Song of the Moment LXIX: My Chemical Romance’s “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”

I read my post from yesterday, and… man, I sounded so sad. And you know what? My time for sadness is done for now, and I need to get back up. I can’t stay sad for long.

To fuel myself and bounce back again, I’m listening to an absolute banger, the ferocious “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” by My Chemical Romance. It’s my favorite song from their fourth studio album Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys.

And a pro wrestling trivia: “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)” is the theme song of WWE’s Tables, Ladders & Chairs PPV event in 2010. I’m pleasantly surprised that an MCR song became a song for a WWE event.

The amazing music video of My Chemical Romance’s “Na Na Na (Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na)”.

The weekend is almost here. Let’s fucking go.

Song of the Moment LXVIII: My Chemical Romance’s “Disenchanted”

This week, I have decided to listen more to one of my favorite bands when I was in high school, My Chemical Romance. And yesterday, I have been listening to their iconic third studio album, The Black Parade.

Setting aside The Black Parade album’s concept around the character “The Patient”, whenever I listen to the album, I remember my last few months in high school. I remember the day I brought the album on campus discreetly and played it inside our classroom. I remember an old friend (a My Chemical Romance fan since day one) who recommended me to listen to the band’s first album I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, and I did so long after. And I remember the night when I wrote the good and bad parts of my senior prom on my first blog, I was drinking an ice-cold Coca-Cola, and track twelve of the album (and one of my favorite tracks as well), “Disenchanted”, was playing in the background.

Oh, the memories. And tonight, “Disenchanted”, is on repeat.

My Chemical Romance’s “Disenchanted”.

That is all.

Song of the Moment LXV: Them Crooked Vultures’ “Mind Eraser, No Chaser”

I said I would listen to at least one different music artist per week, and last Monday I listened to all of Spice Girls’ studio albums. (Yes, I listen to Spice Girls. Deal with it.) But because January 14 is Dave Grohl’s birthday, I had to set the iconic English girl group aside and listen more to the bands throughout Mr. Grohl’s career – iconic grunge band Nirvana, my favorite band of all time Foo Fighters, and my favorite rock supergroup Them Crooked Vultures.

As I type this, I’m drinking my favorite Jack and Coke Zero while listening to “Mind Eraser, No Chaser”, the second song from Them Crooked Vultures’ self-titled debut (and only) album and my favorite song from them. Mr. Grohl’s team-up with Josh Homme of Queens of the Stone Age and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin is mind-blowing. I hope they will reunite and make another record.

Belated happiest birthday to Dave Grohl!
