The Killers - Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine

Jenny Was A Friend of Mine by the Killers is part of a 'Murder Triology'. In other words, three songs over three of their albums tell a part of the story.

- ‘Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf’ is the FIRST part:
He drinks himself stupid after Jenny left him (“Shakin’ like the Devil when she let me go…”) because of his jealousy. He can’t get over the fact that she’s left him and is seeing someone else. “Jennifer, tell me where I stand/and who’s that other boy holdin’ your hand?”

- ‘Midnight Show’ is the SECOND part:
He kills Jenny by suffocating her and throwing her body into the sea. “I took my baby’s breath beneath the chandelier of stars in atmosphere and watched her disappear into the midnight show” and “Crashing tide can’t hide a guilty girl” (jealousy again).

- ‘Jenny Was A Friend of Mine’ is the THIRD part:
He’s been caught and is defending himself by lying to the police. “There ain’t no motive for this crime Jenny was a friend of mine.” He tells the police he wouldn’t kill her because she was his friend so he explains with: “She couldn’t scream while I held I close/I swore I’d never let her go.” but in live versions he sings “She kicked and screamed while I held her throat”. 

Therefore, we thought choosing one of these songs would make it easy to get a storyline from. We chose the third part‘Jenny Was A Friend of Mine’ as we liked the song best and felt this had the most inspiring lyrics.

I found a couple of videos that had already been made using this song, some good, some bad.
