19:40 interviewer: wow that’s heavy dude gerard: ehuehuehueh

[@cursedspirit9]

Can't believe this is 20 years old 🥲

[@antoniobarrera1983]

Was Gerard through a hard time 20 years ago?

[@KamiloPerez06]

20 years isn’t thaaat much, really

[@fatalimmortality801]

the xs on gerards hands make me oddly happy knowing he was trying to stay sober but sad knowing he was struggling and obviously had a huge drop just after this

[@aekarinborrirak4708]

it makes me sad that mikey talks about how he doesnt get why people would end their lives and then tbp comes in and mikey becomes suicidal and depressed and almosts ends himself

[@sistert0sleep]

i know right, that makes me cry, even gerard was suicidal on this period i don't know why mikey said that:(

[@tomgg8758]

I love that even though Mikie talks about being introverted he was able to overcome that and be part of something amazing c: really great interview

[@bradniblock]

Fun thing, Midtown and Thursday opened for My Chemical Romance’s sold out arena shows. Thursday and midtown helped MCR at their early career. Now MCR are helping them out

[@dcfromthev]

7:35 I really like how Gerard included Eric here, that shows some real emotional intelligence, and a relatability I so deeply long for in other people. Unfortunately, this is a very rare quality. I think I would get along perfectly with Gerard and Mikey, and Eric for that matter. Great video thanks!

[@natalie_rose2861]

this is my favorite MCR interview. I've never seen mikey talk so much. Every time I watch 1 of these I hope he's gonna speak & end up disappointed but not disappointed this time sucka!

[@emilyd871]

He almost looks the same now, just different hair colour, incredible.

[@KamiloPerez06]

2004 isn’t that far as it seems

"Obviously the song (Vampires) is about being alcoholic." I honestly thought it was all about vampires, I had no idea, haha! (at like 3:13 or something)

[@watersnake5319]

I love knowing that some of the songs are actually about their real lives. I've always interpreted them way. And G just said Vampires is about alcoholism. I'll listen to it differently now.

[@caifabe8050]

2:29 i love this part. Gerard really, truly cares about his fans and his friends and you can tell from the way he talks about this situation

[@floralkatie]

the suicide question was a bit jarring i can't lie. good interview though. loved hearing about the inspiration for the cover art for three cheers

Also they gave a different answer for how and why the band got started. Later interviews he always says it came out of 9/11 and wanting to make a difference and send a message.

"Removing women violently" and I thought Gerard was a feminist

[@caifabe8050]

i love how Gee literally says in the Bullets booklet when he thanks his then-girlfriend "sorry i wrote all those songs about killing you. i hope the last one makes up for it"

[@0mahami0]

he literally said it's more abt losing women than abt removing women violently, implying that it might come off like that but it's not the case 💀💀
