I have just figured out why I love this guy so much - I can hear every word he sings. He has clarity. Few singers can do it. Most singers mumble and slur. Not this man. He is at the top.
Interesting cuz to my ears it sounds over enunciated. I like the stylistic way vocalists can sing a line that can sound like more than one phrase. Kinda otherworldly.
You need the vocals to sit in front of the mix, they generally should take centre stage. Particularly if you're adding sfx such as reverb and distortion.
It's not just the voice, he's singing an old rock song and keeping somewhat true to the original. It isn't just that people don't sing clear, but noticed a lot of songs these days have far to much base to them that drown out the vocals. If you listen to 90s-80s and before in Rock, you'll notice the lyrics are very clear... The singers don't need base and other instrumental to drown out either bad or lazy singing, the instrumental compliments the vocals, lol. This guy has a good voice, so was a bit surprised hearing a more modern band do this song some justice, so many remakes of songs these days are just meh....
This guy - Brandon Flowers, Iva Davies who wrote this, Winehouse, Lennox, Fitzgerald, they enunciate vocals clearly. I love slide guitar replacing saxophone here. And Brandon, it's vision OF you.
Icehouse was a band that should have been a worldwide huge deal. Iva Davies is an excellent song writer and multi-instrumentalist, I met him a couple of times and such a nice bloke. This is great cover. I'm sure Brandon knows Icehouse were originally called 'Flowers'.
@@MaleOrderBride Australian bands struggle when it comes to international touring. It‘s getting much better, but in the 1980s, overseas touring for a band was very expensive and time consuming.
@@VoidManufacturing No 1 in Australia, but number 7 in the US and number 53 in the UK. That means it 'was as big of a hit as it could have been' in Australia only. Which was my original point. Now hurry up and call me an asshat.
Brandon Flowers reckoned The Vines opened up the industry to a lot of indie bands including The Killers. take his words for what they are but I had no idea they were that influential outside of Aus at the time.
No one ever did a good cover of this song. So, here comes Brandon with his magnificent voice and did it FLAWLESSLY. I'm in love with this cover as much I'm love with the original one.
From one GenX to another, I agree. Brandon Flowers is an older millennial raised with GenX roots. Have you heard their cover of Joy Division’s Shadowplay?
@@bluenight2611 I have fond memories as a teenager playing Pacman at the local F&C/Burger shop while the Juke Box was playing Walls on repeat. Everyone loved that killer song. But Icehouse don't seem to play it at live performances for some reason. What a great debut album.
One of the prettiest songs ever written. The original song was performed in such a distinctive style, including the incredible voice of the original singer, that I never would have thought anyone could have come close to the Icehouse performance. This singer knocked the cover off. Terrific job gang.
I saw Icehouse live in 1987 or 1988. It was my first concert! Thank you Dad for dropping me off and picking me up. Dad was a Johnny Cash guy but he knew I liked this band.
I just died. I adored this song when it came out (and the B side is awesome also). Somebody pick me up the floor and fix my jaw. This is pure gold, the way he enunciates, the way he says "I just freeze!", gives me the chills, I literally just freeze lol, this is so so good. Brandon, dude, a cover album please!
I can’t tell you how happy this makes me. I was 6 when the original came out and adored it, and still love Icehouse to this day. They are one of the most underrated Australian bands. Your cover is perfect and I hope it will introduce Icehouse to many people who wouldn’t otherwise have found them. Thank you ♥️
I am.a Chilean fan of The killers...and this is a great cover ...Icehouse...one of my favourite bands ...Since I heard Crazy on the radio a sumar day on January 1988...Thanks The Killers for this great song....I love both bands! Greetings from Antofagasta..Chile!
Brandon has a huge voice which doesn’t always strike you on first listen as his delivery is not over the top but try to sing any of his songs and you quickly realize there’s a certain depth and resonance, like a kind of natural reverb. Brilliant band, brilliant cover of a stone cold classic song!
I'd be honored if some fans of acoustic 80s covers would take a listen to my piano & vocal interpretations of EYE OF THE TIGER by Survivor, IS THIS LOVE by Whitesnake, and PURPLE RAIN by Prince on my YT channel. Live acoustic with no autotune. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
Man, I used to be in a band at school and we used to do this one and 'Crazy' which is another great song by #Icehouse. I really appreciate this cover. It's nice to hear such a great band covering this tune.
I respect the killers but was never big into them but DAMN they aced this cover, did not expect anyone to be as good as icehouse at this song but the killers can sit alongside icehouse on this one. Needs to be released as a single for sure.
Not taking anything away from The Killers, but I thought the same when it came to Weezer covering a-ha's Take On Me. I'd love to see both bands just do an album of nothing but 80s covers and see how they go.
It's 11/10 for me. I commend them for keeping it as it was, not overdoing it and trying to palm it off as their own. The audio techs nailed the mix on it too. Kudos to them I say, for covering an iconic Australian song, and doing it justice while bringing it to a new generation who are, by and large, devoid of actual music talent in this day and age.
Outside of it being an outstanding version, the lighting, subdued background vocals and melancholy feel really captured the mood of much of the world at that time. Fantastic version 💪🔥💪
I keep listening to this. Brandon's vocals are beyond amazing. I think this is the best cover I've ever heard in my life. A whole album of this should be made, for the good of mankind.
Recently announced that Ice House & The Killers will be performing at the Adelaide 500 Supercars race this December. It will be interesting if the bands co-join for this song.
dougbj40 I was a 12 year old English kid in school in Sydney in 1987 and this song takes me right back there . Icehouse where a great band , cracking cover this though .
Best act to play at the AFL Grand Final. Covered Midnight Oil's 'Forgotten Years" which went down great. Ended with Richmond's fullforward on stage. Love this band
Oil's "Forgotten Years" is a Classic .... Brandon took a few verses to get into the vibe but when he did.... Boy.... did he nail it!!! Total respect to cover an Aussie anthem in front of 100k...
His voice has just gotten better and better. He’s really grown into it. He’s not forcing anything anymore (some of Battle Born’s more “epic” vocalizations come to mind). It’s effortless, silky smooth, and beautiful. It’s hard to imagine this is the same guy who sang Mr. Brightside (not that it was bad, just so vastly different). This is an incredible cover.
Damn good cover! Though I have to admit I missed the saxophone; I'm a sucker for a saxophone! Electric Blue is my all time favorite 80's jam. Nice! 🎶🎷♥🎸🎶 #TakeMeBackToThe80s
You see that little smile at the end? That’s exactly what I do when the original comes on the radio, there’s only a handful of songs that instantly make me smile
Oh man, what a cover. I saw them do a version of this year in Australia 2 years ago and was at their Sydney show this week. Such an incredible band, plus the Icehouse album this was off was the first album I ever bought in 1988.
I was apprehensive, and his voice is the wrong register for my memory, but I have to give it to them, they did it as faithfully as they could, and damn they did good. Minus Ira Davies voice, it still came across damn good. A+
The singer really captured the sentiment (of that yearning we all feel when falling in love and seeing that someone and are breath just stops)in the original recording. I do miss the saxophone solo though. Love the background vocals on this cover too. A lot of people dont know this but on the original John Oates(of course from the legendary Hall & Oates) did the background vocals .
I like Icehouse and find this cover bizarre. Not the performance but...why cover Icehouse? Not the most popular band in the world. It seems like a random choice.
About 8-10 yrs ago the killers had no idea how there album should look like. There record company gave them a few samples of other recording artist, icehouse was one.
I wanted to hear this song but didn't want to feel old, and then I found this! Wow I can't stop listening to this! This version is actually better, the lead singers voice is so clear
OMG!! I'm an Aussie and this song is still iconic to us. And once again the boys just churn out pure stardust! Just brilliant. I'm sure Iva Davies is so happy with thi!! 🇦🇺❤️
The Killers should do an entire album of covers, and call it Killer Covers
This!
Or: Cover Killers
A very very good suggestion sir..
Am I missing something? Is this the Killers under a different name?
@@vanessahenry7238 you clearly are... under what different name?
I want an entire album of The Killers covering 80s tracks.
Steffen Dass yes, yes, yes
I so agree - this is brilliant!!
Yes, same here. That will be Awesome.
Spotify, do you hear us??
I would absolutely buy.
Oh man! We need a album call Killer Covers... I am sure no one would complain...
I applaud this idea

Of course! Icehouse we’re originally called Flowers! I have their first album called “Icehouse” - so appropriate that Brandon is singing this! 🌸
Why didn't Icehouse achieve international success??
@@MaleOrderBride Australian bands struggle when it comes to international touring. It‘s getting much better, but in the 1980s, overseas touring for a band was very expensive and time consuming.

Glad they've actually heard of Icehouse , even better they didn't mess with this Aussie classic , vocals were bang on , top job boys .
Maybe because Icehouse were originally called Flowers

He makes it look so effortless. His voice seems perfect for this song.
He’s special. That’s for sure.
That was my first thought...just so easy.
I didn't think I could love this song anymore than I already did. This is how you cover a song. And my goodness Brandon's smile at the end.
As a killers, icehouse and John Oates fan, I feel hugely satisfied hearing this.
TIL John co-wrote this.

100%
It’s been said that when covering a song, selection is key.. I’m not sure anyone could’ve nailed this tune better. This guys voice is on the money
Nailed it. I wore out this album on cassette several times.
This is my favorite thing in the entire world right now.
Couldn't agree more 😌
It's magical.
Ok, not just me, I've heard it about 20 times already.
When your favourite band covers one of your all time favourite 80s bops... 🤯👏👏👏
Fuck'n Awsome!!!
They played this at Hope Estate on Saturday - EPIC!
Brandon Flowers could sing shampoo ingredients and it would still sound amazing!
The Icehouse guy could combine those ingredients into shampoo and use them and it would be amazing.
Exactly! This man is pure gold, omg
I love it!!!! 😊
I agree but i hope thats not a sledge against Icehouse's lyrics 😁
Just a fantastic voice.
This is the only band I could justify paying INSANE concert tickets prices for.😎🔥
As someone who grew up in 80’s, I approve.
No flipping way!! My favorite 80’s song being performed by my favorite 2000’s band. Awesome!

He did a brilliant job with this cover and I'm SO glad he didn't change the melody! Perfect!
Best act to play at the AFL Grand Final. Covered Midnight Oil's 'Forgotten Years" which went down great. Ended with Richmond's fullforward on stage. Love this band

I can SO hear The Killer's doing Icehouse's other American hit, 'Crazy'!
Or other songs called Crazy. Let Loose, Seal, Aerosmith, etc
First thing I thought of. Crazy is a superb track, and they would have nailed it like this one
Icehouse had many hits in Australia it could be any of their songs
