My Chemical Romance Popular Songs Ranking [2025] (1–10)
Welcome To The Black ParadeMy Chemical Romance1rank/position
Opening with a piano melody and gradually expanding into a grand, march-like rock anthem.
Released in September 2006 by America’s My Chemical Romance, this work is known as a signature track from their third album, The Black Parade.
Its highly narrative lyrics depict a journey into the realm of death, the album’s central concept, and its powerful sound blends elements of emo and pop-punk.
The theatrical progression, reminiscent of Queen, is superb, and the music video was selected by MTV as the greatest of the 21st century.
It’s a perfect piece for learners who are getting comfortable with their instruments, offering a chance to practice basic chord progressions and rhythmic patterns.
HelenaMy Chemical Romance2rank/position
My Chemical Romance, the hugely popular emo band whose reunion made headlines.
They’ve released many hit songs, and among the most beloved is “Helena,” a track about the grandmother of vocalist Gerard and bassist Mikey, who are brothers.
Their dear Grandma Helena loved music and was delighted whenever they played songs for her.
The song expresses the regret, anger, and sorrow they felt at not being there when she passed away.
It’s a track that stirs the heart with its deep emotions.
The Ghost Of YouMy Chemical Romance3rank/position
The song “The Ghost of You” by American rock band My Chemical Romance features a beautiful arpeggio from the intro that sets the mood of the track.
The way it meshes with the fiercely distorted guitar layered on top is also outstanding.
The raw, tempestuous vocal style is quintessentially them, making for a highly compelling listen.
With its dramatic dynamics and sharp contrasts in intensity, it’s an overwhelming heavy and cinematic number driven by masterful band direction.
I’m Not Okay (I Promise)My Chemical Romance4rank/position
My Chemical Romance, who pulled off an unexpected reunion and even announced a Japan show for March 2020.
This track, included on their 2004 major-label debut Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, is also one of their signature songs.
Gerard Way’s vocals feel like he’s living at full tilt, and the insanely catchy melody lingers in your ears—an absolute classic.
Amid the youthful, high-speed energy, the inclusion of a tear-jerking guitar solo and other touches showcase the band’s distinctive ensemble work, making it a highlight to listen for.
SingMy Chemical Romance5rank/position
My Chemical Romance, the hugely popular band that recently reunited and is scheduled to come to Japan, has long been supported by young people grappling with frustration.
While much of their worldview leans dark, the song introduced here, “Sing,” is a 2010 hit whose powerful lyrics feel like an anthem for boys and girls wrestling with life—an inspiring masterpiece.
Its unmistakably MCR anthemic melody and dramatic song structure can’t help but lift your spirits.
Incidentally, this track is also popular as a graduation song, and the band actually reworked it as “Sing It For Japan,” releasing a new version dedicated to those affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake.
It’s deeply moving to be reminded of MCR’s heartfelt spirit—beloved by Japan and loving Japan in return.
TeenagersMy Chemical Romance6rank/position
Known as a flagship of the screamo scene, My Chemical Romance delivers a song that’s the very embodiment of youthful outcry.
Included on the album The Black Parade and released as a single in May 2007, it blends lyrics that sharply capture teenage anxiety and rebellion with a driving, fast-paced sound.
Portraying young people struggling to adapt to the adult world with empathy, this track is perfect for those looking back on the conflicts of their youth or fighting to find where they belong.
It might also be great to listen to with friends and share how you’re feeling with each other.
I Don’t Love YouMy Chemical Romance7rank/position
It’s a rock ballad by My Chemical Romance, who don’t often do love songs.
The lyrics are about a breakup—bringing up the end of a relationship while putting on a brave face, which makes it all the more heartbreaking.
The music video is retro, quirky, and cute, so I especially recommend women enjoy the song together with the MV.
