0:36 I felt that "And it's all in my head. God, she's touching his chest now." Funny how the simple change from the word "but" to "God" had such a strong impact. Fast forward like 15 years and watch their Glastonbury 2019 performance and the difference is staggering. His antics, his delivery, everything is so much brighter. He's in a better place. Indeed became Mr. "Brightside"

[@Jacobyjasta]

This is my story: You can interpret the song in different ways but for me personally it remembers me of the hardest time of my life. I have the Asperger syndrome (a kind of autism) which makes me have obsessions. My main obsession is music. Once in my life I fell in love with the no. 1 perfect girl I could imagine. Beautiful, smart, attentive, sense of humor... We talked / chatted every day (whether on Facebook or in real life) and became best / good friends. I thought about her every minute. She made me smile and laugh every time. She always read and listened to all the shit I had to say and always reacted so helpful. One day tragedy happened... She became together with a good friend of me and I felt so angry and sad. Me and her were still good friends, although he didn't really like that haha, I felt too scared to tell her my intense, passionate, insanely, deep love for her. One day they broke up for a while and decided to tell her my true feelings. That was the end of our friendship. Since that day, we never spoke anymore with each other. The guy was even totally pissed at me because I didn't tell him first before saying it to her, while I was thinking like: What's your problem compared with what I go / went through... Through that time, this song made me cry for over a hundred times and I smashed my fist many times on the wall 'til it was bleeding. Once when this song came on in my playlist on shuffle, I even fainted. This is the only well-known and good song I know that I can relate to with my experience / story. After our friendship broke, I decided for myself to oblige myself to never fall in love again, because it might kill me. I don't need compassion or anything, I just wanted to share this with random strangers. Maybe some people can relate to it and went through the same like me, although I hope you all didn't. Btw, I even didn't tell any of my friends that this is my favorite and most emotional song. ;) In March I will see The Killers and when this tune starts, I'm already sure I'm gonna cry like a total baby, haha. If I would be in the mood to rage, then I still got the fences, right? ;D Sincerely, Mr. Brightside

[@phildecker6639]

Hi, I'm Philipp from Germany. It might be destiny, that I have just seen your Comment. I have also some strength connection to this Song. I met a Girl 7 Years ago now and fell totally in Love with her. We met a lot, but there was never more than being friends. Through the Years, i saw her dating many Guys and everytime it was such a pain. But around the time we met, I first listened to Mr. Brightside. And everytime I was in Pain and missed her, this Song helped me to stay cool. Now we are in two different happy relationships and there is no more need to look back and cry or something. But it still chills me to hear this Song. It reminds me of what never had been, of this beautiful girl and many worthful memories.

[@ludrixte1938]

Jacoby Jasta You already made this exact comment on the Royal Albert Hall 2009 performance of this song >:(

[@acaciaj5378]

I know this is 6 months late, but I just saw this. As someone who both loves this song to death and also has Asperger's, I get it. Trust me, you will find someone. And they won't make you feel like this, but you'll still love this song.
