USA Petheads:
The Killers are on Dave Letterman tonight. Not sure which song they'll be singing.

Shouldn't this be in the Off Topic section?

Good job--I still don't like it as a single (I love the song but) but I guess it makes sense to be the US single as it's the Day and Age track that most sounds like a Sam's town track--which was a bigger album there.

Love the added strings and percussion too--when I saw them live in concert 3 weeks back (amazing show) they had a few extra players like a violinist.

to be pedantic that's a traditional string section, not just violins ;)

Much better quality versions here

I'm dazzled by the energy the band put into this performance. Just look at the drummer at the end....he's knackered!

Their set when I saw them a few weeks back was 19 songs and about 100 minutes, and I swear the energy stayed at full blast from all involved (but particularly Brandon and the drummer, Ronnie. One of the best rock shows I've gone to (even if I think of Killers as kinda pop/rock...)
