Brandon Flowers solo album, "Flamingo"

[bono_212]

I'll try and find something better later, but here it is obviously ripped from the vinyl. Not what I was expecting, but I like it:

YouTube - Brandon Flowers - On The Floor (With Lyrics)

Edit: Also apparently this is not the finished version that will be on Flamingo.

Thanks for posting!
I'm on my first listen now.

Edit : WOW, that's totally different from Crossfire.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

i'm getting into crossfire, but i liked this bside version of 'on the floor' a LOT more than crossfire

Just found out that a remix of the song "Only The Young" was leaked by a DJ (Jesse Marco) before the weekend.

Sound familiar?

YouTube - The Killers' Brandon Flowers Announces Solo Album 'FLAMINGO'

It has been said that this instrumental might be "Only the young"

So that ^ turns out to be right, I guess.

There might be a 2nd remix floating around by another DJ (DJ Lynnwood).

Is it September yet?

Remix or not, that sounds fantastic.

Is this album not available on iTunes? I haven't liked any of the leaked songs yet, but I suppose I should at least listen to the preview clips.

I haven't checked yet, but I think it was only a week or two before Day and Age was released that we got those :30 clips, so I'm assuming they're at least a week or two away.

^ Got taken down.

If you've seen the setlist and the amount of songs on it, then you can probably calculate how long the show is going to be.

I'm sorry I can't share any pictures. We were told 'No photography per artist's request' by the venue personnel. They were on you like hawks if you tried. I ended up second row center behind a short girl/woman and there was just no way I could sneak one during the show. Turns out there might have been some miscommunication between the venue and Brandon's people. As the later have come forward saying they told the venue that cameras were allowed.

Anyway, I thought the show was fantastic! Brandon absolutely sang his heart out and gave it his all. I liked all the songs and thought the band/musicians that backed him were good too. I've heard others say it felt kinda weird to see him without Dave, Ronnie and Mark on stage with him. But I didn't have any problem with it at all. I definitely felt lucky and privileged to be there and see him in such a small venue at a warm-up show. The crowd was very into it and kept on screaming. Brandon couldn't stop smiling about that. I imagine that for the first (and second) show he must have been pretty nervous hitting the stage solo, but he (already) seemed pretty relaxed on Thursday.

I'd go see the show again in a heartbeat.

I should at least listen to the preview clips.

30 second clips of all the songs (including the bonus tracks)

 

[discothequeLP]

so...anyone in australia pick this up yet?

 

[Canadiens1131]

Crossfire was a horrible single.

Going to give the rest of the album a shot, but my expectations are not high at all.

The Only the Young Remix is promising, though. Reminds me of Ultravox.

 

[UberBeaver]

So Brandon Flowers has an album called Flamingo with a song called Swallow It with a video from "Fabulous" Las Vegas. Am I up to speed?

Tracks also include On The Floor, and Hard Enough.

So Flamingo's pulling a Day and Age and not leaking even when its officially released then? (I'm assuming from disco's post above that it came out in Aussie-land today?)

Brandon Flowers sucks.
