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

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

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

​@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

[@joedunning6973]

We trained in school to sing together, i believe this to be the reason that british crowds are the loudest

[@JamieAubrey]

Glasgow - Mr Brightside ft The Killers This makes me proud to be Glaswegian, we don't do anything by half, we go all out

[@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

[@JaymzShikari]

​@@saintdon4461Scotland, specifically Glasgow, is on another level though. I followed a few bands on UK tours in my youth and was always blown away by how different it is. Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow has never failed to leave me utterly stunned

[@danhawman7413]

@@saintdon4461 No, Scotland is different. Ask any musician.

[@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 😹

[@LiamBugden96]

last year? the euros were a few months ago 😂

[@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.

[@christaylor4441]

Absolutely EPIC. As an English man i do envy you Jocks when it comes to crowds. Even though we aint to far behind yous!

[@GazGaryGazza]

The song has always been very anthemic in the UK and guaranteed to get any party going

[@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!

[@ScottStephenson-u2h]

This is like when it plays in the pubs and clubs over here in England me and my mates often request it and end up singing and dancing over it

[@garymcatear822]

Brandon Flowers has said many times that Scotland is his favourite place to perform because of the audience.

[@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.

[@vkdeen7570]

just drive through any town playing it and a crowd will form 😂

[@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

[@neillasto7424]

Common People by Pulp at Glastonbury 1995. By far the best crowd reaction to a song I've ever been involved in. 150,000 people simply united in joy 🙌 All this on my 21st Birthday as well (100% True. 24th June 1995). Experiencing and seeing this live in person was a truly beautiful experience.

[@SteveG-k8q]

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

[@scotthendry6298]

Worst song ever sang by a complete 🔔 end

[@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.

[@garymcatear822]

It was a British label that signed them too.

[@samwilliams0901]

Brits have a unrivalled knack for giving a platform to real talent when the US rejects it. Hendrix being the best example.

[@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.

[@weescottishguy8950]

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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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

[@TheWebcrafter]

6:41 - THOUSANDS OF GLASWEGIANS - All singing with an English accent. Amazing!

[@niknax25]

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

[@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.

[@paulseton3460]

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

[@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, .

[@cathyfieldhouse6709]

We've taken the Killers to our hearts, and we LOVE a proper anthem...see Bohemian Rhapsody🥰

[@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’?

[@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.

[@scottcrosby-art5490]

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

[@julieinhester7099]

Brandon Flowers ❤❤❤❤❤ Fantastic song ❤️❤️❤️❤️and a gold suit 😅

[@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 :)

[@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 ❤

[@franfi1754]

Sometimes I forget the lyrics to the national anthem, but NEVER to this song. Also, you should react to Little Talks by Of Monsters and Men at Lollapalooza Chile 2016; the crowd was CRAZY!

[@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.

[@davidburton5335]

I am from the UK, not sure I could tell you any of the lyrics.

[@antonettekilpatrick7850]

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.

[@sndrka12]

Brilliant! People make Glasgow, and we are the people! You may also enjoy Gerry Cinnamon at Trnsmt, a Glasgow artist being celebrated by his own, pure magic.

[@MarkDuffy-n7n]

Thank you never seen this before. I am a Glaswegian but blowing my own trumpet I did go to the original live aid concert.

[@davidstewart9463]

I think you can see how blown away the band are about the crowd

[@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

[@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

Jess the magpie 😂 attracted to shiny stuff 😂 xxx

[@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.

[@debbiewillets2006]

seen the Killers live in Manchester had our son with us to his first stadium gig and the whole place was bouncing and singing to this he loved every min of it don't know a brit that does not know the words to this song....

[@leo1314ok]

Glasgow audiences the best in the world!

[@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..

[@AG-gr4yx]

I just checked and it's currently at 77 in the charts.

[@quiddity1977]

I know missus this feeling! I go to hear the killers at my first Glastonbury. I say here because they were the secret set in the John peel tent & we had to stand outside. Never had such a joyous, bouncing & unified experience than EVERYONE singing this word for word! Well..... Maybe a bit more bouncy in wellies watching fatboy slim play eat, sleep, rave, repeat 😍

[@eddiec1961]

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

[@aleksandargeorgievski3407]

just as it has to be... brilliant

[@Malcolm-c7x]

The killers are very popular in the UK. And always give a good performance saw them at Glastonbury

[@jameswormington9978]

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

[@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 !!

[@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

[@jamessteel2751]

Love it when the crowd goes rogue. Check out the crowd singing snow patrol Run and the crowd singing Bohemian rhapsody at t a Green Day gig. GD where not even on the stage!

[@dougiebates9993]

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

[@colettefitzpatrick9412]

I think it’s more than likely that Brandon Flowers had this suit custom made for him , though a good dress maker would be able to make a replica for you .I love his fashion sense , he always looks amazing !

[@neiluk78]

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

very cool gold outfit but we should send jess a bib

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

[@HitchUpAndTow]

We do like a good sing along

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

[@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.

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

[@hazy5340]

Another great reaction, just got my head round where I know Jess from - Chicago PD Kim Burgess👌 I was at this concert, if you can watch "The Whole of the Moon" at the same show - you will defo want to move here - Stay Safe....................

[@MPK-tf1vq]

The killers are actually an American band that made it big in Britain before they did in the US. They are the best none British band I've ever seen live. I can confirm they know how to throw a gig! My favourite none British band of all time.

[@paulreilly6797]

In the United Kingdom, it is the 3rd biggest selling/streaming song of all time and is the longest-charting single on the UK Official Singles Chart Top 100, having spent over 408 weeks and is the most successful single to never top the British charts

[@robertutting5580]

Most of the kids singing along were not born or were babies when this song was released - this song MADE the Killers and it happened in the UK - only salty people hate it

[@Highervibesofficial]

fun fact for you all the killers have said they would prefer to do shows in the uk and Europe than the usa because our festivals and crowds are there for the music and not for clout like coachella ect but great reaction guys !

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

[@donnagrainger6474]

Can we just give credit to the drummer ❤

[@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 😂

You cant barely go to any weddings in England and this isn’t on…no joke when I see not many people up on dance floor at wedding I request this song and everyone gets up…I mean there are others I request as well (trust me my wedding list was full of it!) but you have to play them
