This is basically the emo Bohemian Rhapsody. The first piano note of the song is iconic and immediately recognizable. It will remain an anthem in this genre for decades to come.
@@TeaDrinker3000 Nah. As a big fan of both, I see more poeple singing along to this with all the words known. With JOS, a majority of people only know patches of words, if they know it at all.
hell, i'm a grown man who missed out on MCR in high school, and it still brings me to tears to this day. (wasted my teenage years listening to weird pretentious shit instead)
8 months till 60. Seen many concerts in my life. Hands down August 26th 2022 in Raleigh in the floor MCR was all time best. Walked out with that concert high and still have it in November.
This is not just a song, it's an Anthem! The Black Parade is a rock opera centering around the character of "The Patient". It is about his passage out of life and the memories he has of it. "The Patient" dies and death comes for him in the form of a parade. This is based on singer Gerard Way's notion of death appearing to a person in the form of their fondest memory, in this case seeing a marching band as a child
This is such a classic song. It’s going to be one of those oldies our kids will probably know about much like how the old 80’s and 70’s hits were drilled into our heads at a young age 😂 The old 2000’s hits were amazing.
Thank you - great reaction. Fun Fact - the lead singer (Gerard Way) wrote The Umbrella Academy (netflix massive hit). This was a massive "concept" album for the band and follow "The Patient" as he learns of his disease (Cancer) and his subsequent regrets and recalls from his life (including Teenagers !) Such a great album from start to end. Well worth a listen for all ages (even from a 50-yr old who is posting)
@@EricHitsDrums Incorrect. The actor in this video is Lukas Haas (Inception, The Revenant) and Elliot is Henry Thomas (The Haunting of Hill House, The Fall of the House of Usher).
I’d also throw in I’m Not Okay, This Isn’t A Fashion Statement, It’s A Fucking Deathwish, Skylines And Turnstiles, The Sharpest Lives, Destroya, maybe even Save Yourself, I’ll Hold Them Back
Gerard nails the vocals live. Just saw them at Riot Fest in Chicago with 100,000 people singing along to every song. lol Great energy from start to finish. i walked away knowing I had just witnessed one of the greatest live bands of all-time.
"Are you my Mummy?" Interestingly, that episode has kind of an optimism in the face of bleak horror that matches this song. "Just this once, everybody lives!"
When she sang "We'll carry on", it just hit me differently. To people who had emotional ties to this song, this ain't just a banger, GWay is our messiah.
Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world will never take my heart Go and try, you'll never break me We want it all, we wanna play this part I won't explain or say I'm sorry I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scars Give a cheer for all the broken Listen here, because it's who we are Just a man, I'm not a hero Just a boy, who had to sing this song Just a man, I'm not a hero I don't care
I saw them in concert at least 4 times. Never disappointed. Also, angels and airwaves is a great band as well. Their lead singer Tom delonge was originally from Blink 182.
FUN FACT: The A&A logo is based off of the square and compus from Freemasonry FUN FACT #2: My father is a Mason and that makes Tom Delonge my dad's "brother" which makes Tom my uncle in a sorta way
AHH! i'm so excited to see that you're finally reacting to some MCR :D this song is such a classic, too! i think you should check out: Famous Last Words, The Ghost of You, and I'm Not Okay (I Promise)
The woman wearing the mask is Mother War - a personification of war itself- The Patient used to be a soldier and he recons with her and his actions as a soldier at the end of his life. So TECHnically that doctor who recall isn't unwarranted!
Just discovered your channel and I've been enjoying your reactions to some of my favorite songs. But you won my subscription for that Doctor Who reference (btw it was an episode from Christopher Eccleston's season)
If you check a video of this song live, check out the live version that features Brian May from Queen. It’s incredible! And also, you need to check out the band Blink-182. You’ll love them!
just so you know teenagers is on the same album as this song, also from this album, check out Famous Last Words, the video is like a sequel to this one
1:34 "Grab yourself a beverage." Me: **reaches for my glass** Me: **sees that it's empty** "Preferably one that isn't empty." Me: How tf did you know? 😂
You should look up the full album to get the whole story. Because this is the ending of a sad and depressing story. Keeping things short: this is a rock opera, which it means that every song of the album is one part of the story, wich this is the gran finale to that story. BTW this is a story about a cancer patient that unfortunately(or fortunately it depends on the point of view of the things) perished to the illness
One of the great Genre Hymns Rock: Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody Hard Rock: Guns 'N Roses - Rocket Queen Pop Punk: Green Day - Jesus of Suburbia Emo / Post-Hardcore: My Chemical Romance - Welcome to the Black Parade Folk Metal: Arkona - Na Moey Zemle
Yess try to react to something of their previous album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, it's a bit more punky but it's the best if you ask me I recommend the songs Helena and To the End
The black parade is a concept album about a guy dying from cancer in a hospital. In the story, when you die you go into your favorite memory anthe character's favorite memory was when he was a kid, his dad took him to a parade.
This is one of the main songs that inspired me to start learning piano lol been practicing for like 3 weeks now, but I have heard this song a long time ago I would recommend teenagers but you’ve already heard it that was my first song by them lol but for sure listen to these “I don’t love you”,”Helena”,”famous last words”,and “I’m not okay” another good one is “ghost of you” and “dead” “mama” as well
[Intro] When I was a young boy, my father Took me into the city to see a marching band He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be The savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?" He said, "Will you defeat them, your demons And all the non-believers, the plans that they have made? Because one day, I'll leave you a phantom To lead you in the summer to join the black parade" When I was a young boy, my father Took me into the city to see a marching band He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be The savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?" [Verse 1] Sometimes, I get the feeling she's watching over me And other times, I feel like I should go And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets And when you're gone, we want you all to know [Chorus] We'll carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on, we'll carry on And in my heart, I can't contain it The anthem won't explain it [Verse 2] A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams Your misery and hate will kill us all So paint it black and take it back, and let's shout it loud and clear Defiant to the end, we hear the call [Chorus] To carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on, we'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches [Bridge] On and on, we carry through the fears (Oh, ha, ha) Disappointed faces of your peers (Oh, ha, ha) Take a look at me, 'cause I could not care at all [Breakdown] Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world will never take my heart Go and try, you'll never break me We want it all, we wanna play this part I won't explain or say I'm sorry I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar And give a cheer for all the broken Listen here, because it's who we are Just a man, I'm not a hero Just a boy who had to sing this song Just a man, I'm not a hero I don't care [Chorus] We'll carry on, we'll carry on And though you're dead and gone, believe me Your memory will carry on, you'll carry on And though you're broken and defeated Your weary widow marches on [Outro] Do or die, you'll never make me Because the world will never take my heart Go and try, you'll never break me We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on) Do or die, you'll never make me (We'll carry on) Because the world will never take my heart (We'll carry on) Go and try, you'll never break me (We'll carry) We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)
So I know you really like Ronnie Radke and Falling in Reverse, and you might be familiar with his first band Escape the Fate... But here's how this all comes together! Ronnie and Escape the Fate actually won a battle of the bands contest hosted by... You guessed it ... My Chemical Romance! That's how Ronnie got his start! It's fun how it all comes together! Great reaction and I can't believe you hadn't heard this before!
There's a cover version of this song that was dropped a week or two ago that I really love. Violet Orlandi, Lauren Babic, Halocene, and Audra Miller from First To Eleven did an incredible job with this. I really love if you would react to them.
The reason the black parade is showing themselves as a parade is because "The Patient" who is dying, is having his happiest moment flash before his eyes before death. The Parade he went to with his father. The parade is ushering him to his death.
Not related to the song but I really want to feel again where I heard Disenchanted the first time Edit: Hey maybe you can react to Disenchanted? It will break your heart.
To explain it, Gerard Way (lead singer) expresses his belief that death comes in the form of your fondest memory. The album is best listened from beginning to end, the patient is dying and on top of his coming to terms with his impending death, we come to the Black Parade where his fondest memory was when his father took him to a parade.
THEYRE BACK BABYYY. I get to see them in October and im so excited. They're one of my favorite bands from my teenage years and I never got to see them live.
This is basically the emo Bohemian Rhapsody. The first piano note of the song is iconic and immediately recognizable. It will remain an anthem in this genre for decades to come.
Ironically Queen is a huge influence for them too.
And Brian May played this with them also at reading 2011
Disagree, it's the emo national anthem. The emo Bohemian Rhapsody is Jesus Of Suburbia (both songs have a 5 act structure).
@@TeaDrinker3000
Nah. As a big fan of both, I see more poeple singing along to this with all the words known. With JOS, a majority of people only know patches of words, if they know it at all.
emo bohemian rhapsody song is American Football - Never Meant
Ghost of you is a great song by these guys..takes me back hearing this again
The mv is also one of the best mvs I've seen. Really impressive!
That first note never fails to make emo and goth girls everywhere sob uncontrollably. Fantastic pickup line all on its own.
Just girls? xD Lol but in all seriousness you're not wrong. I never won't get chills hearing this song
hell, i'm a grown man who missed out on MCR in high school, and it still brings me to tears to this day. (wasted my teenage years listening to weird pretentious shit instead)
The first note gives me insta goosebumps 😂
The album this song is on is totally worth a listen or better yet watch Wendigoon's analysis on the album. It actually is a very emotional story
8 months till 60. Seen many concerts in my life. Hands down August 26th 2022 in Raleigh in the floor MCR was all time best. Walked out with that concert high and still have it in November.

This is such a classic song. It’s going to be one of those oldies our kids will probably know about much like how the old 80’s and 70’s hits were drilled into our heads at a young age 😂

He also made the character peni parker from into the spider verse
plus the guy in the hospital bed played Elliot in E.T.. Just a random fact no one needs.
@anomaly4d899 dang i actually didn't know that. That's a pretty cool fact

"I'll wait for the chorus to see if I've heard the song before"
First note hits
Me: she doesn't know this song.
we're officially old :(
@@TheMan21892 Yeah, my little sis got me into this. She's early 30's and I'm late 30's :/
A couple good songs to start your mcr journey:
Famous Last Words
Ghost of You
Helena
Vampires Will Never Hurt You
The Kids From Yesterday
I’d also throw in I’m Not Okay, This Isn’t A Fashion Statement, It’s A Fucking Deathwish, Skylines And Turnstiles, The Sharpest Lives, Destroya, maybe even Save Yourself, I’ll Hold Them Back
Famous Last Words is such a good song, and I feel like it doesn't get suggested enough.
You should listen last to destroya, listen to all of them before hearing destroya
To get used to unique weirdness of my chemical romance
Some days ago i was surprised by hearing The Kids From Yesterday at Doom Patrol. Such an amazing tv show!
Gerard nails the vocals live. Just saw them at Riot Fest in Chicago with 100,000 people singing along to every song. lol Great energy from start to finish. i walked away knowing I had just witnessed one of the greatest live bands of all-time.
Love the Dr Who reference another great reaction!
"Are you my Mummy?"
Interestingly, that episode has kind of an optimism in the face of bleak horror that matches this song. "Just this once, everybody lives!"
"Are you my Mommy?" I love the DW reference in this. Also love the time you did a reference to it with David Tennent in the Poison Sky episode.
"The ghost of you" and "I don't love you", please
When she sang "We'll carry on", it just hit me differently. To people who had emotional ties to this song, this ain't just a banger, GWay is our messiah.
Do or die, you'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part
I won't explain or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scars
Give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it's who we are
Just a man, I'm not a hero
Just a boy, who had to sing this song
Just a man, I'm not a hero
I don't care
Watching you get giddy over MCR was refreshing and adorable lol. Your a late MCR fan but you really should check out Helena 🤘
This is the anthem of a generation.
More than one generation cuz I'm 13 and I love this anthem
I saw them in concert at least 4 times. Never disappointed. Also, angels and airwaves is a great band as well. Their lead singer Tom delonge was originally from Blink 182.
FUN FACT:
The A&A logo is based off of the square and compus from Freemasonry
FUN FACT #2:
My father is a Mason and that makes Tom Delonge my dad's "brother" which makes Tom my uncle in a sorta way
AHH! i'm so excited to see that you're finally reacting to some MCR :D this song is such a classic, too! i think you should check out: Famous Last Words, The Ghost of You, and I'm Not Okay (I Promise)
Famous last words, the ghost of you and the light behind your eyes (on music video) are amazing too!
You should check out Ice Nine Kills Hip To Be Scared they are a genius band
YEES
Yes definitely!
Or farewell II flesh
Or American Nightmare!
@@victoriatwiz5624 YEEES
The woman wearing the mask is Mother War - a personification of war itself- The Patient used to be a soldier and he recons with her and his actions as a soldier at the end of his life. So TECHnically that doctor who recall isn't unwarranted!
If you want a good cry The light behind your eyes by MCR is one of my favorites
My top recommendations outside of the most played songs :)
- Sleep
- Mama
- AMUBLANCE
- Thank You for the Venom
Just discovered your channel and I've been enjoying your reactions to some of my favorite songs. But you won my subscription for that Doctor Who reference (btw it was an episode from Christopher Eccleston's season)

I really wish I could hear this song again for the first time
Remember this song in relation to your other channels specifically your TV reactions
I love the video by 12tone where he breaks down the meaning of this song and how the music supports it
Famous last words, Dead, Helena, I'm not okay and House of Wolves are some of their best songs
got the album...one of my favorites...still rattles the emotions.....brilliant...
Yayy finally😁 I think you would also like mcr's nanana or I'm not okay.
One of my favorite songs
I really love this song. Definitely an anthem
Can you react to "Bulls in the Bronx" and "Caraphernelia" from Pierce the Veil?
One of the great Genre Hymns
Rock: Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody
Hard Rock: Guns 'N Roses - Rocket Queen
Pop Punk: Green Day - Jesus of Suburbia
Emo / Post-Hardcore: My Chemical Romance - Welcome to the Black Parade

are you my mommy? btw thata a dr who quote from the 2 parter you were talking about “The Empty Child” and “The Doctor Dances”
My Chemical Romance - HELENA
This song and vid have always brought to mind the boatman ferrying souls across the river styx.
Yess try to react to something of their previous album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, it's a bit more punky but it's the best if you ask me
I recommend the songs Helena and To the End
The black parade is a concept album about a guy dying from cancer in a hospital. In the story, when you die you go into your favorite memory anthe character's favorite memory was when he was a kid, his dad took him to a parade.
Is she proof that not only people with perfect teeth can become popular. Love to see this on you tube. God bless you all!!!!!
The first reaction video of this song where the person easily understands the video. Finally
The episode of Doctor Who you were thinking of is a Ninth Doctor (Christopher Eccleston) episode called The Empty Child.
Bohemian Rhapsody of our time. One of the best rock albums of all time as well.
A "Black Parade" is the funeral procession.
I cant believe how old i am i was going through a divorce when these giys were big.but i always dug that song.
By far MCR's best song
Are you my mummy?
At least the nice part of the Doctor Who episode you mentioned, yes it was Christopher E, everyone lives
This song is so underrated
I'm Not Okay(I Promise). Love that song.
This is one of the main songs that inspired me to start learning piano lol been practicing for like 3 weeks now, but I have heard this song a long time ago I would recommend teenagers but you’ve already heard it that was my first song by them lol but for sure listen to these “I don’t love you”,”Helena”,”famous last words”,and “I’m not okay” another good one is “ghost of you” and “dead” “mama” as well
[Intro]
When I was a young boy, my father
Took me into the city to see a marching band
He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be
The savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?"
He said, "Will you defeat them, your demons
And all the non-believers, the plans that they have made?
Because one day, I'll leave you a phantom
To lead you in the summer to join the black parade"
When I was a young boy, my father
Took me into the city to see a marching band
He said, "Son, when you grow up, would you be
The savior of the broken, the beaten, and the damned?"
[Verse 1]
Sometimes, I get the feeling she's watching over me
And other times, I feel like I should go
And through it all, the rise and fall, the bodies in the streets
And when you're gone, we want you all to know
[Chorus]
We'll carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
And in my heart, I can't contain it
The anthem won't explain it
[Verse 2]
A world that sends you reeling from decimated dreams
Your misery and hate will kill us all
So paint it black and take it back, and let's shout it loud and clear
Defiant to the end, we hear the call
[Chorus]
To carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches
[Bridge]
On and on, we carry through the fears (Oh, ha, ha)
Disappointed faces of your peers (Oh, ha, ha)
Take a look at me, 'cause I could not care at all
[Breakdown]
Do or die, you'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part
I won't explain or say I'm sorry
I'm unashamed, I'm gonna show my scar
And give a cheer for all the broken
Listen here, because it's who we are
Just a man, I'm not a hero
Just a boy who had to sing this song
Just a man, I'm not a hero
I don't care
[Chorus]
We'll carry on, we'll carry on
And though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on, you'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on
[Outro]
Do or die, you'll never make me
Because the world will never take my heart
Go and try, you'll never break me
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)
Do or die, you'll never make me (We'll carry on)
Because the world will never take my heart (We'll carry on)
Go and try, you'll never break me (We'll carry)
We want it all, we wanna play this part (We'll carry on)

I would suggest Famous Last Words or Mama for more MCR songs, both are really good ones!
Awesome video btw!
Welcome to the Black Parade started in 2006… so 15 years ago.
That's a lovely reaction next you should react to their song I'm not ok I'm sure you will love it😊
"Dead!" is one of their songs you should react to
There's a cover version of this song that was dropped a week or two ago that I really love. Violet Orlandi, Lauren Babic, Halocene, and Audra Miller from First To Eleven did an incredible job with this. I really love if you would react to them.
The reason the black parade is showing themselves as a parade is because "The Patient" who is dying, is having his happiest moment flash before his eyes before death. The Parade he went to with his father. The parade is ushering him to his death.
Helena.. also one of the best (if not THE best) choreographed music videos ever.
Will Definitely like " I don't love you " by My chemical romance✨
The reference to that Doctor Who episode is definitely worth a like. That episode freaked me the hell out too. Creepy kids in horror are my weakness.
really great reaction to another amazing song! Keep up all the great work homie
Let’s get Ellierose to 100k subscribers 😀👍 x
If only haha
If you want check out some songs from the band Slaves "Heavier", "Talk to a Friend", "Prayers" are some I recommend 😊
Oooh I totally forgotten about the "Are u my mommy?" Doctor who episode. Just gave me a big flashback.
This song is played in the last ep of Lucifer
for real?
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I can’t even tell you how many times I listened to this album when I was on vacation to the beach
as far as i know the whole Black Parade album is a narrative of person who is dying from cancer and the story of struggles and acceptance of death
Yes! To all of the songs everyone else already stated! Please go on an MCR binge!
Just one of the most unique masterpieces of our childhood
Please listen to Famous Last Words by MCR the video carries on from this one. Also Ghost Of You by them is amazingggg
I’m pretty sure it’s impossible to listen to this song passively. It immediately draws you in
Famous last words is another good one
Not related to the song but I really want to feel again where I heard Disenchanted the first time
Edit: Hey maybe you can react to Disenchanted? It will break your heart.
Dude Gerard is amazing his voice is fukin immaculate
You need to do disturbed "vengeful one" definitely you won't regret it
Welcome to the black parade sis🥰
First view first like first comment!
yaaaaaas the best album in the history of albums
I loved that Doctor Who episode, "are you my mummy?"
Can just all people saying this is your first time hearing Mcr welcome to the black parade Like wait when you are born
Famous last words is there best song
To explain it, Gerard Way (lead singer) expresses his belief that death comes in the form of your fondest memory.
The album is best listened from beginning to end, the patient is dying and on top of his coming to terms with his impending death, we come to the Black Parade where his fondest memory was when his father took him to a parade.
“i wanna see it live” oh no wait til she finds out the band disbanded in 2013 (i know about the reunion tour but still lol)
THEYRE BACK BABYYY. I get to see them in October and im so excited. They're one of my favorite bands from my teenage years and I never got to see them live.
@@system0fadowner251 i’m seeing them in september and ditto lol
• Disenchanted
• I Don't Love You
• The Kids from Yesterday
• Ghost of You
• Famous Last Words
•Cancer
• I'm Not Okay
one of my Favorite MCR songs.
Can you please react to Volbeat's song "Lola Montez?" It's amazing! And a fantastic band altogether!
I don't love you is a must listen from MCR!!!
Saw them live over ten+ years ago great live! The black parade tour fabulous
Too bad there not together no more😓
Ellirose you gotta listen to their song "I Don't Love You". It's a beautiful song, I'd argue their best
Was that the "are you my mummy" episode??
No spoilers but when you reach the final episode of season 6 of Lucifer you’ll hear this again.
