Success wasn’t the Brightside of The Killers when they first came out with their single in 2003, upon it’s re-release in 2004 though, the song not only skyrocketed the band into their success; its persistence remains with no end in sight of dropping off the Top-100 Singles List.

Whilst most any other artist would get sick of playing their Hit-Single repeatedly, The Killers have refused to shy away from the success of Mr. Brightside — understanding and appreciating the response the song received, the consistency with which the song is featured in every Set-List since its release hasn’t diminished the band’s enthusiasm for playing it for their live audience, with the same attitude that brought them critical acclaim back in 2004.

As Rock Bands seem to be dropping off the charts and the Industry being dominated by more main-stream music, The Killers hold their own league in proclaiming the title as one of The most Successful Bands of the 21st Century.
