    :eek:. What a strange coincidence. Honestly though, I don't think any one should cover Under Pressure. But it's going to a good cause so I won't complain that much.

    New bands (Especially Emo Bands) covering classics makes me really made. Limp Bizkit fucked up with "Behind Blue Eye" and I'm sure KoRn will fuck up "Head Like A Hole" too. ;)

    Just like every other band out there that's currently covering a NIN song... all three thousand of them. :innocent:

    This song is okay... doesn't hold a candle to the original though.

    > /kill

    Wow, I play online games too much.

    I don't necessarily call it emo, because everyone gets emotional about their music. Unless, of course, you're 50 Cent. Please see Mars Volta quote in signature.

    So instead of emo, let's just call it crappy music. :innocent:

    Just kidding.

    But the song is still a disgrace to the originals.

    WHAT?!?!

    FUCK NO!

    No,no no no, nonono!

    Under Pressure is a CLASSIC... it's bad enough that Vanilla Ice stole the first 8 bars but a cver done by ANYONE is absolutely unacceptable.

    Maybe you should listen to it first, with an open mind, before assuming it sucked.

    I'll say that it was a lot better than I expected.

    hmmmmmmmm,

    I much listen to what you guys call "emo" rather than "metal."
    At least they experiment beyond-bass, guitar,drums.

    As for My chemical romance covering under pressure......yeah I dont like it when people cover originals and release them as singles.....but its for a good cause and it may actually sound cool. And lastly, who cares......

    Can't wait for it to get released, It was amazing live with both bands on stage playing it, it should be even better in a recording. Plus, the proceeds are going to charity, so I'll be buying the single.

    I'm surprised to see all the MCR/Used haters in here. First of all, remakes and covers are done all the time, but I don't agree with much any of them being released and sold, but since the money for this song will go to those who are suffering in Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka, Thailand, etc., I think it's okay. Besides, I like MCR and the Used a whole lot so I'll be interested to hear it. Just because you don't like MCR and/or the Used doesn't mean you need to come and here and start quoting insults from movies [I just vomited in my mouth a little: how original... :rolleyes: ]

    Dude, it's because My Chemical Romance are horrible is probably why a lot of people are posting here. Don't even get me started on the lyrics to their songs. Or the instrumentals. Or the fact that the lead singer looks like a fucking WOMAN.
