I am now regretting mentioning the rickroll in my comment
Just add a course that’s called how to play every Steve vai song in five minutes
@@owenbrad haha this made me chuckle
Mr brightside is catnip for drunk people
Lmao
Mr sidebright is drunk nip for cat people
For me, it’s probably Mister Blue Sky.
I thought that was Don't Stop Believing by Journey

Tyler’s version of What Makes This Song Great includes a guitar lesson and a killer cover. I love it when Tyler explores his inner Beato. More vids like this, please!
I was thinking the same thing, although Beato tosses in a bit more theory. I'd love to get more so I can hear multiple perspectives.
Yeah this was very Beato like. Agreed, a very good video!
A "killer" cover...
I remember going home after prom and this song came on my mom car radio and it is the first time i heard it and somehow i still can feel motion of that car ride when i hear that song everytime.
The magic of music my friend. The magic of music.
So weird. At this years prom it came on, then when I was on the way back, it came on again as well. I had already heard it before tho
It’s so weird to hear an “I feel cool” version of such a forlorn song. I think there’s something about the honesty of the sadness the band captured when writing this that doesn’t translate to the “hey would you look at that” energy of its examination. Needs more heartbreak.
Fun fact this was the first song the Killers wrote together and it just happened to be their magnum opus
Love everything about this video. The song, the lesson, the commitment to covering it whole, the analysis and commentary. I'm here for all of this.
Big fan! Thanks for sharing.
Paul Davids actually made a video related to this! When you were talking about how the lyrics are sung as just one single note, what makes it special is the chords coloring the lyrics, and that's really cool :) Makes it very memorable, as you said
Dude, I'm really digging your videos. You are more than a guitar teacher, you bring in so much more depth with discussing not only issues in theory but also composition and feeling. Very well done man! And I've always loved that song since it came out.
Funny thing is, this was supposed to just be the rough “reference” take of the track recorded on an 8-input console (in 2003, my college radio station had a mixing desk that could take 32 inputs and a massive ProTools suite, in 1999)!
Apparently, no matter what the band did to make it better in later recording sessions, they didn’t like the changes. So they just used the original take!
Daniel Lanois says 'you can fix a bad recording but you can't improve a bad performance.'
I just saw them live and this is such a wonderfull song! It just never gets old and is so awesome to play! Love the video man, keep it up!
Its a song about heart break which every single human being in the world can identify with. The opening guitar riff with the half step down and then the tritone conveys sadness while the synth during the post chorus implies hopefulness along with the lyrics "open up my eager eyes" nevermind the chorus and bridge guitar which sounds exactly like symphony no.9 which everyone recognizes (and i believe the reason everyone thought they were british/european when this song came out)
Stellar rendition. Apart from that I must say that I especially loved your enthusiasm. Passion and love for the artform as well as your tools (instruments) is just plainly apparent and it mirrors how I feel. I'm sure others feel the same way!
That song is known by everyone between the age of 25-40 in the UK. It was and in everywhere. Unofficial UK anthem.
When an American band makes the Brit Rock song of a generation.
@@alyssa2242 Nothing wrong with that. The UK has basically dominated the music scene since the 60's. We can allow the Yanks to have this one song.
Parklife is the unofficial UK anthem 😅
@@AidanMillward Yep, we all know that one as well! 🤣
The Johnny Marr Glastonbury version
This channel has help me grow more then anything in my guitar journey. Thank you Music is Win!
Been watching for 2 years and had no idea tyler could sing! And great job on playing and singing this song at the same time whilst doing all those cray lead parts. Loved it
That solo was awesome man, loved your creative fills that really added to the piece. Nice Job!
Love seeing you do some early 2000s stuff, I think that stuff gets overlooked a lot, Muse, Silversun Pickups, The Killers etc lots of interesting stuff from that time.
Muse especially. A lot of classical influence there
I mostly listen to 2000s rock, other bands like modest mouse, the strokes, the white stripes, arcade fire. So much great diversity in that decade for rock and you still had great hits from the major bands like foo fighters and RHCP. Overall maybe an underrated decade for rock
I'd love to see Tyler break down some Silversun for sure. I know what I'm listening to on my drive home now, thanks!
Would love to see him do a deep look into origin of symmetry
@@LP970PL agreed! Silversun has some really nice riffs
Why why why are all of your videos such a joy to watch? Love it 😊
Glad you sang it, sounds great dude. Love the energy you put into it
"It seems blue guitars are tuned to Eb."
Here's the thing: we have a blue Strat in our home (more specifically a clone, but that's neither here nor there), and it is indeed tuned to Eb. So it turns out that Tyler's little joke is more true than he might think.
The same is true for my Blue EVH Wolfgang! Maybe Tyler has a certain psychic gift...
i have a midnight blue strat and it's also tuned to e flat
where i work there's a blue squier strat tuned a half step down.. coincidence? i think not
I saw the title and immediately thought Mr. Brightside!! I’m excited to hear you talk about it! I’ve been playing guitar on and off for about 7 years and you and a few other RUclipsrs have been huge inspirations for me. I’m definitely not good at playing this song and I’m glad you made an in depth tutorial about it!!
Excellent and great song!!!! I really like it,since 2009! Greatings from Argentina...🧉👍
I got to sing this with 70,000 people at the big ten championship game. GO BLUE. We love you tyler
I’m Gen Z but I absolutely LOVE this song. In fact it’s probably my favorite song ever. I’ve only come to appreciate it more after learning the bass line. The bass CARRIES this song and I love it. I’ve been learning the lead Guitar part as well and I’m just loving it so much. I’m so glad you made a video dedicated to this song!!
Same Gen z right here too! I’ve learnt it on guitar it was really weird at first but I got the hang of it quickly
@@EffinWit I don’t think so. Everyone I knew was into this song (I’m 37).
Bunch of kids at three local HS said it was the last song of their prom… THIS YEAR. Incredible.
Well done on the Beato like breakdown. Yours is one of the best music channels. Thanks!
As a Brit (and a millenial), this is our national anthem, we don't hide the fact we all love it :).
That's interesting, since the band is from Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
You speak for a small minority
@@lawrencewoody3544 brits are known to integrate (not steal) other countries culture and traditions. 😂
As a Turk living in UK for a year and a half I can testify for this. An Irish pub, live music bar, does not matter. Everybody sings out of their lungs
@@lawrencewoody3544 That's what you think, we've claimed them now, they are honourably British ;).
(Joking aside, we know :) but they made it over here first)
This is a great vid! really enjoyed you singing and playing. Fun song fun video done well tysm.
I also think it important to note that the intro guitar riff has a sped up church bell celebration sound to it.
Like when the bride and groom bust out the front of a church.
I think we feel the momentousness which that melody creates.
Yeah, it may be. But true story behind riff is that Dave Kuening (I may mistaken his name, but I mean tge future guitarist of The Killers) played this single melody while testing his guitar in 2002 and fell on this. Story behind lyrics are known easly: one night Brandon Flowers woke up with a bad feeling. He gone to Pub in Texas called ,,Crown and Anchor" and saw his Gf cheating on him with other guy. First Verse is on single note to represent that Brandon's brain didn't have time to calculate it, and he was stuck in some kind of loop, like a lag in game. Second Verse is his anger after he realizes what just happened, and lines "swimming through sick lullabies" refers to him being asleep when it all started, also his bad feeling, and line ,,choking on your alibis" is, I think a reffering to that she wants to make hersefl an alibi like ,,He's my brother" or something like that OR Brandon just informs that he's sick of her stupid lies.
I'm 59 and difficult to believe so many people never heard it. It's a very catchy poppy tune. Not my favorite genre but has a catchy tune and beat to it. Not hard to see why it's become so popular either.
please break down more more more songs. you're insight is spot on! TY
Great lesson. Here's my question: Why is this song played at weddings? Do people listen to lyrics?
They sure don’t! 😂
It would seem Fate is not without a sense of irony...
Because it's an absolute banger that makes people lose their shit on the dance floor (metaphorically speaking... well sometimes not metaphorically speaking)
The same reason "Hey Yah!" and "Every Breath You Take" are played at weddings: They sound so good, nobody pays any attention to the meaning of the song. It's like playing "Born in the USA" at a Fourth of July festival.
@@Vivi_9 Yeah, I suppose you're ri-wait, WTF?!
Listening to that song makes me wanna practice that song
Me too!
Practicing it right now - with my Strat tuned down half step 🤣. Damn, I’m suggestible. Great video - great song, from a Gen X’r.
This is such great content! As someone who has started to create music, this is such an awesome video to have watched!
This song slaps and you did a very impressive rendition of it. Well done dude!
It’s scientifically proven anyone that uses the term “slaps” is under 18, prove me wrong 😝
King
Your content has gotten so much better recently (not that it was ever bad), keep up the good work 👍🏻
I heard or read somewhere that music with a BPM's at or more than 120 naturally bring our heart beats up and make us feel happy 😊. That's a factor too. As a boomer I have to say I've loved this song from the get go. Great job 👏.
Are you an actual baby boomer or the offspring of the baby boom ??
Really liking guitar super system. I didn’t think it was going to be as good as it is. Nice bite size lessons in a Netflix style format. I ended up getting a year subscription. Good work dude!
Guitar Super System is, indeed super.
I freakin love this song. I didn't know it was a thing lol! Thanks for breaking it down!
Great Job I enjoyed it very much!
I have small hands and it’s simply impossible for me to use that intro chord shape effectively (live, standing up). So I tune the G string a half step up relative to everything else. Have to adjust all other chord shapes after that but the song is now accessible to me and the notes themselves are still the same. Tip for others with small hands.
Awesome job! The breakdown is spot on!
Never heard it until this morning.
I must be old. This is my first time hearing this song. I like it!
The song came out in 2004
@@willbainbridgedrummer somehow the song missed me completely! Musta been busy listening to Eddie, Angus, Vai, Morse, Marino, Stevie Ray, Clapton, Page, Beck, Walsh and other guitar greats.
Yeah the killers are surprisingly great. Sam’s town, imo, is one of my favorite albums ever. It doesn’t really sound like a pop album and I’d reccomend it if you like classic rock
I'm old too and never heard it before. I thought it was sorta meh, honestly.
@@gnash58 to each their own. Nice that you gave it a shot tho
You and a few others made me buy a new guitar, I haven't played in over 20 years, but your content is just great, now I have a new guitar, not the PRS I wanted but and great second choice of an Ibanez RG470 and 1 year of Guitar super system, all I can say is my finger tips are hating you. Keep up the good work.
I'm so lucky I won a prize, too! Lol
A significant number of weddings over the last decade will be for people who were either in high school or college/university when this song came out (I was 19) so a big-singalong pop-song from that era will go down well.
Mercifully, I live in Scotland where we have our own Big Wedding Singalong Song (Runrig's Loch Lomond) and I'm very much looking forward to belting that out at a Scottish-Iranian wedding next week and showing the visitors to our country this unique aspect of Scottish culture. We had a similar moment a few years back at a Scottish-Northern-Irish wedding in England - the groom's family didn't expect this bout of impromtu singing
Bro, that cover is absolutely sick, amazing video!😎❤️
I wonder for how many videos in a row we're gonna see that blue strat. That's love right there
Interesting content!! Your approach is the best😂😂 “dont do that” 🤘
I guess I need to go buy a blue guitar so I can play 1/2 step down. I don't have an addiction, I need it
you need a guitar for each tuning! it's just music science!
You can stop whenever you want! Right? ....Right?
I'm 22 (gen z) and for some reason I've always heard this song throughout most of my life. It also made me happy that Michigan made this their anthem
I have never heard the song before. You make me feel so old.
That first strat is gorgeous! I live the tobacco burst peaking through the white & i havnt seen many semi-hollow strats
When I was a kind, I went to a Jimmy Eat World concert in Raleigh. Between the opening act and the headliner, the venue started playing Mr. Brightside and we all went insane
yeah i play this every week at weddings, banging tune! and hard to play right!
So so so true, I was recently hired to play guitar in a 30 year wedding band up in NJ tri state area, brightside is always among the last few songs of every job
I have never heard of this song / artist that plays at every wedding in the world... at least until now. I guess I'm not in the world or never been at a wedding. Good work, though! Thanks!
yea you are definitely not from this world the killers are super popular everywhere and they got many great songs
100% true, lol!
More music analysis!
I love this stuff.
Between this and Beato’s “What Makes This Song Great?” series, (and 12 Tone’s vids are okay sometimes too) you just don’t see enough of this kind of thing on RUclips…
Kudos
This video was very reminiscent of a Rick Beato "What makes this song great," and I love it. The world needs more of that.
You are so right. There are so many songs we really only know a handful of lyrics in truth. I found this out at a Chilli Peppers show a couple of weeks ago.
This is FRIKIN beautiful!!!!
Ngl you sound pretty dam good 👍 you should do more stuff like this
Love the performance man! Music is Win album coming when?
I appreciate your hard work in breaking this down and finding all the things that make it liked, but I guess I’m just too old to appreciate this song as something great.
I never heard this song till today and it is a great song.
Such a great song by a great band. But I've always thought that the drumbeat really pushes the song, and gives it so much energy.
Played Mr Bright sight in a band and I loved it. Super fun on bass.
Somehow I’ve never heard this song. It’s pretty good! Nice lesson and cover!
I must be old, I have never heard this song before! and I am only 54
I have no problem admitting to anyone how awesome this song is. 🙂
Awesome playing and singing. And a great analysis.
Reminds me of playing rock and with my cousin, thanks
Well done Sir...well done..
Can you do more skits? Love this song btw(my dad was gunna pay me to learn it, but I hate tuning down my guitar.😕 I might have to actually learn it now lol 😉
I was thinking all the small things, but this was my second thought great job.
This is basically Rick Beato, but better because it has a guitar lesson, a great great cover and an original solo! In the same runtime as a What Makes This Song Great video. Awesome!
I’ve had this song on my playlist for like a year and a half
FYI, I’m one of the students in that video of the Michigan game where the fans sing it last September- here to let you know that this is NOT just a millennial song! Every student in that clip, including myself, is GenZ! My dad (GenX) is a huge fan too. This thing is timeless!
Me and my friend have always had a theory that this is just the most popular song ever but no one knows it, and this just proves that even more lol
Rick Beato wants his content back! 😉
JK - love your stuff Tyler and I’m back on Guitar Super System so thanks for the app!!!
I love that you go vocal man!🔥
I don't leave a review in the app store as it is a place I never visit. I'll leave a review here though, this is an excellent video with good explanations about both the song itself and the guitar parts in it. 9.5 / 10 Professional video and tons of fun!
Good singing, bro! 🤘
Yesss new video
Mr blindside by The Killers of course 👏👏👏👌🔥
hi you inspired me so much to learn guitar
I would definitely watch more like this.
I never thought I’d see my kind of music on this channel 😭
nice cover i like your take on this song
Great video -- very informative. No idea what this song is ... but you did a great job explaining it. :D
that was refreshing and an eye opener. Although these days I mostly concentrate on the bass, I will have to learn the guitar part now
Consider learning the bassline too. The killers have some excellent basslines.
@@jackm1283 the bass is my secret lover but my wife can never know :)
Loving the guitar on the thumbnail 👍
Great video. The Killers are favorite of mine, they still make music with guitars and drums and don’t feel like they’re created on a computer (their newest album is particularly stripped down and raw).
Totally agree with your point about playing the song the correct/original way versus some simplified way someone else came up with. My favorite acoustic song to play is Name by Goo Goo Dolls. The correct tuning is DAEAEE, and this requires replacing the G string with a B and the B with another E. I legit bought another guitar to do this tuning just so I can play it at gigs.
God, I now feel old, I've never heard of it.
never heard this ..and glad of it
I lost it when you mentioned how all blue guitars are tuned down a half step to E flat… because coincidentally, so is mine 😂💀
Cool to hear you sing Tyler!!
