New My Chemical Romance Video - "Welcome To The Black Parade"

Is this a parody of something we don't know? Or are the kids sincerely moved by this?

Dude, whatever. It's SO a political commentary on how once oil is all gone we're gonna face a plague of epic proportions; sort of like the black death in the middle ages where... oh who am I kidding. It's just utter shit. I seriously LOLed at the hand stretching thing. Heh.

at least they aren't rewriting the same mall-punk record over and over...

that being said, this song is sort of growing on me. the video does absolutely nothing for me though.

Gerard Way looks like Dolores O'Riordan from the Cranberries in that video. Androgyny for the mall-emo girls?

I appreciate that they try something new in the beginning (even if it sounds like Queen if Freddie Mercury had Strep Throat), but then it directly goes into the mall punk sound again and they lose it all.

I'm not feeling the video, but hopefully it will grow on me. The videos for their previous album were what attracted me to this band in the first place.

I'm not big on the mall-punk section in the middle, but I love the intro and the chorus at the end.

The lead singer would seem so much more attractive if he: did something about that hair, went outside and got a tan, stopped stealing my make-up, burned those clothes, dyed his hair a natural color, changed his personality, stopped looking like he is on crack, stop weird movement, had messy bed hair.

Other than that, he is your average guy...yeah...

Before I read the comments I was thinking this was some kind of unholy spawn between Green Day and Queen. Seems like many folks agree.

Often on these comment boards I usually agree to disagree with people on certain points, but I have to respectfully say to the folks that think MCR are trying something new, you're dead wrong.

i really like the song. it registers quite well on radio and i also wonder how well they'll pull it off live. for me, the pre-VMA performance wasn't enough of a basis to judge from but i thought it was great. this video is cliche though -- but i've always loved lukas haas so i like it! this will definitely debut on TRL at no. 1 and stay in the countdown until it retires.

Yeah, the beginning minute or so gives you hope that maybe, just maybe they're going to play some music that's not THAT crappy, but then they jump right back into that tired pop-punk thing, and somehow, you aren't surprised.

But whatever, that video sucked. Downright Bono-rific.

MCR are a bunch of arrogant retards. No offence to their fans who have been mislead. Yeah i hear the way to thick green day infulance and you cant say thats just because they admire them or anything. MCR's main fanbase is niave teenage girls who's love for the band over rides their love for the music. If american Idiot was Green days Sell out moment then this is MCRS sell out album. It is nothing new its just the same old thing rolling over with a different set of poster boys this time. Green Day however use music to inspire and music to them actually means something. What does any song on this album do? apart from inspire people to make a better record than this piece of shit?

I think the the Cd is good. Some songs are better than other like on every cd. I dont think there trying to sound like anything. I think they just wrote. There three cheers cd was freaking great every song on it was. not Every cd a band puts will be perfect... There a young band...

saying mcr sounds like queen is bullshit...mercury would roll over in his grave if he heard that. i dont like this song but the album has some gems...it might win me over. it'll never be my favorite album though, kinda disappointing.

This is the kind of song that makes me mad.
It starts off pretty okay, and then they have to go and just shoot the life out of it.

so now i just replay the beginning with the screaming part over and over...

It's ok, into's good but the main riff needs some work. "A" for effort. You sort have to find your own meaning inside the music and how the lyrics relate to you. But if you have no feelings and your being a pathetic dick to try and impress your friends, you'll hate this song.

Okay, I feel like I lost IQ points reading this stupid commentary on MCR. So now I have to comment.

First point: all you you little kiddies who think you are majorly HXC need to shut your goddamned mouths about his hair and the costumes. I'm really ashamed to be 14 and call myself a part of a generation where people can't get past physical appearance and appreciate music. I thought this was about MCR's new music. If you want to make stupid comments about clothes, hair, make-up, etc., go be a fashion critic.

Second, all this "WTF THIS IZ SO GAY ZOMG" needs to stop. I may be blatantly ripping off Pete Wentz here, but when exactly DID gay become a synonym for shitty?

Now I will move onto the video. No, I'm not a huge fan of the song or video. The song is pretty boring in my opinion. The beginning piano bit seems cheesy and it's too long. But the end gets it moving along and redeems the song. The video, I have mixed feelings about. I really like Sam Beard or whatever his name is, his work with Green day was great, and I think he brought that into "Parade". The imagery was pretty cool, the costumes went well the with theme and the special effects weren't bad like they are in alot of videos. However, the "gray skies and gray faces" thing is a little tired. I would've liked to have seen something a bit more Helena-ish, the polished filming with bright colors and constast and stuff kind of gives things a more surreal look.

However, I know I'm almost a month late on this, but for those who haven't heard the CD yet and are still worried that Parade is a big reflection of the overall effort, worry no more. The Black Parade is insane. MCR may not have made some major leap, but it's defnitely a big step in a new direction. They took what they accomplished with Bullets and Three Cheers and brought new elements into it. I personally like it better than Three Cheers, they stopped with the synthy thing, let Gerard sing in his own range and stopped cleaning up the guitars so much. It's got some poppier stuff on it, although alot of tracks hold true to their roots. I don't think any real fans will be disappointed with it.

ya man jim bob makes a good point, if all u little kids are just going to comment on the hair and the style then just go be a fashion critic. And by the way, why is it always appearance that trips ppl on, it is the music that matters not external looks. By the way the video rocks, and they did an amazing job. They are the best and i love them

LOL

If your going to make fun of a music video on the internet do some research first!

The Black Parade is a concept album based on the life and death of 'The Patient'. There is a theory that death comes to you as your most vivid memory, 'The Patient's most vivid memory is his father taking him to see a Marching band when he was younger. Go watch the video again and stop being so close minded.

Although I do have to agree the video is probably one of the worst they've ever made, even the video for 'Vampires will never hurt you' is better.

Elanor does not make a good point. Admitting she doesn't like it and then try to look at it from a 'real fans' perspective. Liking a bands music simply because it's by that band does not make you a real fan, a real fan would be able to stand up and say "I don't like it."

And also Gerard looks great, okay? Well i'm not like one of those fangirls who are just like "OMG GERARD YOURE SO HOT!" I mean they look great and all but the music is really what counts first. They write inspiring music and its just awesome, if you think their music doesn't have a point then PLEASE do everyone a BIG favor and just go away and live your SICK life somewhere else or you probably don't even have a life. But whatever just go away and don't even bother to insult My Chem. You just don't even know what you're EVEN talking about...

she has one line in one song. they wanted someone who has been thro a lot, not someone just to promote the cd.
this is about a man that dies and death comes for him in his fondest memorie of childhood when his dad took him to the city to see a marchingband. My Chemical Romance plays the part of a crazy band telling this man hes dead and that hes gonna be alright. i've only been listening for 2 mounths but i luv it. i have the black parade cd and listen to the older stuff. they aren't telling you to smash stuff, cutt urself, don't talk bad about women in fact they are promoting the complete oppiset. they promote self-expression in positive ways. before you hate a band look up facts about them.

///to all u haters out there who bag on mcr for being emo or vampire goth, i find it realy sad that u have enough nothing in ur life to spend time labling things...and besides, wat's the alternitive, listening to some explisit rap song that berades women and make guys look like rich ass holes..... at least this song makes u THINK all the other songs lay the message right out out for you...and then it's like wats the point of listening to it...well, these songs, give u a hidden message, one where you have to sit there and think " i wonder wat the artist was thinging or feeling when he or she wrote all this" that's wat makes music woth listening too\\\

there is so much wrong about this. ok lets start at the beggining. insulting a band for being posuers or caring about their fashion more than there music maybe once makes us have no life... right.
mcr is the only alternative to rap? how about real music that isnt mass produced for money rather than artistic merits, like real punk rather than emo that claims to be "pop-punk". disgusting to even imagine them as punk.

what were they thinking when they wrote this? well really, what were they thinking?? apart from hey lets write a pop song to make money is there anything else.

i am a proud my chemical romance HATER and im raelly not in a minority.

Personally I think they are bloody marvelous and i have actually seen them live twice and they were incredible, the respect that every person in the mosh had for gerard was amazing they did whatever they told (which was by the way take three steps back cause people are getting trampled and how proud he was of the amount of people wearing black and not bashing each other.) MCR are amazing according to me and have a refreshingly original outlook on the way they do things
