On the tv performances he's kinda nervous...but when he's doin' live performances at the show...oh my god!he's amazing!I almost cried! Wanna see more Killers concerts in the future!
I think this song is about getting into a (abusive) relationship “Neon tiger” meaning that your partner will show you off to their friends and family. Because neon tigers are shown off in Las Vegas “They promised just to pet you,but don’t let them get you” I think “getting” you means sharing all your secrets and being completely open with your partner “Under the heat of the south west sun” I’m not too sure about this one. I think the “heat” is the feeling of love “Took to the spotlight like a diamond ring” I mean,come on “Strategise to maim you,but don’t let them tame you” I think “maiming” means your partner saying and doing things to degrade you. And “taming” means setting aside your ambitions and dreams and basically just letting your partner make all your decisions for you. “I don’t wanna be kept,I don’t wanna be caged,I don’t wanna be damned oh hell,I don’t wanna be broke,I don’t wanna be saved,I don’t wanna be SOL” I think this is about wanting to escape the relationship,but at the same time being too scared to leave the relationship “Run neon tiger there’s a price on your head” I think this is breaking up and having to avoid your ex’s friends and family otherwise they’ll “put you down and cut you” “Oh I’m going to need a neon tiger roar” I think this is about regaining your identity after you break up with your partner
I’ve been thinking more about it and I think “under the heat of the south west sun” means your partner constantly watching over you. I’m sure we all had it when where we’ve gone out without telling our partner and they’ve sent us 100s of texts asking where we are
this band from las vegas are absolutely incredible they remind me so much of queen they dont know how to write or sing a bad song im 42 me and my partner never gave them that much attention until human our local pub every friday adores them they are incredible flowerz amazing on vocals dustland fairytale my favourite
wow. brandon flowers is just amazing. his voice is incredible in this performance! and i don't think the look in his eye is fear, i think he just gets really into the songs he sings and this one is really deep and seems really personal. he gives the performance meaning. it wouldn't work if he were calm or smiling or whatever.

BRANDON IS NEVER NERVOUS ON STAGE! HE IS THE ONE OF THE ONLY VERY VERY VERY VERY FEW SINGERS WHO SOUNDS THE SAME LIVE AS HE DOES ON HIS RECORDS. I LOVE THIS MAN!
LOVE IT! It hard to find a band that still actually sings live and is GOOD at signing live :D And brandon's dance moves made me giggle, especially when he was bouncing up and down
i love this song i fell in love with when he says ill never let them touch you. it makes me feel special cuz hes saying that it just sounds sooo cute :)
I don´t see singers putting this heart often when they sing live. I really like this band, and the singer deserves an award for this interpretation. Good band. Good Music.
puta que paril, faz quase 10 anos desse álbum, nem parece tanto tempo assim, mas que música foda, acho que a melhor desse álbum perfeito q só tem músicas boas, mas essa aqui é espetacular
100% agree with you. versatility is what many bands dont have, which make the band so incredibly talented to take risk with the sound. the fans are diverse and the music touches many when they dont fit into one genre.
We went to a concert 29th of may and they do have some additional musicians. This was actually pretty funny because one was really at the back of the stage behind a palm tree..haha Amazing song btw...to bad they didnt play it..

I can't believe I would skip this on the album. It's a great song!
Kim Ce yes it is what a song and the lyrics.........
brandon flowers's voice is one of the best male singing voices ever
Brandon nails the vocals here. So impressive to do this song live. He has absolutely mastered his voice.
Mister Flowers, for some reason, always looks like he is either on edge or nervous...
Until he smiles :D
Love your comment enormously
box folder cus he is that neon tiger
On the tv performances he's kinda nervous...but when he's doin' live performances at the show...oh my god!he's amazing!I almost cried! Wanna see more Killers concerts in the future!
Flowers is fucking adorable
Damn, Brandon was shaking, I guess that "sometimes when I talk a shake a little" (This River Is Wild) is true. Anyways, what an amazing performance.
Favorite Day & Age song and the way Brandon Flowers sing it here live was so mesmerizing and I could really feel the emotions through.
NO-ONE EVER TOLD ME THE KILLERS PERFORMED 'NEON TIGER' LIVE!!!
My life is now complete.
This song is so amazing! I love The Killers!

It isnt that he's nervous, he's about to cry because of how much this song means to him.
They'll hunt you down and cut you, I'll never let them touch you. I -love- that lyric.
wonderfu lyrics... i love it
Brandon es un grandisimo letrista
Just imagine people's reaction, in a full stadium, when he shouts "Everyone makes some noise" ! How not to cry ?
Their best album
I can't contain the tears, the lyrics are so tender
Fuck this live version is awesome..!!!!!!Listen to it everyday..

great composers and great performers
LOVE IT! It hard to find a band that still actually sings live and is GOOD at signing live :D
And brandon's dance moves made me giggle, especially when he was bouncing up and down
Come on girls and boys, everyone make some noise!
Just another example of how The Killers are the perfect band. *_*
my fave killers track :)
HE IS PERFECT!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥

Fucking amazing song, amazing lyrics and should be an amazing My fav band of all time.
Long live the killers.
Cancionsotaaa!!! Grande The Killers!!!

Brandon is so gorgeous! He was AMAZING at Lollapalooza 2009!!
2:03-2:10 wow, that was amazing! Brandon's voice is really powerful. :)
he isn't, he is only nervous in interviews, when he gets on stage he is a completley different character.
i love this song i fell in love with when he says ill never let them touch you. it makes me feel special cuz hes saying that it just sounds sooo cute :)
This is a metaphor for a bohemian. I think at least. Like a true artist being given advice to stay true.
I thought that it was about Siegfried & Roy's co-stars.
Always thought about prostitution in Vegas, dont know why
Love this band and this song!
♪♫ under the neon ♫♪
♪♫ under the neon ♫♪

Johann Roland this is very late but it's under the heat of not under the neon
Truly amazing song, truly amazing band.
Killers are keeping music an art.
Amazing.
I just love how they perform this song... very emotional .... I always thought they were going to do a video for it, too, because it's really good...
loving every second of it :) superb
I just found this video too! Can't describe how happy I felt! :)
I love this song!!!

I watched this and fell in love with this song.
I love the Killers
I think it will be their best song on the new album, it's so fun and a good story...plus his vocals are really good.
I love the fact robin pecknold is just there, standing and watching the killers play
GREAT GREAT SONG!!!!
superb performance. you can tell that this is his fav song
I don´t see singers putting this heart often when they sing live.
I really like this band, and the singer deserves an award for this interpretation.
Good band. Good Music.
This performance was so good I had to clean my ears after hearing it.
I would always replay this song when I recorded it on tv, haha.
puta que paril, faz quase 10 anos desse álbum, nem parece tanto tempo assim, mas que música foda, acho que a melhor desse álbum perfeito q só tem músicas boas, mas essa aqui é espetacular
amazing!!!
Great song! ;)
I saw them last may and they also didnt play it in the Netherlands...I was also very disappointed!! One of my fav songs!
all of the killers' albums have been pretty damn flawless
this and dustland fairytale are my favourites off day and age
long live the killers!
the killers and fleet foxes? what a night
you are sooooo sooo right
totally vibing you dudeeeeee
This is one of their better songs I think
100% agree with you. versatility is what many bands dont have, which make the band so incredibly talented to take risk with the sound. the fans are diverse and the music touches many when they dont fit into one genre.
this song is groovy. im so ready for this record to leak/come out.
Fav song by them along with mr brightside
We went to a concert 29th of may and they do have some additional musicians. This was actually pretty funny because one was really at the back of the stage behind a palm tree..haha
