Ooh, thanks for that. I can understand 'Cancer' making people talk, but I hope people don't critisize it. It's heart-breaking, but it's strangely beautiful. I heard it live the very first time they ever performed it and I cried because I was so touched by it. I hope it doesn't get slated just for being honest.

I wouldn't call it the darkest song ever, maybe the darkest MCR song yet...
I really don't see whats so controversal about the song either, and its not like I'm a stranger to the disease...

people need to face reality. Cancer is REAL. I don't know why it's such a controversy. People just need to come to face with what's actually going on in the world.

I love it how they're called EMO ROCKERS. I hate it how they get labeled emo or even get labeled, they have a very unique sound.

Thats the very first thing I noticed. I saw it and i screamed THEY ARE NOT EMO.

But I think people are taking it too seriously. I mean, there have been SO many other songs that are controversial once you listen to what the singer is saying. People are ridiculing this one.. and why? Go make fun of sweet home alabama, that's controversial.

JEEEZE

Oh, like it really matter whether they're emo or not, seriously guys. We know they're not and that's all we need.

The song is quite direct, but that's why I love it, I'm very proud of them for putting such song on their album.

to be honest it really doesnt bother me what they get called, we all know they are amazing and thats all that matters, and if they continue to insist on calling them emo then the genera will only be re-defined as it has been already since the first time it was used.
