All These Things That I’ve Done: Video

Scritta dal cantante e leader dei Killers Brandon Flowers, All These Things That I've Done è stata incisa per il loro album di debutto, Hot Fuss (2004), e da lì è stata estratta come terzo singolo. E' stata l'unico brano eseguito dal gruppo al Live 8 del 2 Luglio 2005 ed ha fatto da colonna sonora di un discreto numero di film. Il celebre interludio della canzone, "I've got soul but i'm not a soldier" (ho un'anima ma non sono un soldato), è stato definito come una delle classiche frasi prive di senso dei Killers (si veda Are We Human or Are We Dancers?).
