You know why I am always dissastisfied with music these days. It’s because. My Chemical Motherfucking Romance made “Mama” which started as a DARE because someone told Ray Goddamn Toro “Bet u can’t write a fuckin’ polka” and, then he DID, BITCH - and 12 year old me heard that shit, and had such a spiritual and religious experience to it… like… the GUITARS, Gerard’s VOICE, the ANGST, the self LOATHING, that song has it ALL bitch. And then you think it’s OVER, but NO!! Then Gerard comes in, like, “But there’s shit that I’ve done with this FUCK of a gun -” Like, hOLY shI T BRUH, and then they ALL start SINGING and it’s like a goddamn motherfucking … war MARCH or SOMETHING outta a fucking HORROR movie, and then it just ENDS with Gerard SCREAMING, and the GUITARS, and I ?!?!?!!!! HOW COME ANYONE TOP THAT??!!! THERE IS SO MUCH MELODRAMA IN THAT SINGLE SONG. THERE IS SO MUCH FUCKING THEATRICALITY… THAT IS THE JOY OF MUSICAL THEATER BUT ALSO IT WAS PRODUCED BY STEVEN KING ON ACID… LIKE, THAT’S WHAT “MAMA” IS… AND WE’RE ALL SUPPOSED TO JUST GO ON AND LISTEN TO OTHER MUSIC AND JUST EXPECT IT TO TOP THAT?? NO!! NOTHING WILL EVER TOP MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE’S “MAMA”… BECAUSE U WANNA KNOW WHY??? BECAUSE GERARD MOTHERFUCKING WAY HAS US ALL CAUGHT BY THE BALLS OF OUR EMO MIDDLE SCHOOL SELVES, THE ONES WHO LIVED FOR NOTHING ELSE BUT THE ABSOLUTE DRAMA OF IT ALL, AND HE IS NOT LETTING GO ANYTIME SOON. WE ARE HIS BITCHES NOW, AND ALL OF MUSIC FOR THE REST OF TIME WILL ONLY BE OUR SIDE HOES. THAT’S JUST HOW IT IS. FUCK.
I am here for this description of Mama and My Chemical Romance
I can’t believe someone put all of my subconscious thoughts about the entirety of mcr into words
I can’t believe someone made a praise post for Mama and didn’t mention how Liza fucking Minnelli is on the track too
