Obsessions

Now they all know

So my obsession with The Killers is completely noticed by everybody. Is it because their name has been in my MSN name for three months? (With stars on each side) Or maybe it's because I start squealing or gasping whenever somebody says, "Brightside, Killers, Flowers" and etc?
My parents were the first to know and they've had to be there with me for the long discussions of how The Killers are doing on the charts, which awards they've won and the next time 'Mr. Brightside' will make a graceful appearance on the telly.
They've already groaned and moaned about hearing their songs over and over but it really hurt when I was watching the MuchMusic countdown and The Killers were number one and I was all giddy and I could hear them talking bitterly in the background about how much they can't stand this song because it's been drilled into their heads a million times. (Those weren't their exact words, but that's pretty much what happened).
I didn't mean to annoy them but I can't help it they're always around when a Killers moment is it all it's glory. My mother has figured out that I get happy when The Killers are 'On Top' and start to frown when I know 'Everything will be alright'. No puns intended ;) She thinks it's quite dumb and I think it's dumb she wants to listen to music with no words, a.k.a smooth jazz O_o
I asked her, "Isn't it boring?" and she assures me, "It's relaxing." I hope when I get older I won't listen to her type of music. If and when I have kids they probably won't like The Killers as much as I do... example: I don't like The Beatles as much as my father does. They'll probably get torn between listening to 'cool' music and listening to music that makes them happy or suits them better. But I feel old just thinking about my future so I'm stopping this post now.
