Hi Lyndsey , I have fairly regular tweets with Mike Scott and gave him my version of the meaning of this glorious song, that it’s great in life to have somebody to help you when things are bad and can see the bigger picture ie I saw the crescent,you saw the whole of the moon. I asked if I could have the song for a day. Mike replied ‘you’re wrong, but nice interpretation’ and gave me the song for a day , so I’ve owned it, for a day

I pictured a rainbow You held it in your hands I had flashes But you saw the plan I wandered out in the world for years While you just stayed in your room I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon Hmm, you were there in the turnstiles, with the wind at your heels You stretched for the stars and you know how it feels to reach too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon I was grounded While you filled the skies I was dumbfounded by truth You cut through lies I saw the rain dirty valley You saw Brigadoon I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon I spoke about wings You just flew I wondered, I guessed and I tried You just knew I sighed But you swooned, I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon with a torch in your pocket and the wind at your heels You climbed on the ladder and you know how it feels to get too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon, hey yeah! Unicorns and cannonballs, palaces and piers Trumpets, towers and tenements Wide oceans full of tears Flags, rags ferryboats Scimitars and scarves Every precious dream and vision Underneath the stars, yes, you climbed on the ladder With the wind in your sails You came like a comet Blazing your trail too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon

Dawkins was a massive jerk and Brandon was put on the spot with no preparation nor time to even properly respond - it was a nasty and pathetic set up. Apart from that, the little he did get to say was correct - Dawkins WAS just factually just wrong - Joseph Smith was NOT convicted at all.

@@jackjude perhaps you're correct. But imagine if they released the exact same records starting around 1985 or 1986. That's the two stand out years for synth, and alternative music that hadn't been played on radio as much previously. That's the context I was speaking in.

@@ghostscantkill to me they sound like a band influenced by the 80s rather than a 80's band. I would say though the high point for synth was a good few years earlier - the turn of the 80's; With Kraftwerk, Yazoo, Ultravox, Human League, Gary Numan, Soft Cell, OMD's best work.

@@jackjude as I mentioned the context. Think fantasy football. Put aside reality, and the fact you feel they sound like a band influenced by the 80's, and not an actual 80's band. Again. Synth bands didn't get broad, and consistent air play on mega radio stations until some time in 1984 really (in the U.S. anyway). But they really started getting it good in 85', 86'. Yes. Synth bands definitely were getting lots of play, and attention from MTV from the beginning, but that's MTV not radio as I mentioned.

One of the best songs ever written. Glad that The Killers gave it the respect it deserves. Good cover.

I have always been impressed at how Brandon Flowers and the Killers give justice to the songs they cover. I view him as a guy who loves the 80s esp. on the new wave stuff. I recall he had a collaboration with Bernard Summer and New Order for a track which was absolutely fantastic!

Saw them when they brought on The Pet Shop Boys. Who are also one of my fave bands from the 80s.

I'm a huge Waterboys fan, and I was preparing myself for a bunch of crap. Nope, this is a really, really good cover version.

If there was ever going to be a band to cover this song, yeah the killers were made for it. Brilliant job 🏴🙌🏻✌🏻

Interesting, I'm the same age and I'm more a kid of the 90's. I do love 80's stuff, but never bought records or saw bands at that time.

Love this version as much as the original - such a great song - an anthem to those that believe in us more than we believe in ourselves, see more in us than we see in ourselves - I saw the rain dirt valley, you saw brigadoon,,,,I saw a crescent, you saw the whole of the moon, such a beautifully written song 😊
