In this episode, Flowers reflects on how the song was inspired by his struggle to balance his Mormon beliefs and his pursuit of rock and roll. Flowers goes on to explain how U2 and David Bowie influenced the song's composition, before discussing a newer release, "Spirit," from the greatest hits album and the Killers' Vegas residency—which ironically is in their hometown.Listen to Brandon Flowers dive into "All These Things that I've Done" and more on your favorite podcast platform.
