Hot N Cold is so overplayed for me now :( Still an amazing song though. Her next single is also awesome <3

Human has much more top 10 longevity than I expected :o

"Ur So Gay" would be an awful song choice! :puke: It's my least fave on the album!

I always thought 'Human' would hang around a long time.

UGH at the vile Akon creature climbing though :/

Though a batch of 1980s-New Wave-inspired bands started making noise in the early 2000s, it wasn't until the Killers' 2004 debut album HOT FUSS (and its crossover hits "Somebody Told Me" and "Mr. Brightside") that the style really broke through to the mainstream. Heavily indebted to the likes of the Smiths, Psychedelic Furs, et al, the Las Vegas, NV quartet brought a contemporary sense of urgency to their retro-loving dance-rock sound and taught a new generation of kids that it doesn't have to be disco to be dance music. For follow-up SAM'S TOWN, the group obviously feasted on a gorge of Bruce Springsteen style rock, and while the sound boasted a slightly harder edge, the group retained the critics' and fans' adoration. - HMV

What is funny??

 

Because you're so deluded... what makes you think it will go back into the top 10 next week exactly?

I wish Katy Perry would release 'Your So Gay' instead of the vile Thinking Of You :puke2: :funky:

 

Oh no... I'm really not keen on that one and I can't see it growing on me either. :( Self Inflicted would make a good release, althoguh it sounds too similar to I Kissed A Girl and Hot N Cold.

Bored of Human now.

When I heard it first I thought it was brilliant, but I've gone off it big time. And I'm still really unimpressed with the album too! :(

I think his father die young as well

 

Yep, his father Tim Buckley died in 1975 after he commited suicide.

I love 'Your So Gay' to be fair I havent heard all the album tracks. I really like 'If You Can Afford Me' and 'One Of The Boys'

 

I'm glad Hot and Cold, stuck around for a while it is a really good track, although not the version thats played on Radio 1 and in my work!

AKON?! :arrr:

womanizer is really growing on me.....(somebody please shoot me)

 

go see your doctor! there is a cream that he can prescribe now !!!

 

Hot N Cold is so overplayed for me now :( Still an amazing song though. Her next single is also awesome <3

 

 

Is it defo 'Thinking of You' as its been changed a few times what was meant to be released. You like Buffy how cool :yahoo:

i think he's talking about womanizer
