I’d love to see you react to The Darkness I believe in a thing called love. 👌🏻 they are so unique yet have a sound that reminds us of a time not long ago. And best of all “more British music 😀👍🏻🇬🇧”

[@BrianMac2601]

Have you seen Alex at Glastonbury, talk about crowd participation lol. This kid blew everyone away, instant legend and trust me you'll both love it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2LZnX-AeNdsgtEsi=oyKaQkOzgxPVC73G

[@jongarratt5383]

Killers.... "When You Were Young" (Royal Albert Hall)..... Epic.

[@stevenmeek9]

Love you guys. Please can you check out Gerry Cinammon.

[@karlmaddin6554]

This is the most British song that isn’t British.

[@jamiemacdonald6899]

I don't know go to any big stadium boxing bout or sporting event and see how Sweet Caroline goes over.

[@glastonbury4304]

​@jamiemacdonald6899 definitely when England win...lol

[@gabrielplattes6253]

& an Aussie anthem that isn't Aussie. 😄

[@michaelthornhill9073]

I sang this at a karaoke bar in Bali everyone knew I was British

[@neillasto7424]

Common People by Pulp at Glastonbury 1995. By far the best crowd reaction to a song ever. 150,000 people simply united in joy 🙌 My 21st Birthday watching this live as well.

[@SteveG-k8q]

Thanks for reminding me, I'm going back after this lol

[@scotthendry6298]

Worst song ever sang by a complete 🔔 end

[@4390hoover]

The look on his face when the crowd took over was priceless ,btw I live in Scotland we are the best party people in the world this is just a typical night out in Glasgow

[@msboomerizzle303]

Any gig in Scotland is like this to be honest. We like to sing along...loudly!! 😂😂❤

[@saintdon4461]

anywhere in the uk for that matter

[@MUTTSANBGS]

I saw the Killers last year in the O2 arena; it was during the Euros and England had got through to the semi finals. The band stopped the show so that we could watch the winning goal and then we sang "Mr Brightside" It was an amazing and magical moment ❤ The killers are honorary Brits and "Mr Brightside" is an unofficial national anthem 😹

[@danielroche114]

Gerry cinnamon canter live in Glasgow is insane just 1 guy on stage and the crowd is mind-blowing please let that be next great vid as always love you guys

[@missyyoutube7145]

Yes, 2019 gig

[@paulbrooks1978]

Belter. That's a great one to watch by Gerry Cinnamon.

[@WhiskyRose873]

You need to know, Mr Brightside is the unofficial National Anthem of the UK - you want the crowd jumping, you put on this song! I believe the entire country knows it word for word.

[@wyterabitt2149]

The Killers were heavily inspired by British music, and they were not embraced in the US and looking like they were not going to get a big break. Their break came in the UK, where the song became huge and they came over and stayed for a while. Then the US took notice. They even often sing with a slight British sound, and with the British influence as well nobody noticed they werent for a while.

[@shaunorsler9851]

There's a great killers live clip where they stopped the concert to show the end of a football (soccer) game and when the final whistle blew and England had won they started mr Brightside.

[@missyyoutube7145]

This whole set was amazing. They got a guy from the crowd up on stage to play the drums and it is def worth a reaction. He had full crowd support and was jaw dropping.

[@zo7034]

Its pronounced Transmit. Also this is THE song for the UK, i don't know anyone who doesn't know it word for word.

[@markdavis5644]

You have to react to the Irish pub where they all sing this as a tribute to their friend who died. It's mental.

[@weescottishguy8950]

Seen them twice at the old T in the Park festival we had. Absolutely epic!!!

[@neiluk78]

Us British crowds know how to enjoy ourselves, it doesn`t matter if its boxing, football, festivals, gigs ect. We love it.

[@ryanterry6547]

The killers love the British fans they dedicate they’re prominence to them, this song is a staple and anthem to the British people!

[@ianoo23]

When this song comes on whether at home, in the car or in a bar; people sing or shout along to it! Huge song in the UK! Plus the killers are massive in the UK and played loads of festivals and toured here continuously ❤

[@andrewmay1299]

What do you mean by ‘continuously’?

[@paulseton3460]

you two are great to watch. especially when your laughing at stuff I like

[@arip9188]

There's no folks in the world who can sing as loud and enthusiastic in a crowd as the Scots and the Irish 😍

[@Tommy-he7dx]

I hear the Boyo's in the Valleys holding each others beer

[@AndyyyUre]

Then you have to check out Noel Gallagher singing ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’ at the River Plate Stadium in Argentina. Truly one of the best crowd performances ever. Even made Noel cry

[@mickt3390]

Agreed

[@niknax25]

LOVE The Killers. Always try see them when they come to Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@rossshepherd9836]

Aye, Scotland crowds are the best.

The suit was made for him by Manuel Couture. Manuel made one for Elivis in 1957 when he designed for Nudie’s Rodeo Tailors. He's out of Tennessee.

[@jerilynbowler6321]

I have been lucky enough to see The Killers three times! They always deliver an amazing show and Mr. Brightside is always a huge hit. A fond fond fond memory for me is when I played this song in my car as I was driving my 93 year-old mother to lunch. A little backstory, my mom always took interest in what my siblings and I were listening to. She loved the Beatles, ELO, Bruce, and many more of whom we played for her. My own children have continued this family tradition, keeping my husband and I current with many bands and genres. We introduced our music to them and they have kept us current. So, fast forward to a June day in 2016. I was taking mom to Panera for lunch when Mr. Brightside came on the sound system. I told her it was a band we saw with our children and we jumped up and down like idiots. It was so cool to see thousands of people jumping right along with us. She told me “crank it up, I want to hear what all the fuss is about!” In true mom fashion, she bobbed her head up and down and gave it her fun song approval! That was the last lunch I shared with my mom as she passed away a week later. What an incredible memory and I’m so glad it was such a fun song. The Killers and Mr. Brightside will always be special to me! ❤️

[@petenash453]

Cool mum with a great taste in music and a great memory for you, bless her….❤from London

[@paulbaddiley7326]

Any live show in scotland just hits different! The Scottish people just know how to party and the atmosphere is always amazing!😊

[@scottcrosby-art5490]

Saw these guys at one of my local stadiums a couple of years ago, put on a great show

[@smcin13]

Seen them in Falkirk and they were great. Brought a fan out of the cloud to play drums on reasons unknown. Superb concert and great venue, .

[@jakealdridge1257]

Another great video, but the outstanding part for me, and I nearly PISSED MYSELF, was Jess's reaction to his shoes, DAMN girl they are only shoes LOL xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[@NataliePine]

Good shoes are NOT just shoes!

[@jakealdridge1257]

@@NataliePine ❤

[@patricknicholls2395]

Brandon Flowers has talked alot how the UK pretty much broke this song into anthemic status and every of a certain age here knows every word and sings it insanely loudly, it's a beautiful thing. In terms of it being a sad song, I genuinely think there's something we love here as well about the melancholy behind it and it's like a weird unifying thing that we've all been through so everyone sings it til our voices go

[@smahier]

You´ve already reacted (twice, I think) to Kevin Bridges playing his home town of Glasgow. This crowd is the same people!

[@leo1314ok]

Glasgow audiences the best in the world!

[@dougiebates9993]

If you liked that crowd then check out Gerry Cinnamon playing “Discoland” at TRNSMT. Same crowd but twice as mental

[@jameswormington9978]

If you watch closely, you can see the kid on the shoulders, mouth the words " I want a suit like that for Christmas ! ".

[@shyman2012]

Been in the UK charts for over 400 weeks I think? So like 8 years! And when it drops out it doesn't stay out for long, yeah....us brits come out the womb singing this song..

[@NataliePine]

Honestly in the UK people are basically born knowing this song. I don't think I've ever been to a wedding where this wasn't played at some point in the night - and it's *compulsory* for everyone to belt out every single line.

[@JohnEdmunds-m7i]

Hi you two absolutely love your reactions especially jess when she laughs if you're down she picks you up, please could you react to paulo nutini, iron sky Abbey road sessions your love it, it's awesome, many thanks John from the UK xx

[@CheekyReviews]

Hi guys, this is an absolutely iconic banger over here in the UK, The Killers are one of, if not, THE biggest festival band and have been for years now. Great reaction, loads of my old friends were at this and many other festivals where it was the same.Your reactions really do bring me joy every day :)

[@seanrowley9703]

This is the unofficial national anthem of the UK.

You should react to Faithless - Insomnia live at T in the Park if you wanna see an even better Glasgow crowd

[@Jinty92]

I'm Scottish from Glasgow and we all know this song. It just hits different. You were right, the TRNSMT Festival is pronounced Transmit.

[@paulmcewan2958]

You should listen to anything Gerry Cinnamon at the dame festival (TRNSMIT)......A Scottish artist that is not signed by label, but by word of mouth....he is huge in Scotland and beyond.

[@LisaEvans-g3l]

We do like a good sing along

Also check out Gerry Cinnamon

[@Finchie_97]

27 years olds and only now realising this is an American band. This song is a contender for Britain's unofficial national anthem.

Glasgow pronounced correctly! " Honorary British Citizenship" on its way now. But the real test will be for 'Mosco(w), Moss-cow.

Common People by Pulp at Glastonbury 1995 pretty pls

[@dwick4947]

Killers performed at the O2 this year on 4th July. Brandon reference Independence Day and the crowd started booing. He said “what, too soon?!” Not gonna lie, I bored myself even typing that. But at the time it was funny

[@ajorngjdonaydbr]

In May 2024, some 20 years after Mr Brightside made its first UK chart appearance, Official Charts announced The Killers' Mr Brightside had overtaken Oasis's classic Wonderful to become officially the UK's biggest song of all time yet to reach Number 1, and the third biggest song of all time

[@eddiec1961]

WoW epic crowd performance and Jess only cares about the suit and shoes, such fun to wach lol take care.

[@llebnevets21]

It's great to see its not lightning in a bottle scottish people being like this. Look at us at the recent euros. We were rubbish, but the world loved us for our party and welcoming fun having :) i remeber seeing korn in glasgow, and when the lead came out with the bagpipes, the crowd went insane.

[@generaladvance5812]

I was rooting for you from England. Great party spirit!

[@tommym5023]

Oh if you want classic British festival sing alongs, Glastonbury,Pulp, Common People,Artic Monkeys,I Bet That You Look Good on the Dance Floor🎸🎸🥁

[@longshanks90]

I dont know how successful this song was in America but this was like an anthem here and I guarantee everyone in the comments has sang it word for word watching it with you 😂

[@scousenotenglish2819]

Brits have 2 songs in their DNA, this and Bohemian Rhapsody.

[@yourpreciousprints2586]

Love you guys and your reactions...would love you to react to Gerry Cinnamon 'Discoland at theTRNSMT Festival 2018 - 01/07/2018... - Glasgow Green...the guy is brilliant and entertaining and the crowd are wild. Or Gerry Cinnamon - Canter (Live at Hampden Park) please have a look guys...he will blow you away !!

[@AD270479]

As someone from Glasgow, can I just give Jess a wee pat on the back for pronouncing Glasgow properly. Very very few people from across the pond get it correct.

[@Motor7Mike]

"Couse i am Mr. Brightside"🎶

[@StevenDavisonYT]

I’m pretty sure this song hasn’t actually left the UK charts since it came out. Others have said it but this is the unofficial national anthem of the UK.

[@andrewmay1299]

Bit of an exaggeration, but you’re on the right lines.

[@jayduffy10]

wooooo

[@chriscjad]

You gotta check Oasis - Don’t Look Back in Anger live in Argentina

[@BadgerUKvideo]

This is a British anthem. The Killers are now officially British. We claimed them in the name of the empire.

great reaction, you should check out the live performance of Inxs 'New sensation' from Wembley in the UK ( 1991 ), massive crowd and a great performance, think you guys would dig it 🙂

[@Tass...]

It's fun and all that but an audio engineer would say the sound technician didn't do his job very well that day. The mix is terrible but I guess it's a happy mistake. Crowds sing anthemic songs at concerts all the time you just aren't supposed to hear them so strongly when it's being recorded.

[@stevenp2956]

Please please please react to Defqon 1 end shows. Music , lights and Fireworks. I promise you won't be disappointed

[@Orion3T]

If I'm honest I think part of the reason you can't hear Brandon is he just doesn't have a strong voice, at least not any more. I watched some of their live Reading performance a few weeks back and was shocked how weak his vocals were. He used to be a lot better. Still great crowd participation, he's an entertainer and I do like this song.
