Demolition Lovers - MCR Interviews

89.5 WSOU FM Interview - 7/11/02

6:48-7:02, 20:33-20:57, 30:48-31:03

Interviewer: And then it all ends with “Demolition Lovers,” which is like the climax. Gerard: Yeah, originally, the song-- um “Demolition Lovers” was supposed to be called “I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love,” but I just hate it when, like bands name-- Interviewer: (Dramatically) The title track of-- Gerard: The title track! Yeah, I just don’t like title tracks.

Ray: (After being asked his favorite songs) And the last song “Demolition Lovers” because that song took us just about 6 months to write. We had that song very ear-- like, parts of the song very early when we first started the band, and it just took 6 months to finally get it right, and to hear it...like how it sounds on the CD, was just-- is just incredible. It’s really moving, for me, and I think for all of us because it-- it took so long to get right.

Gerard: This song is called “Demolition Lovers,” and…there you go. (Laughs) It’s about uh-- you wanna know what it’s about? Interviewer: Yes Gerard: It’s about uh…a willing to dish out and receive bullets for somebody… (laughs) because you love them that much.

HardcoreNJ Interview - March/April 2003

Paragraph 14

Interviewer: What is your favorite song on your album and why? Matt: Easily “Demolition Lovers” because, it was the one song on the record that was more of a project to us than the other songs. It took like 6 months till we got it right, so the song really felt like an accomplishment when we were finished. It shows a wide perspective of what we can write.

WVAU Radio Interview - 3/26/03

13:23-14:02

Interviewer: What is the meaning behind “Demolition Lovers”? Gerard: “Demolition Lovers” is-- the meaning behind it is-- the song’s about wanting to do something for somebody or trying to prove to somebody how much they mean to you, and I wanted it to have this very like Ro-- not so much Romeo and Juliet, but very Bonnie and Clyde type feel, like two people out on the road together, willing to take a bullet for each other, kinda very like true romance type style. And it also goes out to somebody very special, and um... Interviewer: Aww Gerard: It’s kind of a way to tie up the whole record.

89.5 WSOU FM Interview - 7/3/03

16:42-17:03

Gerard: Bullets was more like wistful. It’s more like about Romeo and Juliet type, star-crossed lovers and stuff like that. Like “Demolition Lovers” captures like the theme of the whole record, you know, two people willing to die in a gun battle for each other and stuff like that. The next record’s stepping a little away from that kind of romanticism about it, and it’s going more into the like coming back from the dead to get revenge.

MTV Interview - 6/23/04

Paragraph 7

Gerard: We had a song called 'Demolition Lovers,' from our first record [I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love]. In the end of that, the main character and his girlfriend get gunned down in the desert. So, on this album, he's in hell looking for her, and the devil tells him she's still alive. And he says, 'I have to be with her,' and the devil says, 'Then bring me the souls of 1,000 evil men. I'll send you back to earth, and when you kill the last one, you'll find her.'

MTV Interview - August-October 2006

0:37-0:49

Gerard: And we had been working on theme and concept songs since Bullets. “Demolition Lovers,” the last track off Bullets, basically leads you into Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, so there’s even like a thematic connection.

Cubicles - MCR Interviews

Alternative Press #197 - 9/17-20/04

Page 6, paragraph 1

The trio recorded a demo in Pelissier’s attic. “My attic had no walls,” he says, laughing. “It was a wooden, run-down piece of crap. I had a really cheap 16-track board, and we had a bunch of crappy mics. I basically had the drums and guitars playing upstairs and ran mics down the stairs and had Gerard sing in the bathroom.” What came out of those sessions were the blueprints for “Our Lady of Sorrows” (original title: “Bring More Knives”), “Cubicles” and “Turnstiles.” “You could hear that it was something really new, and it was kind of a weird idea, but for some reason, as poorly as it was coming together, it really worked,” remembers Gerard. “And a lot of people loved the demo.”

The MCR Forum Interview - 8/31/05

Paragraph 11

Frank: We’ve never played certain songs, I mean like never ever played them. I think “Jetset” was one of those until we were like “yeah let’s finally get this out.” We had about five songs to pick from for the headline tour, some older stuff that we haven’t played in a really long time and there’s this song called “Cubicles” that we’ve never played. I think you guys played it (to Mikey)... Mikey: Yeah, we’ve played it on a couple of shows. Frank: But I’ve never actually played it.

Matt Schichter Interview - 11/30/05

4:23-4:59

Interviewer: Let’s play something off the first record: either “Cubicles” or “Headfirst for Halos.” C’mon, you choose. Mikey: “Headfirst,” definitely. Interviewer: How come? Mikey: I just like the song better. (Laughs) Interviewer: (Laughs) Fair enough. Gerard: “Cubicles” we’ll never play again. It- Interviewer: Why is that? Gerard: It makes no sense, um, musically and lyrically, it’s probably my most embarrassing lyrics. Um, it does mean something. I was working in a lot of offices as--I was like a perpetual intern for like 4 years. Um, so, you know, I thought the sterility of the office was something I wanted to write about, but ultimately did not fit into the vibe of the band.

#mcr #my chemical romance #i brought you my bullets you brought me your love #bullets #cubicles #interviews #song interviews #i love how much they dislike cubicles #it's like the only song of theirs they seem to have regrets about (except one other but you'll have to wait to find out which) #only demo lovers left! #which will probably take a bit unless i get a sudden burst of motivation #we shall see

Sorry for the watermark, but I just had to snip this absolutely adorable moment from "Into the Light" from the 2019 Tokaigi concert. To me, it almost looked like a private little dance between them; like Marina did a little curtesy, and then Pearl a little bow, like she was inviting Marina to dance . . . but then, given the conversation that followed the song, I think it was actually a little pantomime of how Marina tried to introduce herself to Pearl when they first met (when she didn't speak Inkling yet), and Pearl invited Marina to come with her so she could show Marina Inkling culture (despite not speaking Octarian herself)!

Well, regardless of what that adorable little bit was, things certainly did get kinda intimate for a moment there 🩵🩷

#splatoon #off the hook #pearlina #pearl houzuki #marina ida #video #also the fact that ''Into the Light'' makes Pearl remember how they first met is so interesting #considering that canonically Pearl writes the lyrics for all of their songs #while Marina composes the music / mixes the songs together #the Japanese name of the song is ''Friend from Faraway'' as well so honestly #Pearl wrote that song *about Marina* #it's the Pearlina song written by Pearl herself :') #(the factoid about Pearl writing all their songs comes from the Marina interview in Splatune vol. 2 where Marina says #that she leaves all the lyrics to Pearl and just does the music / composition parts after Pearl gives her the lyrics for them to record)

“I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”

“He is half of my soul, as the poets say.”

“I am made of memories.”

PLEASE IS THIS TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR 😭
