  • Summary

  • Welcome back to our mini-series of Dad Rock Time, where we unlock our dad rock vaults and celebrate the songs that define the soundtrack of our lives.

    This week, The Fist is cracking open his vault to share what we’re calling the ultimate modern dad rock song: "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers.

    Released in 2003, this indie rock anthem has not only stood the test of time but also claimed its spot as a generational sing-along classic. With its driving beat, unforgettable guitar hook, and Brandon Flowers’ iconic delivery, "Mr. Brightside" checks all the boxes of Dad Rock greatness: it's at least 15 years old, and it comes from a band that’s been keeping the spirit of rock alive for over two decades.

    Join Hammer and me as we break down why this song still gets the crowd going, whether it's in a pub, at a wedding, or blaring from the car stereo on the way to soccer practice. Let’s dive into the brilliance of "Mr. Brightside"!
