    About The Killers:
    The Killers are a Las Vegas-based four-piece who formed in 2003, featuring the talents of singer/keyboardist Brandon Flowers, drummer Ronnie Vanucci, guitarist Dave Keuning and bassist Mark Stoermer. The band has received countless accolades for their artistic achievement, including multiple Grammy nominations, American Music Award nominations, MTV Video Music Awards, NME Awards and more.Their first album, Hot Fuss, was released in 2004 to worldwide acclaim.The album contained the singles “Mr. Brightside” and “Somebody Told Me,” in addition to the anthemic song “All These Things That I’ve Done,” which has since been referenced by the likes of U2 and Coldplay.The band toured for two years straight behind Hot Fuss, playing more than four-hundred shows, and eventually returned to Vegas to begin to work on the follow-up album with legendary producers Alan Moulder and Flood.The result, a love letter of sorts to their hometown entitled Sam’s Town, was released in 2006 and spent forty-two weeks on the Billboard Top 200.A b-sides collection entitled Sawdust was released in 2007, followed by their third studio album, Day & Age, which was released to widespread critical praise in 2008, anchored by massive single “Human.”The Killers released Battle Bornin September 2012, which saw them expanding their world tour into countries they’ve never visited before, and finally were honored to perform at the world-renowned Wembley Arena, one of the most monumental and significant shows of their career.After a decade of making music, in November 2013, The Killers released a “Best Of” collection, Direct Hits, which featured two incredible new songs alongside classics from the band’s revered catalogue.The band, who have sold over twenty-five million albums worldwide, and headlined all of the world’s top festivals (Coachella, Lollapalooza, Glastonbury), released their newest studio album, Wonderful Wonderful, in September 2017, where it landed at No. 1 on the Billboard Top 200 chart the week of its release, as well a stopping the charts in the U.K. and Australia. The album is the band’s fifth consecutive number one in the U.K., and Brandon Flowers’ seventh U.K. number one overall.

    I’m almost 45 years old, my son who is 20 years younger than me, introduced me to The Killers about 5 years ago when we were driving to Arkansas from Oklahoma. He played Prize Fighter and told me it reminded him of me💙 His father and I have been married for 26 years. 7-8 years ago his father got into a fist fight with another man and unfortunately the other man died and his father was sentenced to prison for manslaughter. During our drive to Arkansas I was already won over with Prize Fighter and then he said this song reminds me of u and dad and he played Dustland Fairytale 💙 To me it was as if The Killers were writing songs about our life and I became an instant fan!!!! Then in 2019 I heard that The Killers were coming to Oklahoma City and I immediately ordered tickets for us!!! It’s been a year this month since that concert and it was by far the best concert ever that either one of us have attended!!! They even played this song!!! The Killers music is something that my son and I will always share and love!! No matter what kind of hell is going on in our lives we can turn on The Killers and it’s as if everything is alright. So I just wanted to tell The Killers that Stacey & Slade Tosh from Oklahoma City are their biggest fans and that their music means more than words can say to us and for that we’d like to offer the most sincerest thank you!!!! We hope they’ll come back to Okc again soon cause we will certainly be there!!!!!!!! 💙 The Killers 💙

    Lyrics:
    A Dustland fairytale beginning
    With just another white trash county kiss
    In '61, long brown hair and foolish eyes
    He looked just like you'd want him to
    Some kind of slick chrome American prince
    A blue jean serenade
    Moon River what'd you do to me
    I don't believe you
    Saw Cinderella in a party dress but
    She was looking for a night gown
    I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
    He's getting ready for the showdown
    I saw the minute that I turned away
    I got my money on a pawn tonight
    The change came in disguise of revelation, set his soul on fire
    She said she'd always knew he'd come around
    And the decades disappear like sinking ships, but we persevere
    God gives us hope, but we still fear what we don't know
    The mind is poison
    Castles in the sky sit stranded vandalized
    We're drawbridges closing
    Saw Cinderella in a party dress
    But she was looking for a nightgown
    I saw the devil wrapping up his hands
    He's getting ready for the showdown
    I saw the ending when they turned the page
    I threw my money and I ran away
    Straight to the valley of the great divide
    Out where the dreams all hide
    Out where the wind don't blow
    Out here the good girls die
    And the sky won't snow
    Out here the bird don't sing
    Out here the field don't grow
    Out here the bell don't ring
    Out here the bell don't ring
    Out here the good girls die
    Now Cinderella don't you go to sleep
    It's such a bitter form of refuge
    Why don't you know the kingdom's under siege
    And everybody needs you
    Is there still magic in the midnight sun
    Or did you leave it back in sixty-one
    In the cadence of a young man's eyes
    Out where the dreams all hide

I sat in my room and for three days I had Dustland Fairytale on repeat helplessly trying to fix everything that went wrong, until I eventually accepted my Cinderella had left for her better kingdom. Without the song I just wouldn't have made it. I'm grateful for it.

      I'm such a big fan of the colors and totally never heard this song. It came out at a time of my life when I was moving back to the United States from living in Europe. For the next two years I had to play catch up and build a life back in the States and completely miss this song. And I'm in my kitchen procrastinating on working out and crying

      To say the Beatles are overrated is ridiculous. They created the blueprint from which virtually all other bands since have followed. Their influence over popular music is so gargantuan it can't ever be quantified. Most artists today, from any genre, will cite them as a direct influence, or at least as an influence on the artists that influenced them. Long rant but I really hate it when people say the Beatles are overrated.

    They’re both great in their own ways obviously but listening to this and the Bruce collab back to back makes you realise how much Brandon’s voice has matured and improved over the years. Vocally he’s on a whole other level now

      Yeah. It's crazy seeing those two together. Bruce Springsteen still performs at a top level at his age but Brandon is in his prime
      It felt like watching him pass the torch in a way. Brandon is a true rockstar
