I saw this live in 2003, it was the second song on their set list and it sounded exactly like this; insanely raw and gritty with that glorious fast-paced rhythm. As much as I'd love to hear the missing studio version, at this point, it would take away from the dive bar/garage band vibe and I find that's what makes this whole track even better. Forever a favorite.
Fuckin lucky! I wasn't born yet :3 *Cries*. I wish I could've seen them in concert but I didn't ever get to. I was too young to. But I'm glad you got to have that experience. And same. This is still pretty good audio. It's not bad.
I cannot believe they just played this live in 2022. I have chills! They managed to clean it up and still keep the feel. Absolutely incredible. Legends.
Sounds like the exact middle point between Bullets and Three Cheers, similar in tone to Bury Me In Black. Fuck it, this could've been one of their best songs.
They also did an interview where they said they were going to include it on 3 cheers. The interviewer says 'will it be a B side?' but the band says they love it and are pretty sure it will be on the actual record. Too bad they changed their minds :(
He would be dead. He said in an interview that he wasn't planning on coming from one of their early japan tours...he packed only stage clothes, didn't think he would survive.

+shrek there is a shirt with that logo. there was at least. haven't seen one in a while but i'm sure with some digging you could find one on ebay or amazon. it wasn't a rare shirt.
@@allim7519 Their first drummer leaked a few parts of the demo (guess he can't release it by himself for legal reasons or shit like that) on his Instagram and I think the said every member has a copy of it.
It also kind of sounds like Heaven Help Us in some parts. Like reminiscent of “would you pray for me” in how the guitar sounds in the beginning around the 0:40 mark.
There is, but it’s lost and/or not able to be released because former drummer Matt Peliseir has it and can’t release it for legal reasons. He apparently leaked parts of it on Instagram a few years ago but I can’t find that video. :/
it honestly makes me emotional reading the comments from years ago of people wishing there was a better recording of this song. I cant believe we actually got the better recording we’ve always wanted, and that mcr are an active touring band again.
@@Alansworstnight yes!! they performed it live in their fifth LA show in 2022 so we now have a better and clearer recording of it, and not just this 2003 one :)
10/17/2022 WE FINALLY HAVE A NEW RECORDING OF THIS SONG AVAILABLE AND AT A CONCERT THAT WAS BEING RECORDED FOR THE OFFICIAL TOUR DOC. IM NOT OKAY (I promise)
I’ve watched this so many times through all the years I’ve been a fan. Commenting the morning after they played this song for the first time since 2003.
hearing this song live for the first time in almost 20 years tonight after everything they've done and everything they've been through is making me Quite Emotional, lads
WHAT THE HELL!?!? this sounds like this could be the best MCR song if it was in better quality! OMG, it has that lady of sorrows vibe to it! I REALLY WISH the band just stuck with this style, its to good! after second album....WHY did they change. the black parade isn't bad, BUT WHY!!!

Yeah, it's during the Bullets era, guess it was supposed to be in the album but didn't make the cut prolly due to Gerard's toothache, similar to their cover of Jack The Ripper.
KillJoy McGee nope it was recorded for the movie "Freddy Vs Jason" but wasn't finished in time of the movies release and they only played this song two times first time 6 June 2003 and the other time I don't remember..
Wow this is a really good song. Bc I'd always known *of* a song called sister to sleep, I'd assumed I'd heard it before. But I realized I hadn't! I really like it. Jealous of the shows that got the rare songs but my show had a really good set list so I won't complain. Also those screams at the end are really good and energetic Edit: I've heard ppl talk about STS, the MG&MK ep songs (FTWWW, MOR, BDFS) and other non-album songs like TBP B-sides and desert song and all that, but no one seems to talk about Zero Percent, a cut DD song. ZP is really good and people should listen to it. I wish it wasn't cut
I've played this song for 10 hours in all, and god It's amazing. I would kill myself for the studio version.. Ahh I just love the shit out of this song and mcr fuckkk.
Ive listened to this song so many times its such a shame the original demo was never released and the only known copy cant be released do to legal reasons.

ITS 2022 AND THEY PLAYED SISTER TO SLEEP LIVE TODAY!
SOUNDCHECKED THIS FOR MCRLA5 ILL BE BACK TO UPDATE
Yes and they played fake your death I’m still crying 2 hours later
i love how everyone is rushing back to this video after last night ❤️ wish i could’ve been there in person but i watched the stream and it was crazy
its hard to imagine that only a few days ago this was preformed in california
I saw this live in 2022 and literally it was AMAZING I didn’t ever recognize it at first
Holy shit this was really good. I wish some of their earlier songs would have made it to studio versions ;_;
coming back to this after seeing it live in 2022🫶🏼

The unslurred lyrics probably went:
*When* did I say, *when* did I say to put sister to sleep?
We fall awake *and I,* and I'm never going to bed
it was written before that.

I wish they do a proper recording of this or rewrite it now that they're back together
they just played it live!
that's probably on official terms. and when they were a proper band. way back they had no band name, and were constantly switching members because gerard called so many people up and lots of people didn't take the band as seriously as he did. MCR have fucking loads of early works, before bullets and before turnstiles. by the first MCR song I believe it was just the first song that really gave birth to MCR and signify them as a musical unit.
It's like an early version of Helena and It's Not A Fashion Statement, It's A Deathwish at the same time
