
This song just completely blew me away, doesnt happen often nowadays. As somebody said they perform the hell out of this song. Every line in this song is sang from the heart, two performers at the top of their song. God bless that we have been blessed with this beautiful song. The boss and the killers once in a lifetime collaboration. Goosebumps
Thanks to the original music video, this song in its new collaboration feels so complete. Like, both ends of the character from the original MV's are coming together to tell the story of their regret and acceptance of reality. There's a reason why The Killers have been my favorite band for twenty years.
I have all of Springsteen’s and the Killers’ albums on my shelf, being listening to Bruce since my father played it first in our living room when I was two years old, and I discovered The Killers back in 2008. This made me cry, something that music hasn’t done to me in a long while
@@wannabepoet9647 for me when i grew up it was a lot of Beatles songs and Jimi Hendrixx all day long...my father played guitar and i sit in front of him ..he was my HERO !!!
Very similar story for me too, been so lucky to see them both live.. Grew up with Bruce's music as a child and then i discovered the killers in their early days and in my youth . My 2 favs, excellant heart felt energetic version. Dreams do come true.
Take a look at the meaning behind the song and the lyrics. He does the same thing with sweet talk because those songs are so important to him. He is possibly the best song writer I have ever known.
@@insertusernamehere9023Yes, that explains the urgence indeed. Though i'm not sure if i completely understand the lyrics. Who "cinderella" is, is pretty clear. I dont know many uptempo songs that give me the chills the way this song does. Its only the fourth Killers-song i got to know. But i must have heard this one live when they played Pinkpop festival in 2009. Later Brandon returned on stage with Bruce Springsteen.
As tragically sad a song as this is for Brandon you can see the emotion in Bruce's face as well; this also touched him in some profound way, much like Johnny Cash with his rendition of "Hurt". Bruce is truly singing from the depth of his heart. Greatness recognizes greatness, and when they combine, it's something special and, in this case, devastatingly beautiful... This is one for the ages...
I think a lot of that comes from the difference in perspective that comes with age, its one thing to write a song about something, it's another thing to live it. Just as 'Hurt' meant something completely different to Johnny Cash than it did to Trent Reznor
I'm in tears. This is simply amazing. My favorite killers music video now. The expressions on Bruce's face really hit home with those feeling of mortality.
No other song has touched my soul as this one. I can just cry cos Brandon here sings it with one of my all time fave singer, Bruce Springsteen. Thank you for this Brandon Flowers!
Just throwing this out there: a full collaboration album with both bands would be one of the greatest things in Rock history... but we'll take this for the moment

@@iab8066 The Killers don't really get talked about a lot because rock isn't as prevalent in pop culture as it used to be. If you grew up when rock music was massive and rock stars were always in the news and being talked about it can feel like The Killers are massively underrated.
Imploding the mirage was such a beautiful album, an epic. This is the natural progression stemming all the way back from When You Were Young. I am in tears listening to this again and again. Springsteen’s voice and music has always been uniquely American and powerful. Y’all can’t tell me y’all wouldn’t love to hear Flowers sing Born in the USA or Dancing in the Dark, or listen to Springsteen in his prime sing When you were young. This was always meant to be and I am here for it.
This gave me chills. And tears. The Killers have written a song that could have been penned by the Boss himself. And they got him to feature on it. Most of the tears were the song, but some were definitely for seeing music played at Velour Live Music Gallery again. And for seeing some of our homegrown superstars sitting in. Thank you for this 💚 Now I'm going to go watch it another 20 times.
Actually it was Bruce who contacted Brandon about doing this song together. Brandon wrote it while his mother was dying from brain cancer. Bruce has been a big influence on Brandon and the Killers. It's a perfect collaboration.
@@gracefindsgoodness Indeed Bruce did and he and Brandon are friends now. They are kindred spirits and never resorted to the vulgarity of current pop music. Decent men make great music.
Sweet holy hand grenade, that’s the collaboration I never knew I needed to hear. Now I have it’s clear I’ve been waiting my entire life to hear something so majestic. Hairs on the back of my neck stood up and tingled as I listened. Sublime hardly covers it.
The music itself is enough. The song is enough. It's a classic. But knowing what having Bruce sing this song with him must mean to Brandon, makes this version so powerful.
Brandon wrote the song for his mother who died of cancer. Bruce's mom has dementia and the song touched him so much that he wanted to record it with Brandon.
The boss has been one of THE greatest songwriters for decades and has always recognised/appreciated/respected that talent in others.. Great songs and the craft of great songwriting regardless of who or the genre, I think he sees a kindred spirit in Brandon. Imho.. Superb collaboration
When this song first came out I was always trying to play it with Springsteen's voice in my mind, even imitating it when there weren't people in the house. This is a dream come true.
I can't come up with the words to describe how this song makes me feel.. but,it's in Brandon and Bruce's eyes .. first Bruce is hands down my favorite artist of all time .. and since Sam's Town I've thought The Killers may be one of the last threads in the Jacket of Rock and Roll.. I'm 51 and I'll never forget how the summer of 84 felt.. what a magical time . .. 'Dancing In The Dark ' hit me like a bolt of lightning !.. who was this guy ?.. Bruce is the last man standing from that wonderful summer .. I don't think I'll ever get over the death of Prince and of course Bruce being the humble person he is gave not the greatest version of' Purple Rain' but,the most heart felt by miles.. to a man he knew was probably the Greatest musical Artist of all time ( yes, Bruce is mine but, I know Prince was unmatched as far as musical talent goes ).. I wish they could have done something together.. I think it would have made me feel the way this song does.. The Killers and Bruce love what they do, they appreciate that they are lucky enough to make a living ( a very good one !) performing and it shows .. it's in Brandon's eye's and that smile that he can't keep contained and well, Bruce is far from done .. these past few years has stolen his "medicine " and I can not wait till he hits the first few chords of ' Ramrod ' !.. I've got a good feeling this isn't a one time collaboration.. Bruce may be finally ready to ease up and do a 2 hour show and if that is the case.. who better to take on a little of the weight than The Killers !!!
I just love this so much! Day and age got me through the grieving process when I lost my Grandaddy in 2010. I remember listening to this song on repeat accompanied by "Goodnight travel well". This version makes me so grateful for artist! The emotion through excellent imagery. Thank you🥰
When 2 fantastic musical storytellers do a song together like this it’s just awesome. I’m a big killers fan but this could easily have been a Bruce song it just sounds right
Two comets collided and this is what we got !!. .. Brandon sings with such passion..he reminds me of someone... someone who really cares about giving his all....Some once in a lifetime talent.. who is it ?...I'm blanking...wait.. that's him.. that older gentleman .. yeah that's the guy... Bruuuuuuuce....... So proud of Brandon and The Killers .. they just seem to get better.. I think Bruce has had a small hand in it..
Brandon Flowers and Bruce Springsteen! I really do hope Bruce will give EU tour in 2022! This reminds me of a young Brian Fallon singing with his idol! No Surrender!
The entire song is amazing and their colab is a dream , but when The Boss starts singing at 1:02 ... that's out of this world, I can't express the way it makes me feel ❤❤❤
Another epic one for the books. What a song, what a collab. The lyrics just draw you into the story and the musical accompaniment was performed to perfection. I need to see the killers live once again.
YESSSSSS!!!! Been waiting for a Killers-Springsteen collab for so long Edit: And it’s as amazing as expected. Two of the greatest and most distinctive voices in music and they work so well together
I wouldn't have placed Bruce with Killers. Both are amazing. Killers don't get the recognition they deserve. Bruce offcource is Amazing. The River is one of my all time Fav albums. I hope this reaches the Chart and gets the Radio airplay it deserves.

You can hear it it his voice. In a good way. By the way he sounds these days you can tell he’s seen a lot in his lifetime. If you haven’t already heard, listen to Chinatown by Bleachers featuring him. Such a great song.
He’s aged very gracefully, both physically and musically. Aged, yes, but still intact and strong.

So sorry for your loss and may he always rest in peace. Trust me when you saw and heard this, so did your dad. People we love are always around us, especially when we think of them and miss them from the heart and soul. I always feel my father near when I am in despair.

Remember Bruce’s own mother has Alzheimer’s so not long for this earth ,so I guess singing this song has the same effects as it does Brandon
Some sort of amazing chemistry and very deep feeling flow freely between you both. Amazing to hear, but to see the intent is something else.

Totally agree with you Sam's town sounds like a Springsteen album.
You have the bridge of When You Were Young which was inspired by the bridge of Born to Run
My ego has soared. I have the words "Sam's Town" in the same font on my wrist. Showed Brandon and Ronnie.

The song is about Brandon's parents. I was thinking he removed "fairytale" because his mom died of cancer since it was originally recorded.

From this version I have purchased all the albums from the Killers. Thanks Bruce for being my inspiration and for let me know about The Killers!!!
This is your introduction to the killers? Oh mijo- you are in for a trip.
Oh man, this is my favourite ever Killers song, and to have Brandon and Bruce singing it? 🤩
Exactly how I feel. Tears in my eyes.
Me too! It's been my favourite Killers song since I was a kid, it's so gorgeous live 😍 and Bruce Springsteen??? Hell yeah
Their voices sound great together

@madarichards Do you understand how recording music works? Lol
That’s because Flowers has been doing an impression of Bruce since day 1
Bien
Que maravilla
Few months after my dad died i moved away from home for work and used to drive several hundred kms a week. I had all Killers music and this kind of got stuck in my head. There have been days where i drove for hours with this on repeat and tears in my eyes.
3:12 "Don't you know the kingdom's under siege and everybody needs you." Brandon's voice cracks just a bit, it makes me cry. I lost my dad at 24; we always thought my ma was the one that held us together but it wasn't - it was my dad. We were the type of family that just liked hanging out at the house, even as teens and in our 20's. I have two brothers; one is nine years old, the other is three years older and my sister is seven years older. Our friends would come over too. On top of that, my dad INSISTED on inviting our extended family over for holidays and just to check-in - usually 30-40 relatives. None of that has happened since his funeral - almost 13yrs ago.
This song just completely blew me away, doesnt happen often nowadays.
As somebody said they perform the hell out of this song.
Every line in this song is sang from the heart, two performers at the top of their song.
God bless that we have been blessed with this beautiful song.
The boss and the killers once in a lifetime collaboration. Goosebumps
Marion,
I have no need to submit my opinion.You have done it for me.
Thanks to the original music video, this song in its new collaboration feels so complete. Like, both ends of the character from the original MV's are coming together to tell the story of their regret and acceptance of reality. There's a reason why The Killers have been my favorite band for twenty years.
I have all of Springsteen’s and the Killers’ albums on my shelf, being listening to Bruce since my father played it first in our living room when I was two years old, and I discovered The Killers back in 2008. This made me cry, something that music hasn’t done to me in a long while

nice words... music connected ;=)
@@PeterPanimKetaWahn absolutely
@@wannabepoet9647 for me when i grew up it was a lot of Beatles songs and Jimi Hendrixx all day long...my father played guitar and i sit in front of him ..he was my HERO !!!
Very similar story for me too, been so lucky to see them both live.. Grew up with Bruce's music as a child and then i discovered the killers in their early days and in my youth . My 2 favs, excellant heart felt energetic version. Dreams do come true.
I'm very glad that they have chosen one of the most underrated The Killers's song. I love it.
Heart sang the most iconic rock song to the most iconic rock band, and that iconic rock band gave you a standing ovation, WOW!
Bruce is my God, the Killers are my angels ! Now they are singing together one of my favorite songs - This must be heaven !!!
I love the "urgence" in Brandon's face when he is singing this
Take a look at the meaning behind the song and the lyrics. He does the same thing with sweet talk because those songs are so important to him. He is possibly the best song writer I have ever known.
@@insertusernamehere9023Yes, that explains the urgence indeed. Though i'm not sure if i completely understand the lyrics. Who "cinderella" is, is pretty clear. I dont know many uptempo songs that give me the chills the way this song does. Its only the fourth Killers-song i got to know. But i must have heard this one live when they played Pinkpop festival in 2009. Later Brandon returned on stage with Bruce Springsteen.
@@insertusernamehere9023 Thanks for the tip by the way. Sweet Talk (Live Albert Hall 2009) is a brilliant song also !
I love how serious they both are, you can tell how they are pouring their emotion into it.
Man, this how you wanna start the day. It feels renewed but classic at the same time, love it !!
This brought me to tears. Magnificent. Incredibly moving knowing that Brandon wrote this in memory of his mother.
As tragically sad a song as this is for Brandon you can see the emotion in Bruce's face as well; this also touched him in some profound way, much like Johnny Cash with his rendition of "Hurt". Bruce is truly singing from the depth of his heart.
Greatness recognizes greatness, and when they combine, it's something special and, in this case, devastatingly beautiful...
This is one for the ages...
I think a lot of that comes from the difference in perspective that comes with age, its one thing to write a song about something, it's another thing to live it. Just as 'Hurt' meant something completely different to Johnny Cash than it did to Trent Reznor
Brandon wrote this for his mom, Bruce sings it for his wife
"Castles in the sky sit stranded, vandalized..". That lyric felt like a punch in the gut.
One of my favorite lyrics
I can't say if I'm happier for hearing this or for you guys playing with your hero. Much love from Slovenia and see you on tour ☀️
I know they don’t probably read this; But they saved my life.
Maybe they don't read your message, but we did, and we appreciate your bravery
I'm in tears. This is simply amazing. My favorite killers music video now. The expressions on Bruce's face really hit home with those feeling of mortality.
That album is a classic. Maybe a rock classic. Sing along..
No other song has touched my soul as this one. I can just cry cos Brandon here sings it with one of my all time fave singer, Bruce Springsteen. Thank you for this Brandon Flowers!
Just throwing this out there: a full collaboration album with both bands would be one of the greatest things in Rock history... but we'll take this for the moment
Indeed.
Yassss!! We need more!! At least do Sam's Town
The E Street Band and The Killers together would be better than sex!! OMG!!!!

The beauty is not only in the sound of their voices together, to me is in the truth of emotions that only good people can spread. Love them!
I’m a big killers fan but I honestly never listened to this song until the collab with Springsteen… and WOW. I’m blown away
When they both sing together, they create a new voice. I couldnt separate one from another. It was weird, but then i realized it was beautiful. My mother know for my love to The Killers, and now shes gonna blow her mind off when she listens to Springsteen.
Thanks The Killers! You rock!

Finally! I'm sure Brandon realizes one of his greatest dreams, considering how Springsteen has influenced his style!
KILLERS IS HIGHLY UNDERRATED, Man . This band stirs emotions like nobody🔥
How can you call one of the most popular alternative rock acts of 21st century underrated? I guess people don't know what underrated means
@@iab8066 The Killers don't really get talked about a lot because rock isn't as prevalent in pop culture as it used to be. If you grew up when rock music was massive and rock stars were always in the news and being talked about it can feel like The Killers are massively underrated.
Underrated by Americans is the way to say it . Most Americans have never even heard of the Killers .
Yes I agree . I’m wondering if Bruce did this to give a little boost during the pandemic
I was thinking the same they arnt underrated u fool 😵😵
Imploding the mirage was such a beautiful album, an epic.
This is the natural progression stemming all the way back from When You Were Young.
I am in tears listening to this again and again. Springsteen’s voice and music has always been uniquely American and powerful. Y’all can’t tell me y’all wouldn’t love to hear Flowers sing Born in the USA or Dancing in the Dark, or listen to Springsteen in his prime sing When you were young. This was always meant to be and I am here for it.
This song has some of the best lyrics of all time!! It blows me away just listening to all the words!!
This gave me chills. And tears. The Killers have written a song that could have been penned by the Boss himself. And they got him to feature on it. Most of the tears were the song, but some were definitely for seeing music played at Velour Live Music Gallery again. And for seeing some of our homegrown superstars sitting in. Thank you for this 💚
Now I'm going to go watch it another 20 times.
Actually it was Bruce who contacted Brandon about doing this song together. Brandon wrote it while his mother was dying from brain cancer. Bruce has been a big influence on Brandon and the Killers. It's a perfect collaboration.
@@lauried.7714 That makes me happy. I want to believe that Springsteen heard enough of himself in this song that he knew he had to do it.
@@gracefindsgoodness Indeed Bruce did and he and Brandon are friends now. They are kindred spirits and never resorted to the vulgarity of current pop music. Decent men make great music.
Sweet holy hand grenade, that’s the collaboration I never knew I needed to hear. Now I have it’s clear I’ve been waiting my entire life to hear something so majestic. Hairs on the back of my neck stood up and tingled as I listened. Sublime hardly covers it.
This is just something else, I’ve got those neck hair vibes too, this is truly something special
Gave me chills

Wen waiting forever! My 2 fav singers collaboratate!! 🤗🥰💜
Omg, sus voces son increíbles, los amo. Grupo espectacular.
The music itself is enough. The song is enough. It's a classic. But knowing what having Bruce sing this song with him must mean to Brandon, makes this version so powerful.
Brandon wrote the song for his mother who died of cancer. Bruce's mom has dementia and the song touched him so much that he wanted to record it with Brandon.
The boss has been one of THE greatest songwriters for decades and has always recognised/appreciated/respected that talent in others.. Great songs and the craft of great songwriting regardless of who or the genre, I think he sees a kindred spirit in Brandon. Imho.. Superb collaboration
When this song first came out I was always trying to play it with Springsteen's voice in my mind, even imitating it when there weren't people in the house. This is a dream come true.
The Icons ft. The Legend.
Sahi ho bro👊
THE KILLERS DUSTLAND FT BRUCE OFFICAL VOCALSth-cam.com/video/E5K5DNyusBkc/w-d-xo.html
I can't come up with the words to describe how this song makes me feel.. but,it's in Brandon and Bruce's eyes .. first Bruce is hands down my favorite artist of all time .. and since Sam's Town I've thought The Killers may be one of the last threads in the Jacket of Rock and Roll.. I'm 51 and I'll never forget how the summer of 84 felt.. what a magical time . .. 'Dancing In The Dark ' hit me like a bolt of lightning !.. who was this guy ?.. Bruce is the last man standing from that wonderful summer .. I don't think I'll ever get over the death of Prince and of course Bruce being the humble person he is gave not the greatest version of' Purple Rain' but,the most heart felt by miles.. to a man he knew was probably the Greatest musical Artist of all time ( yes, Bruce is mine but, I know Prince was unmatched as far as musical talent goes ).. I wish they could have done something together.. I think it would have made me feel the way this song does.. The Killers and Bruce love what they do, they appreciate that they are lucky enough to make a living ( a very good one !) performing and it shows .. it's in Brandon's eye's and that smile that he can't keep contained and well, Bruce is far from done .. these past few years has stolen his "medicine " and I can not wait till he hits the first few chords of ' Ramrod ' !.. I've got a good feeling this isn't a one time collaboration.. Bruce may be finally ready to ease up and do a 2 hour show and if that is the case.. who better to take on a little of the weight than The Killers !!!
I just love this so much! Day and age got me through the grieving process when I lost my Grandaddy in 2010. I remember listening to this song on repeat accompanied by "Goodnight travel well". This version makes me so grateful for artist! The emotion through excellent imagery. Thank you🥰
Same here sis. Killers been wit me since they came out in 04. Knew I'd never stop listening to them since the first time I heard Mr. Brightside.
Music has that power. Especially when there is soul and feeling in it. May your grand-dad's spirit always be close.

When 2 fantastic musical storytellers do a song together like this it’s just awesome. I’m a big killers fan but this could easily have been a Bruce song it just sounds right
Two comets collided and this is what we got !!. .. Brandon sings with such passion..he reminds me of someone... someone who really cares about giving his all....Some once in a lifetime talent.. who is it ?...I'm blanking...wait.. that's him.. that older gentleman .. yeah that's the guy... Bruuuuuuuce....... So proud of Brandon and The Killers .. they just seem to get better.. I think Bruce has had a small hand in it..
El Jefe y The Killers juntos una obra de arte. Simplemente maravilloso. Gracias por tanto.
This masterpiece is out of this world... Imagine this live 💕
Genius....Killers and 'The Boss '....achingly poignant , beautiful and yet hopeful....wonderful
Brandon Flowers and Bruce Springsteen! I really do hope Bruce will give EU tour in 2022! This reminds me of a young Brian Fallon singing with his idol! No Surrender!

The entire song is amazing and their colab is a dream , but when The Boss starts singing at 1:02 ... that's out of this world, I can't express the way it makes me feel ❤❤❤
That's the thing. it's all about the "weight" that Bruce brings...
Das ist bei bruce zu hause in der Scheune
Two amazing story tellers. Which is rare in Todays music.
When Bruce Springsteen is in there, you know it's going to be good.
I love The Killers so much.
I'm not crying, you're crying
Another epic one for the books. What a song, what a collab. The lyrics just draw you into the story and the musical accompaniment was performed to perfection. I need to see the killers live once again.
YESSSSSS!!!! Been waiting for a Killers-Springsteen collab for so long
Edit: And it’s as amazing as expected. Two of the greatest and most distinctive voices in music and they work so well together
th-cam.com/video/Wnb_zxHC7LA/w-d-xo.html
I wouldn't have placed Bruce with Killers. Both are amazing. Killers don't get the recognition they deserve. Bruce offcource is Amazing. The River is one of my all time Fav albums. I hope this reaches the Chart and gets the Radio airplay it deserves.
My own mother died of cancer when I was roughly the same age as Brandon when he lost his mother. This song brings tears to my eyes every time. 😢
JESUS CHRIST, that was amazing. **throws it on again and again**
Me too!
