Video: The Killers: "Read My Mind"

The Killers have been pumping up their "Read My Mind" video with preview clips for a while now, but the video itself is pretty uneventful, blandly citing similarities between Las Vegas and Tokyo-- neon signs, Elvis impersonators, and Japanese arcades that look like rows of slot machines. But the band also tries to downplay the foreign-ness of Japan in other ways: They ride bikes through narrow streets, start a leaf fight with Japanese children, and high five with passers-by.

Despite the area-sized drama of "Read My Mind," the Killers do seem to have a sense of humor here. Okay, maybe Brandon Flowers' Colonel Sanders look isn't supposed to be a joke, but the giant green dinosaur that follows them from location to location has to be. Wait... why do people care about these guys again?
