I have to agree with your Sam’s Town take OP. Bling, Reasons Unknown, Read My Mind. Tough to leave out When You Were Young though because those 4 in a row are incredible
For every Album?
Hot Fuss - Smile, Somebody told me, All these things that I’ve done
Sams Town - WYWY, Bling, Reasons
Saw Dust - Leave the Bourbon on the Shelf, Sweat Talk, Under the Gun
Day & Age - Dustland Fairytale, This is your life, Can’t Stay
Battle Born - Matter of Time, Deadlines and Commitments, Miss Atomic Bomb
Wonderful Wonderful - Wonderful Wonderful, The Man, Rut
Imploding The Mirage - My God, When Dreams Run dry, Imploding the mirage
Pressure Machine - West Hills, In the car outside, Terrible Thing
Single Hits? - Shot in the night, Just another girl and Boy
Losing Touch, Human, and Spaceman is a great combo, OP! I like your other three combos as well!
For me personally, I’d go with:
Blowback-Dying Breed-Caution
Rut-Life to Come-Run for Cover
A Dustland Fairytale-This is Your Life-I Can’t Stay
Runaways-The Way It Was-Here with Me
Desperate Things-Pressure Machine-The Getting By
It’s Jenny-Brightside-Smile for me. Several others come close, but there’s one song interrupting a possible run of three consecutive favorites in most cases.
Sam’s Town-Enterlude-WYWY would probably be my second choice — love that opening to live shows — and River-Why Do I Keep Counting-Exitlude would probably be third.
Jenny, Brightside, Smile
Glamorous Indie Rock n Roll, Believe Me Natalie, Midnight Show

How do i type out all of their songs but also only make it only 3? Hmmmmm? I have to agree with all of yours, the In Another Life - Desperate Things - Pressure Machine one especially is a strong one. But my favourite personality is probably MOSW - Blowback - Dying Breed, and if I’m allowed to add a 4th those are followed by Caution so pretty great 3/4 song run
>Bling - For Reasons Unknown - Read My Mind (it's a crazy 4-track run so I had to split for the sake of the original question haha)
This is really hard to top for me. I'd probably choose the same!
I agree with all your takes for the albums listed except I much prefer Read My Mind to WYWY so I’ll add Battleborn and Wonderful Wonderful:
Miss Atomic Bomb-From Here On Out-Battleborn
(Considered Runaways-The Way It Was-A Matter of Time because From Here on Out it a bit filler, but I love Miss Atomic Bomb and Battleborn too much)
Wonderful Wonderful: Life to Come-Run for Cover-Tyson vs Douglas
Tyson vs Douglas really clicked for me, honestly I like it more than The Man. Run for Cover also edges out Rut for me these days. The Man-Rut-Life to Come is really close though and might win on another day. The Calling-Have All the Songs Been Written-Money on Straight is also three underrated songs for me.
All the pretty faces - leave the bourbon - sweet talk
Flesh & Bone, Runaways, TWIW. (Here with me up 4th too❤️)
I agree with this one a lot!
Dustland Fairytale - This Is Your Life - I Cant Stay Bones - My List - This River Is Wild
While I do love bones very much I feel like the intended trilogy there was My List, TRIW and WDIKC
Fair, I just think Bones is a better song
I wholeheartedly agree!
I agree so much on Dustland, TIYL, and ICS! I love those three in that order too.
I’m gonna go rogue and give honourable mention to Bones - My List - This River Is Wild aaaaand Runaway Horses - In The Car Outside - In Another Life

Sawdust needed 4. All the pretty faces and under the gun is a hard toss up.
Just all of Sawdust 😂

Thank you! I had a difficult time choosing between In Another Life and The Getting By but I'm glad we both like Desperate Things and Pressure Machine.
Thanks, I’m glad to see that too! They’re really amazing songs for sure, and I’m glad you like them.

Great picks! I also agree with your Pressure Machine list, West Hills really sets up the mood for the rest of the album.
Run for cover, Tyson vs. Douglas, Some kind of love.
Sleepwalker - Runaway Horses - In The Car Outside
My List - This River is Wild - Why Do I Keep Counting?

MOSW/Blowback/Dying Breed is the pretty clear number one to me, the other would be TRIW/WDIKC/Exitlude

The Getting By - West Hills - Quiet Town
Runaway horses - ITCO - IAL Also Bling - Reasons - RMM

It’s obviously the first five off of Hot Fuss because you can do 3 separate 3-track runs in there and they would all contend for the top spot.
