“Last year at the MCR show at Hammersmith Apollo in London, Flossi Gibson was attending the show along with hundreds of fellow fans when she was randomly asked to present the documentary of the band for BBC Radio 1 and interview Gerard and Mikey. Tune in this Monday, February 21st to BBC Radio 1 at 9pm to hear the resulting interview and documentary, “The Story of My Chemical Romance” presented by BBC Radio 1 Stories.”
“A bird’s eye view of Wembley Arena taken late afternoon on Saturday 12th February would show a unified swarm of black flooding the venue’s parameter. Fans of My Chemical Romance have long been hailed a passionate bunch – in 2008 the Daily Mail labelled them a suicide cult sparking an MCRmy protest outside their office gates, while last year NME writer Luke Lewis recieved a wealth of online hatred following his non-music centred (what a surprise) comments about the band. ”
“Na Na Na is the chorus of the song, so it makes perfect sense as the title. But at some point you guys must have said “Hey, let’s put another nine Na Na Na’s in parentheses.” Were you just having fun with it?
The significance I guess, if anything, is it’s actually the correct number of Na’s that are said in the chorus. So we did count it out and put that. But really that was kind of a reflection of taking this phrase Na Na Na and almost making it as dumb as possible. It’s along the lines of the Ramones, where the Ramones have these choruses where it’s just woahs or heys, these really simple phrases. That’s where the idea for Na Na Na came from. I think it was definitely just a joke of ours to put a constant stream of Na’s after in parentheses.”
