I had cancer myself. Today, 6 years ago, I got my first chemo. I met a girl named Marena, she was singing this song next to me. We became close friends... untill she died, fifth of may, 2014. Her last words: "the hardest part of this... is leaving you." She was a true MCR fan. I miss my bestie everyday.
anthony morales I think what it is is that most of the MCR fandom pretty much grew up listening to them without any real understanding of the real world around us. Like I didn't even know what cancer or diabetes was when The Black Parade was released because I was only 10 years old. Now that I'm 21 about to be 22 with friends who unfortunately have these diseaes, the song takes on such a different meaning and sentiment when you really pay attention to the lyrics. Idk if that makes any sense or not
Fuck. Everything about this is beyond perfection. The way Gerard seems so in the moment, the way everyone seems so in the moment. How Gerard's voice flows so beautifully throughout the lyrics. How, finally, there aren't any insanely loud instruments to cover up his voice. Only the piano to compliment his ever so slightly raspy voice, that still somehow sounds so velvety and soft, probably due to a mixture of coffee and cigarettes. And I won't even think of forgetting how, at the end, he pauses for the longest time, and let's the crowd's cheering sink in to himself, and everyone else. Then he finishes it off so wonderfully. I know I may have went overboard with the description of this entire performance, but oh my god. This is so unbelievably overwhelming to watch. I get choked up just trying to savor this. I can only imagine what their concerts are like.
Professional Ghostbuster i was looking at all the live songs and i was also like Tf are that OMG THE FLIP PHONES now i'm siting here with my old Flip phone like mcr was recorded with this divises its holy now 😂😂
Do you want to see other proofs that he really can't seem to cope with how fast/high some of his songs are in live? I love this version of Cancer but the other parts of his songs in his 3 cheers for sweet revenge part is bad at best...
I can never hear this without crying. The song is beautiful. Two years ago in May my Grandma died. She was really sick and was even in a nursing home for a while. For Christmas actually. She always said she was hurting but my family brushed it off as her being dramatic. She was home for a while but she wasn't the same, she was seeing things and talking to air. one morning my mom found her coughing up blood so they called an ambulance. As they pulled up to the hospital my grandma started tearing up and begged my mom to take her home. But we didn't know what was going on so they took her in. She was diagnosed with Colon cancer. It was so far gone, it had travelled throughout her body; including her brain. It was too late to do anything to help her. No chemo, nothing. My uncle drove my other uncle and I to the hospital where they told us. I was really protective over my nana because our family treated her so badly. She was always a bit messed up; she was from England and witnessed WW2 as a kid. When the doctors told my grandma she was going to die, she was so peaceful. she didn't cry. a week later she was in the ICU completely unconscious. I sat there, listening to this on repeat, trying to comprehend what was happening. My aunt and mom made us all leave that night and I knew I would never see my grandma again. But unlike everyone else, I couldn't say bye. I couldn't say I love you. because if I were to talk, I would have broken down. I miss her. since then I've lost my uncle and my grandpa, but my grandma still hits me the hardest. I'm not looking for pity, I just want to show how this song is super important. It helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. Their music still keeps me alive, helps me cope. I miss them. But thank you for writing this song, it means a lot to me.
ChemicalSkeleton I'm so sorry to hear. I'm going through the same exact thing you're going through. Christmas break, both my grandmother from my mom's side and my grandfather from my dad's side had to be rushed to the hospital. My Popop had always been in a nursing home, due to a stroke and other complications. He passed last week. We didn't want to see him suffer anymore. He had pneumonia and a UTI. He was on life support, etc. Fast forward to now, my grandmother is diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. We don't know how much time she has left. Surgery isn't an option for her because she's so weak and frail. It hurts to see her. It hurts so much. 😔
MCR was my favorite band when I was younger and top is now my current favorite, so to see them cover cancer and know that they also idolized MCR is such a beautiful mind fuck.
I love how Tyler and Josh really made it a song of their own though. It had enough old soul to make you miss Gerard but also gave it a beautiful fresh sound that really made it unique in its own way
My exact thoughts yesssss. I thought the cover was amazing, then I started reading a bunch of unnecessary hate comments saying how they ruined the song. I don't think that at all, they did a lovely tribute to MCR while also staying true to who they are as a band and I looove it:-)
Yeah I didn't even bother to look at the comments cause I already knew what it would be like. But I'm glad I wasn't the only one on here who loved it :)
This... This is what I signed up for. This song does my grandfather (that was taken away from me by cancer) justice. The TØP one was okay, but you can't beat this.
Jaqui_0 twenty one pilots just did a different interpretation of the song. Both are good in their own ways. MCR is angry and emotional. Twenty one pilots is defeated and ready to die.
Me in school: *sings this song* My friend: *joins along* Me: *thinks I’ve found a mcr friend* omg you know this song! Her: yeah, by twenty one pilots! Me: *cries in emo*
I love you Mom... You were so strong battling cervical cancer and it killed me everyday seeing you hide your pain. I pray each day that your soul rests in peace and I know that you are in a better place.
Mom, this song has been on repeat since you’ve left 4 years ago after a 9 year battle. Miss you so much! Also, what a performance of Gerard, I keep coming back to this one!
My little brother died of cancer when I was 17, even though it’s been a few years since then his death still hits heard for me and so does this song, it’s so beautiful and touching, amazing song
When I saw them in concert they closed with this song. It wasn't a full set since Linkin Park was the headliner right after. Doesn't get much more 2007 alternative than that.
You saw mcr and LP live?? You're so lucky, LP never came to my country so I never saw them live... And probably never will.... And i found out about mcr after they broke up :((
Crying because we'll see Tyler Joseph covering this beautiful song, also crying because we'll never see new live performances of mcr playing this song again kms
+lilithism well you don't have to listen to it if you don't like it. And also are many bad covers of mcr songs, yet the official versions are never "ruined", no matter how the covers are
How gerard sang the first note was so beautiful and chill. Not many people can sing like that. Emotional and heart breaking but heart warming at the same time. Thanks mcr you guys are too awesome
My ex girlfriend used to sing this to me as she lay in her bed just finished with her chemo. “Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you…” I’m remarried now with two children, and everytime I think of her, I hear her singing these words from the heavens..
This song was a beautiful song from the beginning, but it wasn't one of my favourites until about 2 weeks ago. I have a cousin (5 years old) who was just diagnosed with leukemia, I got the news and immediately burst into tears and was thrown into this huge state of depression, so bad that I could barely covince myself to get out of bed to do something simple, like brush my teeth or go to the bathroom. As I do so much of the time, I turned to music for consolation, this song came on and I was crying so much, but the raw emotion put into this song was beautiful, and helped me realise that I'm not alone with this. I'm still not completely better, which seems so freaking stupid, talking about my cousin dealing with CANCER of all horrible things that could happen to her, and being so depressed that I can't work up the courage to get out of bed. Thank you Gerard, MCR, and everybody behind the production of this song, for helping me through this difficult time in my life. Words cannot express the emotions that I'm feeling and the struggles that everybody in my family has been dealing with, but music has been such a grounding point for me, and the number of times this has kept me grounded is unspeakable, uncountable. I really hope that Paisley (My cousin) gets better, but we can't be sure right now. If you read this, thank you, it felt good to be able to vent. I hope that your lives haven't been quite so hard and that you are having a good new year!
I watched my mother who had stage 4 colon and stage 3 liver cancer slowly die. This song is exactly how she felt. She wanted nobody to see her. She was so sick. she couldn't move. She was bald. I watched her slowly die It was horrible. She wanted to die and get away from the pain and suffering but she didn't want to leave her husband and children. But this song is amazing. MCR has been there and helped me with everything. They always manage to trap my feelings perfectly into song lyrics.
I just lost my grandfather from cancer and I had 2 grandfathers who had cancer and they're dead now so I have one more left and he has the same cancer and recently he just got in a car accident and he is getting surgery right now. This song also helped me so much and I'm really glad MCR helped you with everything as well. 💞💞
Why is everyone arguing about tøp's cover not being as good? Why can't you like both, or at least accept people's opinion? I'm a complete fan of both tøp and mcr, and yes it doesn't sound like the original. But I don't think the point of a cover is just to sing the exact same thing on the exact same music, a good cover is a cover that can put a whole new perspective on the song, and that's what tøp did in my opinion. While the original is sad and full of emotions, tøp's cover is almost "soulless", but that's a really good idea aswell if you think about the lyrics. Either way, people can like whatever they want and you don't have to make fun of them to make your own opinion valid.
Achlucide it's because the cover sounds too much like pop trash, trying to make a song that is literally about cancer seem like it belongs in the top 40. Like, way to depress the 10 year olds who discover track 11 on the second CD and find out that it's called Cancer and extremely depressing.
Achlucide I see that, and I respect your opinion, and I should have made it clear that it is an opinion. And, despite what I believe about the cover, I find it to be rather enjoyable at times. However I very much prefer the original song, as sung by My Chemical Romance.
Turn away If you could get me a drink Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded Call my aunt Marie Help her gather all my things And bury me In all my favorite colors My sisters and my brothers, still I will not kiss you 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you Now turn away 'Cause I'm awful just to see 'Cause all my hair's abandoned all my body All my agony Know that I will never marry Baby I'm just soggy from the chemo But counting down the days to go It just ain't living And I just hope you know That if you say (if you say) Good-bye today (good-bye today) I'd ask you to be true (I'd ask you to be true) 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you
The way Gerard puts so much emotion into the performance is breathtaking! It makes me feel like I’m watching someone who has cancer themself perform a song to a crowd 😢
My grandma died about 5-6 years ago from cancer... this song hits really hard and I can’t listen to it without crying. Now that they’re back. Wow. 2019. Congrats :)
dammit I miss this band. Saw them live once, best night of my life. Seen GERARD, but it's not quite the same. God, I'd kill for them to just do one more tour together, the greatest hits tour or something.
Cancer will always be one of the most beautiful songs. I didn't mean to click on this video, and for the first few moments I had to remind myself to breathe. It just dawned on me how many people these men have helped, how many lives they saved and also just the absolute beauty of this performance, how Gerard just takes everything in and then gets the crowd to settle down like that just so he can finally breeze out that last word... This song has made me cry all night. I love this.
My grandma died because of cancer too... So did my great grandmother... So when I heard this song I locked myself in the bathroom and cried because I don't like it when my family sees me cry... Don't ask...
Losing my dad to cancer in the early 2000's makes this song hit so much harder. My eyes well every time. It's powerful. Beautiful. I will forever be grateful this song exists.
Reminds me of a live version NIN did of Hurt. Trent Reznor took the same approach, stripping the instrumentation down to piano, slowing the tempo a bit, and using a massive backlight on-stage. It just makes it so atmospheric, and the crowd fed off of it (almost) as much as they did here.
From someone who watched his father fight cancer for 5 years, I can say that this speaks to my soul. I met this song during my father's treatment, but when I look back, I don't remember this moment as something sad. Yes, It did destroyed me inside that time, but now when I listen to it I just can remember my father's victory in one of the most difficult fights that exist.
I think I definitely prefer this to tøp's version, even though I love tøp, this just has so much more feeling for me. Gerard's voice really carries the ebbs of anger, desperation and sadness that goes with each syllable and he makes me really feel the song so much. Another part of it is that tøp have lengthened the song, when it was supposed to be short to represent how little time the person had left to live.
I'm crying because of two things: 1. This song only reminds of my dear mother (R.I.P) 2. And the fact that I will never see this band live. That's it, I'm done.
+Ram875 A moment of silence for the fans that haven't seen their favorite band live, an eternity of silence for those who never will. *BLAME PINTEREST FOR THIS*
His voice is so beautiful. This song always makes me cry. My favorite song by MCR. But it sounds even better live I just love Gerard Way so much. Everything about him is perfect.
This is one of the first videos I ever see 'bout My Chemical Romance, and Cancer is my favorite song, 'cause was the first song I ever hear for My Chem. I love this video so much. And the original intro in the original performance video is too emotional, you have to see it, you wouldn't waste your time in a better way, I mean it ❤
Yo estuve en ese concierto y era tan feliz jamás me imagine q más de 10 años después me estaría despidiendo de mi madre por esta maldita enfermedad. Adiós Mamá.
I GET CHILLS TEAR UP EVERY TIME I MISS HIM SO MUCH I UNDERSTAND THAT HES HAPPY NOW AND I WANT THE BEST FOR HIM BUT CANT I JUST BE SAD 😭 Pls someone talk to me I'm sad
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer in December. I spent 7 days in hospital over christmas having major bowel surgery. I’m 41 😢. Tomorrow I go and talk about chemo. Today I listened to this and the tears would not stop flowing. Live your life, people. It’s finite and we never know when that bullet will find us ❤
My father died of cancer in 03 and this song is impossible to listen to without crying. Still here in 2023 listening to the most beautiful song. Love to all who lived and lost, and love to all who lost their lives to this wretched desease. ❤

After listening to top cover I gotta say it feels good coming back and listening to the original.

yep
I agree.
we all did
I never thought of Cancer as a sad song but I'm crying now. His voice just has so much emotion
Willow Warris how? It’s literally a song about dying of cancer.
I know but I haven't really listened to it fully
anthony morales I think what it is is that most of the MCR fandom pretty much grew up listening to them without any real understanding of the real world around us.

Well it is a sad song ya know hahaha
Willow Warris isn’t the title sad enough?
am i the only one who just feels like he's the king of the world in this performance?
ari halen Bren and gee are the kings of performances without auto tune and back play
No, you're not the only one. MCR's version is the best. Nothing against Twenty one pilots but c'mon! This is the best.
Youre not alone
I detect a taste of Freddy Mercury in this guy
Same . Elvis 2.0, rock version
Fuck. Everything about this is beyond perfection.
The way Gerard seems so in the moment, the way everyone seems so in the moment.
How Gerard's voice flows so beautifully throughout the lyrics. How, finally, there aren't any insanely loud instruments to cover up his voice.

how the hell can people say that gerard is a bad singing live? this is proof he is not!
Im a mcr lover, but this is a soft song, when gerard sings songs like welcome to the black parade» it seems like he forget to breath.
Do you want to see other proofs that he really can't seem to cope with how fast/high some of his songs are in live? I love this version of Cancer but the other parts of his songs in his 3 cheers for sweet revenge part is bad at best...
It is true that in some performances he losses his breath quite a lot but he is really good at singing live, especially for a rock band

Grell Sutcliffe omg, I love you and your flamboyant personality 😂. Sebastian will stop denying you one day. Dess
F u c k
My ex girlfriend used to sing this to me as she lay in her bed just finished with her chemo. “Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you…” I’m remarried now with two children, and everytime I think of her, I hear her singing these words from the heavens..
this made me cry, so sorry for ur loss :(
I legit almost started crying bc they have talent and then there's me
Syl BArAtwAt Same tbh
Wow me too
How else do you think you're supposed to get to sleep
Don't know if I should smile cause of the twenty one pilots cover or if I should cry 'cause I will never see mcr live
sAme
OML ME RN
HOLY FUCK RELETABLE
imma just be over here crying if y'all need me i wanna see them so bad
i saw them 😏
1:41 can we take a moment to talk about how long ago this was I mean wow. LOOK AT ALL TJOSE FLIP PHONES
hhaha
those 2007 days
This song was a beautiful song from the beginning, but it wasn't one of my favourites until about 2 weeks ago. I have a cousin (5 years old) who was just diagnosed with leukemia, I got the news and immediately burst into tears and was thrown into this huge state of depression, so bad that I could barely covince myself to get out of bed to do something simple, like brush my teeth or go to the bathroom. As I do so much of the time, I turned to music for consolation, this song came on and I was crying so much, but the raw emotion put into this song was beautiful, and helped me realise that I'm not alone with this. I'm still not completely better, which seems so freaking stupid, talking about my cousin dealing with CANCER of all horrible things that could happen to her, and being so depressed that I can't work up the courage to get out of bed. Thank you Gerard, MCR, and everybody behind the production of this song, for helping me through this difficult time in my life. Words cannot express the emotions that I'm feeling and the struggles that everybody in my family has been dealing with, but music has been such a grounding point for me, and the number of times this has kept me grounded is unspeakable, uncountable. I really hope that Paisley (My cousin) gets better, but we can't be sure right now. If you read this, thank you, it felt good to be able to vent. I hope that your lives haven't been quite so hard and that you are having a good new year!
Is she good now?
This is so incredibly beautiful.
The fact that I started liking them this year makes me so sad... I just... UGH :(((
Same.. Hah
Better late the never❤️
ikr its just soooooo freaking depressing when u learn that they are....well dead the band im talking about not them...but yeah I feel ur pain
His voice is the most beautiful thing on earth and no one can convince me otherwise
I would do anything to go back in time and be at this show
Me too
WOW!!! HIS VOICE HERE 😱 it’s legitimately better than the studio version!!!
I watched my mother who had stage 4 colon and stage 3 liver cancer slowly die. This song is exactly how she felt. She wanted nobody to see her. She was so sick. she couldn't move. She was bald. I watched her slowly die It was horrible. She wanted to die and get away from the pain and suffering but she didn't want to leave her husband and children. But this song is amazing. MCR has been there and helped me with everything. They always manage to trap my feelings perfectly into song lyrics.
Oh my goodness im am so sorry
It's fine
I know how you feel I lost my uncle to cancer back in December and this song struck me hard
I just lost my grandfather from cancer and I had 2 grandfathers who had cancer and they're dead now so I have one more left and he has the same cancer and recently he just got in a car accident and he is getting surgery right now. This song also helped me so much and I'm really glad MCR helped you with everything as well. 💞💞
+HaiiYamzzx3
oh my gosh in the next few days?!
i hope she is ok now
I know tøp is everywhere now but like this is so beautiful never forget mcr
Mackazinie and plus top could never beat MCR
Why is everyone arguing about tøp's cover not being as good?
Why can't you like both, or at least accept people's opinion?
I'm a complete fan of both tøp and mcr, and yes it doesn't sound like the original. But I don't think the point of a cover is just to sing the exact same thing on the exact same music, a good cover is a cover that can put a whole new perspective on the song, and that's what tøp did in my opinion.
While the original is sad and full of emotions, tøp's cover is almost "soulless", but that's a really good idea aswell if you think about the lyrics.
Either way, people can like whatever they want and you don't have to make fun of them to make your own opinion valid.
Achlucide tru dat
Achlucide Ikr. I like both of them, they're both good.. these fandoms are triggered..
Achlucide it's because the cover sounds too much like pop trash, trying to make a song that is literally about cancer seem like it belongs in the top 40. Like, way to depress the 10 year olds who discover track 11 on the second CD and find out that it's called Cancer and extremely depressing.
Frigid Also Futureless What you got here is called an opinion. Not an international truth.
Achlucide I see that, and I respect your opinion, and I should have made it clear that it is an opinion. And, despite what I believe about the cover, I find it to be rather enjoyable at times. However I very much prefer the original song, as sung by My Chemical Romance.
It's been years and I still can't stop coming back to this video
I'm not crying... /cries ocean of tears/
Don't cry, craft!
I know how to chear you up, at 1:12 he says fart
Turn away
If you could get me a drink
Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded
Call my aunt Marie
Help her gather all my things
And bury me
In all my favorite colors
My sisters and my brothers, still
I will not kiss you
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you
Now turn away
'Cause I'm awful just to see
'Cause all my hair's abandoned all my body
All my agony
Know that I will never marry
Baby I'm just soggy from the chemo
But counting down the days to go
It just ain't living
And I just hope you know
That if you say (if you say)
Good-bye today (good-bye today)
I'd ask you to be true (I'd ask you to be true)
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you
'Cause the hardest part of this
Is leaving you
Спасибо! )
thanks
Thank u ♡
Thx but why they all dont know the lyric
I love how he said "manos" is so lovely
Ily MCR
The way Gerard puts so much emotion into the performance is breathtaking! It makes me feel like I’m watching someone who has cancer themself perform a song to a crowd 😢
My grandma died about 5-6 years ago from cancer... this song hits really hard and I can’t listen to it without crying. Now that they’re back. Wow. 2019. Congrats :)
Im crying. This is such a beautiful song and beautiful voice. A song from my childhood
dammit I miss this band. Saw them live once, best night of my life. Seen GERARD, but it's not quite the same. God, I'd kill for them to just do one more tour together, the greatest hits tour or something.
I've never seen them live and I never will 😭💔
+Brynn Durham same friend
+Brynn Durham Same. We should die
+Brynn Durham same
+Molly Kiely same, damn it ♥
Cancer will always be one of the most beautiful songs. I didn't mean to click on this video, and for the first few moments I had to remind myself to breathe. It just dawned on me how many people these men have helped, how many lives they saved and also just the absolute beauty of this performance, how Gerard just takes everything in and then gets the crowd to settle down like that just so he can finally breeze out that last word... This song has made me cry all night. I love this.
I just listened to the top's cover and then that and i'm crying and DDD:
omg saaaame
dude saME
yup
Me too!!
same D':
i'm not crying wtf I just have something in my eye
Only real MCR fans knows exactly what song was coming up next haha.
Yup my favourite MCR song..... Mama !!!!!
I guessed before i even heard the thunder
M
A

M a m a
MAMA WE ALL GO TO HELL
Such a beautiful closing for CANCER song... Gerard really love his fans...
fuck. this song gets me everytime. Miss u grandma.
My grandma died because of cancer too... So did my great grandmother... So when I heard this song I locked myself in the bathroom and cried because I don't like it when my family sees me cry... Don't ask...
May she rest in peace xx
Party Poison oh, same :(
Friendly reminder: he had a bad cold during this concert. He can sing like THAT with a cold.
so cAn i
This is one of my favorite concert recordings. I don't how he did this with a COLD. So amazing
cant listen to this without crying. i miss my mum so much
I love that in Mexico they love good music. Every show that comes to them is packed with people who just love music. And you can see it.
Losing my dad to cancer in the early 2000's makes this song hit so much harder. My eyes well every time. It's powerful. Beautiful. I will forever be grateful this song exists.
the live version is so much better than the studio version
Reminds me of a live version NIN did of Hurt. Trent Reznor took the same approach, stripping the instrumentation down to piano, slowing the tempo a bit, and using a massive backlight on-stage. It just makes it so atmospheric, and the crowd fed off of it (almost) as much as they did here.
I only just started liking them so now I WILL NEVER EVER BE ABLE TO SEE THEM LIVE! EVER
I feel you
I started liking them on March 27th.....
I STARTED LIKING THEM ON MARCH FUCKING 20TH OF 2013 LIKE WELL FUCK YOU TOO MCR
+Kiwiø The Great I'm so sorry rip
bruh same..
From someone who watched his father fight cancer for 5 years, I can say that this speaks to my soul. I met this song during my father's treatment, but when I look back, I don't remember this moment as something sad. Yes, It did destroyed me inside that time, but now when I listen to it I just can remember my father's victory in one of the most difficult fights that exist.
SO ANGELIC SO PURE SO SAD THIS IS BEAUTIFUL WE DON'T DESERVE THEM
hes literallty l;ike 50
I think I definitely prefer this to tøp's version, even though I love tøp, this just has so much more feeling for me. Gerard's voice really carries the ebbs of anger, desperation and sadness that goes with each syllable and he makes me really feel the song so much. Another part of it is that tøp have lengthened the song, when it was supposed to be short to represent how little time the person had left to live.
whoa I never thought about that before
Tabi Butler exactly
Tabi Butler .
I'm crying because of two things:
1. This song only reminds of my dear mother (R.I.P)
2. And the fact that I will never see this band live.
That's it, I'm done.
+Ram875 A moment of silence for the fans that haven't seen their favorite band live, an eternity of silence for those who never will. *BLAME PINTEREST FOR THIS*
+Ram875 sorry for ur lost...
By far one of my favorite live performances ever by a band
Wish I could see them in concert... :(
Me too :'((((
Me too:'((((
Or 2019..
Me too :'(( :'(((
I paused at 0:03 and I SWEAR it looks like Gee has angel wings. Makes sense considering he's a lifesaver
my buddy ryan has pancreatic cancer and is fighting it right now. i pray everyday he doesnt lose his battle, keep fighting buddy!!
i am so sorry, and I hope your friend makes it. and I have to say, I LOVE your profile picture! I love 6TEEN!
Update: The chemo's working!! hes looking better and better every day!!!

***** that's great! :):):)
ive always been alone. i come here to cry every now and then...... i just dont wanna feel alone anymore
His voice is so beautiful. This song always makes me cry. My favorite song by MCR. But it sounds even better live I just love Gerard Way so much. Everything about him is perfect.
This is one of the first videos I ever see 'bout My Chemical Romance, and Cancer is my favorite song, 'cause was the first song I ever hear for My Chem.
I love this video so much. And the original intro in the original performance video is too emotional, you have to see it, you wouldn't waste your time in a better way, I mean it ❤
The people with their flip phones...I feel old.
me too
Holy crap
Feudalismvult same jajs
Man I remember having a flip phone with a camera on it and downloading music. I felt like such a badass.
Yo estuve en ese concierto y era tan feliz jamás me imagine q más de 10 años después me estaría despidiendo de mi madre por esta maldita enfermedad. Adiós Mamá.
De verdad que eres afortunada... y tu mami te cuida, de eso estoy seguro

I'll never get over this performance
This song is a masterpiece. It's so freaking sad but so beautiful at the same time, and this is an amazing live performance. It gave me the chills!
I'm not crying I just have a brick in my eye... Yeah that's it...
+piercethelauren samme

+sophia marie guess what date is close?
I was diagnosed with bowel cancer in December. I spent 7 days in hospital over christmas having major bowel surgery. I’m 41 😢. Tomorrow I go and talk about chemo. Today I listened to this and the tears would not stop flowing. Live your life, people. It’s finite and we never know when that bullet will find us ❤
seeing your comment 5 months later! i hope everything went well for you and that you’re thriving!
@@xzlenn9868 Thank you so much for your reply. I’m honestly happier than ever. Cancer really gave me a second chance at life ❤️🩹. I’m so lucky.
@@jonboy2804hope you better, I wish you the best, and cheers up,you are not alone, you have a friend in me :) back in months to know about you.
@@jonboy2804 i wish you well.
My father died of cancer in 03 and this song is impossible to listen to without crying. Still here in 2023 listening to the most beautiful song. Love to all who lived and lost, and love to all who lost their lives to this wretched desease. ❤
he has the voice of an angel :') MCR will always live on, killjoys never die
Gerard: I WILL NOT KISS YOU! Me: 😭 *sobs in emo*
hoW DOES HE MANAGE TO BE SO SASSY WHILE SINGING A SAD SONG IM COMMITING
I KNOW RIGHT THE SASS MASTER CANT BE CONTAINED
That Gerald with a spotlight on his back is so good . One of the best underrated song written (cancer and disenchanted)
I love that MCR doesn't use/need autotune
He used autotune for this in The Black Parade
It sound pretty similar to the recorded version but the still use auto tune
