Am I crazy to say that I kind of like it when I hear MCR songs on commercials...?
MCR is out to be heard by as many people as possible, so yay for commercials.

They played the chorus of 'The Black Parade' in one of the opening scenes of Hollyoaks (UK) last week. I thought it was kinda cool to hear it where i wasnt expecting it.

I think it feels weird to hear MCR on tv, and I don't know that it actually helps promote the band. Either people already know who does the song and are already fans, or they don't and they aren't. I don't think they're sell-outs, cuz I love them no matter what, but it is definitely weird.

I saw it, I cane running into the living room adn was like "WTF!?"
Its not like him singing or anything its just the opening piano thing form Welcome To The Black Parade.

I dont think theyve sold out, Ive seen many other band's music been used like that, its not a very good example but Angels and Airwaves music was used as something like that too.

And how about the new Cell Phone comercial when the guy is like "And My Chemicam Romance" I was like "..weird.."

Did anyone else see the commercial where they used "Mama" for the Sopranos?
I thought it was so weird.
I don't know why I feel so protective of them, but I don't want everyone to know about them, for some reason.

I guess I'm just selfish. ;D

I was reading AP and there was a part about bands being "sell outs" and it made a good point about how bands nowadays almost have to be sellouts to make money. With all this reselling and burning CD's and downloading for free it's bound to happen.
They're a big band, it's not just us anymore.
Though I would like it to be.

i saw mcr in a fuse commercial. it's not their song though. just a bunch of clips from all different music videos. it's a really good commercial actually. anyone know what i'm talking about? also, i remember seeing that friday night lights commercial at the movie theater way back in december. my friend and i were just talking and all of a sudden we hear the music. at first we were like, "wtf? wttbp in a commercial for a show about FOOTBALL?" then, we thought it was kinda funny. i think it's cool when i hear mcr in commercials. it actually makes me want to watch the show. i think they're trying to market things toward mcr fans. weird.

I saw that Soprano's commercial a couple of months ago when I was on vaca. It was on the hotel TV screen and I screamed and jumped on the bed like a little girl, haha.
Regardless of how... weird I thought it was (I don't see such an obvious link between Tony Soprano and My Chem) I like hearing MCR mentioned/being played on commercials... it makes me feel special for some reason and I don't know why exactly haha. I blame it on my dorkiness... there really is nothing else to blame it on except for MCR'S COMPLETE AWESOMENESS.
Tehee.

The only reason I'm upset about it being on a commercial for a soap opera or a show about football is because it only encourages the teenies.

But seriously, it's kinda cool. They used a My Chemical Romance song to some clips of the Nascar race I was watching a while ago. before they go to commercial, they put a bunch of clips of recent wrecks during the race and stuff to music and they used an MCR song. I freaked. I was like "Yes! My Chemical Romance has now been heard by a bunch of rednecks!" and my grandma laughed at me.

its pretty surprising to hear mcr during commericals cause its unexpected to hear that

I heard FLW on an advert once. Cant remember what. MCR would know about it because if a band has there music on and advert/tv programme they get paid each time their song is used.

and of course, they play the piano cover on some of those Fuse commercials for 'The Worm' website.
