Even though it was written by four blokes from Las Vegas, Mr. Brightside is a British institution. It's the soundtrack to every indie club night and house party you've ever been to but also inoffensive enough for your mum and dad (especially your dad) to enjoy too. If there was a public vote to name a new national anthem, Mr. Brightside would probably win it.

Earlier this year, the Official Charts Company revealed that the British public's undying love for Mr. Brightside has led to it spending an incredible 200 weeks in the official top 100. Its popularity shows no signs of waning either, with an average of over 800,000 steams and 600 digital downloads every single week.
