tashadaphne Posted November 14, 2004 Report Share Posted November 14, 2004 The Killers have a great sound, kind of electric with echoes and stuff. "somebody Told Me" is an awesome song, and I'm surprised that they aren't on this fabulous site. :)Does anyone know anything else interesting about them?

Earth-Angel Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 The Killers, The White Stripes and The Manic Street Preachers are the best new bands ever. Hmmm....the Manics have been around for quite a while. But they still rock! tashadaphne, here's a link to their official site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulGirl Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 agreed angel, it's been a good twelve years since their debut album was released and they were together for quite a while before that! sure they're new in relation to bands like floyd or zeppelin but i wouldn't call them new per se!

SoulGirl Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 well i guess to fans of mozart, shostakovich is new. still in relation to the killers and the white stripes, the manics are positively geriatric! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxy Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 The Killers - "Somebody Told Me" - such a great song, anyone else like it? I haven't heard any of their other stuff. Anyone know where they're from? Breaking my back just to know your name Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game I'm breaking my back just to know your name But heaven ain't close in a place like this Anything goes but don't blink you might miss Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this I said heaven ain't close in a place like this Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight Well somebody told me You had a boyfriend Who looks like a girlfriend That I had in February of last year It's not confidential I've got potential Ready? Let's roll onto something new Taking its toll and I'm leaving without you Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this I said heaven ain't close in a place like this Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight Well somebody told me You had a boyfriend Who looks like a girlfriend That I had in February of last year It's not confidential I've got potential A rushin', a rushin' around Pace yourself from me I said maybe baby please But I just don't know now When all I wanna do is try [x3] Somebody told me You had a boyfriend Who looks like a girlfriend That I had in February of last year It's not confidential I've got potential A rushin', a rushin' around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXX Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Did you get the album? They have at least 3 other good songs in there. "Change Your Mind" would've been my anthem when I was younger "Mr. Brightside" and "Smile Like You Mean It" are also good trax :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillianne Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Meh, When I get the money I"m owed by my studio, I shall put it on my list, I'm sick of bands with 'The' infront of their name, yes, just thought I'd say that.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
