'Safe'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Gerard Way's live-tweeting as he listens to albums is cracking me up a little.
Oh, it's cracking me up a LOT.
I hope that WB realizes that they could make a lot of money by releasing a video collection AND a DVD of one of the World Contamination tour shows. (Which reminds me, I need to email the person who has the amazing video of "Vampires" from the Wembley show to see if they're still selling DVDs.)

Rupert Grint IS Cheetah Chrome!
From Gerard's twitter recaps of listening to all the MCR albums: "Vampires is still my favorite song of all time. Ever." and "Bullets in closing- the most DIY,rawest album out at the time in the scene.We were The Damned to the scene's Sex Pistols".
It's like he's writing these things JUST FOR ME.

Oh, for fuck's sake, songs from the 30s*,why do you have to be so damn racist in your original forms? Now I have to figure out which non-original recording to use.
* Especially "Let's Do It" and "Puttin' on the Ritz"
* Especially "Let's Do It"
Though it does use the original lyrics.
and "Puttin' on the Ritz"
Or, Taco's anomalous hit version from '83.
Not useful for my purposes. This is a compilation for people in an Alzheimer's facility, so I need the versions that will be most resonant with the older generation. I've been trying to go with original recordings or those who made it famous (before 1952 or so)
Though it does use the original lyrics.
Don't think so. It's got birds and bees (which is the replacement lyric). They also take a smattering of lines from various verses.
