I like it more every time I hear it! It’s fun, good hooks, fitting vocals…everything it takes to make a hit pop song.
It does kind of remind me of Coldplay’s “Talk”, as far as guitar goes. The hooks…well, they remind me of lots of songs, Springsteen, Meatloaf, too many others to name. I guess that’s how music gets popular right? Appeal to the masses.
This grows on you…..
That first album was a quality album…for the second to surpass it is gonna be tough
but livin in hope
OH lord.. I loved Hot Fuss… Loved it to death.. when i heard this i was skepitcal of there new cd because i didnt immediately like it as i did Hot Fuss’ songs. But it grew on me after 10 listens. ahahha now i love it!! YAY
OMG wake up everyone. The Killers are the best. The song isn’t so MUCH of a step up from Hot Fuss. But I love it. I can’t wait to hear the whole CD. The song kinda has the same flow as Hot Fuss which is good. They aren’t trying to reinvent themselves into something they aren’t. You gotta love the sound. Like some said THEY ARE FROM VEGAS AFTERALL. Their style is to go overboard and unnaturally awesome.
i take back the part about sounding like Hot Fuss. This shit soudns nothing like Hot Fuss. His vocals are more higher, which you have to love. This single is the best and you all know you are anticipating the release of Sam’s Town because you know the killers will..well…kill it.
If you don’t like The Killers, then I can only feel sorry for you. Not only are you missing out on some of the best music around, you are most likely also an idiot.
SMILE LIKE YOU MEAN IT BITCHES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m really glad The Killers came on the scene… they’re tons of fun. Fresh sound, interesting lyrics, gorgeous to look at, and wonderful musicians all. I love this new song from their second album. It’s so… emotional.. hard-driving… exciting… and beautiful. Exquisitely arranged, really. ~sigh~ Thanks Killers.
The killers are fantastic , the best in the word.
And the new single is just like brandon said , the best in 20 years.
I’ve never heard somerhing so good like the killers.
I love them !!!

I am a huge Killers fan and when I first heard this song, I was a little dissapointed. I felt like it wasn’t as catchy as their other songs. WITH that said, after I heard it a couple of more times, it actually started to grow on me. I now absolutely love it, still not my favorite Killers song, but def worth listening to!!
I must admit when he first started singing on this track I cringed and thought “oh no” but I’ve realized something. I think the people who say they hate is vocals just listen to the vocals and not how they blend with the rest of the song. Brandon Flower’s doesn’t have the best voice but its very unique I think. a lot of the singers to rock bands sound the same to me (and luckily that sound is a good one)and its hard to tell who does what song. but I think I’ll always be sure that its the Killers. And his voice goes really well with the sound of the band. and overthetop? yes! that’s what makes them great to me, they’re shameless. and I agree that the song gets better with subsequent listenings.
yes… it does get better if you listen to it a few times. his voice annnoys me a bit though. HE JUST WON’T STOP WHINING!!!!!! grr…

it sounds more like meatloaf to me…which is AWESOME!
get over urselfs u sound like such a bunch of useless old women fuck off aye there the ones who r rich and famous n ure sad n ugly so fuck up
The vocals seem somehow detatched [not to mention rather thin, wobbly and echo-laden]. And when the swelling synth/guitar riff kicks in it seems to confuse everything. The “driving down the highway” stuff scares me a little, given the 80s-esque leanings of Hot Fuss. And no-one seems to have commented on the misguided backing vocal section towards the end that comes out of the blue and goes nowhere. I loved Hot Fuss but, on the strength of this release, I’m worried about Sam’s Town. Very worried.
the song is pure classs!!!! yoooooooooo!! hehe i luv it!!
OMG!
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!!!
all those people who dont like the killers can go fuck there mums and then eat there assses!!!!! get laid bitches!!!
=Q
I love it……..but then I love Brandon Flowers. I think it’s a great song, he’s got a great voice. I’m a Killers fan for life.
Didn’t hear it here first, but keep coming here to listen to it again. Absolutely loving it, along with the video. Thanks for posting it.

los amooooo!!
oseaaa a quien no pueden gustarle the killers!! pinche gente decerebrada de mierda no saben reconocer la buena musica, si no entienden consiganse un traductor haha
the killers son lo mejor del mundo!
The killers are the best of the world.
They can´t be judge with only song, you don´t know how it´s going to listen the full album.
The song is great and video too
If you don´t understand me, sorry….I need practise more english.
OMG LOVE THIS SONG!!! this is the BEST band ever I love this song the video is awesome!!
dude it s coo;
Yah, I like this song, in someways it reminds me of the CARS.but I like it.
This song is a great song, and all the people who hate it don’t have a taste in music
ok i couldnt be stuffed to read all the comments. too many. i like the song and i think they have potential past what they did with hot fuss. i’ve heard a few of the songs that didnt make it on to the album and they rocked harder than half that stuff.
i really like it. its been stuck in my head all day. hell im listening to it now but yea its certaintly not the best in twenty years
just another feeble attempt at reincarninting a classic rock song to try and further yourself in the mainstream… it worked for the ataris, briefly. so, when in need of a hit, redo a decade-old hit. it’s so sad… 2 years from now… “the killers who?” – “oh yeah they did a horrible version of springsteen’s ‘when you were young’” blah.
I like the song very much
The song fits the killers very good and its their typical sound… cant understand why ppl complain about it. Its just music and you like it or not you dont have to make a big deal about it everytime a band brings out their new stuff and start a discusion about them losing their roots -.-
Dear god people! This is only one song. Lets see what the whole album is like before we judge the direction the killers are taking.
The song was pretty good. I’m a musician so I tend to hear the bad notes more than most, but even this song just had some fine tuning work. Yeah Brandons voice is strained half the time. Hopefully the album version will be a little more clean.
The lyrics are still the usual killers tone, but the music itself is more upbeat. Still sounds great to me. Although, I do agree the killers should lean a little more toward their hot fuss sound for a thrid album. The band is still doing great.
You guys are a bunch of idiots. If you knew better, you would know that this album is influnced more by American Rock, rather than the last album which is more on the British side.
omg!! this song is so gr8 ! i love it! im not one to like this kind of music …. im the kind of person who loves 50 cent g-unit …you know that kinda music! but this song jst ment somthin to me! its a fantastc song! luv tiz xx
Simplicity is the key. Of course it’s not Stravinsky but I like it. With such piece of pop aboard a car, gearbox will change gears much faster.
Hang on – hang on, seriously………hang on. That Riff – is a rip of ‘talk’ by coldplay is it Jon? Grow some ears boy, you have issues.
Who don’t you whinging rich boys and girls just sit back and enjoy this song rather than criticise everything you hear. Springsteen was great, but this is 2006 now – move on!!!
I bet you lot are the sort of people who’d whinge at a train being 1 minute late and self harm yourself because of it.
Go home.
Does anyone else hear the Psychadelic Furs? Yeah, it sounds somewhat derivative, but this is one of the first songs in YEARS that has me rocking out and crying – simultaneoulsy.
This is a great, great fucking song.
i think it is a little messed up with the lyrics but i like it alot deffinetly gettn da album. some of yu guys don’t know what your talkin bout, there completely diff to any other music out there thats what make them nique…. take care jeffro

When we were young has a mix of Freddie Mercury and queen background harmony, Springstein, and bowie. not a bad mix job
using song riffs from albums from the 70-80′s.

i love this track. rip off or not. its a great song and a cool break from the hip-hop-crap-pimp yo-track-ghetto-is-cool-gargle-a-mouthful-of nitro-bend-it-like-beckham-tokyo-drift-horse-sh!t i’ve been having to listen too!
Love it
I don’t kwow what you are all talking about the song being a rip off. Who fucking cares? the song sounds good and has real meaning unlike lots of the other shit being produced today. I don’t even like the killer I think they’re queer but this song is a sraight up jam.
And to all you people out their dissin rap go fuck yourself. Mike Jones and so many new rappers are complete shit but if you want some real gangsta tunes check out some geto boys, or 2pac or some new stuff from rick ross.
man this song is fuckin awesome!!
i love it .. i wouldn’t say it’s the best killers song but yet!
its pretty fuckin sweet!
gotta love this band dude .. its some happy/melancolic vibe about their songs .. can’t get enough of it
fuck ya’ll haters
peaceee
win and realplayer? pleez. retire.
love this song! artists have got to try hard to get anywhere in the music industry! and this has damn well paid off in this killers song.
it reminds me a bit of beautiful day by u2 but i love the tune and the lyrics, best thing i`ve heard for ages.
Ive never felt so violated in my whole life.
tut this song is amazing. It makes me shiver – I luv it! x
guys, if you don’t like this song – it’s your own problem. it’s catchy and awesome. i was kinda surprised cause i expected more but anyway go and fuck yourself!!! they are from vegas and they rock!it’s an independent opinion from Russia.By the way, the greatest bands are The Stone Roses and Oasis!!!!!!!)))))) have a nice weekend
It baffled me very much, but always when i listened theirs songs at first time i didn’t like them at all and didn’t even understand how can people listen such a piece of shit or how can they stand his voice especially. But some time after i listened it again and realized that the songs were pretty good!!
I suppose this was because of vocal, not of Flowers voice by itself(it sounds not bad), but of what they get after recording…They definitely do something with it because the voice is felt so unnatural.It seems like he sang not through a microphone but through some kind of pipe! But it still not very bad (even James Hatfield sounds ridiculous in his early albums) So i hope they’ll found their sound!
And what about “When You Were Young”, by now I’ve listened it about 10 times or somthing like that and as you can guess eventually i love it!!!
Half of you cunts don’t know what you’re talking about. Why don’t most of you fuck off!
i dont care wat u lot say u all have bad taste (except the ones that like it) i think its great and u all suck altough i do agree wiv the person who says they want them 2 go back to the darkside
this song sucks. springsteen sucks. no more derivative crap please.
Though in one part it sounds like bruce on the other hand I think it sounds more like “The Cars”
Open you ears…Piece of class
rip off or not, this song is pretty good. For those who think it’s about the devil… I’m not too sure about that, maybe you’re looking too deep.
I’m sure it’s about a girl who has done some bad things in her life and shes looking for that one guy to come for her, sure he may not be perfect but he’s what shes been imagining since she was young. Doesn’t look a thing like Jesus, but more than she’ll ever know, because she’s done some bad things… maybe not going to ‘heaven’ soooooooo she’d only come in contact with the devil… so she would never see Jesus…
This song reminds of a young girl from southern Mexico who falls in love with an older man. He saves her from her old fashioned values by taking her virginity. They marry and all is great. She catches him cheating, considers suicide, but he comes to the rescue. He doesn’t look a thing like Jesus, but he saves her. He is all she knows. She goes back to her old ways and like a good woman tolerates infidelity. Sadness
Uusally i don’t like leaving footprints all over the internet but i just had to say how amazing this song is! Like rel bad! i love the part were he says the devil water is sweet but you could dip your feet once in a while! big line dread! bom bo clad!
HOLA MI MSN ES YOBA_64@HOTMAIL.COM THE KILLERS ES LO MAXIMO
How come most of the girls love this song and all the guys hate it? Oh,thats right,its because guys dont wanna hear about a girl getting thier heart broken cuz really all most of them care about it havin sex and seein how close they can get to them and could care less about a girls feelin i quote’screw’m then lose’m. imean i like guys and all but seriously,get a grip I need a real man!
I Love the song ”When You Were Young”
i listen to it all the time
yalll are the best
your a fuckin bellend y dnt u let it b played fuckin nob cheese!!!!
your a fuckin bellend y dnt u let it b played fuckin nob cheese!!!!
Well I like the song a lot. I don’t care as much as some of you do about rock, but this song touched me a lot (I’m a guy). The music catches and keeps attention and the voice of the singer is full of emotion, even if vocally speaking I think he has still some improvements to do.
About the video, I don’t think that the (Asian?…well, we will say pretty) girl is coming back because she tolerates that her husband is cheating on her; I think that she decided to fight for him when he came to save her from suicide. In addition, we can clearly see that his desire for his wife returned when he watches her cleaning her feet. Well, the song was fun, even more with the video: we don’t have stereotyped people, though they’re beautiful^^
I cant stop listening to it!!!!!!!! its my favorite
this is the best song ever
This song is holding up way after its release. Springsteen mixed with the Cars from a Vegas perspective is an original concept if nothing else. Cheers to Flowers and the rest of the Killer boys for making a great song. Looking forward to the next album.
Regardless of your opinions on this song, most of you need to grow the fuck up. A few english lessons wouldn’t hurt either.
Ha – look at all the wannabe music journos claiming plagiarism and doing their best to diss creativity. Everyone’s an expert huh? Get a life guys – great song, you ever tried writing one?
