 “And I promise that I’m not okay, (Oh, wait, that’s the other guy)”.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Frank Iero<\/strong> And The Future Violents<\/strong> have just dropped a brand new album – and the lead single ‘Young & Doomed’ cause quite the stir when it was initially released.<\/p>\n

The reason for the aforementioned stir was because he dropped in a sneaky reference to the classic My Chemical Romance <\/strong>track ‘I’m Not Okay (I Promise)’. The lyric in question is “And I promise that I’m not okay, (Oh, wait, that’s the other guy)”<\/em>.<\/p>\n

It turns out that Frank discussed the lyric reference to the other members of My Chemical Romance before he comitted to putting it in – a fact that Frank shared with Rock Sound backstage at 2000 Trees Festival.<\/p>\n

Speaking of the lyric in question, Frank shared “Here\u2019s the thing- I remember the moment too – it fit so perfect, and it came out of my mouth in my basement, writing the words to this verse. And I was like \u2018oh that would be so good if it did that\u2019.”<\/em><\/p>\n

He continued “It fit so nicely – and it really tied together the different worlds. And immediately I wrote an email to the guys and was like \u2018hey listen, I\u2019ve got this song, I think I\u2019m gonna drop this reference\u2026 people are going to lose their minds about it, how do feel about it?\u2019 and everyone was like \u2018oh no that\u2019s hilarious\u2019.”<\/em><\/p>\n

He then added that it’s a bit of a nice nod to his musical past, sharing “It reminds me of when you find out that one superhero is in the same universe as another super hero.”<\/em><\/p>\n
