Kind of makes up for my glumness over recent events.

Ditto.

I lurve it. Was expecting the "oh oh" part at the end, it sounds kind of odd to end at "...and your imaginary friends" lol, but I'll get used to it.

AAH! I was asking myself 'how does the song finish on the youtube video?!' You're right, I miss the "oh oh" at the end... anyway, I think what they did is just wonderful  ;D

just to remind you, the original video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyUSs7WKRvw

I love love it, its powerful and the introduction is nice, as opposed to the other songs of that session that started and ended abruptly. Bam, bam, bam, right out of the gate, I prefer songs with a climax, and The Kill has one.

Having said that I'm sad to hear how edited it is, I know it has many versions, but some of my favorite lines are gone.
"...an alcoholic" at the end of the first verse really set the feel and made it more confessional, rather than "...an accidental" which seems to pack less of a punch.

This one made me wonder if it was edited out of something like political correctness, altho I don't think Amanda gives a fuck about being P.C. but still the line "I am...a terrorist" which I thought was so poignant and striking and I was surprised it was gone. Lastly, I miss the ending, I was really attached and looked forward to the swaying "ahhhhh's" with just the vocal to end it.

What thinks you?

YESSSSSSS.

YESYESYESYES!

The Kill has made me so inexplicably happy.

I hope it goes on iTunes soon so I can stop having the myspace page open all the time.

my friend sent me the one he ripped from the myspace page...but if you want the full effect of the song, don't download it. The quality isn't as good. It's good, but not like the one you hear on the MySpace player.

If you download it from Myspace the right way, you get an exact replica of the file they have on their servers, so the sound quality is exactly the same. If it's not, you're doing it wrong

Damn Myspace!! I can only get through the first like 20 seconds, and it's so choppy. Does this only happen to me? Is my computer alergic to Myspace?
