The Killers and Brandon Flowers ~ when I was young

I'm not asking you to understand, I know a song can have some special meaning in different situations for different people. But try to imagine what could be this wonderful music pouring down from the only radio station that introduced some rock into the everyday life of a high-schooler in a small port town in this corner of the world.

Part 1. The Killers 
anthem of my teenage - 'Mr. Brightside', 'Somebody told me'
The only source of rock, a radio station, frequently repeated The Killers' hits when they went out. The host of the program was speaking about rock world like it was a piece of cake for him, and it impressed me who was only 14 or something. A short song, but such a strong source of inspiration - had to try to finish a picture until the song ends. It's been 10 years. It's not true that such songs never change. They don't die and they don't become obsolete, that's true, but surely they stay inside their own time. For me, these two songs will forever stay a fragment of the anthem of my teenage.

The other great songs in the album are, for sure, 'Jenny Was a Friend of Mine' and 'Midnight Show'.
a song to think over - 'When You Were Young'
The second album is not my favourite, since except that one I did not like particularly any other song, however, I'm not saying it's bad. Still, 'When you were young' is a great, deep song with an overwhelming melody and impressing lyrics.

a song that took me some time to like - 'Read my mind'
At first I did not like it very much, but then my friend said to me: 'it's SUCH a wonderful song right?' And I listened to it again and thought - hell yeah. It is.

best song for a warm sunny afternoon in a fast moving bus - 'Human'
What I wanted to say is that 'Human' is a song that's actually good for any situation, but today was that magical moment when I felt the song kinda "superimpose" everything around me mysteriously and this created the wonderful effect of daydreaming.

and next to it goes
best song for a walk down the hill towards the blue sparkling sea - 'Spaceman'
After getting off the bus, I had to go downhill to get to my destination. I swear 'Spaceman' is just perfect for such a walk. Because EVERYBODY LOOK DOWN!

best song for a morning run to the bus stop - 'Flesh and Bone'
You see where it goes, right? The Killers' music is very energetic, and that is why it fits any situation when one has to move fast himself or sees anything moving fast, or experiences any strong emotions. Last year, hearing this song for the first time, I was running from one bus stop to another in a hurry. Who could think being late for work can be so joyful?

the best and the only - 'Here with Me'
Since they don't have many slow ballads, 'Here with me' is proclaimed (by me) the best ballad in their discography.

Other latest songs that I'd recommend are 'Deadlines and Commitments', 'Shot at the Night' and 'Just another girl'. They are all very inspiring and emotional.

Part 2. Brandon

best song ever - 'Can't deny my love'
No comment.

THE song that proclaimed to me that a new album is out - 'I can change'

I heard it on the radio and was impressed by it. However, I did not recognise Brandon at once. It was a shame, but this is what it means: even though I did not understand it's him, his song made me interested. I know there's the 'Smalltown boy' fragment in it, but it's beautifully merged with the vocals and the arrangement is wonderful.
a song to describe the performer - 'Only the Young'

If anybody asked me to explain what he's like, I'd pick up this one.
other good songs to check up: 'Swallow It', 'Hard Enough', 'Between Me and You', 'Untangled Love'.

conclusion
Even though the percentage of the songs I like is not very big - 4 out of 27 in case of Brandon (15%) and 12 out of 81 (15%) for The Killers, those songs that I did choose are all really great.
