What Do You See When You Hear....

for the sharpest lives, i imagine mcr singing in the utah salt flats. i don't know why. the melody just... yeah.
for helena, i imagine this old hotel, like decorated in a crossover version of like a victorian-era and greecian stuff. but its like this black-drenched wedding. if you took a wedding, and replaced all the white with black, thats what's in my head. i have it in my head that helena is getting married in this black dress and gerard shows up next to her and uncovers her face. then everything all kind of collapses (like in the idly video thing where the two people fall down) and theres nothing left, just gerard and helena's veil. he looks toward the camera, and the camera zooms in on his face, and a single tear falls down his cheek. happy, right?
just my thoughts.

When I hear Sleep, I picture a little girl in a big armchair and she's watching a TV show. You know at the beginning where it has some guy talking, and it keeps jumping - well I picture that as someone on an interview on an old eighties TV and when his voice goes high, there's this little evil thing strangling him while he's talking (woot).

And then Gerard appears to the little girl, sort of fuzzy like in Smile Like You Mean It by the Killers, and he sort of sings the song to her.
Sweet, isn't it?

When I Hear Our Lady Of Sorrows,I Think Of Two Teenagers Running Away Together Because They Are Misunderstood

^ Way sweet.

When I hear Headfirst for Halos, I always see a sick version of Peter Pan play out in my head.

Awesome thread!


My most vivid is Cemetary Drive. I see a couple sitting around an empty cemetary at night just talking to each other and telling their stories. There is a girl who eventually kills herself in a bathroom at a gas station or somewhere.

Also in The End I see just all the emotion and characters of tbp swirling around Gerard playing acoustic guitar in black and white.

In Demolition Lovers, I see a really young version of Gerard standing in the middle of a desert and it starts to rain. The sky has a purplish tint and he's looking over a cliff edge. I don't know, it's kind of abstract.

Also, in To The End, I imagine Gerard and the rest of the band playing in a really dark mansion with blood red carpets and long winding hallways. Kind of like, the Haunted Mansion from Disney. x]

For 'Hell Kid, I see Gerard strutting his stuff down the higstreet in a pretty dress, all dolled up. xD

Helena- a car accident in the rain
Prison- Prison (Oh gee, I wonder what makes me think of that XD)
House of Wolves- Dark streets, with ambulances and blood on alley way walls
The Jetset Life- "Check into the Hotel Bella Muerta": A hotel next to a forest. "Lost in the prescription"- a phamacy. There's more to this one, but I'll leave it there
Cemetery Drive- a funeral
This Is The Best Day Ever- Escaping from a hospital and ending up at an amusement park

I'll leave it there for now.

For Prison, I see Bert and Gee doing, uh, questionable things to each other.

For Desolation Row, proving that I am a show choir geek, I see a perfectly choreographed lyrical dance to the song. It'd have a lot of really sexy moves (such as "the other's in his pants" and "here comes Romeo moaning" ) and solo parts, and it would be really awesome. I could do it line by line, but I haven't made the whole thing up yet in my head.

And for basically the entire album The Black Parade, I have an entire musical planned out, with lots of awesome choreography. There, me being a show choir person again. There would also be black and white costumes, but with lots of colored lights that would change for each song. Each song would have a character, just about. For example, Mama would have a soldier singing it, The End would have a character (almost like Gerard) that I have just been calling "The Narrator", Dead! would have lots of crazy lights, kick lines, and a doctor and the Narrator would basically be singing it to the Patient, and so on...

For some reason, I always picture Cemetery Drive as a music video, very similar to the Ghost of You, with similar costumes. I don't know why, but I always picture it around the same time period as well.

When I hear Give 'Em Hell, Kid I think of MCR.

Honey makes me think of Gerard being really pissed off, screaming and being mad.

Sleep (which I'm listening now xd) makes me see soldiers in the trenches and when Gee starts singing I see him as a soldier singing while he's yeah.. fighting and stuff but you don't see it very well like in a dream
and anywhere in the song I see Gee's eyes open and it's zoomed out so you see whole Gee lying on a bed while he's moving his hands to his throath and you see he doesn't get enough oxygen anymore and.. the rest I don't know xd

When I listen to Sleep, I see a bunch of werewolves and zombies and vampires and other various creatures of the night out having a drink at a bar. O.o
