Quotes about Gerard Way
[edit]- When people think of emo, the My Chemical Romance frontman usually comes to the front of mind because of his immense impact on the genre. Taking notes from Queen and Britpop, Way is a phenomenal storyteller whose theatrical, soul-baring performances make MCR’s songs feel like high drama. From the melodic “Early Sunsets Over Monroeville” to the experimental cabaret banger “Mama,” Way’s vocals ripple with emotional intensity and passion, leaning into darkness as much as hope. Quite simply, no other singer could fit this band.
