Very few artists can sound like they do on their album, and Brandon is def one of them. No auto tune bullshit needed for his voice . He (in my opinion) is one of the best singers ever.
i know it's crazy how similarly he sings live compared the recorded songs. Especially now when autotune is so prominent, hearing him live is just amazing.
@@Stark-Raving I think the mixture of animation and live action with the same characters in the Mr. Brightside video they use for the video for this song, it's the same person looking back at the same moment in time, but with a new point of view, clearer, yet still emotional, as he says in the lyrics - "The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear Miss Atomic Bomb".
three years later, this song still bring tears to my eyes. dunno why. the singer's melancolic voice maybe ? a masterpiece, to listen to again and again
To everyone who is hating on the crowd... I've been to show tapings. Not Letterman, but others similar. The crowd was likely instructed to act subdued during the filming so to not interfere with the performance. It's not like a concert. You get a major tutorial how to behave before filming begins and anyone who acts out is immediately removed and it's all edited out. Hell, before you even come they send a dress code to your house. You are instructed on what colors are appropriate to wear or even what style. It's very specific and you are judged by assistants the instant you walk in the door even as to even where you sit, because only the ones they choose appear on camera in the sweeping crowd shots. This is a great performance, but the crowd acted as directed if they wanted to stay.
Back when they shot, Martha Stewart and Tyra Banks sent dress codes in e-mail. Certain colors would not be tolerated and honestly Tyra gave me a Gap sweater to cover the fact that they hated my green polo shirt.
I love this band a lot. It frustrates me how criminally underrated they are even though they're considered mainstream music. But I do remember Brandon saying in an interview that he wanted The Killers to stay that way. Gotta respect that
all that matters is what they mean to you man. they still making music to this day thats also all that matters. they have had enough success to have a long career with amazing music. enjoy it man not many bands have a legacy like the killers do.
Why do every time I watch a live of The Killers, I feel like I'm hearing the studio version of their songs ? I mean. Brandon Flowers is a fucking machine.
You were standing with your girlfriends in the street Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies When I look back on those neon lights The leather seats, the passage rite I feel the heat, I see the light Miss Atomic Bomb Making out, we've got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows under moonlight Through the desert on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah, we were innocent and young Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love Holdin' on for your life All that I wanted was a little touch, A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time Miss Atomic Bomb Making out we've got the radio on You're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're gonna miss me when I'm gone Racing shadows under moonlight We're taking chances on a hot night And for a second there we'd won Yeah we were innocent and young The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here Sweat on my skin And this love that I've cradled Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb) But I'm standing here and you're too late Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back (it's a proving ground) You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn it to chance) Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a loser's game) You should have seen your little face, burning for love, (Miss Atomic Bomb) Holdin' on for your life But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch) When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much) There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time)
You can tell he's having a ball singing this song. I know he always puts his passion into every song but it's more so in this song than I've ever seen.
If he isn't lip singing (I know he isn't), then he is probably the best live singer I've heard yet, at least in terms of sounding like the studio version. That's impressive.
This song is gorgeous. The emotions evoked by the melody, the lyrics, and his voice are a rush of bittersweet nostalgia. The power of his voice can move mountains.
Gracias the killers!!! Una de mis bandas favoritas gracias por acompañarme en buenos y malos momentos, tuve la suerte de verlos este año y mereció todo, puro talento! Flowers y compañía en vivo suenan espectacular.
these guys are just incredible!!!!!!to sound like that live i think theyre the best band since bono and u2!!!!they can only get better!!!!oh yeah and brandons voice holy shit that guy can sing!!
yet another top song by a real class group one of the best around in my opinion, this song is sung with such emotion this guy's voice !! he expressses such passion and feelings throughout the song he gives it enormous energy ?? very powerful peformance i love it big time !!!
The killers. Wow. His voice the tunes the album's. Love them all. Hope this covid soon goes away so I can go see them live. Are we Human is very poignant to me. As my dad died 7 years ago and just loved that song. Bless you all. Craig.

lemonyfresh26 why is this true???
@@joinks8309 what a strange comment??
i know it's crazy how similarly he sings live compared the recorded songs. Especially now when autotune is so prominent, hearing him live is just amazing.
True!
There's a sound engineer behind this live recording , don't forget
Best song the Killers have ever made.Best song anyone has ever made.A masterpiece like nothing else.
I agree
tty agreed MrB is also awesome, have to admit it!
Agreed. They should always have it on their set lists.
couldn't of said it better myself..its an amazing story!
Graeme Doyle tbhhhhh 😭😭😭😭😍😍
3:40 Mr.Brightside-like guitar riff and I officialy died.
Right!?!?! Totally blew my mind.
Sydon or a sequel, depending on which way you look at it
It's neither a sequel nor a prequel. Miss Atomic Bomb is the reality, Mr Brightside is the fantasy that tore said reality apart.
@@Stark-Raving I think the mixture of animation and live action with the same characters in the Mr. Brightside video they use for the video for this song, it's the same person looking back at the same moment in time, but with a new point of view, clearer, yet still emotional, as he says in the lyrics - "The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
Miss Atomic Bomb".
it was the sequel.. i am having goosebumps...
This song NEEDS to be played more at their concerts! It’s one of the bests songs from The Killers⚡️👏🏼
Brandon's voice sounds strong and vulnerable at the same time. IT's amazing.
three years later, this song still bring tears to my eyes. dunno why. the singer's melancolic voice maybe ? a masterpiece, to listen to again and again
+pascal nuevayork probably the lyrics and the melody
Settle down.
Totally agree
pascal nuevayork same😭😭😭

THIS! It was like that for Ellen, and also Craig Kilborn. Well, except they didn't send a dress code to my house. :)
Back when they shot, Martha Stewart and Tyra Banks sent dress codes in e-mail. Certain colors would not be tolerated and honestly Tyra gave me a Gap sweater to cover the fact that they hated my green polo shirt.
It's a slower song anyway so they don't need to be hollering and jumping around.
Plus watch the other letterman performance vids. The crowd goes crazy in those. This one was prob televised so they were told to keep calm
I absolutely love his voice. Sounds so melancolic like he's about to cry but at the same time strong ❤

Even before the Mr. Brightside riff comes in, the song's pure, uncanny, PAINFUL nostalgia. But when that riff comes-AHH-it's hard to stop the tears!
god dammit bro, I was crying like a children .. the killers best band I've ever seen in my life
Brandon's voice is just perfect, and so is this song. Favourite band ever

You were standing with your girlfriends in the street
Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be
I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes
I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirls' lies
When I look back on those neon lights
The leather seats, the passage rite
I feel the heat, I see the light
Miss Atomic Bomb
Making out, we've got the radio on
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Racing shadows under moonlight
Through the desert on a hot night
And for a second there we'd won
Yeah, we were innocent and young
Cast out of the night, well you've got a foolish heart
So you took your place but the fall from grace was the hardest part
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black
You should have seen your little face, burnin' for love
Holdin' on for your life
All that I wanted was a little touch,
A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much, no
Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time
Miss Atomic Bomb
Making out we've got the radio on
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
Racing shadows under moonlight
We're taking chances on a hot night
And for a second there we'd won
Yeah we were innocent and young
The dust cloud has settled, and my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
Miss Atomic Bomb, I'm standing here
Sweat on my skin
And this love that I've cradled
Is wearing thin (Miss Atomic Bomb)
But I'm standing here and you're too late
Your shock-wave whisper has sealed your fate
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back (it's a proving ground)
You run for cover but you can't escape the second attack (and you turn it to chance)
Your soul was innocent, she kissed him and she painted it black (on a loser's game)
You should have seen your little face, burning for love,
(Miss Atomic Bomb)
Holdin' on for your life
But you can't survive (All that I wanted was a little touch)
When you want it all (A little tenderness and truth, I didn't ask for much)
There's another side (Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time)
What I love the most about this band is that they sound exactly as perfect as their studio recording everytime
You can tell he's having a ball singing this song. I know he always puts his passion into every song but it's more so in this song than I've ever seen.
If he isn't lip singing (I know he isn't), then he is probably the best live singer I've heard yet, at least in terms of sounding like the studio version. That's impressive.
Brandon's voice and story telling cuts through my heart
Pronto tendré el privilegio de escucharlos aquí en mi ciudad 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Una banda hermosa!❤
for the first minutes I was trying to focus if this was live!! Man.. the real singer,,, no auto tunes.. no shit words.. and no bullshit.. big applause
....sitting in the dark listening to the Killers, tears rolling down my face...
This song is gorgeous. The emotions evoked by the melody, the lyrics, and his voice are a rush of bittersweet nostalgia. The power of his voice can move mountains.
Beautiful song
one of the killers' songs that I hear over and over again, never get bored...love this song so much! "you're gonna miss me when I'm gone" yaaay!
his voice is heavenly
I'd probably cry if I saw them live. Not only because I love them but also because ALL their songs make me feel a certain type of way 😢😢😢
The Killers are amazing. Pure talent. I love them, so much. They deserved a lot more recognition than what this crowd gave them.
Wow...I've never heard someone with such a spectacular natural voice, and with such songwriting talent :') ♥
Julian casablancas is awesome too
That voice is unlike any other.
2:32 ❤
Forever my no 1 song
This song is beautiful. Bittersweet perfection. Dream is to cover this professionally.
Gracias the killers!!! Una de mis bandas favoritas gracias por acompañarme en buenos y malos momentos, tuve la suerte de verlos este año y mereció todo, puro talento! Flowers y compañía en vivo suenan espectacular.

3:32 The guitar sounds like Mr. Brightside, but the sound is different.
there needs to be a sequel to this where they get together!!
The Killers what more can I say, the love for this band is unexplainable and album after album it leaves me wanting more.
For me too, best Killers song ever. Heartwrenching and beautiful

One of the best live voices I've heard.

The lower the voice, the more heartbreaking the song is.
I could watch Ronnie drum all day every day.....
Love
Favorite band & favorite song!
Brandon's vocal talent Is amazing ❤️
I really do like this song a lot, and this performance is AMAZING. Love the harmonies at the end. Bravissimo!
I agree, it was great. To me, they should have given more importance to the harmonies in the album version.
omg what a performance , he sounds exactly like the same
Magnífica presentación
Esta canción me trae tantos recuerdos
Powerful! I liked it so much that I'm watching it again....
Minha música favorita do mundo!! Te amo Brandon!

Absolutely fantastic performance. Rivals the record version in my opinion.
So in love with this group,.. and Brendon Flowers
The best song that they have written! absolutely love it
Goosebumbs!!
bRAndON IS SO CUUUTEJEJDJDJKDKD
He's always been an amazing performer
This one is in my top 5 killers songs
"sometimes the dreams that impact us are still here!", i love it when he hits his stomach with his hand.
Great song!!! Brandon!!!!!
I believe the point he was trying to make is that it is Brandons job to be doing what he does, despite the enthusiasm of the crowd
What a great band 👍
Still an incredible song!
They are absolutely amazing live!
Maravilhoooso!! Canta demais!
A truly masterpiece.
goosebumbs
I had a miss atomic bomb and if I had the talent this is the song I would have wanted to write. It's perfect
who cares about the way he's dancing when his singing is so damn good? jesus!
💜💜💜💜💜🥰

de lo mejor
I get a springsteen vibe from them in some songs
Swoon 😅❤
