My Chemical Romance recently sat down with The GRAMMY Museum Executive Director to discuss their beginnings, trials and transformations in their nearly decade- long career
Frank speaking about the band saving people made me so emotional, you could tell how much it actually means to him
+Alex Eli Also hIS FACE WHEN THE GIRL SAID SHE SURVIVED CANCER HE LOOKED SO PROUD
ikr I almost cried
2:11 "The best band I've ever been in"
I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING
Franks last two answers. Just wow. I have a lot of respect for each of these men but just hearing Franks answers to some of the questions, especially the one about 'Cancer' was enough to make me cry. These men will always have a special place in my heart. They got me through some tough times. Those times where actually after they broke up. It hurts my heart knowing that I never got to see them play live or really even listened to their music before they broke up but know I just have undying desire to thank them for the music they make now and the music they made then.
I'm glad I chose the right band
I keep getting surprised at how eloquent Frank is.
THE GIRL WHO SURVIVED CANCER WAS ME!!!!! AFTER THE INTERVIEW, I GOT TO MEET THEM AND THEY SIGNED MY JACKET!!! I GOT A PERSONAL PIC WITH THEM! THEY ARE SO NICE!!! i know ppl will say:oh she just wants attention and shes lying but that girl was seriously me. i survived acute lymphoblastic leukemia and had to go through treatment for 2 and a half years i lost all my hair but grew it back. it was horrible, but i got through it. :) I LOVE MCR THANKS SO MUCH FOR DOING THIS FOR ME!!!! :D
:)))
:))
Wish you well!
I hope you are doing better now!
THATS AWESOME!!!!
Ray finally crossed his legs.
I know, and it's not even the same 'style' as everybody else's crossed legs
2:37 Ray's little hand wave ayy
When Frank's talking about what the songs mean to him(his answer starts at 4:22) he sounds like he's really emotional and likes he's about to cry and it made me sad bc I love Frank!!
I didn't want this to be over. This band blows my mind away almost every word they speak. The immense intelligence within every member is so crazily inspiring. And to a lot of times see myself in them is a big help to me. I have what Gerard explains a lot, his previous fear of not doing something special, not loving his life, or dying alone as he used to say as a fact until Lindsey 'swept him off his feet,' as he did hers. I fear that a lot. I find myself having a couple talents but nothing I am extremely talented with and that scares me. It scares me that probably only a little talent won't get you very far. And this was where Gerard was. That's where I see myself in him, and I look up to him more than you could ever imagine to look up to someone, and he gives me hope that I will turn the corner to be such an amazing human as him. It's not just him either, it's the whole band. They all put things on the table that inspire me. I shake my head a lot listening to their songs or their words, simply at how wise, intelligent and amazing they are. They put it in their songs, the put it in their words, they put it in their art to where it becomes them. It always was them I suppose, but to have the power that they do of self expression is so very inspiring. These words barely even express how inspired and amazed I am by them. Maybe one day I will be able to put it into greater words.
This is exactly how I feel.
I feel the same way and I find their songs so inspiring and they have helped me through tough times, remember that you will be something and will never be alone, with those few talents you have you can do so much good and have so much success, I truly wish you and anyone else reading this all the happiness in the world for your life and for any others who share this same fear or who r going through a tough time remember that you will be something and that you are never alone and that you are very much loved no matter how much it feels like you r not, and in dark times remember it never rains forever xx
Did Garard have his alternative look before MCR?
i love how frank is like "THERE. right there. that one" and points. He knew exactly who he wanted to choose before the guy even said they could choose the last question. He is so sweet, the girl obviously looked like she really wanted her question answered and he made sure it would happen.
*I DON'T KNOW*
I straight up just thought the one girl was gonna say "Gerard you talk alot."
i am just so overwhelmed by this, extremely proud of my chemical romance truly, i'd like to think we were raised and by coincidence trained by them to be capable in becoming learned, introspective and critical thinkers in our lives and to see value in what we perceive, to believe and do what is morally right, all around i think we've achieved a goal in being a better generation of humans, in addition also to the immensely invaluable lessons incorporated into us through them and their journeys as well as our experiences. i'm sorry for this long arse comment i'm just so proud :')
"I know I'd be miserable." Aw gosh I love Ray. He really is my hero and I can only hope that I'll be able to play guitar like him one day.
5:14-6:34 You can hear the emotion in his voice, Frank literally made me cry
they were talking about how their music kinda was about rescuing the world. and honestly that is just a fact. I used to be suicidal as a young teenager but when I first heard Welcome To The Black Parade, the first song I ever heard by them, it gave me new hope and it made me want to keep going. it showed me that I am not alone and there are so many others just like me out there. it made me finally feel strong. if it weren't for them I might not be here today. and I am so thankful. I hope that one day I can meet them and tell them all this in person. ❤
This band does amazing things. For me it's saved my life or gave me the strength to carry on. It's helped me find who I am. its helped me to stand up for myself and be myself and not care what anyone else thinks. I have an abusive relationship with my dad and these guys are like dads to me. They've made me laugh and cry and happy and me. They showed me love like I have never seen before . They cared when no one else did. They were there when I was suicidal and helped pick me back up. They introduced me to the most caring, amazing, beautiful fandom that feels more like a big family then people we've never met. These four boys will forever be in my heart no matter what. I'm sad that they've broken up but it couldn't go on forever and as long as they're happy and healthy ill be okay. They'll most likely never see this but if they do I just want to thank them for all of the above. without you guys I would be dead and if I wasn't I would still be the girl who is what society wants her to be and never have spoken out about my opinions. Thank you to the killjoys for helping me through the tough parts you guys are so amazing and don't you dare ever forget that.
I love you all like family and In a way that's what we are
Keep running and never let them take you alive!

Im happy that you decided to to keep going in life even at the worst moments, it's been six years how are you?
Oh my god! Frank and Gerard made me so emotional in this. I'm crying so much right now after I just watched Frank and when he said that.
Frank's face when the girl asks her question, and his voice when he says 'I hope you liked the song' is...I don't know, something you can't describe. You can tell the guys in this band really care. I find the fact that that girl's question made Frank speechless incredible, they really have helped and reached so many people, it's insane to think about. I swear my life would be complete if I could just sit and have coffee and talk to them.
MCR thank you for helping me save myself, and being there.
I just wanted to say this for anyone going through a tough time or doubting themselves, remember that you are and will be something and will never be nothing, I truly wish you all the happiness in the world for your life, remember that you are and will be something and will be successful and that you are never alone and that you are very much loved no matter how much it feels like you r not, and in dark times remember it never rains forever xx
This was written seven years ago but it’s still beautiful
Gerard said he didnt think he would get anywhere with his comics and here we are with The Umbrella Academy🖤
i love this band way to much. it really did save my life. i was in a bad place in my life and i wanted to die. but when i discovered this band i became alot happier. i love these 4 men with all my heart. they make me so happy and they helped me with the most difficult time of my life. i am very grateful to find this band. i wrote letters to them explaining my life. it actually made me really sad. i came so long and i have been clean for 1 year. i feel stronger and better.
one of the things i adore about mcr is how much they love and respect their fans...they hardly take any credit for the impact they've had on people's lives and they love spending time with fans on a personal level.
*cries in new fan who wants to hang out with them*
i cry everytime when Frank talks about saving peoples lives:')
He get so choked up, and i swear looks like he's gonna cry♥
I have a Make a Wish wish. And I really wish I could use it on meeting these guys. They are so astoundingly incredible. Obviously music wise, they are amazing but they are honestly the sweetest guys ever. They are just incredible human beings and that's hard to find nowadays.
Awwww Frank was so sweet. He really didn't see that coming. I loved how he looked when he was saying he hoped she liked the song. That was really touching. Definitely shows a softer side of the whole band.
When Frank was talking about how we don't give ourselves enough credit it looked like he was getting choked up and was about to cry and when Frank picked the girl who was a cancer survivor I started crying because it was so sweet. No matter what anybody says Gerard, Frank, Mikey, and Ray are good hearted, caring men.
i miss this band so much. but i know that the music that they made & their passion will never ever die. they are THAT good. "merci pour le venin"
im not a person who usually cries but when i saw this interview i cried.. my grandpa was diagnosed with cancer and he lived in puerto rico while i lived in texas. that was one of the hardest times for me and thats when i really got hooked to my chemical romance.. to write such an beautiful song about the ugliness of cancer, nobody does that. nobody makes you feel like that.
Frank always seems like the biggest joker on the planet (which I bet he is) but he can still be really deep and heartfelt. I'm mildly proud to say that this final interview made me cry. The thing about Cancer the most.
I think we can all agree that the men of MCR are very good hearted people and are the best band ever!
~Devious Detonator
This final part of the interview will always choke me up. Tears roll down my face everytime. And it's not because I'm sad. It's because Frank is right. After 5 years I am now proudly depression-free for 15 weeks and 5 days (and counting!) after seeing these guys live. And it's not because they "saved" me. It's because they helped to re-ignite that flame of strength that had always been burning away in here.
Thank you, My Chemical Romance. For more than I can express. ♥
Frank...my heart...my heart. His speech about us saving ourselves...ripped me apart. I love all of you. I love My Chemical Romance. I love the MCRmy.
i haven’t listened to mcr in a long time
i went back and watched this interview and cried so much
i love them
Frankie sounded like he was gonna cry :( Frankie needed a hug.
i think this sums up why I like My Chemical Romance so much. and what Frank said totally made me cry. He looks so sad afterwards, too. they have given so many people so much hope - i feel i can survive and get better because they did. i've never cried over another band like i cry over them, they just mean so much.
It looks like is literally about to cry. My heart..❤️💔
I miss you guys :'( :'(
I can't even begin to describe how much I love and appreciate this band. Honestly they helped me out through a lot. And i will forever be grateful for them and I thank god every day that such people exist in my life. Even if they broke I still support their solo careers and I wish them all the best
Words cannot describe my love for MCR... I would literally die on the spot of happiness if I could ever meet them.
in a way, with reference to the killjoys comic, it's as if they're tryna help us toughen up after being so angry and riled up, like the transition from black parade to danger days. that'd be cool but the heartbreak tho
You know, I discovered this band a little to late, so I don't really know how many people they have saved or something like that. I just know that every single time they impress me. Everytime I see an old intervieuw or listen to their music. Even this...I am thinking and I realised that it is so hard to just forget what someone can do or does without even thinking about it. Like this band just started to make music and just went with. People enjoyed it and here they...were? God, I wish I had heard of them sooner, so this comment wouldn't so awkward.
FreakyFanGirl1 i was lucky enough to have discovered them (through a friend) before they made it mainstream/big when i was about 13/14. They are literally the reason i am still here today. Not just from their music, but after seeing Gerards struggles and seeing him overcome them, i believed i could too. I was (and still am) so mentally unwell and unstable i believe/d i should be in a jacket in a padded room. When i found MCR i finally felt I wasn't alone and someone finally understood me. At around the time of Black Parade, i became Christian. I still listened to MCR for a bit but slowly stopped until recently after my mental state went heavily downhill again. I didn't even know they had split lol. I started listening to them again and finding interviews etc because i needed to find someone who understood and wanted to feel like myself again after struggling these past few years to change who i am. I forgot about how truly artistic these guys are, and i wish i could have meet them in person (being in new zealand ive only ever gotten 1 chance to see them in concert but it didn't work out) I don't have anyone in my life who truly understands me, but these guys would and thats what always drew me to them and what always brings me back to them
Same I'm 12, so I was 7 when they broke up,so I couldn't have listened to their music, when they were a band. I feel like they really made an impact just by the fact that someone my age can listen and still find something in the music. At my school alone you can always see people in MCR shirts. They really are a timeless band, with timeless music(The Black Parade!)
frankie being all sweet to the cancer survivor. ;~; I love him so much.
Who loves Gerards voice
okay Gerard had a cold...the nose talk omfg
Frank at the end wiping away his tears? You beautiful man.
I love Frank's smile when he smiles at the girl who asked about Cancer :')
“You rock the red hair way better than Rihanna” thank you to the lady that said that 😂
aw Frank you are just the sweetest guy ever :') this video made me cry :'( just soo beautiful people
8:36 Ahahaha Gerard don't eat your nails! LOL
Frankie's seriously my hero. When he was talking about how we don't give ourselves enough credit he looked like he was going to cry and was choking up.
Then he picked that girl and she had said "I'm a cancer survivor..."
I was just like, good choice Frank, I love you so much.
That girl and Frankie gmh.
The best interview I've ever seen. I love My Chemical Romance.
In a week, I'm seeing them live for the first time ever. In Stockholm, Sweden. And I still can't believe it, it feels unbelievable. I am so extremely happy.
After watching all the parts to this full interview it just shows everyone, MCR fans or not, what great people the band members are. They're seriously unique and 1 of a kind. I would love to spend an entire day with these guys!
Frank Iero. You are the sweetest and most caring man that I have ever seen/met in my entire life.
I can honestly say that, too.
I mean, just look at his expression at 6:40. My heart just burst.
I cried during Franks speech cause it's so true and they have saved my life many times
MCRMY4EVER
I am in tears, these guys right here are the reason of my life, you can't imagine how much I would love to be around them for just a few seconds, or to see them live just once. They are my inspiration, and the reason why I am the way that I am. They've changed my life completely. And I will love them my whole entire life.
this interview was amazing!
and the last question and answer made me get emotional too...It's the truth; when you meet cancer patients (or others like people with major disabilities) they are often the strongest and have so much love and happiness to share. It makes you feel good to work with them and talk to them. This band is amazing and they're so nice and actually seem to care. :)
I can honestly say that this band has saved my life. all i know is that they can make my day with just their words. I go through school humming these songs in my head, and none of my friends can understand why i listen to them because all they listen to is like one direction. They don't understand how this band has helped me through all my hardest struggles... If i could say anything to them it would be, thank you mcr you've saved me from everything.
I was there. I travelled from Brazil to LA and I KNEW id get to see them there. At the streets. At the airport. At the concerts. But dude... I never knew Id be THIS lucky. I never knew Id hear THESE words coming out from THEIR mouths... This is what MCR is about, killjoys, never give up. When u think something cant get better... It can! Im a hairdresser and I had to work for almost one year to pay for this travel but I can say to you: It was worth the effort. They ARE WORTH the effort.
I wish I could like this over & over again..
Seeing Frank coking up near the end really made me realise that they don't take their career for granted.. And that they actually mean what they say.. And When he was pointing at the little girl who asked about "Cancer" and he said "Hey there" actually brought a tear to my eye because Frank was trying not to cry! I love these guys so much!
Frank as gonna cry...I cried for him ;-; :'(
I'm a very depressive person. And throughout every part of this interview, I was smiling subconsciously and I only realised when it finished.
They are just so sweet and down to earth, it's amazing.
Frank made me cry... He's so beautiful. He's so deep. I love him. Kill joys -3
I have a question and I feel like it might be slightly stupid but I'm curious. If someone now asks to hang out with MCR as their make a wish would they still be able to hang out with the whole band considering they're not together anymore?
I was thinking about the exact same thing the whole video
omg
I think they would gladly do it and still enjoy it as much as they express they do here in this video. They never let small things like that get in the way of bigger things like the make a wish foundation.
I reckon they would. They are still good friends, they still hang out regularly, and even of they weren't friends anymore, they all have great hearts for others in need and their fans so i think they would put their differences aside to do what was needed
I know this was posted a couple years ago but this actually happened and they did come back together to hang out except for Frank since he was somewhere else or something like that lol
I think he's wrong when he says we saved our own lives, but he's also right when he says it wasn't all the band. I think the MCRmy saved each other. I've gotten more strength from meeting and talking with all the wonderful fans of MCR than I have ever gotten from the band itself. But I think they should give themselves some credit. MCR fans are some amazing people, and I'm completely blown away every time I meet one of my amazing sisters and brothers with hearts bigger than you could imagine.
watching this interview was allot of time well spent! :)
this is my favourite interview of My Chemical Romance ever!
Ray finally crossed his legs for the end
I admire these guys a ton. But after watching this.. oh my gosh. I admire then EVEN MORE. They're such nice, down to earth people... Frank's comments were simply beautiful, and so were Gerard's. Tears of happiness fell down to my cheek.
crying forever at this, oh my god. I can never ever express how much these 4 men mean to me. gah, so emotional.
When I was 14 my dad died of cancer a couple of months before black parade came out, I used to listen to cancer all the time, I can't explain the kind of appreciation I have for that song, I had and still have so much respect towards it's honesty, thanks mcr
wow my chemical romance saved my life, it means so much that frank is so dam fuckin grateful and touched when fans tell the band that, im glad they told us how they feel when people say mcr saved their lives frank is the sweetest person on this earth , its awesome they went too the make a wish found thats incredible and inspiring i love my chemical romance !
these guys are my heros seriously they inspire me so much
I sarted crying around the end... :) I loved when Frank said that its the fans who saved themselves and they were just so humble and saying how strong the MCRmy is... and then the girl who is a cancer survivor and Gee talking about make a wish... MCR is just my absolute inspiration and I love these boys with all my heart
4:20 - 6:35 wow... i didnt know Frankie could be so deep
Welcome to the Black Parade is my absolute favorite song that i have heard in my entire life. When i hear it my heart imediately feels heavy and by the time Gerard starts singing i am already in tears. I think its because it starts out very heartfelt and deep, and becomes this amazing life that could have been nothing, but fufills this great destiny and though it may not affect the entire world it has changed something big and gets deeper with each humble lyric and give inspiration to everyone
I love this band so, so much. The complete sincerity that they express in this interview is just... beautiful. I relate so much to some of what they've said, and seeing Frank choke up at the end really moved me.
I can't even properly describe it. I fucking love this interview so much.
Every second of watching these interviews reminds me just why this band is my absolute FAVORITE! ^___^
You rescued me Gee. :) I love these guys so much.
such a great interview!such an amazing band!
KEEP ON GIVING HOPE
Frank talking about the band saving people made me cry they have helped me sooooooo much I love them!!! I am a newer fan but they do mean the world to me!😭😁💕💕
i never knew i could cry from a interview. i never knew that i could cry from a song. i never knew i could cry from just seeing someone in person. until i found my chemical romance. i went through hard times in depression and self harm and i am now proudly more than 2 years over it due to my chemical romance giving me the strength to get through the worst times. i thank my chemical romance and the fans for in the words of frank "not giving a fuck"
WAAAAHHHHHHHHH THEY WERE SO PERFECT AS A WHOLE
First band that ever make me happy - i can't even watch/listen to them because they make me cry a hell of a lot
miss these guys soo much
What Frank said made me cry man.. That's a really cool story bro.
I LOVE FRANK! I think the "not giving yourself enough credit" thing is sweet... They seriously did save my life though!!! Frank also looks like he's gonna cry when that girl asks them about Cancer!
MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE IS AMAZING!
AHHHH WHY CAN'T I GET OVER THEM
frank literally looked like a cute puppy through the whole interview :3
aww can i like this a billion times?
theyre so unbelievably great
and frank also made me cry ha
And *this* is why I love this band so much.
can't help but cry every time i watch this video :D MCR FOREVER
Frank Iero. I can honestly say that he is the sweetest and most caring man that I have ever seen in my life.
There are tears right now.
He truly is my hero..
i love all of these parts to this interview :D
This is a great interview, i am weeping! Hahaha. The guys are wonderful.
I fucking cried oh my god Frank
Still love them today.
when Frank was talking about Cancer and all the strength that the kids have, i started crying like a baby x'D i don't know what having cancer is like, but to all the kids that have it, just know the MCRmy has hope for you :3
stay strong
I just don't get it. Why did you have to break up?! You guys are my heroes, my everything. I'm not even kidding. You have got me through so much crap and taught me so many things. You were the first band I have ever loved, and now you're gone. You're supposed to be saving lives and your job isn't done. I want to say thank you,though, for everything you have done. You have truly inspired me and showed me that even though my life isn't great, I can't get where I want to be. Without you guys..
Then the people ask me why do I feel so much respect and admiration for these guys, the kind that I only feel for my parents and siblings, they are so much more than musicians, great great persons.
I just saw the whole interview: WOW!!! They´re really amazing!
