I know that MCR have dramatically changed many peoples lives and probably helped give them hope to stay alive but there are so many people who just say it because other people do, as if it's gonna make them seem cooler or something.
I hope I make sense lolz
Do you think the phrase "My Chemical Romance saved my life" is over used?
A lot of People say that too many people have said it and it is now "cliche" or "overused" what do you think?

but for me its a true statement. My Chemical Romance has definitely saved my life. and i mean it too. But people who say it just to say it, they dont know real pain and what its like to have hope again, so stop freakin saying it if you dont actually mean it.
we as fans need to stop overusing the term 'mcr saves lives' becasue then it would come to a point that .. it would seem like we dont mean it ..
if mcr really (and i stress really) did save your life .. feel free to share it to the world .. but for kids who mcr hasnt really saved you life .. dont use the term
you can still be a huge fan to mcr if they havent ... having them not save your life dosent mean your less of a fan to someone who the band has saved a life for
i dont use the whole 'mcr saves lives term' mainly becasue .. my life never needed saving . but it needed alot of improving .. and and tahts what mcr has done for me ...
many people say that only just to stick to the status
but other people say that because they really mean it
they know mcr change their lives
If it's actually true, then it isn't a cliche; but when people use it as a cliche, just stating that they love my chem, then it becomes unnecescary.
I hope I make sense lolz
no offence to any of the fans that im about to mention, but those that have heard a few songs, or just their latest album n r all like "OMG MCR saved my life!" they didnt.
it was the first two albums that said it was ok to be different and showed that there are others that can make something of themselves through difficult times, the latest album is a concept album, not one about their feelings. it's the first two albums, possibly even just the first that "saved lives" not the third.
sorry to anyone i've offended with this.
anyone think different?
But as long as it is true, means alot.
yes, way to many ppl say it since LOTMS came out.
no, it's one of the big parts of what the purpose of this band it. and obviously it's working! =]
But my chemical romance does, and did save many lives, but today it's used freely. Mcr saved me, they saved me, oh mcr.
Its being stated from people who could care the fuck less about mcr.
They're music, or the fans.
THey say it so freely, and thats why its overused, but not meaningless. Because they honestly did, save my life. :]
idk
For this reason and more, I honeslty think the phrase " My Chemical Romance save my life" in NOT over used!
[ I know there is a level of amibiguty in my statment but I know that most will know wha i am talikng about.]
But don't just go around saying it for the hell of it when it's not true for you, because it gets really annoying. It IS possible for you to like a band without them having 'saved your life.' If you feel strongly about MCR's music, but haven't been brought back from the edge because of it, people aren't going to shun you. It doesn't make people any less of a fan because of it.
