good review, IMO i think this album is alright but a definite low for the killers, they just got too big way too fast, this album was way too poppy and radio-friendly for my taste to be considered a great album but i think the killers can def do better, theyre on hiatus now, so hopefully (and my belief is they will) learn from this mistake of an album and come out with a great album when they reform.

Checking this out right now. It isn't as bad as everyone claims it is... Probably will be a 3.5-4 for me. Not as great as Sam's Town, at least yet, but who knows. I'm approaching this biotch with an open mind.

this'd be like a 3.5 for me if it didn't have Human, worst song they could ever make.

well, that's an interesting question. firstly is the basic proposition - perhaps brandon is asking us to consider the possibility that they are two entirely different entities - human and dancer as mutually exclusive beings. this, if true, then raises the further question of which category he would fall into - now given the idealistic content and tone, my instincts swing toward 'dancer', but then he cleverly subverts my expectations by mentioning in the line before 'and i'm on my knees' - to me this clearly disqualifies him from the dancing category as there are a strictly limited number of moves that can be performed in this position.



On the other hand, he may (auteur and poet that he is) be cleverly using something known as a 'metaphor'. now, when i first considered this it went way over my head, which is natural when listening to such intellectually probing music, but it began to make more sense as i engaged my feeble (by comparison) mind - the real question here is whether we choose the 'human' path of conformity, or the free, questing, spiritual path - the 'dancer' if you will. In a veritable coup of prosaic genius, Brandon has used one of our most uninhibited activities as a surrogate for freedom. Even more perceptively, he is perhaps hinting at the power of music to set us free - a gateway drug, as it were, to true transcendence, as encapsulated in that particular line.

apologies for my brevity - i feel that words simply cannot do justice to the voltaire-like levels of thought contained within the song.



i believe in 100 years time, when we talk about the greats of philosophy, we will be talking about hume, kant, russel, flowers et al.
