Definitely my 2nd favorite after "WYWY" but I probably like my 7th favorite song off of 'Hot Fuss' more than my 2nd favorite off of 'Sam's Town.'
And his vocals really bother me on this one for some reason. The 'breaking out of this two star town' line for me is like nails on a chalkboard. But I still like the song as a whole.

Yeah, everything I've heard from this album (as well as "A Great Big Sled") is horribly oversung. Brandon just doesn't have the chops for these types of vocal aerobics. But this song is good enough that I can overlook the annoying vocals.

I think this was the only other song I heard from the album that I liked.

This is really slowing down just as it begins to close in on the Top 10.

I like the video a lot. It's got great cinematography and the Tokyo city shots are really nice. It's really colorful and it's interesting to watch, but I could have done without that green costume thing brushing its teeth.

I don't like the video at all, and it definitely had potential. There are just some parts where you can tell they're trying to be bizarre and funny, and I think it's enough that so many of the songs are so over the top on this album. It makes me unable to take them seriously which is kind of sad because they're a solid band.

I hated that. Granted it's better than the "Bones" video, but so is watching grass grow.

Yeah, I don't like this.
What's with all the disappointing videos lately?
Other than Guster's new video, I haven't liked a new video in months. (well, maybe Gwen's new video, but I'm kinda mixed on that)

Not impressed by this video, or any of their videos for that matter. They try too hard.

The "Like Rebel Diamonds" Mix is really cool. Stripped down.

This should have been a Top 3. They don't have more radio friendly singles on the album. By the way, this is Top 5 Airplay in the UK!

Thsi was looking healthy but now it's down to #13 with no bullet. Oh well- sucks for them.

It seems like nowadays, pretty much everything slows down when it gets to around #12 or #13. So we'll see what happens.

I honestly hope they don't have another big hit from this album. "When You Were Young" deserved to be a hit, but this album is a disaster.

I do kind of like this. However, I'll probably get bored of it very quickly.
