I've been doing a lot of singing along - loudly if not tunefully - to MCR lately. There are only a few sections of the odd song to which I don't know the words, or so I thought till I realised yesterday that I really wasn't that familiar with Bury Me In Black from Life on the Murder Scene. It was almost like having new material!

I do think Gerard is an inspired lyricist. Very often, they're just obscure enough - he has said that he doesn't like to spell everything out in lyrics - to be tantalisingly allusive. And the words flow well, with the stresses and rhymes in the right places, and mesh well with the music too. Oh yes, I'm smitten. :)
