The Killers - Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself?

Before all the hot fuss spread around Hot Fuss, The Killers recorded a wonderfully subdued version of Morrissey's 'Why Don't You Find Out For Yourself?' for BBC radio. The original track can be found on Moz's 1994 LP, Vauxhall And I, while The Killers take appeared as the B-side to the 'All These Things I've Done' single in November of '04.

As the myth goes, Moz heard The Killers version of the tune and immediately asked the guys to open up for a tour spot in Vegas later that evening.

Tell us what you think after checking out the cover below.
