Posted February 8, 20241 yr When I pitched the idea a couple of months ago that we have a new rate for The Killers… this was the response; Absolutely, please go for it! I can’t believe it’s been over FIVE YEARS since I did this. WoweeI would love for there to be a new Killers rate as well!Would be here for it too especially as I didn't take part in this one xI'd be up for a Killers rateSame here such an iconic band!Did someone say Killers rate? I'm in!Wouldn’t be against it. :) So here we are, welcome to The Killers Singles rate 2024! :welcome: The last one was hosted in 2018 by Dexton, so it’s certainly a good time to revisit their singles and rate your favourites. So let’s get this event underway… Rules Rate every single between 0 and 10 You may use one 11 and one -1, but these are optional Half marks are allowed, but please no 10.5 or 0.5! YouTube links and Spotify Playlists are supplied below Christmas singles may be rated too but this is optional and, as before, the results for those songs will be separate! Deadline Friday 1st March 2024 at 23:59 GMT Singles in Chronological Order: Christmas Singles:
February 8, 20241 yr Looking forward to rating this! Can we give 11 points to both a Xmas single and normal single if they are being rated seperate of?
February 8, 20241 yr Ooooh, there's a few I need to re-familiarise myself with but I am looking forward to taking part in this!
February 8, 20241 yr Author Looking forward to rating this! Can we give 11 points to both a Xmas single and normal single if they are being rated seperate of? Yes I suppose so, I don’t think it alters the overall outcome if you do that.
February 8, 20241 yr Looking forward to relistening through a few for this! Mainly the early ones, as I’m more than familiar with the post-Battle Born stuff. It’s a shame they never released an official single from Pressure Machine.
February 15, 20241 yr Author Do we post our votes on here or send you them in a PM? Hello! The idea is to post your ratings right here in this thread and at the end of the event I will count them all up. ^_^

Some strange choices.
February 19, 20241 yr Out of interest, how have you decided what a 'single' is and isn't? Some strange choices. I'm pretty sure those listed were all official singles, nothing strange about it! 'Somebody Told Me' FTW! :cheer:
February 19, 20241 yr Author Yeah I used Wikipedia’s list of official singles to make the list, it should be the same as Dexton’s list from 2018 with the additional singles since that time.
February 20, 20241 yr I'm pretty sure those listed were all official singles, nothing strange about it! 'Somebody Told Me' FTW! :cheer: It's interesting isn't it. 'Fire in Bone' and 'Dying Breed' were never sent to radio, were more instant grat songs or promo singles I believe, in the same way 'Wonderful Wonderul' and 'Some Kind Of Love' were from the Wonderful Wonderful album but they don't make the list. Whereas 'Blowback', from ITM, not on the list, was sent to radio. 'Quiet Town' from PM has a music video and was sent to radio in the US at least. But yes agree the Wikipedia list is the best to go with! Just find it interesting what does and doesn't count as a 'single' today.
February 20, 20241 yr Wardy and myself will be do a listening for this in 15 minutes if anyone has a hour or two spare to join along ^_^
