The Killers covers?

I came across a cover the Killers did of Four Winds by Bright Eyes, I like it
YouTube - The Killers- Four Winds Cover

I haven't really been following them for some time but appearantly they did a lot of covers as I came across below list online:

Shadowplay (Joy Division)
Let's Get Lost (Elliott Smith)
In the Backseat (Arcade Fire)
This Apparatus must be Unearthed (Mars Volta)
Simple Twist of Fate (Bob Dylan)
Who Makes the Nazis (The Fall)
Revolution No 1 (The Beatles)
Wild Horses (Rolling Stones)
Don't let me be the last to know (Britney Spears)
Tonight Tonight (Smashing Pupkins)
Frances Farmer will have her revenge on Seattle (Nirvana)

Did they really do those and if so, does anyone have these on mp3??

they do a cover of "romeo and juliet" by dire straits and "ruby, don't take your love to town" by that dude who's not kenny rogers on the sawdust album. tillis?

the "ruby cover" is also a b-side to "smile like you mean it" and it's in the hot fuss 7 inch box set. also in the box set is "why don't you find out for yourself" by moz.

i believe they've done another moz solo cover as well. and bowie too. oh and they covered the nevada state song which is the most awesome cover ever done.

there's a fan site somewhere with all this information but i'm too lazy to find it right now.

edit: oh and "helter skelter" by the beatles which they did live in oz i think with the vines and louis xiv

In an interview with Q magazine, Vannucci revealed that the band was planning to record an album of cover versions.[26] He said that each band member would choose three tracks and that his picks would be Rod Stewart's 1981 song "Young Turks" and tracks by Tom Waits and Genesis.

Just read that on Wikipedia yesterday.
Considering how much I liked "Sawdust", and all covers record might turn out pretty cool, too.
