My Chemical Romance Band • Page 574

I didn't like Na Na Na when I was 16 or 17 when it came out and I was wrong

 

There were a few of us that loved it, haha.

 

I remember the reception being a bit muted. Wasn’t a fan of NaNaNa when it came out either but I had built it up to be a bit different from the (awesome) teasers so the hype was probably just too high

 

Love the Fallon performance of it. Wish there was a higher def video out there

 

Na Na Na is okay. Don't love it, don't hate it

I think I just don't love when the vocal melody is basically the same as the guitar melody if that makes sense

 

I find Na Na Na so overly catchy it would be hard to not like. I'm pretty sure I accidentally ripped off the main melody when I was trying to come up with a guitar part.

 

the kids from yesterday brought me to tears when they performed it

summertime is a beautiful song

na na na is great as well

 

I haaaaaaated DD when it came out, like it kinda killed my enjoyment of the band as a whole for a while to be completely honest lol. just where I was at with my tastes at the time and being a rather edgy teenager, I just completely balked at the brighter and poppier sonic direction and the whole aesthetic of the era. after the lengthy wait it was pretty much the exact opposite of what I wanted from the band at the time. I eventually went back to it in 2022 in preparation for seeing them and I did end up appreciating it more but I still am not a fan of most of the first half of the record. for whatever reason I start to enjoy the album a lot more from Party Poison onwards. I still wouldn’t put most of the songs on that back half up with their best work, with the exception being Summertime, but I do think it’s an enjoyable listen.

on another note, I picked up Hesitant Alien on vinyl from a record store a few months back and that was quite a delight to revisit honestly. I personally like it more than DD and probably CW as well.

 

went to new jersey vs the world tour last night with saves the day & senses fail. at the end of the night, members of both bands came out and played helena, it was a cool way to end the night!

 

Kids From Yesterday is absolutely a top tier My Chem song

 

...why did Sing make Glenn Beck mad?

 

Because he's a Republican and they are named My Chemical Romance, so he decided to pick apart the lyrics of their most inoffensive song to tell other Republicans that what their kids are listening to is evil lol

 

also unrelated but remembered this

 

Bob Bryar, Former My Chemical Romance Drummer, Dead at 44

 

Jesus

 

whoa thats crazy, i was revisiting three cheers JUST the other day and was literally thinking how lucky of a musician he was to be in mcr at the perfect time, didn't have to record their breakthrough album but got to be in all the videos and promo for it, then be on their biggest album, tour on it, make all that $ if he signed the right checks, and then he was done. crazy he passed away so young. RIP Bob.

 

Jesus that's awful, way too young

 

Holy shit. Was not expecting to read that catching up on this thread.

 

Whoa

 

Damn. RIP.

 

Deeply sad. Some of my favorite drum parts of all time are on TBP, and Dsnger Days has always felt a little lesser specifically without Bob's drumming. I always wondered why he stepped away.

 

Rest in peace, Bob.

 

He sucked though irl

 

he wrote his parts on 5 tracks on danger days

i know 2 for sure were on bulletproof heart and na na na

 

Holy shit. He wasn’t found for nearly a month
