If you've heard the song Human by The Killers, you might already know that there's a lot of controversy on the internets about the lyrics.

Are we human?
Or are we dancer(/denser)?
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(/denser)?

(this one can't be embedded here)

Brandon Flowers claims that he wrote "dancer" in the lyrics, but that doesn't make any sense, unless it's "dancers." "Denser" makes much more sense, but it doesn't fit the video or his claim.

Being a conspiracy theorist myself, I think that the entire thing was designed to create controversy, which creates both sales and fame. Brandon Flowers is either a grammatical moron, or he's a marketing and lyrical genius. Maybe he's both.

Thanks for the link JPark. I like that film clip. Pleasant music and he has a singing voice. Not like some of the screamers out there.

not really a killers fan but when i hear it on the radio i always thought he says denser :shrug:

 

[RobtRoma]

Sounds like he says DANCER to me. Do you think he means Santa's Reindeer? :shrug:

 

[jpark]

:lol:

Nobody asked Flowers if "dancer" was capitalized.

 

[JIMMYJOHN]

I can not judge him or his music either way because I am not up on their tunes.

 

[Dasha]

It's DANCER. Case closed. :taz:

 

[jpark]

The reindeer?

 

[Dasha]

Yes, the reindeer. :taz: Why should Rudolph get all the attention? He had help. Now it's Dancer's turn. :rockon:

 

[jpark]

I don't see Dancer in the video.

 

[Dasha]

Because they didn't film the video at the North Pole, silly.

 

[jpark]

North Pole, schnorth pole. If Dancer wasn't in the video, the whole reindeer theory gets pitched out the window.

:lol:

He's singing "denser".

[Dasha]

Dancer. :taz:

 

[jpark]

Denser!

 

[Dasha]

[Dasha]

[Wingsfan]

:lol: dancer just dosnt sound right, and they have a bunch of animals in the video plus he's wearing some kind of animal suit? so it's got to be denser...............not unless he is wearing dancer :shock:

 

[Blood Junkie]

It's something to do with a Hunter S. Thompson quote........And it is dancer.
