    "This was not a song this was an anthem,"
    Every time my bros went out to drink, they mostly wanted to go singing too. And when they get super drunk, they told me they get to be singing their national anthem.
    I don't know what song they meant. But around the time I came along, after an hour or two, before calling it a night, they told me it's time for the national anthem.
    And, what do you know? It was MCR's Welcome To The Black Parade.
    By the time the piano started playing, everyone in that room gave their versions of approval to the song, even I did too because I love this song. Most of us stood up, and we were raising our hands up and nodding our heads along with the melody.
    We all get to sing that song together, sharing just one microphone. There were more than five of us. Some were standing in front of the screen, others were at the back but were still excited. And we were jumping and singing our lungs and hearts out, shouting because some of us can't reach that high. Even one of the descent singers with us was having a hard time with the song he was kneeling and crouching lower and lower as the song progressed.
    By the end of the song, everyone was panting and laughing, some, or all of us, having sore throats.
    Some of us would often refuse to sing, but every time the 'national anthem' hits, we all just went nuts.
    Music does bring people together. And to me, Welcome To The Black Parade really is an anthem.

    MCR was and still is one of the best bands of the 2000's, the lyrics of their songs are so powerful and helped a lot of teens with drugs, anxiety and depression problems. They formed in 2001 because of 9/11, the singer Gerard Way was heading to work when he saw the airplanes heading to the tower, he started writing songs and one of them which was the first song ever written by him was "Skylines and Turnstiles" which talks about 9/11 and it's from the first album I Brought You My Bulllets, You Brought Me Your Love. The band has only 5 members, Gerard Way on lead vocals, Frank Iero on lead guitar and some backing vocals, Raymond Toro on rhythm guitar and backing vocals, Mikey Way (Gerard's brother) on Bass guitar and Matt Pelissier but then he left and Bob Bryar joined the band. They have only 4 other albums like Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, The Black Parade, Danger Days and Conventional Weapons. All of their albums are amazing and has stories on it but Conventional Weapons and I Brought You My Bulllets You Brought Me Your Love which only talks about anxiety, depression and 9/11. The band broke up on March 22 of 2013 and the members of the band worked on solo projects, Frank has 3 bands Leathermøuth, Death Spells and Frank Iero and The Future Violents, Gerard worked on his comic The Umbrella Academy which has a netflix series and has an album called Hesitant Alien, Mikey worked with his band Electric Century and Ray made a solo album. They came back as a band in 2019 and I love how the band is remembered til this day after 6 years of inactivity. Songs you need to try: Mama, I Never Told You What I Do For A Living, Helena, House Of Wolves, Sleep, Honey This Mirror Isn't Big Enough For The Both Of Us, Skylines and Turnstiles, Vampire Money, Vampires Will Never Hurt You, Boy Division, Hang Em High, The Jetset Life Is Gonna Kill You and Destroya.
