I'm sure @GeneralEmployer will ferret out the exact last date I posted this, but re-upping anyway because it's a favorite 80s song memory and a very competent and respectful cover.

Ultragrrrl told me she gave the Killers their big break and then got the shaft. Said she even helped 'em write "Mr. Brightside." Hazy after that. But a lucid Pete Doherty told me the Killers told him they ripped off 'Up the Bracket" or something. I believed, and still believe, both these stories. Killers have an impeccable killer instinct, which should translate into great music, but somehow doesn't. I TRY and TRY and TRY to forget the Killers. I know where that song is, but we have no need of a yet another resurrection on this day of all days.

Holy S. I remember now. Ultragrrrl was a massive Libertines fan. What if she gave the Killers this suggestion? What if THAT was her help. MASSIVE breakthru decades later that surely MAYBE only @Omega Male cld. appreciate.
