“Human” was released in September 2008 with Flowers describing the song as ” Johnny Cash meets the Pet Shop Boys”. The song became a hit worldwide. The lyric “Are we human, or are we dancer?” confused listeners, due to its grammar and ambiguity. Flowers explained that the line was inspired by a Hunter S. Thompson quote where he stated America was raising “a generation of dancers”. It has since been voted by one poll as the most confusing song lyric of all time.
