Funny thing she once called me while i was spending the weekend with some girl i dated, she asked "are you with someone, i hear her laughing?" and i replied "yes I am, i'm trying to forget and its hard, I wish things were diffrent" she replied "me too..." a awkward silence between us followed that words, then we wished he best for each other and that was the last time i spoke to her... I imagined the night we broke up in so many diffrent ways i lost count, so many diffrent things I wish i had done, maybe we could still be togheter, idk... Anyway, i wish you find hapiness bro, with someone who makes you complete.

[@randomuploadsism]

A dark and poignant song about growing up. Growing up is one of the hardest things; when we are children life seems to straightforward, we are surrounded by people who love us and want to see us thrive. The world seems full and we are excited by the propest of adulthood. Then adulthood arrives and we lose our innocence, life seems complicated, we struggle, childhood friends move away, there is no longer the routine of school, parents - who once seemed so capable and in charge, age and become weak. We become filled with regrets for dreams that went unfulfilled..... It's tough when you are a young adult. "Oh no no no no no" is one the most powerful lines in this song for me.

[@johnflavin1602]

First heard this song when I was 9 hot fuss was the first album I ever listened to , before I even knew what albums were , I’m 17 now and at 3 am it hit me . Like a truck

[@bobbyrayofthefamilysmith24]

I'm 32 not sure if I'm still a "young adult" probably not but I certainly don't feel old and experienced enough to navigate life successfully. I just split with the girl I thought I would marry one day. I'm moving to back to where I used to live before we met where I'd had some of the best times, I'm moving and starting again. I have a longing to go back but I can't tell if I'm longing to be back on familiar turf or just longing for the past.

“And someone will drive her around, down the same streets that I did”. That one shook me to my core. I had a high school sweetheart that I started dating senior year. We dated all through college and everything was perfect, she was an amazing person. But for some reason the love just went dry, we stopped doing things we used to do like fun dates and adventures. It was taking a toll on both of us and we mutually decided to break up. It was hard for us both, leaving someone who was always there for you for the past five years, your first everything. We hugged, our shirt collars were drenched in tears and she quietly walked away. I never saw her again, but part of my mourns as if I still love her. Maybe I do. The lines of life that are meant to connect always will. All I can do now is try to move on from her and hope that everything works out in her life. Love u gz

I can’t believe people find this depressing or dark, I find it really uplifting and life affirming! Although yes I think it’s fair to say it’s “bittersweet.” But honestly, it’s made me feel a lot better about things and more grateful to be alive/motivated

[@nyetnyetcykablyat9483]

I think it's the vibe of the song. It does have a slightly dark or haunting feel to it especially with the keyboards

[@anthonygaiton8164]

Kinda dark until that last chorus after the break. Feels like a weight is lifted ❤ after on the same streets that I did!

[@WinnySarmiento]

When I was an adolescent this song made me feel sad, now nostalgic, the way the home stays alone at the end

[@andreschun2308]

I knew this song and this band in that episode of The O.C. Oh boy, since then...

[@JB_07203]

As much as what other comments have been saying, I've only stumbled upon this song now. Still being fairly young myself, what I personally get from this song is to be genuine in life. You have to smile like you mean it, because we don't know if we get a second chance at this. Everyone has regrets, but it's your choice to focus or to not focus on them, we all make mistakes, and that's more than ok, that's a part of what makes us who we are. Mistakes are a learning experience, so don't be regret or spiteful just because you missed an opportunity, our circumstances make who we end up being. As we get older, it becomes harder and harder to change your habits, so just try to change them while you're young. And the thing is, let's say that we really only do get one chance at this, wouldn't you want to live life as you like? To be genuine about it? That being said, we still have to be smart about decisions and how we go about things. Life is about balance, to be genuine about it, care about it. Also weigh things when you can, if you can. Because people care so much less than you think, since they're busy worrying about themselves. So it's not worth it to do something just for other people to envy you, or to be "better" than them. Smile like you mean it, be genuine about life, and live how you like, just be responsible, just be sensible, just as long as you know we all make mistakes, and that's not necessarily a bad thing, because they help so much with who we become, as long as we can learn from our mistakes and understand our flaws to better ourselves. And as much as we will get hurt, it's very much worth noting to not become spiteful or bitter, as easy as it is. It's easy in a similar way that it's easy to reminisce on the past. However the past is in the past, we need to accept that, and learning about today might help that, amongst losing ourselves in jobs, or hobbies. We're all going to get hurt, but that's inevitable as we are now, and so why not try? Why not try to make the most of what we can of life?

i know that im late on this one, but what an awsome track. I nearly shed a tear every time. simply beutifull.

Best song from Hot Fuss, lyrics are something else.

[@carllama4125]

I used to have this song set as the alarm. Everyday I would wake up for school at 6:30 and the first thing I heard was the first line. I think especially for the time I was going through and the nature of growing up, it was fitting. Sounds really convey memory, every time I hear this song it takes me back to drowsily waking up and rushing off to school. Even in my own mind I can’t experience the moment as vividly as I do when I hear this song. All in all it’s a great song, and really embodies what it feels like to grow up, or to feel nostalgia. All in all, 10/10 song.

Best Killers song.

Hmmm idk, it's a tough toss between this, when we were young, be still, and i haven't even gotten to their other songs.

[@nevenamijailovic4291]

I should be learning for my exams, but here I am, crying to this song

[@liam5254]

I did my exams a while back, so I can help you out on what it's like. Your mock exams are harder than your real ones. To revise use past papers. That's it in short i wish you luck.

[@old.tables1989]

Lmao, legit same

I should be doing school work while I'm stuck at home, but here I am, crying to this song.

Well, in hindsight, it was a good decision. Those exams are likely to have never happened due to the coronavirus.

This is honestly my favorite song of all time. It gives me such bittersweet emotions and it's been my favorite song since high school.

As beautiful as Sam's Town was, Hot Fuss will forever be The Killers' best album.

Such a fantastic band. I remember rocking these in my Army barracks back in the early 2000s. Us British absolutely love the Killers

Every year, every decade goes past. We remember the people we once knew and loved. The people who were here before us, and those we loved. The memories hold a huge piece of our lives.

[@lanceuppercut6168]

Ain't that the truth. I lost someone very near and dear to me. I constantly feel myself drowning the negative thoughts just to try to cope. It'll get better I say, and close my eyes and look toward a brand new day.

There was a video for this song!?!?! How did I not know!

[@jens2049]

Jose Mazon same thought

[@KWOKAROTTO]

Something simple such as smiling can have so many different connotations. Smile like you mean it even if life is sad. Smile when you're happy a natural reaction but an act that should be done often. You never know when life can hit you. So enjoy those moments and smile. :)

[@outragequitter5027]

I get a The Strokes vibe from this song mixed with a little 80’s new wave. Such a great album.

[@TheMinesweeps]

This was one hell of a music video

[@khadijah6141]

seriously creepy

[@shaunhill817]

Why is it creepy?

[@233Runner]

The Minesweeps one hell of a song! Turn it up to “11!”

[@hellhightide]

Shaun Hill idk but another one of my favourite bands have made a bunch of mvs with ghosts / the lead singer as a ghost so it isn’t that creepy.

[@shaunhill817]

yeah i guess, but the killers as ghosts... would be an awesome thought. Just depressing :( the whole video

[@ggagrai5115]

The Synth intro is hella cursed . Makes me nostalgic for the things I've never even experienced

This house is hella cursed. 4 ghostly apparitions just lounging around and stuff.
