This sounds like it's straight from a Miami Vice soundtrack from the 80's, and that's a good thing in my books.

When is the video premiering. I need it in my life. I mean, I need this whole ALBUM in my life immediately. I am probably one of the biggest Killers/Brandon Flowers fans on the planet. I have seen The Killers close to 10 times in concert at this point and Brandon once.

I must have played this like 5 times in a row when doing laundry and almost caused the elevator to break while jerking around like a dying fish. Every second of this song is perfect.

I'm sure this will grow on me if I start hearing it on the radio but on first listen I'm pretty indifferent to it.

This is so good. It was an instant love and it's been stuck in my head ever since the first listen, not that that's a bad thing. I love the retro feel to it.

I actually prefer this to Crossfire I changed my opinion and actually think that this is as good as Crossfire; that song had the better vibe but the chorus of this song is better. That said, a solid return from Brandon Flowers. Hopefully this reaches top 10 on Alternative.

I dig the 80s vibes on this. Even that single cover looks like it was ripped straight from a Glenn Frey LP sleeve or something.

It's growing on me after a few listens. The 80s influence is so heavy tho that I have to wonder if this wouldn't even remotely be considered Alternative if it wasn't Brandon Flowers doing this.

I like the production better than I like the song. The lyrics are kinda creepy.

This and "Dead Inside" by Muse will be two of my biggest songs of 2015. I just hope Brandon promotes the hell out of the song, so it gets the recognition it deserves on the charts.

Great video, but I wanted some shots of him singing that epic chorus woven in.

Stellar song. Easily the best song I've heard this year so far. Sounds great live, as well. What's up with the 80's setting though? Ick!

43 to 41 is no kind of a climb for an established artist like Brandon Flowers. Plus it actually got a negative on spins. Here is where I say "WTF Alt?"

the Stolen (spoiled) Milk strikes again, claiming yet another victim as it cock blocks The Top40 from Brandon's reach...at least for now
seriously people, when milk is several months past it's expiration date, throw it out (of the top10) !!!

Pulling a Daryl the Beryl, who recently pulled a shakermaker here: Debuts (finally) at #39 on Billboard Alternative. I can only hope this can go up more.

When I said pulling a shakermaker, I meant that (insert song title) debuted on Billboard before it hit top 40 on Mediabase (though Painted will hit top 40 on MB very soon)

This is very disappointing especially considering that this is a song that fits in the indie movement and that he is the frontman of one of alternative's pioneers (The Killers).
