No Picture Paul Lead Player	#1 by Paul Jarosz at Dec 7, 1974 at 6:53 PM EST
	Totally forgot...he's engaged...but he could still be Bi, and he is still hot!

	killers rock... this song rocks

No Picture bobby Rhythm Player	#3 by bobby volm at Jan 20, 1978 at 12:39 PM EST
	I just thought this song was about trying to pick up a girl in a bar. Her old boyfriend had longer hair (for a guy) and his old girlfriend had shorter hair (for a girl). Since their taste ran similiar they should hook up. Really. I have no clue, thought it was about trying to hook up at a bar.........

No Picture Matt Lead Player	#4 by Matt Cromwell at Apr 18, 1982 at 9:57 PM EST
	Somebody Told Me- The Killers: I think Joshy's judgement is great! But besides the meaning, it is a GREAT dance song.

No Picture bob Rhythm Player	#5 by bob at Jan 31, 1993 at 7:46 AM EST
	I have a feeling it's either he's just trying to insult his girlfriend's supposedly sissy-looking boyfriend... OR this song is about RELATIONSHIPS AMONG BI-SEXUALS.

No Picture 2D Average	#6 by 2D at Sep 20, 1996 at 10:15 AM EST
	I um... don't really know what the song means but it's really good! ^_^;;

No Picture Tim Professional	#7 by Tim Marchant at May 3, 2001 at 12:17 AM EST
	aren't The Killers from Las Vegas? Heaven ain't close in a place like that... it might be how a rumor can be twisted in so many different ways when you're in a place like Vegas. I dunno. but it's still a great song.

No Picture Austin Average	#8 by Austin Cook at Oct 18, 2002 at 7:15 AM EST
	I thought he was trying to insult his ex when he said "You had a boyfriend Who looked like a girlfriend That I had in February of last year" It seems like he's kind of trying to make fun of her by telling her that her boyfriend looks like a girl. I dont know, just my opinion.

No Picture Todd Average	#9 by Todd Cathey at Feb 2, 2005 at 5:26 PM EST
	This song is so disco! ;) It makes me wanna dance every time and when it played at a party last weekend the whole dance floor was full of people, it's a great high-energy song. Makes me think of the warm summer nights spend with my friends dancing at parties. The two beats just before every chorus just make you wanna sing along and those 80s synthesizers are great fun! I basically just think he's just trying to make fun of her new boyfriend who maybe looks a bit girlish (might be because of long hair or something), but I may be wrong.
