Why am I posting a 40 second clip of the brand new Killers single? Because their Hot Fuss follow-up Sam's Town (out 10/3) is one of the best albums of the last 20 years, if you haven't heard.
The Killers - "When You Were Young" (MP3 Sample)
I'll replace the link with a full version when Fall Out Boy leaks it to me.

Man I can't wait until this album gets slammed. Apparently, making one of the "best albums in the last 20 years" involves keeping the same sound you already had and trying to incorporate bad lyrics with a Springsteen keyboard.

From that snippet, one could easily tell they sound very different from before. Now to be certain whether that's a good thing or a bad thing, we'll have to wait a full three months more, which is a bummer -- for both fans and non-fans (it's too long a time to wait to take them down and rip them to pieces!!!). As for Brandon's voice, I think they hardly put any effect on that at all. If they computerized it, it would've been more amazing than that 'coz that just sounds like plain Brandon to me. Whether that's good or bad, well, we all have different tastes.
Score = 0
his singing is terrible, as anyone who's seen them live can attest, on their previous record they managed to cover it up, but this time the cat's out of the bag. a screeching wobbly cat on heat. and the track sounds like a late period suede to me....

it's like they chose to pay tribute to the Boss, but instead of emulating anything worthwhile (i.e. classic songwriting, great vocals), they picked gratuitous references to highways and cheesy synth sounds from his kind-of-bad Born in the USA-era.
similar to how "emo" bands claim to be influenced by Morrissey, while the only discernible evidence of this influence is really really long song titles.
Score = 0
Too many strings, but that's just some people's way of making something sound "epic."
Their first album was really good. People praise nada surf and weezer, but this isn't really that far removed from the good guitar rock bands of the 90s...
so it's a little emo-- it's a lot better than the screaming "i hate my dad-isms of most of that scene.
i guess it's easier to talk shit, but would you rather be hearing TRAPT on the radio? I kinda think they're the smashing pumpkins of our generation... kinda pompous, really catchy, prone to moments of ridiculous pomposity, but in 10 years time, when they come on in the bar, we'll all be saying "these guys were actually pretty awesome."
Score = 0
I kind of enjoyed it, but his voice sounded very weak and wobbly unlike their last cd.

Jason's comment above is on point. Springsteen's arguably worth looking up to more than Duran Duran or whoever their previous influences were, yeah, but I still don't know what the point is in paying attention to mediocre music when there are better things out there.
For the sake of fun rock feuds, we all have to admit it's better than Fall Out Boy.
The Killers are the Counting Crows to Fall Out Boy's Sister Hazel. SLAMMMM!!!!

This song has leaked, but I can't find it anywhere. They've been playing it on KROQ, apparently. And I heard this clip does it NO justice, so don't be so cynical. I love The Killers, by the way, but I'm not trying to be biased. It's a good song after a few listens, but it doesn't exactly pop the way some songs on Hot Fuss did. And I have to agree Brandon's voice sounds more wobbly, which is really a shame. I'm not entirely sure why he's doing that now, but I wonder if he'll do that on tour.
Score = 0
Oh, and when I first heard this the first thing that popped into my head was Bon Jovi's "Livin On A Prayer". Which is a good thing, to me.
Score = 0
Its shocking to me how many haters there are out there. Finally a band comes around that writes songs with real integrity and breaks into the mainstream (and sells a few records) and everyone is quick to shoot them down. They are trying to evolve-- that is admirable. Most of the music "cognoscenti" that are blabbing about the Springsteen reference would never have even caught it had it not been placed in their feeble minds. If Hot Fuss had sold 250K they'd be hailing the band kings of the indie-rock world.
Since when do we critique new music based on 30-second clips anyway?
Score = 0
you guys are really pounding on this song. i can be honest, i didn't like this song upon first hearing it. i was very dissapointed. after listening to it a a few days later, it really grew on me. in my opinion, its a really good song (hard to base it on a 40 second clip). his voice is very good, and those who say he is dependent on effects, have you ever heard them live? he sounds very much the same. there one of the best live bands ive seen.
until we here a full song, please dont pound this song to dust.

I guess I can be biased and say I LOVE it
because all of you people are being biased in saying it (as in the 40 SECOND preview) sucked. But the snippet and the full version I think are awesome whether I liked them before or hated them.
Bruce Springsteen is an INFLUENCE as in they aren't covering his songs or making something they predicted would come from him so stop comparing The Killers to Bruce Springsteen because those are 2 different sounds.

it has been overrated by anyone who says its best music in 20 years, and its not the best of the killers either. But its just 40 seconds of a single. Also, anyone who picks on his voice in this track, its really crappy mp3 format, get it on vinyl or at least the cd before you say it sux.

I am actually very fond of this new style. Hot fuss was a very good album and I think that's why people are slagging this song. It was a hard album to live up to. Anyway, the song is of crappy quality anyway and it will be better on CD. I love The Killers and Im sure that this new album is going to be great. The best music in 20 years? We'll have to wait and see won't we. But don't smash on the song, anyone who does that is either, drugged up, hypocritical, drugged up, jealous, too opinionated or drugged up.

I am a big Killers fan. I loved Hot Fuss. Almost every song was great (Everything Will Be Alright definitely isn't that good). Unfortunately, a snippet this short isn't enough to judge the whole song but you get the idea- you can't expect EVERY song of the album to be top notch, although you wished it was to be that way. And yes, this is not a typical Killers song, it's different. And let's hope, at least I am hoping "Sam's Town" is going to be awesome...

When You Were Young is a fantastic song, completely different from anything on Hot Fuss. I love the direction they've taken and Sam's Town will be brilliant. If you dont like it - please don't feel the need to comment - your opinion is not appreciated because it is clearly wrong.

I have heard the whole song and the minor springsteenish sound. If that wasn't written on mtv.com none of you would even notice it.

Lets get this out of the way first: all you bashers are bitches, okay done with that. I have heard the full song and absolutely love it. You can't base a comment on a 40 second clip (no matter how good it is) you have to hear the whole thing to judge it. Brandon Flowers has a great voice, a lot better than any of you could do (or me for that matter) so saying it's "wobbly" is a little ill conceived. So listen to a song in it's full glory, except if it's Rap because, well let's not get into that...
Score = 0
This track is powerful...I feel bad for the hipsters, cos the worst thing you can throw at this is that it doesn't actually sound like Springsteen. This track feels natural and is absolutely massive. If they'd cloned Born To Run, people would hate it. Since they didn't, wannabe elitists are trying to use it against them.
If this track is a knockoff of anything, it's Ryan Adams songs like "Tonight" (bonus track from Cold Roses), right down to the Adams-esque vocals.
The people who hate this track sound just like the ones who used to rip into Oasis for making big, powerful music instead of sulking in some indie corner. I doubt it'll be as huge a success, but I do hope Sam's Town goes multi platinum and kills off the remenants of all the bands who are scared of decent production, writing a good song, and making the music they wanna make, and all the emo soundalikes while they're at it. Just like Oasis killed off the bastard children of grunge, and just like Cobain killed off crap like GNR.

Personally, I like this new song just as much as I liked the songs on Hot Fuss. I don't agree with the stuff people are saying about Brandon's voice being shaky and whatnot. I think that in When You Were Young, he actually takes the oppurtunity to stretch his vocals and it sounds great. His voice sounded good on Hot Fuss, but in this new single, it's not covered up as much with synthesizers and instruments. You can actually hear him reaching those high notes and tell how his voice has evolved.

Speaking as someone who hates the Killers and is going to love Snakes on a Plane, I HAVE heard the whole version and I COULD judge the whole song on a 40 second clip. Why? Because "We're burning down the highway skyline on the back of a hurricane" painted one of the lamest mental images to ever find it's way into a song and IT'S THE FUCKING CHORUS. That sounds like Ryan Adams rewrote "I Can't Drive 55." I don't care about Springsteen comparisons, but I'm sick of people saying that glamorous, macho bullshit is going to "save the mainstream." This is not, in fact, the worst period in time for radio. Sure it's bad, but if it merits saving by The Killers (of all bands, The Killers?) then pop music MUST be terrible.

Heywood Banks said it best in his song "Write Bob Dylan A Check". (Sheryl Crow, Tom Petty et al should just write Bob Dylan a check for all their work was the point of the song.) Buncha haters on here goin' postal on The Killers going Springsteen on "Sam's Town", when a couple years back everyone was all goin' haters on "Hot Fuss" saying they were Duran Duran. The Killers are The Killers are The Killers are The Killers are not you and you're just f***ing jealous. So there.

"THE BEST ALBUM IN TWENTY YEARS" is misunderstood and as its "when you were young" song that should be the most successful secular song to almost RIP the LIE of religion apart.
you guys have been talking about the song scape but you have missed the WHOLE POINT. read the lyrics and understand what it intended to say.
See the meaning of "He doesn't look a thing like Jesus"
An awesome one liner with many layers of attack on the wickedness of ancient religion to deceive man to idolize (in this instance JESUS). The whole story about the heart broken girl is not about a normal love gone wrong.Its about the dark side of catholism causing ppl or the woman in this instance being indoctrinated for years to think that a man if he happens to resemble the features of Jesus should a good man.
Its a retake on the truth that if you create an image and say its good. ppl tend to associate it unwittingly through conditioning. Thats a deep truth!!!!
How's that for a song? Mosts bands (even Radiohead) are child's play and they are a juvenile bunch trying to be clever with words. Without any essence off course.
The Killers is trying to be like U2. Trying to review the truth tactfully through songs without being banned or worse...
