@katyperry1o1 listen to the killers leave 'the bourbon on the shelf' and 'midnight show' this is the third in "the murder trilogy" it is he telling the police that he didn't kill jenny
@katyperry1o1 the killers did a three song murder story starting with a song called Leave The Bourbon on the Shelf, next was Midnight Show and this one is the actual murder, Jenny Was a Friend of Mine. I'm not sure but it's pretty possible the Mr.Brightside is another installment because it says "Coming out of my cage." possibly a jail cell? Idk but there it is!!! :)
@MrsFlowers777 You're actually pretty close. Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf was about Jenny cheating on the main character, Midnight Show was about the actual murder, and Jenny Was a Friend of Mine was about the main character being arrested and questioned by the police the following day. There's always been rumors about Mr. Brightside being a fourth installment, but it seems pretty unlikely considering the songs have always been referred to as a trilogy by the band members themselves.
i like this cover, but honestly i pictured the acoustic a bit darker like the original, and it sounds rather upbeat, but still as always brandon continues to out due himself
@terraion567 Uhh... actually *Looks at Hot Fuss cover* Brandon Flowers (The Killers' lead singer and dude singing here) and Mark Stoermer (The Killers' bassist) wrote this for The Killers' Hot Fuss album, released in 2004.
This version is quite good, but better than the original? Are you joking? Have you ever heard it alive? It´s one of The Killers best live songs! Have you ever been to a The Killers live show?
I like the way he's totally changed it. The only real similarity is the lyrics, because it's so much different to the Jenny we know. It wouldn't be right to perform the original without the rest of the band.. That's MARK's bassline, y'know? So it's good that he's changed it. Same with Losing Touch. But I still think the originals are better.
i kinda strangely like it but i think jenny should strictly be performed the original way. that cant be touched, its amazing w the bass and the whole band of instruments.
@blueviola121 No. It's a Killers song, but he wrote it. I guess you could say it's a cover, but that would be like saying Kris Kristofferson covered Me And Bobby McGee.
@UberSuperJustMike1 It could be considered a cover yes as it is different than the origional, even if its sung by the writer, also The Killers bassist wrote this song with Brandon.
@NewWendyCann Lol. It was just an initial thought. I realize it was a stupid question now. I just wondered that since he didn't write it on his own, if it would be a cover for the other guys playing behind him.
@advocateofjoy I didnt mean to sound like a know it all..lol. but your right, for the other it would be. Cant wait for the other 3 to be back too..But its all good.xoxo
