My Chemical Romance I Don'T Love You Guitar Cover

In this video, we have two parallel stories being told at once. Thus, we shall tackle them separately. To attempt to deconstruct both simultaneously would be a singular insult to the ingenuity and art of the My Chemical Romance video filmmaker, a Mr Marc Webb.

It has been so since fairy tales began, and here it is: Girl meets boy. Severely anaemic/albino girl meets profoundly dumb coal-mining boy, to be precise. Twas ever thus.

He stares at her like an idiot. Or possibly like someone who is utterly freaked out by her nightmarish Manga eyes, and is trying to remember how drunk he was when they met and/or how dark the pub was.

Guitar Chord: My Chemical Romance

Before, after and during the picnic, they stare at each other intently and rub each others' bits (faces, shoulders) without Graham the Miner ever leaving coal streaks on Betty the Scary Albino, which is impressive.

This is a very impressive special effect and should be applauded, for as anyone who's ever tried to create any kind of digital effect knows, breaking up is hard to do.

Pulling themselves together with the aid of sticky coal dust and, we assume, Tipp-Ex, Graham and Betty have one final fling before Graham pulls away from her for the last time beside a sad park bench. He also turns into a guitar, blows up (look, just trust me on this...) and Betty gets covered in mucky, wet Graham-run-off. Later, thinking about the whole experience, she weeps blood.

I Don't Love You *begin To Cry*

And so we move onto the second story, the real love story; that between Gerard Way, the striking lead singer of My Chemical Romance, and the rest of My Chemical Romance, who, ever the spurned best friends, long for his love and attention.

But Gerard - winner of such plaudits in the digital media as The most beautiful boy on the planet, serious. All you don't understand him like I do (MCR's premier fan portal) and OMG I LUV HIM HE IS HOTT (YouTube) - seems to have something more pressing on his mind.

What is it, Gerard? Are you quite well? Are you perturbed by the tale of Betty and Graham? Toothache? Or are your trousers just too tight?

Whatever's wrong with him, he's certainly expressing it with gusto. For the camera loves Gerard just as much as the fans do, and cuddles up to him throughout the whole video, making sure we catch every twitch on his face.

And there is a lot of twitching. Nay, gurning. Why, I haven't seen such an expressive puss since someone last put Jim Carrey's knackers in a vice (which, incidentally, whenever that was, was too long ago). Look at the boy go!

And while he demonstrates his mighty rubber visage, he sings, plaintively, about sad things, about people saying they don't love people as much as they used to very recently. Which is funny because, conversely, I never knew why people loved My Chemical Romance, but this whole physical comedy schtick is starting to win me over.

In a fit of pique, they try blowing up their instruments, which neither manages to attract his wandering eye, nor, sadly, ends the song early.

And all the while, Gerard makes love. Not to His Chemical Romance - but to the camera. And at at least one point proving, for the record, that the act of love we discovered Jessica Simpson had no natural aptitude for in her last video, he has remarkable physical verve for in this one.

At the end of the day, it is a sad video. No one wins the heart of his or her quarry. Betty and Graham ended up quite literally divided, sickly, and, in his case, exploded. My Chemical Romance and their lovely, terribly expressive and deep-throated lead singer continue with their sham marriage, living separate lives in the same house. The end.

Have you seen a good video recently that you think should be featured in this column? If so, write to me at anna.pickard@guardian.co.uk stating what it is, and why...I Don't Love You is a song by American rock band My Chemical Romance that serves as the third single from their third studio album, The Black Parade. Its music video premiered on the band's official YouTube and MySpace pages on March 7, 2007, and the single was released on April 3, 2007.

I Don't Love You was released as a single on April 3, 2007, to the United Kingdom, following the band's other singles from the album, Welcome to the Black Parade and Famous Last Words, both of which were successful hits for the band. The band opted to release Teagers as the third single in the U.S. instead of I Don't Love You. Despite this, the single was certified Gold on by the RIAA on October 21, 2021, and was certified Silver by the BPI on September 4, 2020. The band released the single in Canada, on MuchMusic on March 19.

While the band was touring, they began to record using the bus's recording unit. I Don't Love You was one of the only songs to be used on the second-to-last album from the tour bus jam sessions. Ray Toro and Gerard Way can be se playing an early version of the song from the tour bus sessions on the 2006 DVD Life on the Murder Sce.

The music video was directed by Marc Webb who also directed three previous My Chemical Romance music videos, from their Three Cheers for Sweet Revge album. Webb was chos instead of Samuel Bayer who directed Welcome to the Black Parade and Famous Last Words from their third studio album The Black Parade. The music video is about two lovers, played by Colton Haynes and Cassandra Church, in a strange abstract world, and the video seems to tell the story of how their love quickly withers away until one leaves the other alone. Towards the d of the video, one of the band's amplifiers explodes along with two of the guitars. On March 7, 2007, the band exclusively premiered the video on their YouTube and Myspace pages. The video is in a black and white format, most likely to simulate more contrast betwe the two lovers. There were also reports by one observers of Gerard wearing a wedding band (as can be se in the video), which Gerard was asked about in an interview with 97X, where he mtioned that he had 'found someone very special'. The video appeared on Kerrang! TV in the UK on March 9, 2007, and on Channel 4 in the UK on March 8, 2007. The clip also shows the band members falling but not landing, in the order of Mikey Way, Ray Toro, Bob Bryar, Frank Iero, and Gerard Way. The video was made available on March 19, 2007 for purchase on the UK iTunes Store. The video was released in New Zealand on March 13, 2007.

The song got a positive 4/5 star review from music site Pitchfork Media, who claimed: ..it's the band's first proper power ballad and, well, they should definitely think about writing dozs more.
