Huge debate when this song came out - Denser/Dancer. I believe Brandon said it was dancer, taken from an article written by Hunter S Thomson. Dancer being a reference to following a routine/script, afraid to think, act and behave in a different way. Great Post.
I did my best to notice When the call came down the line Up to the platform of surrender I was brought but I was kind And sometimes I get nervous When I see an open door Close your eyes, clear your heart Cut the cord Are we human or are we dancers? My sign is vital, my hands are cold And I'm on my knees looking for the answer Are we human or are we dancers? Pay my respects to grace and virtue Send my condolences to good Hear my regards to soul and romance They always did the best they could
i say let the lyrics be what you want because a real song is to be interpreted the way that you feel is right so what ever u want is what it is because the lyrics dont matter if it is not what you want sing it the way you want that is probably what the killers would want most anyways :)
On the band's official website, the biography section states that Flowers is singing "Are we human, or are we dancer?" and also says that Flowers said the lyrics were inspired by a disparaging comment made by Hunter S. Thompson about how America was raising a generation of dancers.[
The lyrics were amazingly subtle. Supported by the fact that it flew over so many heads. people thought it was dumb, or a mistake lol. Watch my video I explain why its dancer, not dancers, or denser
I'm going to go with denser for that line... just to be honest It doesn't make sense to say or are WE dancER with no s at the end making it singular... just to put a grammatical twist on it.
Its dancer, he's referring to a comment made by Hunter S. Thomson that were raising a generation of dancers. Listen to the tone of the song, it sounds like an electric rave scene song. It would make more sense if it was denser.
initially, i thought it was dancer (without listening to the lyrics properly), but now im pretty sure its denser, also, im fairly certain its 'soul and romance', not 'sorer moments' lol, thnx for posting man
hey to solve the hole dancer-denser debate look both words up in the dictionary and w/e meaning fits it go with that its honestly ( in my vote ) denser

Even if it's not " Dancer " I'm still going to make it that, Being a Student at Boston Ballet School- I like Dancer better! :) Thumbs up!!

If, like us, you're in love with the new Killers
track, Human, you're probably a little confused
by the lyrics. "Are we human or are we dancer?"
(Like, since when has dancer been an adjective?)
Brandon Flowers' explanation? Well, he was
inspired by a Hunter S Thompson quote, that
America was just raising a generation of
dancers. And that's it.

He is categorizing "dancer" as he categorized "human".
As you can see, "human" is also singular, thus making "dancer" correct.
