This 'Mr Brightside' & The 1975 Mash Up Will Make You Come Outta Your Cage
"Coming outta my cage and all we seem to do is talk about sex..."
Is there a better song in existence than 'Mr Brightside' by The Killers? That tune works in every single situation, whether it's the end of a wedding reception, a drunken night at karaoke or the hat-throwing bit of a graduation ceremony.

There's no way you could make it sound even better unless you, I dunno, mashed it up with The 1975 or something...What's that? Somebody did exactly that?
Well, we better have a listen then!
Iconic.
The track comes courtesy of YouTube user Inanimate Mashups who previously posted a similarly themed Years & Years/The 1975 double-header that was equally banging.
In fact, the tracks are actually taken from a whole album of The 1975 mashups entitled The 1975 Versus... featuring Matty's vocals expertly edited over tracks by Twenty One Pilots, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Rihanna, Lorde and many more.
