The Killers' Brandon Flowers - "All These Things That I've Done"

The Story Behind The Song

For the finale of The Story Behind the Song Season 2, The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers reflects on one of the band's earliest songs -- "All These Things That I've Done." Listen to Flowers' insight into the tune.

Flowers chats about the song's spiritual meaning, explaining how it grapples with themes of guilt, faith, and forgiveness. Ultimately, it's the sonic representation of Flowers' struggle to balance his Mormon beliefs and his pursuit of rock 'n' roll. He then touches on the cut's influences, referencing bands like U2 and David bowie, and previews The Killers' upcoming Las Vegas residency (get tickets here).
