    This version feels like a very good evolution of the song. The original felt much more like Gerard was lashing out at the world for taking his grandmother from him but this time around it feels much more like he’s been able to accept it like the anger he had inside has subsided but is of course still sad about her unfortunate passing and misses her

    Helena was the first ever song I listened to by My Chemical Romance. It was in 2007, and I was 10. I was going through depression because my older brother had died, and he was the one who kept me going. I tapped on the song accidentally, and it made me cry. For the first time in the month that had passed after my brother’s death, I had cried actual tears. It felt good, and it was a relief to cry. I hadn’t been able to cry before that because it was just a lump in my throat. I felt no emotion other than sadness too strong to even make me cry. I cried so much during the song I thought I’d run out of tears. That song made me realise that the worst of the pain will go away, and, although it’ll always be there, it’ll get better over time. It gave me hope, and, whenever I needed to cry, I listened to Helena. I moved on to listen to more of their songs, and listened to Bullets, and also listened to Revenge. Bullets let me cry, and told me that it was okay. That expressing feelings was okay. Revenge also let me get angry, and it let me destruct things. I turned 13 a few years later, and the pain had returned, worse than ever. I self-harmed and starved myself. I had completely forgotten about the band. I came across the band again, and I listened and listened. Slowly, I began to stop starving myself, and I cut less, and I didn’t realise it happening. I learnt so many things from My Chemical Romance. I learnt that I was beautiful, that it was okay to be angry, that it was okay to want to *cry*. Years later, I found that they broke up, and I cried. I cried a lot because when the band that gave you the chance to do what you wanted to do breaks up, you realise that it’s over; that they won’t be making anymore music. I still listened to My Chemical Romance, and it helped me through the darkness.
    My Chemical Romance has helped me so much, and they continue to. It’s crazy how much a band can help. You don’t realise it until they pull you out. I wouldn’t usually share this, but since I’m anonymous here, I will share. You’re all beautiful and worth something, because you’re you, and nobody else can be you. 💖

    This,, I'm-
    Gerard's voice is beautiful, it has feelings in it
    If some people don't like his voice then it's not our problem, just don't come and say he's a bad live singer.
    His voice is one of the most beautiful ones I have ever heard, I understand it, even when I'm listening to mcr songs, without the music videos, even if some dont even have video, I can understand his voice nd I even know what facial expressions he's doing while singing. If other people don't like it, well, it's not our problem, bc we're killjoys and we will be here until the very very end, until they don't even have their solo careers, they're everything to me, and ofc, to every killjoy in this family, and I , we, will never forget them.
    My Chemical Romance was the best idea ever.

      AFIC no no no . That’s not what I meant . I said I like that he is actually singing as in like idk I just like how they did the acoustic version because it was much more calm and he wasn’t jumping around . But I LOVE IT WHEN HE JUMPS AROUND and does all his stuff on stage but I remember in an interview he said that “ sometimes it’s fun to actually sing rather than just barking and yelling “ that’s where I was coming from . Sorry if that sounding offensive but I’m just saying that he REALLY sang it out “ that’s all . Hope this clears up the confusion.

I think kids will have an ear for good music. No one forced mcr on us. We found it because they're magic, and made amazing music that will carry on through the ages just like the bealtes or queen or any group that's been dead and gone, and still has a following even with much younger generations. I'm not gonna lie it'll probably melt my heart to hear my grandkids jamming to some famous last words though.

    Really memed and underrated vocalist. He is really up there with rock vocalists. I feel like hes skirted into emo memes and even emo culture way too much and it discredits his vocal talent and the instrumental talent of the band. They were amazing. I'm 38. I took my sister to a Van's Warped Tour in 2005 (shes way younger than me, lol, by 8 years). I remember very little from that experience other than Jessica wanting to see MCR as close as possible. I'm experienced in front row stakeouts and so that's what we did.
    I. Cannot. Explain. I truly just can't explain what it was like to see them live. I didn't even care about them. If anything, I scoffed at them because I was young and dumb and still sort of thought of music as being cool or not cool.
    I've seen HUNDREDS upon hundreds of shows in my life. Watching MCR live was one of the most memorable by leaps and bounds. I feel the need to elaborate. Instead, I'm going to leave it right there.

    a lot of our parents don't realised that many "emo" songs written in the linkin park, simple plan MCR era of songs about 2000s + are serious literature written by teens, instead they berated us for our creativity in the musical, artistical and literary works. If they were that worried that these songs would lead us some dark path, they should have guided us. many of my friends developed many issues like substance / alcohol abuse, anxiety and depression. and as a medical student, i learnt that many of these issues were attributed to the lack of love given during our teen years. As i'm writing this i'm 24. if i do become a parent in the future, i hope i find this comment again to remind myself to hold my child's hand while they find themselves.
