Absolutely outstanding song. Just picture an aural cocktail of Franz Ferdinand, early Blur or Jarvis Cocker. Now carefully fuse it with subtle hints of 80's punk and garnished with an upbeat electro dancey sounding, pulsating rhythmn which just gets better everytime you taste it. Guaranteed floor filler. CAn't wait to hear this pulsating in a club soon. Buy it now, just remember where you are when you do.

4.0 out of 5 stars Somebopdy told me you would be massive!, 27 Mar 2004

By	"bloodflowerbill" - See all my reviews

he new Killers single explodes all over your body like a throbbing guitar and bass sparring monster. Font Man Brandon Flowers voice emoting and twisting all over every hypnotic keyboard driven beat like some brilliant American hybrid of Simon Le Bon and Morrisey. The gender bending glam chorus of "somebody told me you had a boyfriend/who looked like a girl friend." With its signature syth, mark out the killers as something that little bit more interesting, in the world of bands with "the" in front of their name. The Killers along with Stellastarr* are beating a trail for a renaissance in eighties loving young hip slingers, make way for the new wave!(BillCummings).

5.0 out of 5 stars Vegas, baby, 25 Mar 2004

By	"rockbobster" - See all my reviews

It ain't just all you can eat buffets, Celine Dion murdering the classics and rednecks losing their polyester shirts at the Hard Rock Casino. The Killers crawled out of the desert, blinked and decided to slaughter the world with adrenaline charged tunes that take in Joy Division, Cure and the rest of today's sharp suited imitators. The difference is that in Brandon Flowers (surely a made up name) they have a frontman of such intense charisma and presence that global success is assured and the top floor of the Bellagio will no doubt one day be renamed The Killers Suite.

Although this may affect honeymoon bookings.
