Watchmen(OST 2009) - Desolation Row

[Fawksau]

I prefer MCR's version of Desolation Row since Dylan's is over 11 minutes long, but both are fantastic

[Tonyfaster]

Film and soundtrack was pretty decent until they threw this shit in there, wtf?

[nhaberma]

Hello I'm my chemical romance and I'm going to cock block you by singing only 3 random verses out of one of the greatest songs written and then stop... :/

[strife93]

@nhaberma How exactly does this affect one's penis? 0_o

[devotedatheist]

my god this is bad, dylan would be ashamed

[GravityGrenade]

@devotedatheist You can't please everyone. If you like Bob Dylan's better, then listen to that and stay the hell out of MCR's business.

[theFATelvis85]

id like to here the bluesbrothers do a version of this

[MrFunnyWierd]

Today, a comediant died in New York.

Best quote ever

[allwalledup]

wow the doomsday clock has already struck 1....guess were fucked now xD

[Daedalus969]

@allwalledup .. I really wonder where you're getting your information, or if that's a reference to the movie.

[allwalledup]

@Daedalus969 lol i was making fun of the inverted smiley. its normally supposed to be facing the other way and the blood splirt (symbolizing the hand of a clock) would be at 11 but since the smiley is inverted its pointing towards one oclock....yeah i know im lame xD

[Daedalus969]

@allwalledup Heh, I see it now. Alright then. xD

[cerystalkstoyouall]

This is a bob dylan song, you know?

[ishtarg8]

Sometimes a band does a cover that totally nails a song, maybe even more surely than it's composer could. This, I would submit, is one of those times.

[storstarkskogsturk]

@ishtarg8 I beg to differ.

[JorgeLuis5031993]

the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[crazychicken098]

I'm not alone in thinking that this song at the end of Watchmen was just so perfect? Rounded it off fantastically!

[scholte]

I can imagine rorschach and lisbth salander in a cross over

I WOULD SOOOO LOVE THAT;3

[Liberator130]

@scholte Absolutely! A right-wing nutjob, and an asocial sexual creature together? Sound like the makings of a great sit-com :D

[andymick1011]

tonight a comedian died in New york 

[vaultboy4561]

HI

[Zombies239]

I don't like MCR, buy I love this song and this movie.

[Charliedaunicorn1557]

You people are a bunch of dumbasses. This is post punk. Not emo . I bet not any of you ignorant fucks have ever listened to REAL emo bands . So you have no room to judge. Wearing black makeup does not make a band emo. Whether it's shitty or not is your opinion. I don't see how it is i mean they preferred to put THIS COVER on watchmen not Bob Dylan's.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOMETHING DOMT CLICK ON IT YOU FUKING TROLLS.~

[BirthOfSerpents]

@Charliedaunicorn1557 Post punk HAHAHA do you know anything about music. Post punk has been used to describe such classic bands such as 45 grave, alien sex fiend, alien sex fiend, bauhaus, christian death, the church, cocteau twins, the cult, death cult, fad gadget, joy division, the lords of the new church etc etc etc all the bands above also fit into the gothic subgenre

[Charliedaunicorn1557]

@BirthOfSerpents

HAHAHAHAHA. NO I DON'T I NEVER SAID I DID. I'M A LITTLE FAGGOT IDIOT WHO GETS THEIR INFORMATION OFF WIKEPEDIA.

COOL STORY BRO. IDC.

[BirthOfSerpents]

@Charliedaunicorn1557 Wikipedia doesn't always have accurate information on music. Anyone who does get all their information from wikipedia needs to find new sources. Ive been listening to Post punk and goth music for awhile and MCR is most certainly not post punk. My point being is you shouldn't post a comment about musical content when you dont know what post punk is. Dont group a faggy band like MCR into post punk its insulting to put them on the same level.

[Charliedaunicorn1557]

@BirthOfSerpents



lo. Gtfo troll. Your negativity & hatred isn't appreaciated here along with your weak insults about MCR " fagotty" . I don't care if you think the band is gay or band members are homosexual .

Good day troll ~

[kewlman981]

Its okay for people to call MCR a shitty emo band because if they didn't other people wouldn't know about them. And MCR's music was made to stop teenage suicide and self-harm. So their music isn't for some people.

[moparmonster1965]

My Homosexual Romance stole part of this song from the Sex Pistols (00:51).

[RevolutionaryLoser]

@moparmonster1965 You do know this is a cover of Bob Dylan , right?

[moparmonster1965]

@moparmonster1965 I grew up on Bob Dylan, thank you kindly. My parents were hippies and revolutionaries, but that sequence of notes sounds like one of them, I don't remember which song. Coincidence or MHR artistic license, I can't say.

[FranSunsets]

@moparmonster1965 fuck. off.

[moparmonster1965]

@FranSunsets That's not very polite. Do you blow your father with that mouth or just the johns in the alley behind your apartment?

[FranSunsets]

@moparmonster1965 okay whos of us not being polite here?! i said my opinion on one of my fave songs and shit leave my dad out of this you little...ah i can't even find the word but seriously.

[moparmonster1965]

@FranSunsets Well, that would be you with your deeply introspective and moving post: "fuck. off."

As insightful as that was, I have to say otherwise. MHR is a shitty emo band, and that's okay; the world needs garbage music, too, I suppose. Not everything can be innovative and new and that's the reason that bands like this attract followings; people without the ability to discern good music from bad simply flock to what's popular, not what takes real talent and/or passion to create.

"Tonight, a comedian died in New York..."

[WOW55DK]

Nice sonf

[Dubbed123]

Rorschach, best character ever!?

[LightsCameraAaron]

@Dubbed123 Rorscach and Lisbeth Salander are my two favorite book characters!

[TheAnimusification]

@Dubbed123 In Watchmen, yes. But if you mean best character from anything that would have to be Barry Allen(The Flash) from The Flash.

[polipantev84]

@Dubbed123 totally man!!! i almost cried when he splattered!!!i am 27 read the comic 3 days ago and watched the movie...those heroes are so much better and real than marvel's spidey and co.

[LoveMightyBoosh131]

i really want to watch watchmen it looks really good! but im 13 so im underaged

[platypus311]

@LoveMightyBoosh131 You are a pansy

[LoveMightyBoosh131]

@platypus311

[TheArmandit0]

@LoveMightyBoosh131 i was 11 when i watched it, its a pretty good movie (:

[tomrhodes1]

@LoveMightyBoosh131

And you really care that you're under-aged?

[LoveMightyBoosh131]

@tomrhodes1

no! oohhh my brother has been on my loptop again

[ProduccionesNitrozas]

@LoveMightyBoosh131 if a girl wants to fuck with you, would you deny because youre underaged? hahaha just watch the freakin movie

[LoveMightyBoosh131]

@ProduccionesNitrozas

lol my brother posted the comment. slight mix up in accounts :P

and if a girl did want that then i would reject coz i am also a girl

[CHaRISmatikos]

It soynds more like punk than emo......

[MasterFett]

@CHaRISmatikos It's supposed to, chief. 

[punkalways182]

I just blew my eardrums out. This is amazing.

[Ninjaguy97]

Dude why did Rorschach have to die?

[tet0s4brawl]

@Ninjaguy97 because he would get in the way of the new world peace caused by a lie, and he would rather die than live in such a world

[Xc01t0nX]

im still pretty confused ive seen this movie about 15 times since it came out...when was this in the movie?

[seastorm23]

@Xc01t0nX Most probably in the credits....

[ChaosTheDawn]

when came this music in the movie?

[badtwoface]

@ChaosTheDawn The credits.

[TheDoomArt]

Rorschach's Journal: October 12th, 1985. Tonight, a comedian died in New York.

[CurlyJFries]

I thought everyone stopped talking about emos after they died along with myspace?

[BobTheSkeleton]

yea, I tend to hate MCR just cause the whole emo thing isn't really my scene, but this version is pretty badass imo

[Bengel22195]

@BobTheSkeleton mcr is NOT an EMO band!!! if you think so you dont know 'em!

[BobTheSkeleton]

@Bengel22195 okay, I guess they aren't an emo band I just kind of thought that was their gimmick?

[shaihulud4815]

@BobTheSkeleton they are an emo band.

[BBulletin]

Like a lot of Bob Dylan songs, I seem to like every version of the song I hear. (Probably because of the lyrics, obviously.)

[NecroGargoth]

Rorsach's journal , october 12th(shows the journal)

thumbs up if you went like: Fuck u doctor manhattan and all the others!!!

[PandaPurgatory]

@42prolly positively a fucking douche with no musical taste. Must remember investigating any further is pointless.

[42prolly]

Possibly homosexual, must remember to investigate further.

[StikEetToDeMan]

@MechaCEREBERUS Actually its on the right side surprisingly, the smiley and blood splatter represent a clock. This song is played at the end... Which is AFTER midnight :)

[Clonetrooperish]

People are always fighting about how MCR "Ruined this"...

Okay. Bob Dylans is obviously awesome because, well, it's him, and he was the first. But I really like this - I mean, I could just see there being a Rorschach fight scene to this...

[joemamamatt]

@Clonetrooperish Covering music is a old tradition. I don't care if you sample or what, just as long as it's good. Look up cocaine blues and see how many people did it before Johnny Cash. Do I hate Johnny's version, fuck no, it's the nuts.

[NefariousNarcissist7]

They had this?!What the hell???

[paddym667]

fuckin savage ,even tho is band is pretty gay they do fair fine job on this

[masterankerich]

What the fuck is this shit?

[thepowertoscream]

I didnt know they used MCR in Watchmen?!?!?!

[1337wuzty1337]

@thepowertoscream they played the son in the credits

[MechaCERBERUS]

anyone noticed the blood splat is on the wrong side?

[tulud]

@MechaCERBERUS

this is because the crisis already happened, this song plays in the credits when the bombs already killed millions, the smiley is meant to represent a clock, it is now past midnight during the end

[MechaCERBERUS]

@tulud oh right i knew it was at eleven coz of the clock but i didnt know it changed thx

[Jeeeerwill]

@MechaCERBERUS jawohl mein lieber herr

[ProfessorRJLupin]

Not as good as the original, but very good nevertheless.

[sam0m1023]

@Gurkenwather nothing alike



[MrSlevin350]

la sangre es en el otro ojo, figura

[superkevy11]

awesome song

[OverkillAlchemist]

Hell, I don't even like MCR and I fucking JAMMED out during the credits.

[tehwarlockuser]

@OverkillAlchemist Right? Why can't the rest of their shit be like this?

[riseagan]

can't hold a candle to the original, but gotta give respect for doing it totally different.

[anthonyjsanger]

I don't grok! WIERD --- today I was in a restaurant and they were playing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "What a Wonderful World" on the ukelele. I couldn't even recognize the standards... nor can I recognize this one.

[ourmusik2011]

love watchmen.love bob dylan.love mcr.love this song

[MrPariah29]

coz sum1 fuked up maybe... I dunno

[joelda3rd]

why is the blood stain on the smiley face the wrong side ???

[OverkillAlchemist]

@joelda3rd I never noticed that...I'm not sure. O_O

[MrPariah29]

did you spot the deliberate mistake? if so, go to the top of the class. if not, then maybe open a bloody book more often. ( it would appear I'm in one of my pedantic moods today....what an annoying twat I can be )

[MrPariah29]

as Juvenal askes in his Satires..... quis custodiet ipsos custodes. or a translation for all you illiterates out there....whos watching the watchmen....(yeah I know it should be gaurding the gaurds) think on that one my friends

[bryan050593]

'tonight a comedian died in new york'

[Uborpriest]

This is the only MCR song I've ever heard, but it's a great cover, fine by me!

[MrTheHitman147]

Anyone notice the smiley is backwards?

[DokiHelterSkelter]

Loved the comic book. Loved the movie. Love MCR. Love this song.

[Nic214E]

this is genious

[SoleMan117]

I like Dylan's better, but for some reason I can Rorschach and the Watchmen jammin' out to this.

The following is a list of technological advancements that has been predicted by hundreds of scientists in every country and the dates associated with their release...

1. Virtual/ augmented reality contact lenses (2014 to 2017)

2. Newspaper with video capabilities (in existence in japanese laboratories/ 2017 roughly)

3. Anti fat/ obesity medication in the form of a pill (2018)

4. Holographic television/advertisement. (basic form exists in laboratories in kyoto/ 2020)

5. anti age drug 2035

[ThatEpicAsian]

Ehh. This cover is okay. But the original song by Bob Dylan was better.

[stroppyloppy]

Love this. I just want to run through the town centre screaming in. Fuck yeah, bitches.

[SakkoTheSituation]

rorschach's diary: this song is fuking amazing...

[pet3rgriffin]

@SakkoTheSituation lol

[bigdunk9]

It says more about Dylan that his original isn't even on YouTube. Despite being this infamously free-spirited, drug taking liberal when he wrote the song in 1965, he now sits around in his multi-million pound house as his lawyers take all his songs off the internet. The only version we can get is this one, and even though you may not be a big fan of it, at least a popular modern band are keeping the spirit of 60's Dylan alive by covering (in my opinion) his greatest song.

[irishbull777]

@bigdunk9 you mean his record label took it off youtube you poor fool

[bigdunk9]

@irishbull777 Sure.

[TheSilentViolent]

@bigdunk9 actually, it is on youtube. it won't let me post the link. Arguement is invalid.

[bigdunk9]

@TheSilentViolent It's not on youtube, and if it is, it'll be on for about 2 or 3 days before it is taken off.

[TheSilentViolent]

@bigdunk9 /watch?v=n0onT5Us4Mk type in youtube.com then copy and paste that after it

[bigdunk9]

@TheSilentViolent blocked in my country on copyright grounds i am afraid. thanks anyway.

[TheSilentViolent]

@bigdunk9 that sucks.

[recalcitrantdefiance]

It has been a long, LONG time since there has been a song that pumps me up like this one. Just recently discovered it, and I'm going to start listening to it on my way to lifting weights and judo class...

[iamductri]

great cover, but original version is better, why dont they sing the whole song?

[82914Yingying]

@iamductri too long?

[iamductri]

@82914Yingying i mean the cover is great and if they sing the whole song, it gets better.

[82914Yingying]

@iamductri yea i agree :) but maybe because its too tiring to sing for like 10 mins? :D

[jilloplo]

Not gonna lie, I like Bob's original much better, but this is by no means a poor rendition.

[eviedream]

@jilloplo THANK you! Some one who respects both artists!

Sorry. Seeing some one who can actually accept that some one made a cover of it has totally restored my faith in humanity. Thanks.

[SoulxSpectre]

@jilloplo my chemical romance ^^

[SteelHammerpro2011]

@jilloplo Yeah, MCR did say they where a little worried about doing it and not living up to the original.

[nine1205]

great song !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nononanon]

Dear Punk Rock,

Please stop raping my favorite songs.

Sincerely, nononanon

[ad1170]

@nononanon Nope

[koala76er]

@nononanon Nah. and BTW if you don't like it go away. I like this version better

[lamesuseless27]

@nononanon

Dear MCR,

Please stop raping my favorite songs AND giving punk a bad image

Sincerely, everyone

[esivetts]

@lamesuseless27 hey guess what, they're not trying and nor have they ever tried to be punk. :) if you don't like a song, don't come to a video and complain about it. there's a lot of other music on youtube that you can enjoy.

[MrRandomminecraft]

@esivetts because no one is allowed to simply state their disposition on anything anymore on the internet . . .

[esivetts]

@MrRandomminecraft no, because it's fucking stupid to come to a video and bitch about things when you don't even have your facts straight.

[AFIrock13]

@lamesuseless27 Dear asshole,

Go jump off a bridge.

[lampshade9009]

original is so much better

[Aizawlian]

love MCR cover wayyyyyyyyyyyy better than he cover

[screwyootube1]

I LOVE this cover, but Dylan's version is still the masterpiece.

[NexCarnifex]

and im typing on a smart phone, typos will happen

[NexCarnifex]

Guys just shut the fuck up, Dylans voice and harmonnica playing are by far some of the most unpleasent things to listen too, dont even pretend this is a "bad cover", any cover of Dylan is a step up. The lyrics are grsat though, and this is good music.

[Adam12088]

@NexCarnifex Fail troll is fail. You can't cut 80% off of a poem and call it better.

[TheBlackParadeGirl11]

WHOA!!! Go MCR!!!!!!!!!

[Adam12088]

@TheBlackParadeGirl11 You'll grow out of it someday.

[TheBlackParadeGirl11]

@Adam12088 what do you mean?

[Adam12088]

@TheBlackParadeGirl11 MCR is for teenagers. Just grow up and listen to the actual song by Bob Dylan.

[MyChemicalMaddie]

@Adam12088 My parents really like MCR, and listen to them a lot. And my 28yr old brother does too. So I beg to differ..

[Adam12088]

@MyChemicalMaddie Walt Disney was a grown child, too.

[MyChemicalMaddie]

@Adam12088 Nice comeback.

[Adam12088]

@MyChemicalMaddie It's not a comeback. I don't insult mentally deficient people. It's not nice.

[MyChemicalMaddie]

@Adam12088 That's really offensive, and you need to shut up. You crossed the line.

[Adam12088]

@MyChemicalMaddie No, I feel as if I've been perfectly reasonable. Anything short of what I said would not tailor to the situation very well.

[ricdeez10]

@Adam12088

Shut up.

[Adam12088]

@ricdeez10 You mad? My chemical faggotry fans need not reply.

[aba2185]

i dont remember this song in the movie
