#so many things #this is one my ways to let it out <3 #i have a chem thing tomorrow and i’m screaming inside (1) #i have to review and practice lots of the material because i’m still very much BAD at it all in one night :TONIGHT (2) #i dread the moment next week starts when i’m back in my normal schedule of classes again because wooho look what i’ve reaped from those fiv #days of dispensation!!!! absolutely nothing. (3) #anyways. i also. have started liking on an actual real life person again for some reason and it’s been a torture #but i’ve been trying not to think about it (lie) (i think about it way too much & actually have started writing about it & it’s eughh) (4) #i have plenty of regret playing in my head over and over (5) #i’m pretty sure a certain person dislikes me and that it’s actually justified because oh my godd :/ (6) #okay goodbye 🫶🏽 #chem tag #got lovestruck went straight to my head #nadirants #OH AND ALSO #i already feel nostalgic about the people i have just become close with this week ://///(7)

this post is about "father", a song name attributed to a few existing black parade songs.

first, it isnt an unreleased song. the oct 2006 comments under the title's page on songmeanings.com tell a short story of how the user who added the song to the website grabbed it off of limewire. the lyrics were originally for "the end", as indicated by another commenter. the original poster said limewire mislabeled "the end" as "father" then edited the lyrics to be what they are now -- an off sample of "i dont love you". they source the mcrmymusic myspace page for the new lyrics. i can not find any post on the site about it.

"father" is also mentioned in the songfacts.com page for "the end", by both bailey from nj and indigo from australia. indigo says: "I always thought [The End] was called Father until i bought the actual cd and it was changed to The End." i think this may be consequence of limewire, or similar sites / programs, mislabeling the song. all these varied accounts point to the same conclusion that "the end" was called "father" at some point.

so, where did this mislabeling come from?

gerard way introduced a song as "father" at the march 2006 secret show mcr performed at sxsw for shirts for a cure (their friend and photographer beemer's charity project that supports people with breast cancer). this post by @ephedrineshot is a great primer on the show. basically, they came out unannounced and performed a short set including some new songs that turned out to be for their next record, the black parade.

here's a quote about the event in blender mag (june 2006), courtesy of ephedrineshot (full page):

the article frames it like this: gerard announces a "new, unrehearsed" song called "father" then says "we're going to regret this". i havent found any other account of this speech. in this video before starting what we know now as "the end", gerard says, "this got bad idea written all over it". though the quote in blender mag is different, the sentiment is the same. concert speech transcriptions are not fully reliable.

most of this could be found through a google search. well, livejournal is Designed to be impossible to search (at least to me). while browsing the community chemicalromance, i came across this post from july 27, 2006:

it's a direct transcript of my chem performing "the end" at sxsw -- most importantly the identical "wave your fucking arms" line. based on the post and comments, there seems to be a lost video that at some point connected "the end" to "father" -- whether it be in the gerard speech described in blender or video details like title / description.

at some point, the black parade began with the song "father". it sounded a lot like "the end". it'd be identical lyrically if not for the line "you've made your conclusion / just call me a fag" and the missing final verse.

there's another interesting change that you almost cant catch in the video because of the bad audio quality. in the ew article on the show, they say: "As the slobbering faithful chanted 'one more song' after the band’s initial exit, MCR returned to unveil a new, partially complete opus. Featuring a 'na-na-na' finale that had the crowd instantly singing along, the song suggested an even more pop-friendly future for the rambunctious quintet." basing my knowledge of the show from the setlist.fm page, i couldnt figure out how CANCER of all songs would have an audience singalong part. either setlist.fm or ew is wrong about the setlist because at 0:45 of the video, when gerard tells the crowd to wave their fucking arms, you can hear him and the audience exchange "na-na-na"'s. if i had to trust one source over the other, id go with ew.

the worst part of writing is when you have to write a character who is a genius at xyz skill and you know nothing about that skill at all

#practically the character being a hacker is IDEAL but i have NO IDEA about programming or hacking or anything like that #tempted to just be like yeah these people just don't use technology cause it's um... fallible XD #about me #also I just read Lessons in Chemistry and so many reviewers are bashing the author's lack of chemistry knowledge #which like I get it because if your mc is a chemistry genius you gotta do the intense research #and also like chem stuff is more easily availiable ig but I also sympathise that shit is hard ok!!

unless they open a new class time I'm gonna have to take chem 2 online 🥴🥴 evil but I'll do one w lectures and then chem 2 has more walk in tutoring times.

Still annoyed that the geography class I want to take is on Wednesday like I don't want to drive out there for a less than two hour class 😭 in the morning too

#SIGH. #literally they must open a third option for takinh chem 2. like surely theyre not runnjng two total classses only on tth. #chem online im picking one w timed lectures i cannot do this asynchronous stuff i thought i could but no. #to be fair i assumed we had pre recorded lectures. or anything ither than linking two youtube videos and calling it a day #its the same calc proff but she has very good reviews for in persin and absolutely horrible for online. so #im hoping. #at least then i can like. ask her stuff. etc #we will see. annoying yhat i paid the money too for this shit god

i should never be trusted to spend all of 24 hours a day by myself and be left alone to my own devices like i can already feel myself spiraling and becoming way too sentimental for my own good

#currently watching fleabag though ✌🏽 #and feeling left behind because i’m SURE these people are now reviewing their chem materials or whatnot and i’m just going to wing it #or whatever #nadinee.txt #personal

yo i was barrier at the rotterdam show and had the best time of my entire life. they played skylines & mikey was smiling, frank was singing along to every song & gerard thanked us one hundres times. im surprised theres bad reviews!!

mazel that seriously sounds incredible :’) tbh i’m not surprised, it’s a massive tour with a very public following and not everyone’s gonna like them!

#they’re probably gonna get more shit reviews lmao it’s my chem #they got kicked out of their first studio because they sounded like shit

[yisanged]

my english teacher has a lot of nerve giving us a stupid ass quiz with incomprehensible questions and then also giving us two homework assignments due the next morning saying "they're not long at all so don't freak out..... it should be easy for you to get them done" and one of them is literally four pages long and the other is a big ass chart about narrative foils to fill out plus making our own whole image on google drawings or slides or something that shows a different example of narrative foils plus a whole explanation of how they're foils. and the four page one is the purpose of syntax and diction and one of the things we have to analyze for syntax and diction is literally just “Some things are hard to remember” what syntax? what diction? it is literally a simple six word sentence with absolutely no punctuation. she even left out the period at the end of the sentence when she copy pasted it. what the hell

#i don't have time for this i have to finish math homework due tmrw and do chem review questions due tmrw for our test monday #and finish a second practice tmp for ap seminar that we're presenting first thing next week #AND WE LITERALLY HAVE A SCIOLY INVITATIONAL THIS WEEKEND i have no time to work this saturday. and i still have so much stuff i need to do #for scioly itself. tomorrow's a long friday practice i will be there till like nine pm. but the invite's at our school so we have to set up #so we won't even have much time to get work done. fuck this gay earth and my stupid baka life
