I can’t think of the name of it ! but i know in the begging theres likes a marching band of black people going over a bridge playing the drums, and then it goes into the song. Theres a dance for it too. any ideas???

Like Toy Soldiers? – Eminem

I’m thinking about e-mailing my music teacher…what do you think? preferably killjoys answer this question, please no haters

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!:)

I was thinking about asking my teacher that too.

I am simply looking for songs that mention marching band and kids in marching band….
I already have:
you belong with me – taylor swift
the black parade-MCR
girl next door- saving jane…

so don’t put them.. person with the most and best win 10 pts
travlin solider – dixie chicks is another one I know

"American Pie" by Don McLean. Has nothing to do with the movie.

I was thinking about e-mailing my instrumental teacher about it. what do you think?

You might as well ask. I’m not really into it anymore, but I suggest arguing your case by explaining that the concept of the song (and in fact album) is *definitely* about having the will to carry on living, as opposed to the virtual suicide pact reputation it suffered. All it would take for your teacher is a negative perception of the song’s message to make the answer a firm "no".

Have you joined the black parade?

I’m not a boy!!! how dare you!!

and yea love that song lol

i already wear glasses, wanted to wear a dress or skirt but not sure what else i can wear with it. don’t own a pair of suspenders and wont go buy any so how could i make a pair of suspenders? im in the marching band so would black marching band shoes be good enough? ALL and ANY suggestions are needed!!! (:

just wear your normal clothes, i’m sure they’ll work just fine

i did NOT answer my own question and no you get a life.. There are a load more bands that i have yet to discover and would love to hear them. Those are just who i know of. if you dont want to answer or hate the question then don;t comment. RUDE ASS PEOPLE

Ok, whoa. I think you already answered your question, haha.

* They’re not "indie" but you didn’t mention them so I’ll add it, haha. Alphabeat. Their music is just fun. They’re a Danish pop band with a 80s feel. Oh! and Matt & Kim.( I love " Good Ol Fashioned Nightmare")Oh, and if you were including me in the rude *** people, I apologize for not answering the question properly.

Did he say "Son when you grow up, would you be, the savior of the broken, the beaten and the down?"

Did he say "Will you defeat them, your demons, and all the Non-believers? The plans that they have made?"

And then "For one day, i leave you, a phantom, to lead you in the summer, to join The Black Parade?"

tbf i think he did, i bet sometimes he gets the feeling shes watching over him and other times he thinks he should go..

similiar to this but doesnt have to be exact, nor does it have to be black
