This is the 2nd single off of her recently released album Sunshine After Midnight. While her songs have not taken off on radio, her label is opting to promote her in the clubs where she has had success.
DJ Escape & Johnny Vicious take the slow and seductive original and rewerk it for the clubs. They keep all vocals this time around. The mix is not as dark as some of their recent offerings, however, this one is very in-between and will fit in with a variety of sets. The twisted synth loop and some of the pianos under the verses bear resemblance to Gabriel & Dresden's remix of "Save My Soul" by Kristine W. Intentional or not, it works very well.

The Killers - Read My Mind / Bones
"Bones" was originally the second single off of The Killers' current album, however, "Read My Mind" was chosen instead. Both have got the remixing treatments though.
As of right now, "Read My Mind" has mixes by Pet Shop Boys and Gabriel & Dresden. The Pet Shop Boys mix is a lovely electro/dance/rock mix that could work well on Pop Radio. Seriously. It's very sophisticated and bridges the gap between all those genres. The mix is very retro sounding and calls to mind some of Erasure and Depeche Mode's 80's offerings. Neil Tennant's backing vocals really add to the mix and take it to the next level. Gabriel & Dresden's mix is in a similar vein, but it's a lot more chill. It's very nice as well. More mixes may be on the way.
"Bones" has a mix by Tiga right now. This mix really improves upon the original. The original was not bad, but it needed some energy that this mix gives.
Overall, these mixes work well on the radio and in the clubs so go check these out.
