The Killers Do Romeo and Juliet
We could hardly love something more, and we say that as big fans of both the Dire Straits original and the Indigo Girls cover. Man, the Killers are just so great.

This is like the best day of bunnyshop ever. First adorable sparkly dresses, and now a cover of one of my favorite songs! :)

i still love the original more (especially live), but it's great to hear the killers sound so different!
thanks for the video!

Great song and great cover of it, but what is UP with the horrible facial hair these guys are sporting? I'm seeing too many guys on the street with this kind of nonsense and it's killing my libido......

THANK GOD someone else knows about this song! I discovered it last year, and since then it has been my favorite song. The lyrics just hit me so hard, and The Killers are my favorite band anyway. It just has such special meaning to me, and I like the slow tempo and guitar that they added to the adaptation.
Happy Holidays

Love this song!! reminds me of Empire Records, neone else LOVELOVELOVE that movie, but I totally agree with the facial hair comment. yuck.

Yeah what is up with the facial hair? It looks like this was done with Jason Lee from My Name Is Earl as the drummer. And the guitar part isn't really new, it's just a different kind of guitar they're doing it on.
