Coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all
It started out with a kiss
How did it end up like this?
(It was only a kiss), it was only a kiss
Now I'm falling asleep
And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag
Now they're going to bed
And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head
But she's touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
'Cause I just can't look, it's killing me
And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibi
But it's just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I never

@party poison awsten said I'd lie and wait forever
If I died we'd be together
I can't always just forget her
But she could try
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I
Should I
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever ever
Ever
Get the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
She dies
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home

And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me

Already about 7 years ago I was best friends with a girl who was the love of my life. She was everything I ever dreamed of when I was a child: Smart, caring, funny and breathtakingly beautiful which made it even more perfect. We talked every day whether it was in real life or on Facebook. I didn't dare to tell her my true intense feelings and she was together with a guy from our friend group that was really a dumb poser. I never understood what she saw in an idiot like that.

When they broke up, I decided to tell her my obsessive love for her in a love letter and since that day, things were never the same again. She didn't love me and our friendship broke down. Through the time we were friends this song hit me very hard and once it came on in shuffle, I even fainted.
Nowadays when I occasionally walk into her in public, she looks the other way within 0,5 second when she sees me. Nothing hurts more in life than that. And when I see her from very far already, I start shivering and almost cry. Years later now, no single day goes by without missing her in my life and I told myself to never fall in love again and I'm sure it will never happen again.

Coincidental fact: She's from the same country as the actress in this video...

I'll never forget how unrequited love can break your heart forever.

Sincerely,
Severus Snape

I played this randomly in the car with my grandma and grandpa in the car. My grandma started mumbling the words and kind of singing it. She’s really sick and can’t talk well. She can’t walk well, falls and can’t get herself back up, and sees hallucinations. If she ever leaves me, this song or maybe another one with remind me of her. I need this song.

Funny, listening to this song today feels so bittersweet. I was with a girl for 5 years and she was my only true love, almost knowing her for 10 years now. We broke up 'cause it wasn't working for the last 1-2 months. Well she almost instantly found someone new to share her bed with.

Now, 6 months later, I lay her in my bed listening to that song while missing her so much, it fucking hurts. God bless y'all, have a good night.

For 6 months Brandon Flowers said all over the world before playing this sincere masterpiece as last song of the night: 'Listen. I know life can be tough. Sometimes that's the way it goes. But you've gotta remember... Sometimes, it goes the other way too.' I'll always remember that and I truly hope YOU will do the same.

@Adam Van Meter it means something more though. For example:

Breakups are bad, it shouldn’t happen. When that sh!t does in fact happen though, the victims are dying (inside). They are mentally hurt. This song is talking about that very thing. So when he said “if the song wasn’t playing at his funeral”, he meant it wasn’t real. As in it wasn’t sad enough... It wasn’t said enough. Then he said “I’m not dying” as in he was refusing to die if it went unmentioned. If the song wasn’t playing. Your dying inside when that stuff happens, so at your Funeral your not dying if it’s not mentioned. Or something along those lines... Idk man lol

Just to clarify for people who don't understand the song, it's about a guy who found his girlfriend cheating on him. He had suspicion/paranoia and didn't believe her alibis. He only saw them kiss but obviously knew what happened next when they went to bed. He sees the events of what happened as a price of what he had to pay in order to achieve his ambition/destiny, CUZ HE'S MR. BRIGHTSIDE. This is why he walked away from the girl in the music video.

I never saw the music video until today. Honestly? I always thought he was singing about falling for a hooker.

Did someone ask for clarification by a 3rd party instead of the band? I must have missed that.... Art is in the eye, or ear, of the beholder and the beauty of it is interpretation that fits the time of your life you heard the song. Who cares what the band or you think it intends. Most artists will even say the message is subject to interpretation. And we don't need one when the lyrics can be read and understood by anyone of average intelligence. "I hate Youtube recommendations"? "I hate youtube comments by those who point out the obvious" :-)

Several students at our school helped to organize our high school prom, but covid restrictions prevented the school itself from hosting it. We held it at the local gym, and multiple people contributed, I lent my microphone for the announcer. As one of the last songs, me and a friend recommended this to be played. Everyone was going ballistic, jumping up and down, having a wonderful time. After a long year of restrictioms, and drudging on, I will always remember this song as the highlight of our school year.

This song is perfection. Back when we were allowed to travel, in 2019, I went on Contiki around Britain and I remember there was a pub my tour went to one night. There was an upstairs pool room, with a juke box, and bar. Upstairs, we were drinking, playing pool, darts, and just having a great time. Mr Brightside came on the juke box, and the whole room, filled with twenty-something year olds (tourists and locals) stopped what they were doing for three minutes and forty seven seconds and sung this masterpiece at the top of their lungs. The atmosphere was magnetic. We all sung this song, screaming with newly made friends singing side by side with local strangers. It was the best night of my life. It is amazing that one song brought a whole room together.

Mr Brightside isn't about someone cheating on you. It's about the insecurity and jealousy that can rise up and ruin a relationship, breaking down the trust. Think about it: "and it's all in my head".

And in the chorus we have "turning saints into the sea". Women suspected of witchcraft were often thrown into water, and if they drowned were they innocent, if they survived they were a witch, and were to be killed anyway. The exact same thing's going on here, metaphorically. Even if the partner was completely innocent - a "saint", so to speak, the relationship is still being destroyed by the jealousy and insecurity.

"But it's just the price I pay" - of course, a ruined relationship is going to be the price you pay for letting your unfounded jealousy be "taking control". Really, Brandon's encouraging people in the same situation to "open up [their] eager eyes" - to see what's actually going on, to face everything instead of burying your head in the sand.

It's almost bordering on possessiveness though - "gotta gotta be down because I want it all" - there's a controlling side to (him) that wants to monitor (her), and because he can't, he starts inventing scenarios of her cheating on him to justify the resentment he's starting to feel because he doesn't OWN her. There's an insidious side to this relationship, so maybe that's what's meant by him "coming out of [his] cage" - he had this metaphorical cage imposed on him for a reason. Maybe there was a past relationship he ruined in a similar way, and he's tried to repress himself so the same doesn't happen, but he finds himself acting the same as before, and feels this is what he will always be - "destiny is calling me". And yet this optimism and hope that he can shake this insecurity off makes him believe he is "Mr Brightside", even though he knows "I never" can change.

Maybe I will take off one day and go check it out! I know he makes a lot of Utahns proud. He has a strong character. Didn't let fame turn him conceited.

This must be the most British song Americans have ever made.

sum moner

@Carmen G Ogeidnas Fun fact. Most scientists think that Americans actually have the original British accent. So Americans most likely have the true original English accent. The current British accent has changed A LOT since the early days, so really their current accent is the hick accent.

Re Lied

@Danger 2007 yeah I'm asking why people are even mentioning britts. Did I miss something???

@Popdop007 Prince is actually probably the greatest guitarists never ever mentioned as such.

Andrew Stockwell

Back in the late 2000s/early 2010s Michigan had a film tax credit, so a handful of movies were filmed here like 30 Minutes or Less (Jesse EIsenberg and Aziz Ansari) and Whip It (Ellen Page).

Some less notable Michigan films include the movie Steam starring Eric Roberts. It's really bad. The police interrogation scenes were filmed at my coworker Nancy's desk (made to look like a police building). Keep in mind the actual police station for Grand Rapids is like a quarter of a mile away from my office, so the fact that the director made a fake police office is baffling.

@Lama Su For me it's been years ago now and she will always be the love of my life and the only person I ever really loved. She chose for a guy that was in our friend group who's a complete douchebag and liar.

She was everything I dreamed of when I was a child: Smart, funny, talkative, good taste in music and sports and impossibly breathtaking beautiful. She always took the time to talk with me daily and remembered every single thing I ever told her. Too bad. Life can be very harsh.

I'll never forget how unrequited love can break your heart forever.

Sincerely,
Severus Snape

I had a best friend that I've known for a year. We both had feelings for each other but never made a move on each other. He ended up finding someone else and has been dating them for months, even lost his virginity to them. While he was happy with someone, I was always just alone.

I now constantly regret not making the move and always just "what if that was us instead?", and I hate myself for having these thoughts. Hearing/thinking of this song just reminds me of it even more, and it's painful.
