Brandon Flowers Saved From His Own Metaphors By Ninja-Ass-Kicking Charlize Theron

I genuinely like all of one Killers song (track 7 on Hot Fuss, Google it), but someone’s gotta do this dirty job: Head Killer Brandon Flowers has released his debut solo single, entitled Crossfire. If you’d like, you can watch the video, featuring Charlize Theron:
This one’s deep. I mean, I only watched it once, but I think the whole thing is a whole bunch of metaphors. And in this case, “crossfire” basically means vagina. See, the ninjas are the groupies that Brandon Flowers started a band to get to (the band being the mission, of course). The torture is the drama that comes from putting your penis into things. Charlize Theron is the one non-slutty slutbag that gives a shit about Brandon’s ass, and she comes to save him when he’s over his head in the deep end of the skank pool. And she forgives his bloody, battered and wrecked remnants not because he’s handsome and famous, but because he’s an artist.
Or whatever.

















Both Bruce Hornsby AND Bruce Springsteen already exist. Someone should tell him before this goes any further.
I think the ninja’s are all Interpol fans trying to get him to admit he stole their sound.
Every lyrics in this song is a cliche.
What a piece of garbage. A for visual effort, but otherwise it’s kind of empty.
PIECE OF CRAP.
HA he rides in the middle like a country bitch
you’re so jealous
just kidding
but seriously
you are
Reminds me of two things:
1.) I have no clue what people see in The Killers
2.) Charlize Theron is fucking hot
Is this dude trying to portray what a little bitch he is by being caught with a queer look on his face while a chick kicks ass and saves him from second rate ninjas?
this just begs so many questions, but I do think that I know what this mean. The ninjas are the good songs he used to be able to write for the first album (lets be honest, its quite a good pop album) but Charlize Theron is the record company (cause its always fun to throw label politics into serious analysis such as this) saving him from good ideas and ensuring drivel like this song is released.
And the end proves that no matter how pathetic his musical exploits become, there’s always gonna be some idiot to throw up the cash to make a third rate video.
Its all so simple!
This song makes me want to go a suck a cock.
