that god damn emo music!

[Sephex]

Well, my revolution of Crock Runk is on hold here, so let me tell you what I think of some emo music.

I don't have a problem with overdramatic lyrics--as long as you don't do it in almost every song. Someone pointed out in this thread that it is very redundant when you talk about how the same girl broke up with you across the same album (on a different but similar note, this is the same reason why I avoided listening to Eminem's newer material: You hate Kim--WE GET IT!).

It's like most emo bands try to be angsty for the sake of being angsty. It just comes off as something fake in the end. That or you are starving for attention (you think being recognized by mass media and a huge fan base would cure lonliness).

ok i get it sum of you dont really care about this entire emo thing. but what really gets me pissed off is the kids who try to "convert" you to being an emoist. ha ha. there are these girls that keep on trying to get me to be all well.... uh.... like them. ya know what i mean? and it is really agrivating always hearin,"listen to such and such." it really makes me wanna yell at them.

arrrgh! you know how many time i herd My Chemical Romance's helena?
Man I herd it enough to blow my frekin' brains!!!!!!! Ok I know a lot of you guys like MCR a lot but i just needed to get this crap off my chest.

If you don't like, why on earth do you listen to it?

Some people need a reason to piss and moan :D

Wait... isn't that the Emo motto? Oh my... the irony.

[fire_of_avalon]

I just don't understand complaining about something you don't like. Nobody makes you have anything to do with it besides you. So just don't deal with it.

MTV pounded Helena into my brain with a sledgehammer.

I pounded it in my head on my own. I like that song. ^_^

Emoman (It's Not Easy)
(to the tune of "Superman (It's Not Easy)" by Five for Fighting

I just sit and cry,
I am so naive,
I'm just out to find,
A Get Up Kids EP,

I'm more than a jock,
And more than a prep,
I listen to hardcore <img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"><img src="/xxx.gif"> so watch your step,
And it's not easy to be e-mo.

I wish that I could sing,
Chris Caberra's sweet,
Find a way to lie,
About a chick I'll never meet,

I sound like a girl,
Maybe you should leave,
Even emo kids are allowed to breed,
I may be disturbed,
But won't you just see,
Some green thick wool sweaters are on me,
It's not easy to be e-mo

Down again, away, away from me,
It's not alright,
Going to see Bright Eyes tonight,
I'm not crying...
It's in the air.

All my friends, they cry,
They are so naive,
I wish that I'd just die,
With hearts between my knees,

Just quote me on that,
'Cuz I am so deep,
Taken from a nine-year old on a city street,
I'm only a boy,
With old thick black specs,
Looking for inner peace inside of me,
Inside of me,
Inside of me,
Inside of me,
Inside of me,

I'm only a kid,
No phony ID,
I'm only a kid,
Looking for CDs,
I'm only a kid,
I don't have VD,
It's not easy...

It's not easy to be emo

I'm still not even sure what emo music is.

[eestlinc]

I'd suspend my distaste for crappy music momentarily if it allowed me to get with some emo girls. i'd probably get sick of them really quickly, though.

Here's a good saying, "How can music you poor your heart and soul into not be emotional." So technically all music is emo. Emo is short for emotional. All music is emotional whether you admit it or not.

But talking about emo as in the genre. I'm not a big fan of it. A lot of it is over-rated. I like some though. I can't stand My Chemical Romance. I don't care if other people like them, I just don't.

Ska is the greatest music ever. Depressed emo kids need to listen to The Aquabats, they'd feel better. Weee.
