Recorded in an early BBC Radio 1 session before featuring as a B side to 2004's All These Things That I've Done, this cover received perhaps the greatest praise of all when original artist Morrissey explained he was "honoured" by it. 

While this review may sound simple enough to most, consider the importance of one of Flowers' greatest idols offering such feedback and you start to realise just how important that that confidence boost could have been in pushing the fledgling Killers toward monumental success. 

The song has Flowers offering up his best Morrissey impressions in a style akin to how club bands everywhere try so hard to mimic the power of Mr. Brightside these days. It's a touching homage to one of his greatest influences.
