Gerard got that perfect vocals for the emo genre. That gritty, hopelessly-ish, pseudo-screaming voice but still remaining in tune. You just can feel his despair on every song, especially if you see his face while singing. OMG, there's no one I can think of that comes close to that. Two other notable vocalists just behind Gerard are Anthony Green and Craig Owens. They got that grit going, but their voices are too thin.
Just imagine Gee singing while Ray plays piano and backing vocals, then Mikey comes and add a little bass to the harmony, then you see Frank in a suit, dancing with Helena and then her dying. Gerard starts to cry while singing and making it more emotional.
2:55 that part always brings a tear to my eye Especially seeing the music video, You can just feel Gerard's trying to hold his tears in while still giving an epic performance

this year i found out mcr i heard this song first time at march, i liked that but not a lot, after my grandpa's funeral i liked that a little more, but i heard The Light Behind your eyes mostly. At June my grandmother died and i heard Helena one more time. Every time I hear both of them reminds me everything. And now, I found out this version...when i listen to it I fall into deep depression. I need some good comments :\
I’m two years too late but you said you wanted a good comment and I couldn’t ignore it.I’m really sorry for your losses😞 Music is a wonderful way to heal and express yourself, so take advantage of it! I hope your doing well💜
DECEMBER 2021... I am listening to this now. I was in gradeschool when this came out. Now I am a mother, time flies so fast. The good old days went by, it feels like im still living in the past. Guess theres nothing wrong with visiting memory lane. Sometimes I just feel like I'm stuck. I miss my childhood so bad.... maybe its never too late to live again. Maybe being 27 isnt bad... maybe I dont need to worry about turning 30 because I still havent figured out my life.. ugh! Sorry, I just feel down and depressed now. Needed to get this out of my chest....... thanks MCR for making my traumatic past a bitter sweet tragedy that I always cherish even up until now. Words cannot describe what i am feeling.. goodness i need to stop typing cause i am crying! Dang it! Grow up Scarlett! Time to move on..... 🖤🖤🖤

OMG! I think this is the first song of ALL TIME that made me cry!!! This piano version is so full of emotions, it is incredible!! I love it so much, especially at 0,75x (it’s even more sad that way)! 🖤
Kelsey Stone I discovered this song at a really tough time in my life. I found an MP3 player on a public bus, at like 9 at night (iPod was just starting to take over as the default music player, so cheap MP3 players were everywhere). The only songs on it were Feel Good Inc and Helena, and my heart was so heavy that when I listened to it, I just broke down into tears and lost myself on repeat so deeply that I missed my stop. It was worth the walk to feel something that strongly and thst grounding.
Ok, so here are the chords: C#mi, E, E/G#, A, C#mi, B C#mi, E, E/G#, A, C#mi, B E/G#, A, C#mi, B E/G#, A, C#mi, B E, B, B#dim7, C#mi, Ami6, E C#mi, E, E/G#, A, C#mi, B E/G#, A, C#mi, B E/G#, A, C#mi, B E, B, B#dim7, C#mi, Ami6, E E, B, B#dim7, C#mi, Ami6, E C#mi, B, E, B C#mi, A, B C#mi, A, B C#mi, A, B E, B, B#dim7, C#mi, Ami6, E E, B, B#dim7, C#mi, Ami6, E
The most beautiful concert would be singers from multiple bands singing altogether, Gerard Way, Corey Taylor, Benjamin Burnley, Evanescence, Disturbed, etc
I want this version played at my funeral. Otherwise i'm not dying

The backing vocals being much more present in the pre-chorus fucking tears me to shreds. This is so goddamn beautiful
Ray's vocals need more attention
This version is a bit more painful than the original😢(For me😅)
*I'm holding back my tears*
Check out the acoustic version. The one that’s outside white gees hair gleaming red in the sunlight😂😭

This is so hauntingly beautiful! How does this not have more views!!!?
Just imagine Gee singing while Ray plays piano and backing vocals, then Mikey comes and add a little bass to the harmony, then you see Frank in a suit, dancing with Helena and then her dying. Gerard starts to cry while singing and making it more emotional.

For some reason, i can feel the raw emotions in this version. I love it.
Because Gerard was sobbing while he was singing this.

We are so far from you
Burning on just like a match you strike to incinerate
The lives of everyone you know
And what's the worst you take (worst you take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (blade you stain)
Well, I've been holding on tonight
What's the worst that I can say?
Things are better if I stay
So long and goodnight
So long and goodnight
Came a time
When every star fall brought you to tears again
We are the very hurt you sold
And what's the worst you take (worst you take)
From every heart you break (heart you break)
And like the blade you stain (blade you stain)

Are you near me?
Can we pretend
To leave and then
We'll meet again
When both our cars collide.

Anyone else here cause you had your heart torn out whilst it was still beating?
0:29
that note tho
This will be a fit for my love story mhm...
The voices need reverb but damn this is awesome
ha. there is some extreme reverb in this.
add a little reverb on the vocals and turn up the volume a little on the piano
I think it will be better
*_Porfavor haz un tutorial de piano!!_*
