Most musicians grow up idolizing the generation that came before them and once in awhile they are lucky enough to play along side their influences. Brandon Flowers and the Killers, however, are not going to leave jamming with their idols it chance. Talking about ideas on how to follow up their Sam's Town record, Flowers reportedly stated he'd like to collaborate with Elton John.

Of course, if this came to pass, this wouldn't be the first time the Killers paired up with a legend. Lou Reed recently joined the band to record the tune "Tranquilizer." Reed says he liked the song right away upon hearing it and was pleased the way his voice meshed with Flowers'. The song appears on Sawdust, a compilation of B-sides, rarities and remixes that is set to hit stores in the U.S. on November 13th. Meanwhile, you can check out the video on YouTube.
