New Songs

Toivoa.:

I don't get what is wrong with a romantic song.
Something incredible happened in his life. He doesn't feel as angry as he did when he wrote Bullets and Revenge. You can't stop the man from growing up and learning you know.
And who says this can't be a punk rock album because there is a soft song on it.
I LOVE romance.
Great new song guys!

I agree

The Conductor:

OMG. the newest song, wow. It's so beautiful. It brought me to tears it's so amazing.

did the same to me. It's soo beautiful.

my attempt at stay lyrics (very botched, i know)

"say...really know enough to play
to cast ___ off
___
and all the moving
care, movement
and all the memory
____
if i meant
the world to you

(chorus)
would you stay right here?
then i'll tell you
that someone out there loves you
stay right here.
then i'll tell you
that someone out there loves you
after all
(end chorus)

___it's easier alone (not so sure about this line)
and cast this ___ off
___
and if you're walking out the door
i'll stop you
___
and if you turn to me
i'll say

could you stay right here
then i'll tell you
that someone out there loves you
stay right here
then i'll tell you
someone out there loves you

is it not the one, i'm not the one,
well then,
is there another one who, another one
who cares?
is it not the one, i'm not the one,
now then,
is there another one who, another one
who cares?

and would you dance with me?
cuz i can't make you now!

(solo)

and if you stay right here
then i'll tell you
that someone out there loves you

is it not the one, i'm not the one
now then,
is there another one now, another one,
who cares?

and if i'm not the one, i'm not the one
now then,
is there another one now, another one
who cares!?"

Great new song guys!

Took the words right out of my mouth.
Lovely songs!
Does anyone else really want Sister To Sleep on the new album?

I've never heard Sister to Sleep... does anyone have it?

It's a true change for them to start writing about romance...but hey MCR is always full of suprises for us! I really enjoyed the songs..and thank you for whoever posted to link to download it!

I love both of the new songs. And about them talking about doing a 'punk' record - it's still not impossible, two songs doesn't make a whole record. And what's wrong with love songs? But I honestly can't imagine them making a record only with songs in this style.

these new songs sounds like they were written by a 14 year old girl. they suck. i'm disappointed.

"stay" is decent. but eh.

Well if they can turn "Shut Up and Play" into a crappy love song called "Disenchanted" then they might have the hope of turning these crappy love songs into something real when they record.

I like sister to sleep,stay and the newest song
I think it's okay to put lovesongs on their record, and it would be great if they'd made a record like bullets and revenge. We all know that they've all improved, and Gee's feelings have changed.
I'm sure that they can make those new songs better, as Gee wrote in the TBP LE booklet, they changed welcome a lot and it sounded better afterwards.
so it might sound better when they'd put it on their next record.

I don't think that their newest song is crappy, it's just something new

ohh mcr is the best band

okay so here is my opinion:
people change.
song writing changes.
the song is beautiful.

fave line:
are you thinking of me... can we both be ugly

agree, that was what I was trying to say, but I wrote it too long I guess

I wouldn't really consider "Disenchanted" to be a love song. (I also don't think it's crappy, but everyone is entitled to their opinions)

"Disenchanted", to me, is exactly that. It's a not-quite-middle-aged person looking back on their life and what they've done, then looking forward to what's coming next, and realizing that what they thought was important really wasn't, and what's coming next isn't as exciting as it could have been.

I only recently heard "Shut Up And Play" and while I like it, I prefer "Disenchanted" with all the finishing touches. And I posted elsewhere, what's out there now are good *starts* for songs. I'm sure if and when they make it to a record, we'll be able to recognize elements from what we have now, but be pleasantly surprised with how they change them into full-fledged songs.

I don't think the song is crappy, and I don't have a problem with Gerard being in love and all that...
but just don't like the song.
its just not my style... i'm more of a Bullets girl i guess...
i like songs with a bit of darkness in them...

anyway, it doesn't matter whether we like it or not, its a song for now, and if the guys want to play it, good luck to them!

besides, who says its even going to make the next record? it might never be released!

Oh I definitely do! I adore it!

I'm not too fond of Stay. It sounds a little generic to me. But I like the simple piano in the new one. It's nice.

I'm really proud of the guys. It takes some balls to change like that, and I like the new direction. And furthermore, "Disenchanted" is a beautiful song that never fails to cheer me up.
