| The Killers – Glamorous Indie Rock and Roll Lyrics

musically this song reminds me a lot of Queen(esp the step up at the bridge, reminds me of the end of 'bohemian rhapsody'). moreover, lyrically there are a lot of allusions to other bands including Queen, Duran Duran, The Beatles, and i'm sure there are more.

i guess they changed the lyrics as well as the name of this song. you can find demos and live versions of it where these are the correct lyrics.
i think the new album sounds a little over produced. a problem they ran into with 'blue' and tried to get away from with the 'out of the vein' album. |

Cassiopeia:
the wife of Cepheus, the King of Ethiopia (the Phoenician kingdom, not the modern country), was beautiful, arrogant, and vain, and these latter two characteristics led to her downfall. The boast of Cassiopeia was that both she and her daughter Andromeda were more beautiful than all the Nereids, the sea nymphs, daughters of Nereus, the sea god. This brought the wrath of Poseidon, ruling god of the sea, upon the kingdom of Ethiopia (differing accounts state that either Cetus, the sea monster, on Poseidon's instructions, was to destroy the land, or that the whole country was to be flooded). Trying to avert such a fate, Cepheus and Cassiopeia consulted a wise oracle, who told them that the only way to appease the sea gods was to sacrifice their daughter. Accordingly, Andromeda was chained to a rock at the sea's edge, and left there to helplessly await her fate at the mercy of the sea monster. But Perseus arrived in time and saved Andromeda. Poseidon considered that Cassiopeia should not escape punishment entirely, and placed her in the heavens in such a position that as she circles the celestial pole she is upside-down for half the time. |
