Let's throw it back to 2006. A decade ago, My Chemical Romance released their third studio album, Welcome To The Black Parade, which featured their hit single of the same name. You know the one...
"Welcome To The Black Parade" hit No. 1 on the US Alternative Songs Chart, No. 8 on the US Mainstream Top 40 Chart, and No. 9 on the US Billboard Hot 100 Chart. And now the song is celebrating its 10th birthday!
THAT'S DOUBLE DIGITS. 👵🏼
To celebrate, MCR's lead singer Gerard Way has joined forces with producer/DJ/King of the Neon Future Steve Aoki to remix his band's 2006 jam.
Both Steve and Gerard recently talked to BuzzFeed about the special 10th anniversary remix. Gerard says of the now ten-year-old tune, "It represents a very intense time, which is funny, because it’s a really intense time right now. We really tried to make this record kind of a universal theme about death, and that seems to always be relevant. To me, it means the purest kind of creative artistic expression that we could possibly have created."
Steve added, "This is absolutely one of the most important songs of our generation. I’m just happy that the 10-year anniversary came out and I was lucky — honored — to be able to work on it."
