Man!!! Is This New Killers Joint a Dance Hall Delight!!

The Killers' lead singer Brandon Flowers has charisma in spades, and he puts it to good use throughout the band's sweat commanding new single "The Man". Get a load of the video if proof is what you need. It's his world and we're privileged to live in it. Up and down the track swagger power drives this baby. The entire crew kicks into fifth gear and what results is a danceable confection that leaves you with a luscious mouth feel that lasts for days, weeks, even months. Brandon's liberal sprinkling of keyboard fill gives the song the megawatt boost that sends it into legendary status. Ronnie Vannucci, Jr. gives his drum kit a mighty healthy workout, thus offering background machismo for Brandon to feed off of. Dave Keuning's guitar leaps off the page and sends visions of Trojan condoms dancing in the listener's head. Bassist Mark Stoermer is no slouch in the randiness department either. The puzzle pieces fit triumphantly but...this puzzle needs someone to start tinkering with it to give it the curiosity factor a quality rock song demands. One needs only take a peek at the lyrics to get some idea how good Brandon Flowers is at horsing around. He doesn't give a damn about those other boys and why should he since he wears the crown while his imitators have to settle for kissing the ring. Brandon unloads the textbook definition of player by crowing about he has gas in the tank and money in the bank. Wouldn't you just kill to be him, the him the video plays up as master of his domain? Don't try to teach Brandon anything 'cause he's too gifted for words. Ladies, here's some USDA certified lean meat the local Publix doesn't have in its display case. Who wouldn't enjoy the company of a man who feels no pain. "The Man" has to be the first time in history where the lyric "I got skin in the game" was included. In short "The Man" owns its rock moment. The Bee Gees, both living and dead are likely smiling at the page The Killers stole from their playbook. It's channeling all sorts of libido, pushes itself to the limit energy wise and is flat out a damn huge amount of fun. These man pants are a thrill to wear even if we get the invitation vicariously. https://youtu.be/3VsHqbyRz5c
