Yes, the soundscape of "Human" scars narrowly past "wool" Petry. Yes, you can if you want you can from several other songs "Miss You" by the Stones, or "Road to Nowhere" by the Talking Heads listen out. But now get all the have found it a hard work cards.
But what is much more important, as this form of investigative journalism is the fact that it is on Day & Age is a damn entertaining album that carelessly throws the Schlockrockfesseln of its predecessor "Sam's Town" in the corner and candy pink strokes.
The Killers have therefore really no taste aberration from, incl. Saxophone solo, bongos and steel drums, and probably that's why write again so good songs, like on their debut. As an example of this is the song "Spaceman" the might as well have fitted into his kirmesorgeligen gaiety on "Hot Fuss".
Each of this creativity and the courage to change quoted with sniff is just as conservative as the so-called mainstream listeners, to which he always scolds.
That the Killers have this sometimes plagiarized anything too bad at their role models, can therefore be checked off as collateral damage. This album breathes easy from start to finish musical history of Bowie to Franz Ferdinand.
And Remember:
