music is music in my opinion. each person listening to it has a different view on it and gets a different meaning. but I mean i'm no fan of 'mcr' and they are getting classified emo? I doubt they are premoting emo, as far as I remember Gerard actually slagged emo in a magazine interview but singing the lyrics 'i'm not okay' is hardly gonna make people feel good.personally I thought the emo phase died a long while ago,but looking round bebo and there are tonnes of people like hannah with 'me, myself and I's' like ....'i'm emo ...so what' surely a cry out for attention?I wouldn't blame music in anyway,people have issues and parents who don't know their kids will always blame something. If i'm ever in a bad mood my mum suggests it because I listen to way too much metal which is a pile of crap.Every good artist I can think of has covered an emotional number of some sort I mean look at the classics: Guns 'n' Roses - November Rain, Metallica - Nothing Else Matters, Biffy Clyro - Machines these songs didn't make people wanna hang themselves did it?rest in peace Hannah x
