thE FLIP PHONES

I NEVER REALIZED HIS VOICE WAS THIS BEAUTIFUL

who's here in 2024

I had cancer myself. Today, 6 years ago, I got my first chemo. I met a girl named Marena, she was singing this song next to me. We became close friends... untill she died, fifth of may, 2014. Her last words: "the hardest part of this... is leaving you." She was a true MCR fan. I miss my bestie everyday.

After listening to top cover I gotta say it feels good coming back and listening to the original.

He's soggy from the chemo and I'm soggy from all this emo

Gerard: "The hardest part of this is leaving you." Also Gerard: *leaves*

I don’t think the guy on piano gets enough recognition

*Sees Gerard walk into the light, starts to cry*

omg that exit was so sassy

how the hell can people say that gerard is a bad singing live? this is proof he is not!

MCR IS BACK no one: me: PUT MY EYELINER ON

Me: I still cant believe MCR broke up "Grandma that was 64 years ago, let it go" Me: Hush child

am i the only one who just feels like he's the king of the world in this performance?

if you're here, then you've a great sense in music

Me in school: *sings this song* My friend: *joins along* Me: *thinks I’ve found a mcr friend* omg you know this song! Her: yeah, by twenty one pilots! Me: *cries in emo*

Once you listen to mcr there's no going back

"Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you" yeah it probably was hard breaking up

2:05 i didn't believed in god until i needed to thank someone for these vocals

I never thought of Cancer as a sad song but I'm crying now. His voice just has so much emotion

I don't know how Gerard can be a sassy queen even in the saddest song.

I'm not crying, I just have an idea in my eye

I can see two people on stage. Freddie Mercury and Gerard Way

"Cause the hardest part of this is leaving you"

1:42 omg the ancient flip phones

HOW DOES THIS SOUND BETTER THAN THE ONE ON THE ALBUM?!

Friendly reminder: he had a bad cold during this concert. He can sing like THAT with a cold.

"Cause the hardest part of this, is leaving you~" You fucking left us, Gerard. WHY?

....just got a little bit if March 22 in my eye ..nothing big

Crying because we'll see Tyler Joseph covering this beautiful song, also crying because we'll never see new live performances of mcr playing this song again kms

Only real MCR fans knows exactly what song was coming up next haha.

When I saw them in concert they closed with this song. It wasn't a full set since Linkin Park was the headliner right after. Doesn't get much more 2007 alternative than that.

Fuck. Everything about this is beyond perfection. The way Gerard seems so in the moment, the way everyone seems so in the moment. How Gerard's voice flows so beautifully throughout the lyrics. How, finally, there aren't any insanely loud instruments to cover up his voice. Only the piano to compliment his ever so slightly raspy voice, that still somehow sounds so velvety and soft, probably due to a mixture of coffee and cigarettes. And I won't even think of forgetting how, at the end, he pauses for the longest time, and let's the crowd's cheering sink in to himself, and everyone else. Then he finishes it off so wonderfully. I know I may have went overboard with the description of this entire performance, but oh my god. This is so unbelievably overwhelming to watch. I get choked up just trying to savor this. I can only imagine what their concerts are like.

hoW DOES HE MANAGE TO BE SO SASSY WHILE SINGING A SAD SONG IM COMMITING

1:19 "Manos" ✋

welcome back mcr,,,,, I CANT BELIEVE THIS IS REAL

The people with their flip phones...I feel old.

MCR was my favorite band when I was younger and top is now my current favorite, so to see them cover cancer and know that they also idolized MCR is such a beautiful mind fuck.

My little brother died of cancer when I was 17, even though it’s been a few years since then his death still hits heard for me and so does this song, it’s so beautiful and touching, amazing song

I love how he said "manos" is so lovely Ily MCR

NO cover is as good as MCR singing Cancer or any of their other songs. G has the emotion that the song requires.

Gerard sounds like an actual God while singing. how so perfect

Mom, this song has been on repeat since you’ve left 4 years ago after a 9 year battle. Miss you so much! Also, what a performance of Gerard, I keep coming back to this one!

cant listen to this without crying. i miss my mum so much

I'm not crying... YOU'RE CRYING! *jumps out window*

This... This is what I signed up for. This song does my grandfather (that was taken away from me by cancer) justice. The TØP one was okay, but you can't beat this.

Turn away If you could get me a drink Of water 'cause my lips are chapped and faded Call my aunt Marie Help her gather all my things And bury me In all my favorite colors My sisters and my brothers, still I will not kiss you 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you Now turn away 'Cause I'm awful just to see 'Cause all my hair's abandoned all my body All my agony Know that I will never marry Baby I'm just soggy from the chemo But counting down the days to go It just ain't living And I just hope you know That if you say (if you say) Good-bye today (good-bye today) I'd ask you to be true (I'd ask you to be true) 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you 'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you

"manos" xd morí, lo amo❤️

I can never hear this without crying. The song is beautiful. Two years ago in May my Grandma died. She was really sick and was even in a nursing home for a while. For Christmas actually. She always said she was hurting but my family brushed it off as her being dramatic. She was home for a while but she wasn't the same, she was seeing things and talking to air. one morning my mom found her coughing up blood so they called an ambulance. As they pulled up to the hospital my grandma started tearing up and begged my mom to take her home. But we didn't know what was going on so they took her in. She was diagnosed with Colon cancer. It was so far gone, it had travelled throughout her body; including her brain. It was too late to do anything to help her. No chemo, nothing. My uncle drove my other uncle and I to the hospital where they told us. I was really protective over my nana because our family treated her so badly. She was always a bit messed up; she was from England and witnessed WW2 as a kid. When the doctors told my grandma she was going to die, she was so peaceful. she didn't cry. a week later she was in the ICU completely unconscious. I sat there, listening to this on repeat, trying to comprehend what was happening. My aunt and mom made us all leave that night and I knew I would never see my grandma again. But unlike everyone else, I couldn't say bye. I couldn't say I love you. because if I were to talk, I would have broken down. I miss her. since then I've lost my uncle and my grandpa, but my grandma still hits me the hardest. I'm​ not looking for pity, I just want to show how this song is super important. It helped me through one of the hardest times of my life. Their music still keeps me alive, helps me cope. I miss them. But thank you for writing this song, it means a lot to me.

I'M CRYING SO MUCH DEAR LORD

*starts reapplying eyeliner from crying*

I GET CHILLS TEAR UP EVERY TIME I MISS HIM SO MUCH I UNDERSTAND THAT HES HAPPY NOW AND I WANT THE BEST FOR HIM BUT CANT I JUST BE SAD 😭 Pls someone talk to me I'm sad

I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE THE ONE THAT'S CRYING

Damn, Gerard sure knows how to work a crowd

Losing my dad to cancer in the early 2000's makes this song hit so much harder. My eyes well every time. It's powerful. Beautiful. I will forever be grateful this song exists.

SO ANGELIC SO PURE SO SAD THIS IS BEAUTIFUL WE DON'T DESERVE THEM

if gerard dies we all die too

FLIP PHONES!! FLIP PHONES EVERYWHERE!!!

My father died of cancer in 03 and this song is impossible to listen to without crying. Still here in 2023 listening to the most beautiful song. Love to all who lived and lost, and love to all who lost their lives to this wretched desease. ❤

It's been years and I still can't stop coming back to this video

Gerard: I WILL NOT KISS YOU! Me: 😭 *sobs in emo*

i'm not crying wtf I just have something in my eye

crying so much now

Yo estuve en ese concierto y era tan feliz jamás me imagine q más de 10 años después me estaría despidiendo de mi madre por esta maldita enfermedad. Adiós Mamá.

the live version is so much better than the studio version

I love that MCR doesn't use/need autotune

*cries in spanish*

That Gerald with a spotlight on his back is so good . One of the best underrated song written (cancer and disenchanted)

I'm not crying I just have a brick in my eye... Yeah that's it...

fuck. this song gets me everytime. Miss u grandma.

My grandma died about 5-6 years ago from cancer... this song hits really hard and I can’t listen to it without crying. Now that they’re back. Wow. 2019. Congrats :)

Im crying. This is such a beautiful song and beautiful voice. A song from my childhood

IM NOT CRYING I SWEAR

I legit almost started crying bc they have talent and then there's me

I don't know why people think the TOP version is more emotional, this performance is so full of emotion. And it's not that I hate theirs, but the remix and autotune kills the mood for me.

2:44 Geesus is here.

*listening to the version on the album*-light crying *listening to the live version* full on sobbing

He was better live than recorded

The way Gerard puts so much emotion into the performance is breathtaking! It makes me feel like I’m watching someone who has cancer themself perform a song to a crowd 😢

His voice is so touching when he sings this

1:41 can we take a moment to talk about how long ago this was I mean wow. LOOK AT ALL TJOSE FLIP PHONES

i miss them 😭😭😭

My grandmother passed away recently and one of the things that I think wanted to tell me was "'Cause the hardest part of this Is leaving you"... I still haven't gotten over her loss

I was diagnosed with bowel cancer in December. I spent 7 days in hospital over christmas having major bowel surgery. I’m 41 😢. Tomorrow I go and talk about chemo. Today I listened to this and the tears would not stop flowing. Live your life, people. It’s finite and we never know when that bullet will find us ❤

I would do anything to go back in time and be at this show

I'm crying because of two things: 1. This song only reminds of my dear mother (R.I.P) 2. And the fact that I will never see this band live. That's it, I'm done.

Such a beautiful closing for CANCER song... Gerard really love his fans...

"cause the hardest part of this is leaving you"

I know tøp is everywhere now but like this is so beautiful never forget mcr

dammit I miss this band. Saw them live once, best night of my life. Seen GERARD, but it's not quite the same. God, I'd kill for them to just do one more tour together, the greatest hits tour or something.

While i was going to the comment section i was actually hoping to find somebody how feels the same as me, now im actually sad that i couldn't find someone. Or maby i have to scroll futher. But i have to cry very much because of this song and not only because it's beautiful. But alsobecause my grandma has died 4 month's ago because of cancer. She had tumors in her brain and died because of it. I loved her verry much, but sometimes im afried that i wasn't nice inaugh or didnt call her much. That are mistakes i regret. But i now that she loved me dispite of that, and i loved her so much to, i still do. She was lucky to have led al long life of 90 years with all the up and downs that come with it. And i know that she wass still full of life and easily could have lived 90 more. She was a amazing stong women. Forever in my heart. This song had make this feeling verry loud. Mrc thank you for that

He is a beautiful,and i love you Gerard💖 He is a favorite voice💕

I'm not crying... /cries ocean of tears/

Wish I could see them in concert... :(

I'm a grown ass man and I still come back to this shit, and it still brings me to tears.

I'M HERE TO TELL YOU THAT THEY ANNOUNCED THEIR COMEBACK YESTERDAY

*tries so hard not to cry*Gerard: *keeps singing**still doesn't cry*Gerard: MANOS!*cries in Spanish*

it's funny how everyone listens to him

my man. forever loving mcr

this is the most beautiful and touching thing i've ever seen.
