So, tonight
cursive told me to come up with a list of ten emoboyz songs and she'd listen to them the whole way through. And dude, I'm not stupid, so I jumped at the chance to pimp her into bandslash introduce her to my latest obsession, so I've culled through my 400-song emoboyz playlist and picked 10 of the songs I think she's least likely to run screaming away from. :D
I haven't included any Panic songs because I'm not certain they're Isolde's cup of tea musically. I'll hit her with those after she succumbs to these. *looks innocent* I've also linked to YouTube versions of the music videos where applicable because believe me, these boys know how to do fantatstic music videos. These songs will be left up for one week and then I'll take them down. So if anyone else would like to be pimped into Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance.... :D
We've Got A Big Mess On Our Hands - The Academy Is (
video on YouTube featuring evil!Bill Beckett *g*)
I've got that lefty curse
Where everything that I do is flipped
and awkwardly reversed
You're seldom known and barely missed
I always put myself
in destructive situations
I need oxygen
to be exposed where no one goes
Where no one's been
When it all comes crashing...
The Church of Hot Addiction - Cobra Starship (
video on YouTube featuring furry sex. Yes. Furries. *g*)
Just let me tell you
Hey, you gotta get the Cobra bless now
You're really only selling sex now
But I can pay
The price you charge for what I need
Because I,
I've got a nasty new compulsion
And you've already got a notion
Of what I need
So give it, just give it,
Just give it to me
You're willing,
I'm waiting.
Turn out the lights
Hum Hallelujah - Fall Out Boy (this I included for the sampling of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah in it)
One foot in your bedroom
And one foot out the door
Sometimes we take chances
Sometimes we take pills
I could write it better than you ever felt it
So hum hallelujah
Just off the key of reason
I thought I loved you
But it was just how you looked in the light
A teenage vow in a parking lot
Til tonight do us part
I sing the blues
And swallow them too
A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More Touch Me - Fall Out Boy (
video on YouTube featuring dandy vampires. Yes. Dandy vampires. I LOVE THESE BOYS.)
I'm sleeping on your folk's porch again, dreaming
She said, she said, she said, "Why don't you just drop dead?"
I don't blame you for being you
But you can't blame me for hating it
So say it, what are you waiting for?
Kiss her! Kiss her!
I set my clocks early 'cause I know I'm always late
The Take Over, The Break's Over - Fall Out Boy (
video on YouTube featuring Hemingway--Pete's dog--dreaming about Patrick Stump being a steak. PEOPLE, THEY JUST HAND CRACK LIKE THIS TO US. ON A PLATTER.)
They say your head could be a prison,
Then these are just conjugal visits,
People will dissect us till this doesnt mean a thing anymore
Dont pretend you ever forgot about me.
Dance, Dance - Fall Out Boy (
video on YouTube featuring the boys as nerds. Well. I mean nerdy than usual. *G*)
I'm two quarters and a heart down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by
Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress, love
I'm Not Okay (live) - My Chemical Romance (
video on YouTube featuring the boys in prep school--OH MY GOD I LOVE THIS VIDEO SO MUCH.)
Well if you wanted honesty, that's all you had to say.
I never want to let you down or have you go, it's better off this way.
For all the dirty looks, the photographs your boyfriend took,
Remember when you broke your foot from jumping out the second floor?
Welcome To The Black Parade - My Chemical Romance (
video on YouTube in the style of German Expressionist cinema.)
When I was a young boy,
My father took me into the city
To see a marching band.
He said, "Son when
You grow up,
Would you be
The savior of the broken,
The beaten and the damned?"
He said, "Will you
Defeat them, your demons,
And all the non believers,
The plans that they have made?
Because one day I'll leave you,
A phantom to lead you in the summer,
To join the black parade."
Teenagers - My Chemical Romance (
video on YouTube in which MCR pays homage to Smells Like Teen Spirit.)
They say now teenagers scare
The living shit out of me
They could care less
As long as someone'll bleed
So darken your clothes
or strike a violent pose
Maybe they’ll leave you alone, but not me
The boys and girls in the clique
The awful names that they stick
You’re never gonna fit in much, kid
But if you’re troubled and hurt
What you've got under your shirt
Will make them pay for the things that they did
House of Wolves - My Chemical Romance
You play ring around the ambulance,
Well like you never gave a care.
So get the choir boys around you,
It's a compliment, I swear.
And I said, ashes to ashes, we all fall down,
I wanna hear you sing the praise,
I said, *wretches to ashes, we all fall down,
We got innocence for days!
Under Pressure - My Chemical Romance/The Used (okay, yes, yes, this is techinically an eleventh track, but we'll just call it a bonus, right? Plus
cursive likes Bowie and it's a Bowie cover, so.... *G*)
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Scream 'Let me out'
Pray tomorrow takes me higher
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
I keep coming up with love
but it's so slashed and torn
And here are a couple more YouTube videos just because... *G*
