So why should they sing like a rock and roll singer if that is not their thing? Is there only one acceptable sound in modern "alternative" (whatever the hell that means?)? I do agree with Sebby that the keyboards in some of The Killers songs do their best to wreck the songs, but I don't begrudge some kid from Vegas for trying to do brit pop.

Hey, you didn't hear Frankie Valli pulling that kind of crap. He was a dumb wop from New Jersey. He knew that and stuck to his roots.
Apropos of nothing, Jersey Boys was great. Many propers.
