“Human” the first single from the third studio album, “Day & Age”, of the Las Vegas originating band, The Killers peaked at #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 a little over a week ago. The album is set for release on November 25th.

London's Observer newspaper stated that the Killers "may just be the strangest band in America.” Well if strangest is slang for hugest and most comparable to British powerhouses like Keane and Coldplay…I agree.

“Human” was produced by Stuart Price who has also worked with Madonna and Missy Elliot. The band visited him in London where the song was taken to another level close to quality it now has. “My sign is Vital/ My hands are cold/ And I’m on my knees looking for the answer/ Are we Human or are we Dancer?”

Some are still confused over whether or not Brandon Flowers is saying Dancer or Denser (which would make more sense to them), however the lyric is in fact Dancer and Island Records has confirmed it.

Flowers says that the song was inspired by a quote by Hunter S. Thompson, “America is raising a generation of dancers,” referring to the fact that dancers follow a pattern and must stick to it, thus smothering Individuality. I found a video on YouTube that does a great job of explaining this.

The sound of the song is truly amazing, the more you listen to it, the more you will love it. Reminiscent of the power of “When You Were Young” and “Mr. Brightside”, “Human” is another epic, synthy and percussion filled rock anthem from The Killers.
