Welcome to the Black Parade by My Chemical Romance was a UK number 1 hit on Saturday, October 21, 2006 spending 2 week(s) at the top of the UK charts. In this song, The Patient is dying in his hospital bed. His journey to death is "The Black Parade." There could be some biblical imagery in this song, as a father tells his son at a parade to be the savior of "The broken, the beaten and the damned." The son does not think himself worthy enough to redeem these people. This could be seen as a reference to God (father) telling Moses (his son) he needs to be the savior of the Jewish people (the broken, beaten, and damned) and lead them out of Egypt. At first Moses does not think himself worthy of this task. At a 2006 concert in Pennsylvania, Gerard Way said, "The song is dedicated to all dads out there."
