I love your explanation of the murder trilogy. I like to think Jenny Was a Friend of mine is first though because its the very first track in Hot Fuss and In the recorded version theres no real answer as to whether or not he did kill her. You lean to the assumption that he did but you're not completely sure. I like to think he uses that to set up the story then the other 2 become like a flash back. Thats just the way I like to imagine it though I could be wrong.
Leave the bourbon on the self- he tells her that dont leave him and that he will try again but she leave with a guy
Midnight Show- he leaves the bar and goes out to kippnap her and take her to a river where he drowns and kills her
Jenny was a freind of mine- he get caught by the cops but they seem to not have enought evidece he kill her and try to preasure him unto telling them he kill her.

@few35 I realize the order I was just saying it goes into like a flash back. Like if you were watching a movie and you see the interrogation scene first and then it goes back and shows you what happens. In the other 2 it gives clear motive and flat out tells you that he killed her but in Jenny Was a Friend of Mine they leave it unresolved. If you picked up Hot Fuss for the first time and intently listend to Jenny was a Friend of Mine you would get an interrogation with no conclusion
@GBreezy797 All 3 songs are from the Hot Fuss sessions. Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf just didn't make the album. The album it's on (Sawdust) is a compilation of reject songs and remixes and cover ect. So yeah, from the same time. It's a trilogy.
Thanks for taking the time to share the stories behind the triology songs. You explained it so well with the lyrics too. I had no idea this was the 1st part, it being released in the 4th album. Good to know!
I didnt know about the trilogy either makes me love them even more, BRILLIANT!! BRILLIANT!! BRILLIANT!! I can't choose the BEst song is impossoble. TK NEVER GO AWAY NEVER DISSAPEAR ALWAYS STAY THE SAME.
just because this is in sawdust doesn't mean it wasn't written before midnight show + jenny was a friend of mine.
Sawdust is a compilation album of songs they didnt put on the first 2.
this was just one of them. Another example would be all the pretty faces, that was released in sawdust in 2007, but they performed it at glastonbury 05.
I can't hear the voice, only the instrumentals.
