Intro：Filmed at London’s Royal Albert Hall during two very special shows in July 2009, Live From The Royal Albert Hall showcases the Killers at their live best. This CD-sized package also includes the band’s first and only live CD with, as well as a behind-the-scenes documentary. Live From The Royal Albert Hall features tracks from the band’s three studio albums, Hot Fuss (2004), Sam’s Town (2006) and Day & Age (2008)--including huge hit singles "Human", "Spaceman", "When You Were Young", "Read My Mind", "Mr Brightside", "Somebody Told Me" and "All These Things That I’ve Done"--as well as rarer tracks including a cover of Joy Division’s "Shadowplay" and fan favourite "Sweet Talk" (from the 2007 collection of rarities, Sawdust).

The Killers(杀手乐团)成立于2002年，来自美国拉斯维加斯，由Brandon Flowers（主唱）,Dave Keuning（电吉他手）,Mark Stoermer（贝司）和Ronnie Vannucci Jr.（鼓手）四人组建。他们音乐风格属于轻重摇滚，风格介于流行与摇滚之间。
2004年，The Killers横跨大西洋，与英国独立厂牌lizard king签约，之后以单曲《Mr. Brightside》冲上英国流行单曲榜top 10，收入了以上两支上榜单曲的首张专辑《Hot Fuss》于年中发行，充满了米字旗的味道，深受英国歌迷的喜爱。后来他们获得了美国大厂Island的一纸合约，跃身英国乐坛主流。其创作的首波全球单曲《somebody told me》拿下billboard现代摇滚单曲与英国金榜的第三名，声名大噪，专辑销售突破300万张。
主唱Brandon曾眼中闪着光芒说道：“我们想要成为美国的U2”，结果功夫不负苦心人！The Killers出道不到4个月就获得2005格莱美奖及全英音乐奖共5项提名，创作大碟《Hot Fuss》拿下英国金榜双周冠军、billboard流行专辑榜第8名，并受到U2的Bono，David Bowie，Duran Duran等人高度赞赏，摇滚爵士Elton John在巴黎宣传时特别邀请他们一起上电视节目，更是公开表示“这是我最爱的乐队”！

Few bands in the mid-2000s rose so quickly to the forefront of pop music as Las Vegas quartet the Killers. With a mix of 80s-styled synth pop and fashionista charm, the bands street-smart debut, Hot Fuss, became one of 2004s biggest releases, spawning four singles and catapulting the group — particularly their dandyish, 22-year-old frontman, Brandon Flowers — into the international spotlight. Hot Fuss reveled in the garish glitz of the bands native Las Vegas, spinning tales of androgynous girlfriends and illicit affairs to a public whose taste for revivalist dance-rock would prove to be virtually insatiable. Franz Ferdinand, Interpol, and the Bravery all benefited from such retro-minded interest, but the Killers unapologetically trumped them all — even when their sophomore effort, Sams Town, deemphasized the groups new wave sensibilities in favor of something more akin to the heartland rock of Bruce Springsteen and Rattle and Hum-era U2.
Brandon Flowers (vocals/keyboards), David Keuning (guitar), Mark Stoermer (bass), and Ronnie Vannucci (drums) first came together in 2002, two years before the stylish Hot Fuss introduced their band to the public. Flowers had been sacked by his former synth pop band, Blush Response, after refusing to move to Los Angeles alongside his bandmates. Instead, he remained in Las Vegas, where he soon met local guitarist and Oasis fanatic Keuning. The two began collaborating on material; within weeks, they had composed their soon-to-be radio hit Mr. Brightside. Stoermer, a former medical courier, and Vannucci, a classical percussion major at UNLV, soon joined the fray, and the band began playing small clubs in their hometown. A U.K. representative for Warner Bros caught wind of the Killers brewing hype, and although he neglected to bring them aboard the Warner roster, he did pass along their demo to London-based indie imprint Lizard King. The British label quickly signed the Killers, who temporarily moved to the U.K. and issued a limited-edition single for Mr. Brightside. The Killers buzz had effectively traveled back across the Atlantic by fall 2003, and the band was offered a prime spot at the annual CMJ Music Marathon in New York City. A worldwide deal with Island followed shortly thereafter, positioning the Killers to join the ranks of Interpol, the Rapture, and the Strokes.
Shared U.K. dates with British Sea Power and stellastarr* in summer 2004 gave the Killers the opportunity to showcase material from their debut album, Hot Fuss, which arrived in June. Somebody Told Me, Mr. Brightside, Smile Like You Mean It, and All These Things That Ive Done all became worldwide chart hits, and Hot Fuss peaked at number seven on the Billboard Top 200. Buoyed by such success, Flowers became a sought-after media presence, often lashing out at such groups as the Bravery for riding his bands coattails into the mainstream. The frontmans confidence was not unwarranted; by 2006, Hot Fuss had earned five Grammy nominations and sold over five million copies. Rather than take a break to recover from their relentless tour regime, the Killers immediately set to work on their sophomore effort. A newly built facility at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas became the bands studio, and legendary producers Flood and Alan Moulder (who had previously worked together with U2 and the Smashing Pumpkins) were chosen to helm the controls. Instead of mining the glamour and glitz of their hometown (as they did to successful extent on Hot Fuss), the group instead focused on nostalgia and the demise of old-fashioned American values, citing veteran songsmith Bruce Springsteen as a chief influence.
The popularity generated by leadoff single When You Were Young led up to the highly anticipated release of Sams Town in early October 2006. While the album did not match the commercial popularity of the bands debut, it nevertheless sold 700,000 copies worldwide during its first week, eventually spawning three U.S. singles and gaining the Killers two additional Grammy nominations. Sawdust, a collection of B-sides, rarities, and remixes, was scheduled for a fall release the following year.

Lyrics：

I did my best to notice
When the call came down the line
Up to the platform of surrender
I was brought but I was kind
And sometimes I get nervous
When I see an open door
Close your eyes
Clear your heart...
Cut the cord
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
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?
Pay my respects to grace and virtue
Send my condolences to good
Give my regards to soul and romance,
They always did the best they could
And so long to devotion
You taught me everything I know
Wave goodbye
Wish me well..
You've gotta let me go
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
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?
Will your system be alright
When you dream of home tonight?
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know is your heart still beating
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
My sign is vital
My hands are cold
And I'm on my knees
Looking for the answer
You've gotta let me know
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
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?
Are we human?
Or are we dancer?
Are we human
Or are we dancer?
