"Somebody Told Me" is the kind of single that only comes along every few years. In my opinion, they've got Franz Ferdinand beat, in part because they aim higher. These are big songs with sweeping choruses and enough musical sparkle to take them to the bigtime in a hurry. The other tracks don't quite live up to STM, but, that's OK. "Mr. Brightside" (the UK single) is also a winner. Can't wait for "Hot Fuss" (the debut album!)

The killers cd is so awesome! I saw them in concert and it was just awesome. Somebody told me is somewhat like a 80s Techno punk sound... Its really great you should check them out!

Somebody Told Me sounded good the first time I heard it. By the second time through my headset I was oddly addicted to it. Great hook! I'm not sure I'm going to make it until the album release this summer. I didn't even mind paying for shipping from the UK. Completely worth it. I've got all my friends hooked on it now.
