Find out more on the support acts and ticket details HERE.
The Killers are back and they’ve got new material to share. The sixth and final headliner for British Summer Time Hyde Park 2017, The Killers will take to the foliage-covered stage for a UK festival exclusive performance on Saturday 8th July.
The Las Vegas four-piece have confirmed that new music from their upcoming – and still untitled – fifth album will be played at Hyde Park alongside old classics, such as ‘All These Things That I’ve Done’, ‘Mr Brightside’ and ‘Human’.
Supporting the band will be Guy Garvey’s Elbow (new album coming February 3), the live return of pop mega stars Tears for Fears (their first London show in 12 years), and White Lies (interview with them – including a story about getting stranded in arctic conditions, surrounded by gun-toting men - coming later today).
Headlining BST Hyde Park 2017's other dates will be Phil Collins (30th June), Green Day (1st July), Justin Bieber (2nd July), Kings Of Leon (6th July) and Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers (9th July).
WATCH 'RUNAWAYS' BY THE KILLERS BELOW:
A blue-eyed girl playin' in the sand
I'd been on her trail for a little while
But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand
A teenage rush
She said, "Ain't we all just runaways? We got time"
But that ain't much
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
You gotta know that this is real, baby, why you wanna fight it?
It's the one thing you can choose, oh!
We got engaged on a Friday night
I swore on the head of our unborn child
That I could take care of the three of us
But I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild
It's in my blood
She said she might just runaway somewhere else
Someplace good
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
You gotta know that this is real, baby, why you wanna fight it?
It's the one thing you can choose
Let's take a chance baby, we can't lose
Ain't we all just runaways?
I knew it when I met you,
I'm not gonna let you runaway
I knew it when I held you,
I wasn't lettin' go!
We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams
Hold each other 'til the morning light
We used to laugh, now we only fight
Baby are you lonesome now?
At night I come home after they go to sleep
Like a stumbling a ghost, I haunt these halls
There's a picture of us on our wedding day
I recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls
We can't wait 'til tomorrow
Oh we're caught up in the appeal baby, why you wanna hide it?
It's the last thing on my mind
(Why you wanna hide it?)
I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive
Ain't we all just runaways?
I knew it when I met you,
I'm not gonna let you runaway
I knew it when I held you,
I wasn't lettin' go!
Oh! oh! oh! oh! oh!
Ain't we all just runaways?
Yeah, runaways
Ain't we all just runaways?
Yeah
