It Was Only a Kiss! The Story of The Killers' 'Mr. Brightside'

There’s quite simply nothing more fascinating in pop music than
the ‘sleeper hit’. I can only imagine how a band or artist feels
when they introduce themselves to the world to little to no
fanfare… then have to swallow their pride, keep on plugging away
- and then suddenly blow up almost retroactively. 


The rollercoaster ride of ups and downs that surrounded the
release of their breakthrough hit 'Mr Brightside' is an example
of Rock Music's greatest sleeper hits in 2003… or is it 2004?
2005? It's not that simple.


This is the true story of The Killers' Mr. Brightside, with newly
unearthed audio from the band themselves, and Rob Stevenson - the
man who 'discovered' the band.
