Album Notes & Community Reviews
A ubiquitous staple of 2000s rock, 'Mr. Brightside' perfectly captures the neurotic jealousy of infidelity through a relentless, synth-driven indie rock arrangement. Remarkably, it was one of the first songs The Killers ever wrote together, drawing heavily on British new wave influences. Its enduring, multi-generational popularity has kept it consistently on the UK charts longer than nearly any other song in history.
