I normally wouldn't do this kind of thing

As an unwritten rule, I normally cringed when people post lyrics and stuff (mostly because I think they have nothing better to say, well I do have alot to say but I am not about to entertain the demons in my head so there) but hey I just caught this song by The Killers and its really good. The whole album, image and video comes together in a concept. Of course the new sound is really 80s hence the look. I really love the treatment they did for the video...very nice unlike the usual teeny gloss we get from US (you know those wannabe punk rock with mascara and shit, so shitty and too many I couldnt be arsed to remember their names).

But of course everyone already know the funny lyrics from Somebody Told Me (...you have a boyfriend that looked like a girlfriend...hmmm). They teamed with the wonderful Stuart Price again for a fabulous (yes, how gay) Jacque Lu Cont/Thin White Duke mix.


You sit there in your heartache
Waitin' on some beautiful boy to
To save you from your old ways
You play forgiveness
Watch it, now here he comes
He doesn't look a thing like Jesus
But he talks like a gentleman
Like you imagined
When you were young

Of late, I have been home consistently early (my definition of early is different very lar) and one of the things that I've noticed on TV was the return of shows from the past. I suppose kids/cikus these days might not know but those who are somewhat old enough in the 90s will know this - back in the day we don't even have more than 5 TV channels and there was no Internet nor iPhone or anything else. Any form of entertainment on TV - Chinese language would either came from Hong Kong (in VHS tape, TV series) or locally produced. Back then HVD was the giant production house who produced tons of Chinese and Malay TV series. Looking back, the quality aint that bad - just that I noticed guys back then like to wear vest, oversized clothing, some even have suspenders, funny glasses and floppy hair. But of course the good times (and bad fashion) has to end, HVD went kaput during 1997's recession and all the actors lost their job. Most of them either tried their luck overseas or wen...
