Mr. Brightside

The Killers nailed this song and it fast became a Retta Stone favorite.

A funny story about this song: After performing one night, a fan came up to tell me how much they enjoyed the song, but didn’t understand what singing Viagra at the end had to do with the lyrics. Of course, I looked kind of confused as I explained that I do not sing Viagra at all in the song, to which they replied, “you know at the end when you repeat it as the song fades out.”

This resulted in me laughing so hard, because what I’m actually saying is “I Never”, although I had trouble getting that out between chuckles. They began to laugh as well, and it was one of those “try to stop laughing, but couldn’t” moments! We both decided after regaining our composure, that maybe the music was too loud, or perhaps the beltone needed turning up :)

Whichever the case, it makes me think of that story whenever I hear the song.
