@@Timboolin how isn't it iconic? It became the song of basically an entire generation. Who even after growing out of most other emo stuff still have unconditional love for it
@@Timboolin yeah because Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury are known for how baggy their jeans are. Frankly I don't see what makes them different except that when they came out there was less music to choose from, and that they've had longer to establish themselves.
Love the percussionist in the back ground just having the time of her life smashing those cymbals together haha. Great cover! And I'm a big My Chem fan so I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. :)
Their name is G Flip and an awesome artist as well. As the other commenter said, definitely check them out (if you haven’t already, since I just realised the comment was from 5 years ago 😂)
I'm pleasantly surprised by how many good covers of this song exist! I just found this after hearing Postmodern Jukebox do it, and that was after hearing Melodicka Bros 😁
I know I'm late for the party but I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. Not only because the nostalgia of this song hits hard but also because this is a very passionate and beautiful cover. Thank you for that!
This is such an underrated song, should be mentioned alongside the all time great songs. I love how she stayed true to the melody and just let her voice be the point of difference, one of the best like a versions I have heard.
This is so good! I especially love it when an artist covers a song that was originally sung by someone of a different gender from theirs, yet still keep the gender of the original artist the same when mentioned in the song. That shows a lot of respect to the original artist.
Some artists always do that lol, check out the video for Falkor by Covet and watch the drummer, half the comments on the video are about how happy the guy seems
Damn, the drumming & the whole band together were magnificent & the backup singer on the keyboard, wow, Wow, WOW, absolutely FANTASTIC. Who is she, such a great voice??
I’ve been freaking out about this on ig before I even watched it; Alex!!! G flip!!! Like is this a crossover episode! also I hope this cover blows up, Alex and everyone deserves it
@@steviwoodberry6433 I thought they added a nice ska touch in the bridge section. And while I like Ray Toro, this version definitely had better backing vocals.
I just discovered Alex Lahey today (been living stateside for 15 years). Holy **^&% She plane out ROCKS!!! What a performance. Gives me hope for the future... and Triple J (old Gen Xer just not digging whats been getting made lately). Just wow.
I never really like this song or gave it much of a chance until I heard this cover, i love this cover and it definitely let me hear the song in a new light
Did anyone else notice the auxiliary percussionist?? She just looks like she is having so much fun the whole time! This would be a fun song to play, excellent cover too
I feel like im watching a Nickelodeon kids rock band make it big and it's kind of heartwarming. I don't know how old these guys are but their vibe brings me back to my highschool days preforming this same song for a talent show back in the day. It's so nice to see someone with the same influences (And way more talent) make it this far
I’m a big Alex lahey fan and I wanted to be offended by this and as I was typing a comment about how you were wrong and watching the performance i can’t even disagree. Let’s at least settle on it being like the winner of the talent show
There's some songs that are so beloved that no matter how good the cover there will always be a pushback. I think if you're going to cover one of these, this is the best way to do it, you can see they gave it their all and had fun with it. That's why it's such a great cover.
The Black Parade Live album was the first one I ever listened to completely without skipping. I'm barely capable of that today. I like this version but OH MY GOD. I feel like this is such a topical song, man who'd have thought... What a classic.
Such an amazing cover, I‘m regularly moved to tears because everyone‘s so into it! Also, the show in vienna was definitely in my top 5 at the chelsea, great vibes ♥️
You can stream Alex Lahey 'Welcome to the Black Parade' on Spotify spoti.fi/2UpMDcU and Apple Music apple.co/2NMJ7Y4
Why no Google music?
@@SimpPro101 it's on google play music as well
It's also available on Amazon Music Unlimited.
Not anymore.
Edit: It's back! Thank you
i don't suppose it's possible to own it in any legal way?
This cover was so good it made myspace a usable platform again
dead rn. ty.
So fucking funny. Holy shit.
Lmfao
This comment getting read on air today absolutely did me
Bwahahaha 🤣🤣🤣
i know people are talking abour Alex and G flip, but how good is the piano chick?! man she has pipes!!
SO GOOD!
Clio Renner, she stole the show. . .
love how G flip is having the time of her life
She is ALWAYS having the time of her life, whenever I see her do anything. It is so infectious
I want that job. :^)
I was coming down to write exactly that, she is loving life!
Don’t know who that is but I know exactly who you’re talking about
Who the fuck is G-Flip and how do u actually know these unknown people. Horrible name by the way.
I adore the girl with the cymbals. She's absolutely loving it and I'm loving her enthusiasm!
You're making me love life, girl... and I'm here for it.
Her name is G Flip. She’s a muso in her own right.
happiest operator of a symbol on this planet, her happiness is infectious.
@@sarahhill2114 and a bloody good one at that.
Adore G!! Their happiness is infectious xx
Maybe that’s what drew in the LA based real estate agent.
G Flip is the worlds happiest person throughout this performance
Jason Stein That’s her mate 👍
i'm gonna go ahead and assume that's the one with the crash cymbals because holy shit that grin
She always seems stoked as fuck. It’s bloody great
YeaaaH she's definitely rolling. Look at the size of her pupils
Almost as happy as when on stage with Kram at the one night stand.
0:56 the sheer joy on the percussionists face is just wonderful
That’s G Flip! They’re a muso in their own right. They’re non binary.
Gotta love G Flip
Crash cymbals will do that to you
I'm pretty sure Gflip just lives in the triple j studios
I was upset that G-Flip wasnt on the drums, but I am no longer upset after seeing her play the cymbals and peanut butter jar
Don't forget the shoo bop shoo bops
🙌 🔥
She’s playing timpani, every single drummer or percussionist will be freaking about playing timpani.
Don’t forget the timpani. You need to operate it with pedals in order to accurately tune it.
Weird opinion, this song is the Bohemian Rhapsody of the emo generation.
Not weird. Fitting. That whole album was Queen, reimagined dressed all in black.
of the 90s alternative kids generation
I... agree.
This and Muse (either United States of Eurasia or Knights of Cydonia)
Huh... You're right
Clio Renner's backup vocals are pure gold.
She’s very talented
God I still get chills Everytime I hear this song. What a masterpiece that whole concept album was.
Yep. Still a great listen from start to finish. Classic.
BUMPING HARD!
"Famous last words" is such a good album finisher.
Every minute. Down to the hidden track 'Blood' True Masterpiece that transcends genres. Fuck it, I'm off to blast it now.
I was never a fan before TBP, but I saw them when they toured the album and it totally rocked.
Im late to the party but this is one of the best covers ive ever heard. of any song. period. WOW.
Covering such an iconic song is quite a brave choice, but they did a great job. LOVE IT.
Iconic ? Bit of a stretch lol
@@Timboolin how isn't it iconic? It became the song of basically an entire generation. Who even after growing out of most other emo stuff still have unconditional love for it
Just because some tight Jean wearing kids still like the song years later dont make it iconic lol just makes it a good song
Iconic songs insist of songs like thriller and bohemian rhapsody. This is nowhere close to anything like that. Sorry
@@Timboolin yeah because Michael Jackson and Freddie Mercury are known for how baggy their jeans are. Frankly I don't see what makes them different except that when they came out there was less music to choose from, and that they've had longer to establish themselves.
This version was so good, it brought My Chemical Romance out of retirement
andy valente is this The Andy Valente from St Cloud MN ? KVSC Fetus etc. ???
@@ginormousbones nope, must be another of me out there
Now triple J has completely collapsed.... Everyones leaving
Awesome
i hate that ur right
What a great cover. It takes guts to cover such an iconic track. Truly the anthem of an entire generation.
The smile at the end is just pure ‘yeah, we owned that’.
Slap me with black eyeliner & call me Gerard, that is a tune 🤯
Gerard, you are correct ;)
Scott Harmes indeed
Mate, that was my CHILDHOOD! I absolutely loved and still love MY Chem
HELL YEAH!!!!
I've been following Alex Lahey for a while, and I remember this happening and screaming!
I recommend checking her other music out, she's amazing :)
Congrats, Lord Gerard has spoken
Yes he did
When your cover is so good it makes the original artist nostalgic for it. Big ups. This cover turned me on to this artist as a bonus.
@@quatreryukamime too, turned me hard enough to break ma pants and underwear
LMAO
@@quatreryukami MEEEEE AS FUK!!!
Insanely brave to cover this song, makes how they nailed it even more of an achievement. One of my favourite LAV's
3:35 isn’t anyone going to mention this magic “doowap doowap” piece? And that sensual ‘take a look at me ‘ 🙌
Nice move. This is most played part of the video 😂
Love the percussionist in the back ground just having the time of her life smashing those cymbals together haha. Great cover! And I'm a big My Chem fan so I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. :)
Check out the works of G Flip 💗💖💝
Their name is G Flip and an awesome artist as well. As the other commenter said, definitely check them out (if you haven’t already, since I just realised the comment was from 5 years ago 😂)
Gerard posted this on insta. That’s why I’m here :,)
A month later THEY BACK
Me too
Samee!! Btw love ur pfp
Ayy gerrard insta club :D
I'm pleasantly surprised by how many good covers of this song exist! I just found this after hearing Postmodern Jukebox do it, and that was after hearing Melodicka Bros 😁
I know I'm late for the party but I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. Not only because the nostalgia of this song hits hard but also because this is a very passionate and beautiful cover. Thank you for that!
I came here to say the same thing but you said it better. Hard to type with these blurry eyes
I get a garage band vibe from this in the best way, MCR would be proud
Yep even gerard posted it on insta 🖤
This is such an underrated song, should be mentioned alongside the all time great songs. I love how she stayed true to the melody and just let her voice be the point of difference, one of the best like a versions I have heard.
The A Train you know this isn’t her song... right??
@@masyn5819 no shit sherlock.
I got chills towards the end... this went HARD
one day I hope to be as happy as G Flip playing the cymbals
This is so good! I especially love it when an artist covers a song that was originally sung by someone of a different gender from theirs, yet still keep the gender of the original artist the same when mentioned in the song. That shows a lot of respect to the original artist.
G-flip looks like she walked into Disney, heard the Beatles, tasted bacon, and played with 100 puppies for the first time all at the same time.
wow
That is the most beautiful description I've ever heard
Some artists always do that lol, check out the video for Falkor by Covet and watch the drummer, half the comments on the video are about how happy the guy seems
This comment made my day….
I will never tire of G-Flip's never-ending excitement and happiness
This cover is so good it brought MCR Back together
True that
Seriously, my favourite song, and still gettin bumps after all these years especially when covered so damn well!!!
same hereee
I didn’t know how much I needed those “shoo-bop shoo-bops” until I heard them.
I literally have no clue who this band is and I was not expecting this. Just absolutely outstanding. She knocked it out of the park.
G Flip's expressions are just priceless 👌🏼🤣
At 3:50 her voice is full of emotion, gives me goosebumps, great cover 🥰
Damn, the drumming & the whole band together were magnificent & the backup singer on the keyboard, wow, Wow, WOW, absolutely FANTASTIC. Who is she, such a great voice??
This is the single best cover of Welcome To The Black Parade I have ever heard! Bravo, I will always remember this!
Alex Lahey is my favorite member of Children of Bodom.
Lol very few people will get this joke mate, it's hilarious btw
That right there is brilliant
God damnit. 😂
Underrated comment.
Was looking for this
I love to see the bands play the music live or at least live on video. The effort and energy put into this song is mind blowing. Excellent work.
The fact that these human beigns probably grew up listening to MCR during High School and now are giving a top notch cover is very wholesome.
I can feel in my soul the number of times this was belted out in a car by every one of these people
G’s face every time she uses the cymbals 😂😂
I know 😂😂😂😂
I wish I could meet a girl that’s as excited about me as she is about those cymbals
@@laserbeamlightning just have to let her clap your hands together every so often
I like how faithful to the original this is, while still being it’s own version somehow. Fantastic cover.
Jesus. Guys you are so talented. What energy. I am impressed! We want some more Alex Lahey. From France
Well, that was good.
Always nice to see a background singer (the keyboardist) who could hold their own as a soloist.
That was so fucking epic! Alex Lahey is a queen!
I love that G Flipp looks so happy to be there 😄
the girl on keyboard stole my heart
Love the totally rad bill and teds ‘ wyld stallions ‘ guitar moment around the 4:20 mark!
Most excellent 🤟
That moment at 5:10 when the look of her face says "Did we just nail that?" is priceless.
I’ve been freaking out about this on ig before I even watched it; Alex!!! G flip!!! Like is this a crossover episode!
also I hope this cover blows up, Alex and everyone deserves it
Salesman:*slaps parade*
This comes in Black.
None blacker
That's not how that meme goes, but good try 6/10.
I'll take two!!!
aw yeah, a man of culture
@@pronumeral1446 if you don't understand that memes evolve this way, then you have no business talking about memes in the first place.
G Flip's living her best life
This is the first time I've heard this song since my partner passed (it was his favourite song) and this was the best way to come back to MCR.
I think this is the first MCR cover I actually liked
Gisele Van Hounten I like that they didn’t change the melody or much at all. I think some people try and jazz covers up and ruin it!!
the TØP cover for Cancer wasn't bad. It wasn't nearly as good as the orignial version by MCR, but it ok.
@@steviwoodberry6433 I thought they added a nice ska touch in the bridge section. And while I like Ray Toro, this version definitely had better backing vocals.
Caleb Hyles and Jonathan Young did a pretty epic cover of Famous Last Words about a year ago. Check it out. You might like it I dunno.
I think joey Cooke with pmj nailed it with the new Orleans funeral styling of it
Such a great cover.
She, along with the whole band are very unassuming. Pure talent on display. Love it.
Absolutely nuts! Will be checking Spotify every single day til this shows up there.
It's up on spotify now!!!!
Alex did the song so much justice but G-Flip absolutely loving life and bringing ENERGY to the cover on the cymbals. Seriously iconic.
That was emotional, amazing, and unbelievably real.
What a "Like A Version" !!
I love her music so much i was so excited to find this cover
This might be my favorite Like a Version of all time. God I miss that band.
I saw Alex Lahey at Osheaga 2018 and have been a fan ever since. She was so good live!
This was a spiritual experience for a not-quite-ex-emo not gonna lie
I just discovered Alex Lahey today (been living stateside for 15 years). Holy **^&% She plane out ROCKS!!! What a performance. Gives me hope for the future... and Triple J (old Gen Xer just not digging whats been getting made lately). Just wow.
Me too! She's fantastic!
I never really like this song or gave it much of a chance until I heard this cover, i love this cover and it definitely let me hear the song in a new light
The rhythmic shift after ‘could not care at all’ always blows me away
I love this version so much!!!
Did anyone else notice the auxiliary percussionist?? She just looks like she is having so much fun the whole time! This would be a fun song to play, excellent cover too
Fortune favours the brave - and you have to be brave to do a cover of this! You guys did an amazing job. So much raw emotion.
This has got to be one of the best like a versions. Everyone involved gave 110% and it shows
I got the same chills I get from the original, damn this is great-I've gotta check out Alex's music now
Alex Lahey is so amazing
This cover makes me so happy I want to put on eyeliner and cry. >:(
Alex’s smile at the end is worth living for.
Every time I watch this video it gives me chills and makes me smile, This is The BEST!!
Wow wow wow! Absolutely crushed it. Totally doing the song justice and then some.
Absolutely killed it! Never heard of Alex but I'm an OG MCR fan a la 2001. What a smashing cover!!!
I can't even hande this.... Alex, G & Clio are perfect together 😍🤯 I really hope they do more, that was everything I didn't know I needed 🙏
I feel like im watching a Nickelodeon kids rock band make it big and it's kind of heartwarming. I don't know how old these guys are but their vibe brings me back to my highschool days preforming this same song for a talent show back in the day.

I've watched everyday for a month or more now. Just wow!! I would fly to Australia to see her live and perform it.
Everything about that was epic! One of my favorite all time LAV's
G Flip looks like they're having the absolute best time! Love it!
my faith in humanity has officially been restored
Aria McKenna amen!
Alex has the most lovely smile at the end of it Lights her up
This was outstanding. Some people talk about things they never knew they needed, but... I've always known I needed this.
THIS SLAPS i already loved alex and now i love her even more
This song is a classic !!!! She was amazing….. Carry on!!!!!!
There's some songs that are so beloved that no matter how good the cover there will always be a pushback. I think if you're going to cover one of these, this is the best way to do it, you can see they gave it their all and had fun with it. That's why it's such a great cover.
Epic. Epic. Epic. Such an important song. So brilliantly performed. ❤❤❤
The girl in the black and white striped long sleeve knows what's up.
This is mad, she’s so talented! Meanwhile g flip living her best life over there 😂
The Black Parade Live album was the first one I ever listened to completely without skipping. I'm barely capable of that today.
I like this version but OH MY GOD. I feel like this is such a topical song, man who'd have thought... What a classic.
brb editing this into my Myspace page
MySpace didn’t hear that in a while
Such an amazing cover, I‘m regularly moved to tears because everyone‘s so into it!
Also, the show in vienna was definitely in my top 5 at the chelsea, great vibes ♥️
When I heard this on the radio I thought they were kidding about the rice in the peanut butter jar.
Alex....you and your band did MCR proud!!! I will love MCR til I die, and you gave me chills ..thank you!!!
Before watch : that's okay usually the cover of triple j different than the original
After watch: damn i've been g noted again.....
geez probs the best cover for this song on youtube to date!
g-flip is fucken loving, life! such great energy that lady!!
They’re having so much fun. How can you not
