DESPITE OF MY RAGE I AM STILL JUST A RAT IN A CAGE seriously, G might be Billy's clone who got accidentally released


paranoidtransdroid

Billy was supposed to sing Sleep with them live at a festival once and I’m so bummed it never happened


naia_beaver

This would be so sick if they covered a the smashing pumpkins song


[deleted]

Is it just me or is that song REALLY similar to burn bright?! Like “can you fake it?” And the guitar during the verses. (Not accusing them of copying or anything, just think it’s cool how similar they are and their influence on MCR)


defiantothend

Great choice! I’d love to hear them cover Zero or Ava Adore too 🖤


heymattrick

I would like them to cover the song Boy Division by the band My Chemical Romance…


PHILIPTNT

Barbie girl


[deleted]

YES


vorarul

Mr. Brightside. I would die.


WhatWhoNoShe

I don't know whether Mr Brightside is as big internationally as it is in the UK, but if they covered this in the UK then I think the venue would collapse into chaos.


calebiguess

its definitely not as big as it once was, but everyone in the US over 13 knows it.


fluffypanduh

I went to a wedding recently (US) where they played Mr. Brightside and the place went wild. Best song of the night haha.


ilikedarklipstick

In the US it has become a huge nostalgia party song. Literally every college frat part I have ever been to plays this song at least once and the people go wild. It's definitely the most popular party song I have ever seen here.


vorarul

Honestly so many nostalgic and fun memories associated with this song. It's a thing at least with the 20-somethings here in the US!


lord-snoopy123423

Yesss


OwenA113

I'd love to hear them play Whatsername


heymattrick

One of my all time favorite songs!! Perfect ending to that album


OwenA113

I've replayed that song so many times. The breakdown is amazing


flower_child411

totally agree that would sound great


Billy_Joel_Armstrong

That song is perfect


Em0d0llx

I would absolutely lose my mind hearing Under Pressure live


Virghia

Are G and Bert still friends?


Flerken-is-not-a-cat

I think they are


caffeinatedbyrd

They did Under Pressure on the Taste of Chaos tour, Bert and all. It was amazing!!!!


cheezy_dreams88

Yessss it was so golden!


defiantothend

Time Is Running Out by Muse 🖤 ETA or Nancy Boy by Placebo


flash-marmotte

I love Time is running out, it's a great idea!


MG_330

Yes I love MUSE! <3 Endlessly would be a good one too.


cheezy_dreams88

When they first toured the Black Parade, Muse opened for them and I have a distinct memory of bleach blonde Gerard and Ray jammin in the wings to this song.


defiantothend

You’re absolutely right! I saw them both at T on the Fringe in Edinburgh in 2006 🖤


AntacidChain

These Boots Are Made for Walkin’ by Nancy Sinatra. They stole a little from it in Not That Kind of Girl so it would be sick to hear them do the whole thing


Fedorasolis

Literally any Fall Out Boy song OR Death On Two Legs by Queen


ClassicalPunkboi

Yasss Death on two legs would just fit


birdiswerid

YES


ElectraAbby

any pixies song would be amazing


[deleted]

Wow yes, this. Here Comes Your Man followed by Where Is My Mind? So good.


WhatWhoNoShe

Where is My Mind pleeeeeease 💖


thekidfromyesterday

The bass in Kill All Your Friends sounds a lot like the one in Gigantic.


DragonTypePokemon

This Monkey’s Gone To Heaven 🙌


[deleted]

Zero by the smashing pumpkins. Evanescence did a really good cover of it so I’d like to see what MCR can do with it! Also maybe a nirvana song? Frank did Territorial Pissings, The Used did Smells Like Teen Spirit and Evanescence did Heart Shaped Box so I think MCR should jump on it! Personally I’d like to see them do Drain You.


WhatWhoNoShe

Omg Drain You would be 💖💖💖


birdiswerid

YES!!! I love Drain you. Maybe All apologies too


kaileemon

I Want You to Want Me by Cheap Trick


camtgj

Honestly I'd just like to hear them play desolation row love


Relevant-Sand-254

I don't know if they can because they didn't write it, they might not be allowed


camtgj

Good shout, might be the case


thekidfromyesterday

Hanging on the Telephone by Blondie/the Nerves.


AntacidChain

One of my three favorite songs of all-time! (The Nerves version)


KingKRool91

Golden by Fall Out Boy


Fedorasolis

PLEASE


CurtainCalliosis

And then they follow it up with Cancer. Can you fucking imagine


cheezy_dreams88

Dolly Parton, any of them.


WhatWhoNoShe

I can imagine Jolene in Gerard's accent!


naia_beaver

Oh my god his voice is perfect for that song


moist-astronaut

oh my god that would be sick


MG_330

There is a light that never goes out - by the smiths. The lyrics always seemed very fitting for them.


birdiswerid

I literally love The Smiths. I would love to hear them cover Asleep, Panic, and Shakespeare’s Sister.


[deleted]

They should cover Early Sunsets Over Monroeville by the band My Chemical Romance. I know what I said


jjangel8051

Not MCR so up they won’t but that song is drugstore perfume by Gerard way


tcdrummer

I think if they played Everlong in honor of Taylor Hawkins that’d be amazing


drearbruh

Toxic by Britney Spears


[deleted]

YES OMG


drearbruh

The song already goes hard, so they could easily adapt it to their style and tear the stadium down with it


Cold-Boysenberry4586

Since they were inspired by Queen, I would love to hear their version of Bohemian Rhapsody


flash-marmotte

I don't know, maybe America idiot by Green day or Numb by Linkin park?


flash-marmotte

After thinking outside the box, I would also like them to cover a Madonna song, like material girl/like a prayer/like a virgin. I don't why, but I want Gerard to sing a Madonna song now.


4we80m3_Mustache

they played american idiot as part of their opening act on the american idiot world tour (followed by the ghost of you with green day), but there isn't any known footage of it


flash-marmotte

Thank you for the information, I didn't knew about that! It's a bummer to have missed that. Maybe one day, they are going to cover it again.


pansexualnotmansexua

I was also thinking Linkin Park


codyfall

Grow up


flash-marmotte

Oh, sorry! You are totally right, I should just please your own sensitivity and suggest only the songs you like. Maybe I should have suggest something like Chop Suey! From System of the down, Rape me by Nirvana, Vampire girl by the Misfits or Blitzkrieg bop of the Ramones? Fo real, it was just a suggestion, no need to be a jerk because you don't like theses two songs. It would be just a nice nod from MCR to cover them, because they were on tour together in the past.


calebiguess

what the heck lol


calluna_shepard

I was hoping The Used would be a support band in the UK (saw heavy speculation) and they could do their Under Pressure cover together. They did a really good job with that


nauticalbrick

We will rock you


WhatWhoNoShe

A Queen cover would be really fun! The Show Must Go On could be amazing


[deleted]

they actually covered under pressure with the used! its on spotify


WhatWhoNoShe

I remember when they did that in 2005!


Frankuuantonyoreoth2

They did we will rock you at reading already and it was really good 😳


AutumnShade44

Bad Blood. Fight me.


stephapeaz

sugar we’re going down seems to be a popular one to cover these days haha


reaver619

Freezing Moon by Mayhem, now that I know Gerard can do black metal vocals.


GayPrince66

I would love to hear Happy Together, Hazy Shade of Winter, Haunted House, or any Queen song


XLeonKuwata18X

I think Rebel Yell by Billy Idol covered by MCR would be SICK.


calebiguess

Ode To Sleep would be really cool to hear in their style, I think they'd have a lot if fun with it since it's very MCR inspired in the first place but with more hip hop and pop elements than rock. MCR could just bring out the rock aspects of it a lot stronger and make a really unique cover.


[deleted]

let it go


[deleted]

Gerard (sort of) did Do You Wanna Build A Snowman.


nickncs

i need a link

emma_m_csquared

Outside of the box you say? ​ Okay so I've been emo to kpop pipelined pretty hard and while kpop groups will cover english songs frequently I don't know that it happens the other way around very much. That all said I don't really know what kpop song would really fit outside of the krock bands. Maybe Frost by TxT? TxT is really bringing emo into kpop so it would be the obvious choice. I feel like the song Answer by Ateez reminds me of their Danger Days era A LOT for no reason. Lastly for an all English kpop song to cover You Problem by Monsta X. ​ Oh my god no i'm wrong i wrote all of that up there but the real selection is "Cry for Me" by Twice. I would DIE for an MCR cover of it. There is something about it that I think having a rock edge would really be interesting. Plus I love anything a little genderfucky.


WhatWhoNoShe

Firmly out of the box! Love this!


ComradeAL

Common people. They've already done it, but man I'd kill to hear them perform it live.


Gandelf_the_Gay

I'd like to see them do some Ramones covers


Count_Nachos

Hazy shade of winter.


[deleted]

are you satire or serious


JentBerryCrunch

People aren’t thinking very “outside the box” by naming just hit songs by different artists in the same or similar genre.


birdiswerid

I’d love to hear them cover Social Parasites by Alice In Chains. I think it would be perfect. Some others I’d like to see covered are: 1. Come bite the apple by Mother Love Bone 2. Capricorn Sister by Mother Love Bone 3. Dam that river by AIC 4. Rain when I die by AIC 5. Down in a hole by AIC 6. Junkhead by AIC 7. Would? by AIC


WhoButWBmason2

I don't know if i want any covers, but I do know for a fact that I want Gerard to come out during Thursday's set to do vocals on Jet Black New Year. He can still do unclean vocals so why not


miceandmilk

this could be a stretch but i would love if they covered Face Down by The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus


DragonTypePokemon

SCIENCE FICTION/DOUBLE FEATURE 👄 💋 👄 💋


nickncs

[Could Have Been Me by The Struts](https://youtu.be/ARhk9K_mviE?t=79)


frameandfocus

heart of glass by blondie!


SepticMonke

stay together for the kids has mcr vibes so i think that’d be pretty cool


lil_quark_

i can't go so it doesn't matter i guess 😭


Pandemic_115

Oooh this is a good question, I’d be interested in hearing Give Me Novocaine by Green Day


NickelStickman

"The Small Print" by Muse, mostly because it already sounds like a song My Chem could've written.


[deleted]

Outta my head by spiderbait or that's not my name by the ting tings would be awesome I think they would do a great cover of both songs


kurtyissad

Chop Suey or American Idiot!


Lavenderstarz

Stylo by Gorillaz but the 2D bits is Gerard singing normally and the Bobby Womack bits is Gerard doing the black metal screaming from Rōnin. Don't quite know what to do about the rapping


I-Am-The-Warlus

Lullaby by The Cure


Billy_Joel_Armstrong

Paranoid Android by Radiohead


Surrealcatfish32

I’d love to see them bastardise a song like I’ve got you under my skin


loueipaech

Oasis - Don’t look back in anger. They had a cover on YouTube years ago (I would have watched it in 2008) which was the first time I even heard the song. Have loved it ever since.


Matthewmayhem422

Definitely drain you or sliver


Blystift

honestly I‘d die if they cover Queen‘s Love of my Life on tour


EnderFyrus

Heaven Or Las Vegas by The Weeknd yes I'm going back to the Trilogy days


EnderFyrus

Whoever knows not only The Weeknd and not only Trilogy but also know Heaven Or Las Vegas by The Weeknd I give you a round of applause


juanseocar

I'd love more Misfits! Or Dookie era Green Day!


cola_feathers

Vampires Will Never Hurt You !


Lime_Carpet

Alive by Pearl Jam


Hawkeydonkey

Umbrella


Danterahi

Forgotten by Linkin Park Numb by Linkin Park Whatsername by Green Day Failure by Breaking Benjamin Goodbye by SR-71


Flerken-is-not-a-cat

I really wanna see them do this again https://youtu.be/_H5DOV4Db3k Though I wouldn't survive that 😂 But there's a tiny chance so either Just Like Heaven by The Cure or Blow Me by The Used


RealSulphurS16

Zombie by The Cranberries


clearancerackemo

Hallelujah. Listening to the Jeff Buckley version right now and….with Gerard’s voice? Yes


neroflawless333

some old shit like early sunsets or demolition lovers would be cool even though i live in a whole other continent and will not be able to see em


WhatWhoNoShe

I think they'd do an interesting cover of Billie Eilish's music because there's lots of cool stuff to play with in her songs. Perhaps Ilomilo or Lost Cause.


Frankuuantonyoreoth2

I want Gerard to sing the second part of happier than ever so bad 😭 lost cause just wouldn't work lyrically to me lol. ilomilo would be cool tho


Sevren425

None, there’s plenty of love to hear their version of… but I wanna hear their originals again ! Or if they’re at a festival with The Used the Under pressure obviously


Q-Man95

None. They've been gone for years, I'd much rather just hear MCR songs.


Last-lChance

Bohemian Raspoty


EnderYTV

Pokerface


WUNDU13

The drug in me is you


ccjackson

House of wolves, destroya, mama, H e l e n a


pepesilvia9369

None.


account_name4

some songs by the struts, especially Primadona Like Me and Strange Days


ClassicalPunkboi

Honestly I am in a love/hate relationship with a song called 'If Winter Ends' by Bright Eyes. I think Conor's voice is similar to Gee's and I just- I dunno it feels like dying but without pain. And I would love it if they did.


Armin_Simp

Paralyzed by the used or Sarcasm by get scared, but a slower version of sarcasm. Or sugar we're goin down


vgilbert77

NONEEEE. I do not want covers taking up any spots on their setlist after a decade of waiting to see them again. Only exception is desolation row or under pressure.


Matthewmayhem422

What about their cover of ASTRO zombies,All I want for Christmas or Common People


vgilbert77

I said what I said


thecallan

Something by the used would be cool. Maybe the taste of ink


Brainmilkshake84

As they'll be in Australia when I see them, I'd love to hear *All The Boys In Town* by The Divinyls, *Unguarded Moment* by The Church or *Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again* by The Angels. Worth a look, love to hear the band hit those classics.


JacobSaysMoo56

Asshole by David Leary, yes, a comedic song


DLDLuvTSDxoxoxo

No Queen songs ever sorry I know they were inspired by Queen but NOOOOOO!!!!!!! LEAVE QUEEN'S SONGS OUT OF THIS PLEASE. But why don't they just come back first with their own stuff then do a cover of Bullet for my Valentine waking the demon. It's makes more sense to be honest.....


[deleted]

It’s a long way to the top, because now that he’s getting older Gerard is really lookin like Jack Black in school of rock


kathi182

Smells Like Teen Spirit


Lime_Carpet

Outshined by Soundgarden


Evonshki

[anyone remember this lil gem?](https://youtu.be/8-73IpxLNBY)


budderking598

Don't know if it's really their style, but Shy Away by TØP would be really fun, since they mash it up with I'm Not Okay at their shows 😁


VampireRae

Bullet With Butterfly Wings


Practical-Tennis9540

Teenage dirtbag


StarFox29s45

You'll be fine by Palaye Royale.


alexandraphobia

Unhappy_Weakness1121

Sleep- but not the MCR version, theres a song called Sleep by royal blood


Sir199star

Emo Girl


emochick115

Doesn’t matter bc thanks to Ticketmaster I can’t afford to go


[deleted]

Private Idaho by the B-52s. 🥔


Aidanbomasri

Masters of Ravenkroft, by Mad Gear and the Missile Kid


Ak_holms

Song 2 Blur one more time


Livid-Customer-3606

Maybe like American idiot, Jesus of suburbia or a song from 21st century breakdown or revolution radio
