Gerard Way is an emotional storyteller. I think he gets out of his voice exactly what he is going for. If your voice matches your goal and it isn't damaging I think it is perfect for the part.

My favorite singer from this popular "emo bands" is Patrick Stump. I'm not a huge fan of punk-pop music, more like a casual listener, but I really believe he's an amazing singer... He stands out to me because his voice is powerful, his delivery is very passionate and somehow the contrast between his personality (he's such a nice guy, gentlemanly, kind, good sense of humor but maybe a bit too nice sometimes) versus how CONFIDENT, relaxed and versatile he seems on stage... It's sort of charming to me. I think he's amazing. I enjoy how he plays with his technique, it gives his delivery a lot of personality. I wish I could listen to him singing a wider variety of music... Something like neo soul or jazz funk would be interesting (something that mixes older with more modern sounds)... That joke about him having "a soul voice" is actually the perfect way to describe why he's such a great singer. I believe Patrick is a member of some Musical Academy now?? He would be such a great teacher.

Loba Étoile I gotta disagree. Patrick’s voice is awful to me and grates on my ears in a special sort of hellish way. I was never a fan, even back when they started to hit it big around Under the Cork Tree or whatever that album was called. I’m glad you enjoy it though, and to each their own. Agree to disagree :)

Patrick Stump's voice is my absolute favorite. I can hear .01 seconds of it and know it's him. He's so unique and in control of his voice and emotes so beautifully. He sounds amazing live, as well. Even if FOB isn't your style, I think it's undeniable he's an amazing vocalist.

Oh you posted this on my birthday! Great video! Very very nostalgic music from my youth.

You guys get it. It wasn’t about singing well. It was about the emotion they could portray with their voices. That’s why I’ve always loved The Used, My Chem and TBS. Live shows were and still are about having fun, and just experiencing the music together. The album is for the voice, not a live show. If that makes sense.

A lot of these brought me way back to my childhood. Thanks for the analysis, the insight you give is good and informative. :)

Bert McCracken was my hero for singing but I can’t sing like him and if I do try it hurts especially on a lot of the vocal fry. Not to mention he does have an insane vocal range you can definitely hear it in their first Album (self titled album) He’s also had vocal surgery. Too me he’s really underrated and he’s amazing and even if his vocals aren’t perfect live he puts on an amazing show. So thank you for recognizing him. Long story short. I heard him for the first time in 6th grade on Fuse TV. The Taste of Ink Music video was brand new. And when I heard 4 o’clock in fucking morning it blew me away and I kept my attention. I’ve been a huge fan ever since.
