You have a very open mind with music and I thought that your reaction was lovely. My Chemical Romance has been a very influential band in my life that got me through rough times growing up, especially when I was in middle school. I still love them to this day. I know you said that the video itself was a little confusing to you. I think the premise is mostly based around the idea that even though death is inevitable, your memory will last in the hearts of minds of those who you have touched. You don't have to be a hero to be remembered. The "Black Parade" is something like the personification of death that comes to take you to the other side. Thank you for taking time to listen to them, I think that you would enjoy the sound of the rest of "The Black Parade" album and the album that they wrote prior to it, "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge". I look forward to seeing more reactions from you :)
Wow,that was amazing. I am in middle school and I am also going through really rough times,and I am very thankful you wrote this comment. I know I wasn't meant for me,but I am still thankful. with love,Halima.
***** No I'm not I swear on my life... that's not something go odd to swear on...I swear on Gerard Ways life... I would never lie if I swear on his... see I'm telling the truth
if anybody was curious... the idea behind it is when you die the memory you enjoyed the most in life will be what brings you to the underworld (Like the grim reaper) in this case the patient died young and his most enjoyed memory was going to see a parade.
The moment you pinpointed "Punk" I think is when you became a new favorite reactor for me. Great ear for noticing the old sound as well! This album is a concept album. Fucking beautiful. I'm not sure how old is video is, so I'm not sure how expanded your repertoire has gotten, but give it go if you haven't ❤️
Though I'm sure it's been before I figured I'd reiterate the point of this song I guess. "Welcome to the black parade" is My Chemical Romances third album and it's a concept album based around the patient who is dying of cancer. The idea is that everyone sees death in their own sort of way and so the patient is remembering a memory of him and his father seeing a parade in the city and thus the black parade is created as his way of moving on. Each song in the album follows the patient somehow and this one is you could say, the main purpose because it explains this key idea. It's talking about how he has left the world and what memory will be taken by the people still living. So glad you did this song because My Chemical Romance is really important to me and I feel like this is a good example of what they did in this period of their time as a band.
Thank you so much for watching, enjoying, and commenting! I am glad that my reacting to this made you happy and I wish they had not broken up- but everything ends, as this song itself points out. Thank you so much and you have a GREAT day!
To sum it up the character known only as "The Patient" has died of cancer. Gerard Way, the frontman, believes death comes for u in the form of ur greatest memory. The Patient's greatest memory was when his father took him to see a marching band when he was a boy, thus death has come for him in the form of "The Black Parade". Throughout the song Gerard tells him that its OK to pass on because his memory will carry on and he won't be forgotten as he joins the Black Parade and passes into the afterlife. Wonderful reaction btw, glad I stumbled on this and glad u enjoyed MCR so much
The bolero-like intro and the middle "Do or die, you'll never break me, because the world will never take my heart etc" section is seriously channelling Queen. They performed this live with Brian May once. Needless to say, it was phenomenal. The video is on TH-cam.
My second favorite song by MCR, directly after Cancer. It's a great one. Just how it swells slowly from the beginning and gets steadily louder and grander... awesome stuff.
That was interesting. Not really my thing but I applaud the fact that your're willing to keep your mind open to new stuff. Sounds like you are starting to turn the corner on being sick. I hope that is the case. Marry Christmas, my friend.
+trendsetter74 I am feeling a TON better- my stomach is barely upset anymore, my stomach feels a LOT better, and my body doesn't have that "sick hurt" to it. It's a good thing! :D Take care my friend!
wow, it was such a GREAT surprise for me that you saw my chemical romance! they are indeed amazing and you should hear more of them. such a strong and genuine band. react more to them if you want to, i would love to see! :-) great reaction, as always!
+Anna Fernandes (rot3rdf) I do plan on watching, reacting, recording, uploading more MCR and if you have any faves you'd like me to watch I'd love to see! Than kyou for watching and enjoying and I wish you the best in this upcoming New Year!
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer you could watch Famous Last Words, Helena, Teenagers or The Ghost Of You if you want musics more like Welcome To The Black Parade. but they also have different styles, like Sing (which i LOVE) or Na Na Na. these are the songs that have videos, but if you want, listen their album Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, it's my fave. anyways, just sugestions, but i hope you like them. such a strong band. and i wish you a great 2016! :)
Video is about the concept where when you die there is someone who guides you and it can be a family member a friend etc who has died but in the character's case it's a parade because of the fond memory of his father taking him to see a marching band
Mr. NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer, you really look like my greatgrandfather who passed away last week. You also make me smile, because of how polite you are.
How i understand the song is, black parade is when people marches during your funeral in black and the medal represents a veteran. For me this is a song for the heroes of the country.
You should react to My Chemical Romance Ghost of you, the music video is really well done and it takes place in world war 1 or 2 I believe it might be world war 2.
OMG I LOVE MCR My chemical romance was my fav band when I was in the school.... I was so sad when they disbanded... :'c but I still love their music.. MAMA and Teenagers are my fav songs
+Soňa Tomčíková :D Thank you so much! Thank you for watching and enjoying- I am going to be watching and recording more MCR in the future so no fear! Take care, have a great day!
I'm subbed now, love your reaction. The video is about that patient, the dead comes onto him like his strongest memory: A parade that he saw when he was a kid (The Black Parade). You should watch The Ghost Of You by My Chemical Romance, I will love to see that.
+Xiomara Victoria Thank you very much for the information, that's cool, and thank you so very much for watching and enjoying! Thank you as well for the suggestion and I will be watching this as soon as I can. You take care and have a great upcoming New Year!
Yay, I love this song. I believe the video is about death and the Black Parade is all the people who have died. The father asked his son if he would be a good person and help people. Will he be strong and keep going, even when people tell him he can't? Cause one day he isn't going to be around anymore, he's going to pass away and join all the other in that Black Parade. The lyrics also say, "Your memory will carry on." =] Over all I believe both the song and video are lovely and a wonderful say to Also in the video, their is a clip of a small group of people holding a sign saying "starved to death, in a land of plenty." Which could easily mean, we have so much food in the world, yet their are so many families who are still starving to death.
+pssnangel4 I REALLY like the interpretation you have given the song- it makes it quite awesome! It is an amazing thing. Take care my friend and have a GREAT holiday season!
Don't know if this was answered, but MCR used the Black Parade as a metaphor for death. The Black Parade album is basically an entire story about this man, the patient, who's dying of cancer, and of the Black Parade. Gerard Way, the vocalist, said in an interview that parades often harkened back to funerals (the New Orleans jazz funerals, processionals for deceased soldiers, etc.) so rather than have this spirit of whatever, Gerard thought it would be better to have something celebratory like a parade come at the moment of your death and lead you on to wherever you happen to be going. Excellent videos, by the by. You're kinda like the grandfather I wish I had, if he were still alive. Keep on, sir. You're pretty awesome.
NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer This Song Is About, Well So The Main Guy Who Is Singing (Guard Way) He Saw The Twin Towers Fall. So That's Why He Made It!
Every song in the album follows the same story though, but possibly not in order. I'd guess: P has a happy childhood, with a notable experience of seeing a marching band with his father (Disenchanted/WttBP) P's father dies (WttBP) P joins the army much to his mother's dismay. (Mama) He leaves the army after realising its cruel nature (Teenagers) He splits up with his girlfriend (I Don't Love You) He leads a reckless lifestyle (The Sharpest Lives) He gets the news he has two weeks to live (Dead!) He starts wondering what his legacy will be (How I Disappear) He starts chemotherapy, gaining a reputation for joking around with the doctors and nurses. (Cancer/Blood) He dies, leaving his siblings and aunt behind, experiencing the Parade as he enters the afterlife (Sleep/WttBP) He goes to hell (House of Wolves) P starts telling his story to the audience from the afterlife (The End) Famous Last Words is a weird one. It takes place just after Cancer as he tries to make a last stand, but it's left open as to whether or not he's successful. If he isn't, he dies and goes to hell. If he was successful though then everything after Blood is simply what he imagines would have happened had he died. As Mother War is also shown in the Black Parade MV, we can guess she also died sometime between Mama and WttBP.
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer lol yup. But instead of saying, "Don't cry....... Craft." You could also say 'crafting' which is basically another word for crying. Lol I'm a HUGE MCR fan.
I only just stumbled upon your videos, but im already a big fan and appreciate your thoughts on music. If you haven't already, might i suggest listening to the album from start to finish? It might be bold of me to say, but it's comparable to pink floyds the wall in that it tells a narrative and the way each song transitions into each other greatly enhances the appreciation of the individual tracks and their place on the album.
in the video the guy died from what looks like cancer and is welcomed in to the after life by the black parade they give him a medal for going through all the pains he went through in life! and they sing that the people he left behind will carry on not to worry and his weary widow marches on! and then he goes off to the next stage!
Idk if anyone commented this but when you mentioned the band reminds you of the 70s, the frontman Gerard Way describes the band as a mixture of Queen and Iron Maiden.
Not really new lore when you think about it, the black parade hearkens to Louisiana tradition of lively music for funeral processions, bringing a more positive attitude toward passing away.
I'm 11, and I'm into MCR, P!ATD, FOB, and other bands like that as well as (sort of off subject) Creepypasta. My dad said that he's for with it, seeing as HE USED TO LIKE THAT KIND IF STUFF AT MY AGE. He showed me Metallica and Led Zeppelin videos. I can't wait to show my kids this video, and Melanie Martinez, and pics of Creepypasta!
You should definitely watch heavydirtysoul live (from their official channel) by twenty one pilots! they are such a cool band and their music has cool messages and just put their all into their performances and music... or you could react to anything by them... great video by the way! i love mcr a lot, and i've even met one of their former members twice!!
+Margaret Maguire WHOA! Now THAT would be AWESOME! Very cool! And I shall check out your suggestions and do what I can- promise! Have a great day, a Merry Christmas, and a Very Happy New Year!
Hey, if you thought the new Adele stuff is great you should see the cover Anthony Vincent did recently. He did a 25 style cover of "Hello". It is very good and for the first time, he shows himself actually playing the music that goes with the cover.
+trendsetter74 I will have to check that out, thank you very much for the suggestion- I WILL get to it! That'll be awesome, watching him play his instruments!
Nice, i remember listening to this. :) Suggestions............ Panic at the Disco, " I write sins not tragedies" Offspring " Youre gonna go far kid" *beware explicit language unless you get a version that is edited* rats cant seem to find an edited with the video :( Marilyn Manson "Tainted Love" or "Personal Jesus" And finally, Skrillex "First of the Year" maybe watch them off camera, anyway, keep up the good work, You are one of the few I have followed. Came for PTX and stayed for the rest. Edit,,, Im all over tonight watching vids. A few others to check out if you run out. System of a Down "B.Y.O.B" or "Sugar" Rammstein " Du Hast" Prodigy " Firestarter" LOL, these are all decent songs i think may be a little out of your normal viewing habits. I listen to so much, heck nothing is out of bounds for me :)
+Chris Rubin Some of the groups I have never heard of, some of them it may surprise you to learn I already listen to and enjoy quite a lot :) My favorite Marilyn Manson album is Antichrist Superstar, btw ;) I do thank you so VERY much for this list of suggestions and trust me my friend when I say I WILL be watching and reacting to all of these, so keep watching :) Won;t be TONIGHT or TOMORROW but it IS going to happen as soon as I can :)
Me before watching video: I'm not going to cry.... ~hears G note~ Me: Dam it, I'm screwed ~cries~ After video: Pshhh, totally didn't cry..... ~hides tissues on floor~
+victoria DeCorte I agree- it is very sad :( I like their stuff. I shall check that song out as soon as I can, than kyou for watching, enjoying, and commenting!
Can you please react to 'Sing' or 'na na na' by My Chemical Romance if you haven't already? In my opinion those two songs deal with the topic of the stagnation of music which you talk about here and it will be nice to hear your thoughts on them.
That you like the sound and the song is really all I wanted. However, to be completely fair, this is definitely one of MCR's very best songs. They don't _all_ sound like this. Still, keep in mind, they're a very good band. Definitely worth listening to.
You have a very open mind with music and I thought that your reaction was lovely. My Chemical Romance has been a very influential band in my life that got me through rough times growing up, especially when I was in middle school. I still love them to this day.

No, don't say that. It will never die.
The black parade is dead, but we'll carry on.
My Chemical Romance is back
WELCOME BACK
The moment you pinpointed "Punk" I think is when you became a new favorite reactor for me. Great ear for noticing the old sound as well! This album is a concept album. Fucking beautiful. I'm not sure how old is video is, so I'm not sure how expanded your repertoire has gotten, but give it go if you haven't ❤️
I love how genuine and deep all of your reactions are. In my opinion, you are one of the best reaction channels on TH-cam. I'm definitely subscribing
And I thank you so very much for watching, enjoying, and commenting! Have a great day!

Wonderful reaction btw, glad I stumbled on this and glad u enjoyed MCR so much
please react to teenagers by my chemical romance
Yes!
The bolero-like intro and the middle "Do or die, you'll never break me, because the world will never take my heart etc" section is seriously channelling Queen. They performed this live with Brian May once. Needless to say, it was phenomenal. The video is on TH-cam.
My second favorite song by MCR, directly after Cancer. It's a great one. Just how it swells slowly from the beginning and gets steadily louder and grander... awesome stuff.
You are always so funny in your videos, and I love that! Plus, I can tell how much you enjoy yourself.
The older sound comes from the influence of bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, The Smiths, and The Misfits.
Don’t forget queen!
The song is about death. “Joining the Black Parade” is a metaphor for dying.
That was interesting. Not really my thing but I applaud the fact that your're willing to keep your mind open to new stuff. Sounds like you are starting to turn the corner on being sick. I hope that is the case. Marry Christmas, my friend.
+trendsetter74 I am feeling a TON better- my stomach is barely upset anymore, my stomach feels a LOT better, and my body doesn't have that "sick hurt" to it. It's a good thing! :D Take care my friend!
I always saw a strong Rock n Roll Animal by Lou Reed influence with this song and I’m so glad someone else picked up on their influences!!
wow, it was such a GREAT surprise for me that you saw my chemical romance! they are indeed amazing and you should hear more of them. such a strong and genuine band. react more to them if you want to, i would love to see! :-) great reaction, as always!

Love your willingness and open mindedness! Such a positive message.
Yup. He watched the Potato version.
His audio is messed up too so it might just be on his end. He probably watched the normal version
Video is about the concept where when you die there is someone who guides you and it can be a family member a friend etc who has died but in the character's case it's a parade because of the fond memory of his father taking him to see a marching band
Mr. NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer, you really look like my greatgrandfather who passed away last week. You also make me smile, because of how polite you are.
My chem. uses very in depth meaning in a way similar to poetry which creates feeling,overwelming meaning and expression ,which is absolutely beautiful
Black Parade = Death (Euphemism)
*EDIT: Love your vids, new sub here.*
I'M ADDICTED TO YOUR VIDEOS, it's been one hour and a half and I'm still here watching your videos it's 2:41 am and I can't stop 😂😂
Thank you very much! I hope you have a great day!!
top,mcr, dan howell, panic at the disco, they all go together with fangirls i guess
Please never compare MCR to TOP again. TOP is awful poppy garbage.
Matthew Mcsherry i never did but they share a fandom
I really wished they didn't lol
oi mate what about Phil lester
Jahkyah Winstøn phil too
it's the tenth anniversary of welcome to the black parade album
How i understand the song is, black parade is when people marches during your funeral in black and the medal represents a veteran. For me this is a song for the heroes of the country.
Really touching to see the multigenerational spirit of rock live on in My Chem. The references to Beatles/Queen were not missed by the reactor.
You should react to My Chemical Romance Ghost of you, the music video is really well done and it takes place in world war 1 or 2 I believe it might be world war 2.
+Brøken Heart Ghost of you is a really well done music video! It is also my favorite one :3
+Papyrus The Skeleton It is also my favorite ^.^
+Brøken Heart I will do that, thank you so much for the suggestion! I hope you have a great day!
+Papyrus The Skeleton I am really looking forward to this video!
Brøken Heart 3 Cheers For Sweet Revenge,Best Album Ever!
OMG I LOVE MCR
My chemical romance was my fav band when I was in the school.... I was so sad when they disbanded... :'c
but I still love their music.. MAMA and Teenagers are my fav songs
Same!
Ginny 2003 MCR songs are made to make people cry xD
+Kanna DM Helena and I'm not okay
you: welcome to the black parade by my chemical romance
me: YES YES YES CBJDWAWCGKLYGVDS
same😂😂 and PHANDOM!!
My friend dislikes the vocals of MCR, and, I just want to hurt her.
How do she even think that??
compared to other bands he's deep as fuck
Meghan Gracie....there's a thing called 'opinions.'
. There's also a thing called, "don't mess with my favourite band or I'll hurt you."
Meghan Gracie Touché. Although. that seems a little too far. Everyone has their preferences.
Welcome to the black parade, man
"I like the way how it sounds so far" Now I love you
+Soňa Tomčíková :D Thank you so much! Thank you for watching and enjoying- I am going to be watching and recording more MCR in the future so no fear! Take care, have a great day!
I'm subbed now, love your reaction.
The video is about that patient, the dead comes onto him like his strongest memory: A parade that he saw when he was a kid (The Black Parade).
You should watch The Ghost Of You by My Chemical Romance, I will love to see that.
+Xiomara Victoria Thank you very much for the information, that's cool, and thank you so very much for watching and enjoying! Thank you as well for the suggestion and I will be watching this as soon as I can. You take care and have a great upcoming New Year!
You need to know the pourpose of the album with the patient, too understand this!
You're awesome Sir NearlySeniorCitizen foreals your videos are awsome and your were right to feel how you felt about the song cancer. Thumbs Up!!!!!!!
I'm glad there is some older fellas out there that appreciate this kind of music.
I like to think I appreciate ANY good music :)
Can you please react to "Nananana" and "Teenagers" by My Chemical Romance please?? Thank you!
+Percy Jackson Forever!! It may take some time, i have a LOT of requests, but I will get to it as soon as I can! Take care!
I love you! MCR and Percy Jackson!
800 episodes later finally XD
My favourite My Chemical Romance song is actually The Ghost of You. But this song was the first one of theirs I heard.
+Masquerade as Sane I will have to check that one song out- I like their sound, I will hopefully like this one as well!
Awesome, I decided to subscribe as well, your videos are quite good.
+Masquerade as Sane Thank you so very much!
Yay, I love this song. I believe the video is about death and the Black Parade is all the people who have died. The father asked his son if he would be a good person and help people. Will he be strong and keep going, even when people tell him he can't?
Cause one day he isn't going to be around anymore, he's going to pass away and join all the other in that Black Parade. The lyrics also say, "Your memory will carry on." =]
Over all I believe both the song and video are lovely and a wonderful say to
Also in the video, their is a clip of a small group of people holding a sign saying "starved to death, in a land of plenty." Which could easily mean, we have so much food in the world, yet their are so many families who are still starving to death.
+pssnangel4 I REALLY like the interpretation you have given the song- it makes it quite awesome! It is an amazing thing. Take care my friend and have a GREAT holiday season!
If you want to learn about the video and how it was made and what it's about, then you should check out the making of the video here on TH-cam.
This song is a masterpiece. I can't get enough of it. I believe M.C.R. is an "Emo" band from what I understand? I absolutely love them!
I'm wearing my My Chemical Romance shirt right now.😂
Don't know if this was answered, but MCR used the Black Parade as a metaphor for death. The Black Parade album is basically an entire story about this man, the patient, who's dying of cancer, and of the Black Parade. Gerard Way, the vocalist, said in an interview that parades often harkened back to funerals (the New Orleans jazz funerals, processionals for deceased soldiers, etc.) so rather than have this spirit of whatever, Gerard thought it would be better to have something celebratory like a parade come at the moment of your death and lead you on to wherever you happen to be going.
Excellent videos, by the by. You're kinda like the grandfather I wish I had, if he were still alive. Keep on, sir. You're pretty awesome.
the g note... hit hard
NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer This Song Is About, Well So The Main Guy Who Is Singing (Guard Way) He Saw The Twin Towers Fall. So That's Why He Made It!
🎀M. A. C. Y.🎀 “Guards way”
From perspective it’s a part 1 of 4, alongside Cancer, The End and Dead
Every song in the album follows the same story though, but possibly not in order. I'd guess:
P has a happy childhood, with a notable experience of seeing a marching band with his father (Disenchanted/WttBP)
P's father dies (WttBP)
P joins the army much to his mother's dismay. (Mama)
He leaves the army after realising its cruel nature (Teenagers)
He splits up with his girlfriend (I Don't Love You)
He leads a reckless lifestyle (The Sharpest Lives)
He gets the news he has two weeks to live (Dead!)
He starts wondering what his legacy will be (How I Disappear)
He starts chemotherapy, gaining a reputation for joking around with the doctors and nurses. (Cancer/Blood)
He dies, leaving his siblings and aunt behind, experiencing the Parade as he enters the afterlife (Sleep/WttBP)
He goes to hell (House of Wolves)
P starts telling his story to the audience from the afterlife (The End)
Famous Last Words is a weird one. It takes place just after Cancer as he tries to make a last stand, but it's left open as to whether or not he's successful. If he isn't, he dies and goes to hell. If he was successful though then everything after Blood is simply what he imagines would have happened had he died.
As Mother War is also shown in the Black Parade MV, we can guess she also died sometime between Mama and WttBP.
MCR IS LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE MCR SO MUCH!!!!!! Im so crafting right now
If you get the reference I love you!!
+Percy Jackson Forever!! I bet I get it wrong, the reference. Is that like "Don't cry, craft?"
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer lol yup. But instead of saying, "Don't cry....... Craft." You could also say 'crafting' which is basically another word for crying. Lol I'm a HUGE MCR fan.
+Percy Jackson Forever!! Coolio! Thank you for the info and have a GREAT day!
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer Lol you too!
+Percy Jackson Forever!! YES!! MCR and Phan for life!
I haven't heard their music in awhile! I miss it!
I only just stumbled upon your videos, but im already a big fan and appreciate your thoughts on music. If you haven't already, might i suggest listening to the album from start to finish? It might be bold of me to say, but it's comparable to pink floyds the wall in that it tells a narrative and the way each song transitions into each other greatly enhances the appreciation of the individual tracks and their place on the album.
I'm glad this exists.
We'll carry on!!!! 🖤 #mcrmy #mychemicalromance
in the video the guy died from what looks like cancer and is welcomed in to the after life by the black parade they give him a medal for going through all the pains he went through in life! and they sing that the people he left behind will carry on not to worry and his weary widow marches on! and then he goes off to the next stage!
Idk if anyone commented this but when you mentioned the band reminds you of the 70s, the frontman Gerard Way describes the band as a mixture of Queen and Iron Maiden.
The black parade was base back in centuries ago they use to march through the towns .
I really love your channel man, you place a smile on my face seeing your reaction videos, you should react to MCRs "Headfirst for halos"
personally, I think that the song and its video is supposed to be a metaphor for the afterlife
I cant believe I opted to get G noted
Did you know you are amazing?
Ps here is another fact if you were wondering the album came out September 23, 2006
Nick DoubleN September!
It came out on October 23 actually
Professional Fangirl ayy lmao it came out 2 days after I was born if you mean 2005
Professional Fangirl nvm it came out in 2006, when I was 1 year and 2 days :}
Not really new lore when you think about it, the black parade hearkens to Louisiana tradition of lively music for funeral processions, bringing a more positive attitude toward passing away.
I'm 11, and I'm into MCR, P!ATD, FOB, and other bands like that as well as (sort of off subject) Creepypasta. My dad said that he's for with it, seeing as HE USED TO LIKE THAT KIND IF STUFF AT MY AGE. He showed me Metallica and Led Zeppelin videos. I can't wait to show my kids this video, and Melanie Martinez, and pics of Creepypasta!
If you like Steampunk things, you should check out Abney Park and Steam Powered Giraffe. They're pretty neat.
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer this was made in 2006
You should definitely watch heavydirtysoul live (from their official channel) by twenty one pilots! they are such a cool band and their music has cool messages and just put their all into their performances and music... or you could react to anything by them... great video by the way! i love mcr a lot, and i've even met one of their former members twice!!
+Margaret Maguire WHOA! Now THAT would be AWESOME! Very cool! And I shall check out your suggestions and do what I can- promise! Have a great day, a Merry Christmas, and a Very Happy New Year!
Hey, if you thought the new Adele stuff is great you should see the cover Anthony Vincent did recently. He did a 25 style cover of "Hello". It is very good and for the first time, he shows himself actually playing the music that goes with the cover.
+trendsetter74 I will have to check that out, thank you very much for the suggestion- I WILL get to it! That'll be awesome, watching him play his instruments!
I'VE BEEN G-NOTED!!!!
Also, who's happy to see MCR back?
Nice, i remember listening to this. :)
Suggestions............
Panic at the Disco, " I write sins not tragedies"
Offspring " Youre gonna go far kid" *beware explicit language unless you get a version that is edited* rats cant seem to find an edited with the video :(
Marilyn Manson "Tainted Love" or "Personal Jesus"
And finally, Skrillex "First of the Year"
maybe watch them off camera, anyway, keep up the good work, You are one of the few I have followed. Came for PTX and stayed for the rest.
Edit,,,
Im all over tonight watching vids. A few others to check out if you run out.
System of a Down "B.Y.O.B" or "Sugar"
Rammstein " Du Hast"
Prodigy " Firestarter"
LOL, these are all decent songs i think may be a little out of your normal viewing habits. I listen to so much, heck nothing is out of bounds for me :)
+Chris Rubin Some of the groups I have never heard of, some of them it may surprise you to learn I already listen to and enjoy quite a lot :) My favorite Marilyn Manson album is Antichrist Superstar, btw ;) I do thank you so VERY much for this list of suggestions and trust me my friend when I say I WILL be watching and reacting to all of these, so keep watching :) Won;t be TONIGHT or TOMORROW but it IS going to happen as soon as I can :)
the video is about the patient, and his induction to the black parade or "the parade of death"
+Sergio Lopez It's a sad song, but what can you do about death? Nothin', Thank you so much for the info- it helps add even MORE depth to the song!
I die 0.001 % when I hear the G-Note
Like all good songs, it sounds great on its own... But it's part of a rock opera-y thing so its video makes more sense in context
Hello it's 2018 and it's 3 weeks before Christmas and thank you for this reaction!!!.....
Me before watching video: I'm not going to cry....
~hears G note~
Me: Dam it, I'm screwed ~cries~
After video: Pshhh, totally didn't cry..... ~hides tissues on floor~
+Percy Jackson Forever!! :D I know the feeling. Many times I don't know that I am going to cry until BOOM- my eyes tart to leak.
omg this guy is so awesome 😀😀
Nearly Senior Citizen aha love it
And that's how you get hooked grampa
fun fact: the drummer actually got 2nd (or 3rd) degree burns during this music video
correction it was in Famous Last Words
oh my god bob:(
Aww Bob :,(
Gerard did as well woops
Actually bob and Gerard got it in famous last words
teenagers is another really good song by them. pretty sad they aren't getting back together.
+victoria DeCorte I agree- it is very sad :( I like their stuff. I shall check that song out as soon as I can, than kyou for watching, enjoying, and commenting!
The beggining punches my heart
even hes 5x my age i like this guy ALOT!
Oh my gosh. I am tearing.
7:51
OMG HE GETS ME! HAHAHAHA
Please do Disturbed "sound of silence" and Bad Wolves "Zombie"...you know the originals
Can you please react to 'Sing' or 'na na na' by My Chemical Romance if you haven't already? In my opinion those two songs deal with the topic of the stagnation of music which you talk about here and it will be nice to hear your thoughts on them.
you sir are a legend love ur vids
Check out Helena by My Chemical Romance, trust me, it's what got me into the band.
That you like the sound and the song is really all I wanted.
However, to be completely fair, this is definitely one of MCR's very best songs. They don't _all_ sound like this. Still, keep in mind, they're a very good band. Definitely worth listening to.
This was great just subbed
I'm sorry but the second I heard that piano I started crying this song makes me cry sO M U CH
This song is love and my life no joke even if its old its life
i haven't watched the video yet and my eyes already turned to waterfalls ...
I LOVE my chemical romance :) good taste
+K . la Thank you Glad I was able to help and glad someone suggested it so now I like them as well :) Take care and have a great holiday season!
+NearlySeniorCitizen Yetagamer you too :) and merry Christmas!
Is this old Bob Bryar?
They are Back Together.
