The Killers He has dozens of songs written, but for Brandon Flowers There is one that stands out above the others. According to Far Out Magazine, in 2017 the musician from Nevada underwent a question and answer session in which he reflected on his career as an artist and let us know what his favorite song of all time is.
“My favorite track, and the one I’m not ashamed of, is ‘Read My Mind’“, revealed. “It doesn’t matter if we are in a bar, in an arena, in a stadium, at a festival or in front of 50 people, when that song starts, the atmosphere changes.“.
“I guess it’s strange to have favoritism for something that you participated in creating, but I guess I’m grateful for that song,” added the vocalist of the Las Vegas group about the track that was part of Sam’s Townthe band’s second album.
The best they wrote
Flowers also expressed his preference for the aforementioned track during an interview with Rolling Stone: “It’s the best song I’ve ever written“. Interestingly, “Read My Mind” initially sounded nothing like the final version of it, but the producer Alan Moulder He was ruthlessly frank with Flowers and told him that his lyrics were not up to par with what he wanted to achieve.
“I heard Alan say, ‘We’re trying to turn ‘Peggy Sue’ into ‘With Or Without You,’ which was a blow because he was basically saying my lyrics weren’t good enough. So I started singing different melodies and within two hours it was a completely new song. I think it’s the best one we wrote“, he claimed.
