A video of a drunken sing-along to The Killers' classic 'Mr Brightside' at a wake in Ireland has gone - with even the band themselves responding. Check it out below.
We've all had a couple of drinks in our time and lost our minds a little bit to the sounds of Brandon Flowers and co, but nothing quite like this performance led by Brian O'Sullivan
Taking to perform atop a table at Falveys Bar in Killorglin, Kerry, O'Sullivan proves to be the ultimate master of ceremonies while honouring the late, great Ger 'Farmer' Foley at his wake last week - soon whipping his shirt off and upsetting a wall of framed photos.
"He will never be replaced, but we will remember him forever in our lives," O'Sullivan tells the bar, honouring Ger. "I've been doing this song for a few years and I haven't done it in a couple of years...I think the most appropriate song you could ever get for this man is 'Mr Brightside'."
It need gets a bit lairy, and the video has since clocked up nearly 100k views. Even The Killers themselves enjoyed it:
Brian O'Sullivan, if Brandon ever needs a fill-in, we're calling you! May we all have friends like this #farmersrule https://t.co/mENU0pGfHr

"It certainly wasn't a normal Thursday night in Falveys," eyewitness Peter Teahan told BBC, "A lot of people had been getting up to sing, one person had a guitar and did Raglan Road.
"Brian was a good friend of Ger's, and that was one of Ger's favourite songs, so he got everyone going. "Most people in the area knew Ger, he was very popular. It was a very good send-off for him."
Ger died aged 45 of cystic fibrosis.
Meanwhile, The Killers are said to be hard at work on their next album - featuring no less than Elton John.
