It may not snow in Las Vegas but that hasn't stopped this foursome getting into the Christmas spirit. The Killers are occasionally known for their somewhat bizarre song lyrics (are we dancer?), and their take on writing festive songs is far from traditional either. But who needs traditional when you can have an accompanying video of Brandon Flowers tied up in the Vegas desert watching a sock puppet show performed by an evil Santa? Not me.
This is becoming somewhat of a custom to The Killers' December schedule, with this being the fourth year that the band have released a Christmas song. This year's track is titled rather un-festively 'Happy Birthday Guadalupe', but this can be (partially) forgiven due to the fact all proceeds are going straight to the charity RED, run to help combat AIDS in Africa. For today's track I'm going with one of their older, more suitably themed Christmas songs, 'Don't Shoot Me Santa'. Maybe not one to play to people who still believe.
