Melding your personal opinions of the band with their actual recognition seems like a bad idea. The first song they release as a band is really popular........so yes, they are one hit wonders........and that's a pretty good thing to say when you've released one song.
Their next one is pretty good too........They really have an 80's feel to them with the synthesizers, but with a lot of energy........its not half bad...
not half bad eh? so I guess that means they're not half good either?
you know, Lou Bega had another single after mombo #5... anyone can release more than one single, doesn't mean they aren't one hit wonders. These guys rank right up there with the Ataris', American Hi-Fi's, and Marcy Playground's of the music industry.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
"It's a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself. Makes you wonder what else you can do that you've forgotten about"
Rank them with whoever you want.......I really don't care.....they aren't my favourite band by any means but they are making a name for themselves like it or not. Whether they stick around is a matter of time.......no use trying to tell me otherwise.

Like I said... go to a Metallica concert then say that. I was probably one of the youngest people there... and least enthusiastic.

I think the Killers have had 4 singles out now. Maybe 3. Still, more than 1.
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
