The Killers – Mr. Brightside

Hace mucho que no traía a mi querido Brandon por estos lares (al menos acompañado de sus angelitos). Así que tiraremos de uno de sus primeros éxitos, presente en su disco debut: Hot Fuss (2004). Lo que más me gusta de The Killers es que han ido mutando con cada álbum y aún así, me siguen conquistando con sus nuevos registros. Así que si comparamos este Mr. Brightside con su más reciente Human, no parece ni la misma banda.

Atención a la versión swing que se marca Paul Anka y al mashup junto a Life in Technicolor de Coldplay. Esta semana toca ponerse el traje de miss optimista 🙂

Letra:

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss

Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his-chest

Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go

And I just can’t look it’s killing me
And taking control

[estribillo]
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr Brightside

I’m coming out of my cage
And I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep
And she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke
And she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head
But she’s touching his-chest
Now, he takes off her dress
Now, letting me go

Cause I just can’t look its killing me
And taking control

[estribillo]

I never…
I never…
I never…
I never…
