I'm preparing early because Gerard announced that The Black Parade will have two more singles and the videos will be directed by himself. Place your bets now!
Me, I'm rooting for "The End/Dead!" and "Sleep", although I think "Mama" has a good chance and I'm sure one of them will be "Cancer" just to spite me. Not that I don't like "Cancer", I love "Cancer", but it's just too short to be a single and it works best as an album track. "Dead!" and "Sleep" are too epic not to release though. If they don't release at least one of them, they're stupid.

My bets are on the same in "Dead!" and "Sleep." Really I'm just happy with any of the choices left on the album since there's no song I don't like. Although I agree that "Cancer" ... eh I just don't see it at all being right for radio, but it's a great song nevertheless.

I hate "Cancer". Please go with "Disenchanted" MCR!

"I Don't Love You" has already been a single only in the UK and Canada.

So yeah, as Idiot said, Mama.
I'm not surprised, but disappointed because it means only one of my two favorites can now be a single. If the last single isn't "Dead!" or Sleep", they are stupid.

I don't have high expectations for any chart success.

I wonder if Liza Minelli will be in the video. She's pretty scary and recent MCR videos have had creepy imagery so it'll work.

...yeah, I could see Liza in some freakish clown make-up or something over the top, making fun of herself. Mama would make a great video. They could make it like one of those silent movies, in black and white with scratchy film. I still think Disenchanted is the best song on the album so I hope it becomes a single, but I will take Sleep.

It does seem that she goes a little overboard with her makeup to begin with, so maybe all she'll have to do is ham up her emotions. |

Hi. One of my favorites! It's their most "alternative" single they've ever had, so I hope the modern stations give it some spins. "Teenagers" didn't perform so well, so I hope they bounce back! "I Don't Love You" would be a bad future choice because it sounds like a clone of any Green Day ballad. No thanks!

A caberet-style video would be a huge riff on P!ATD. Liza just exemplifies this.
Dead! probably will be the last single somewhere because of how much exposure it has. (Guitar Hero, that one TV appearance, some other places)

I'm ashamed of my love for this song.
