At the risk of getting off the thread's original topic, I will add this:
So what you're saying is that it's alright to WRITE emo music, but not to listen to it - excessively?
It is true that "emo" lyrics are almost the only thing you can really dwell on, though. Almost every other genre says exactly what it means, or just isn't that relevant to everyday life. I mean, (choosing random song) how often does Ozzy Osbourne's "Bark at the Moon" relate to your life? Maybe if you had a really annoying dog, but other than that, it's not like something you'd think about. But if you had loved a girl, and she had moved away before you told her, well maybe you'd think about the line "These things take forever, I especially am slow" a couple times (From Bright Eyes' "First Day of My Life").

But to dwell on a problem does nothing but make it worse. Anyway, if you wish to continue this, we can make a thread in the debate hall.

[shadow=red,left,300] The Greatest Musical Artists of the Number One Era[/shadow] 1. Strongbad: "I wish that we could fall in love so I could break up with you" is the greatest 2. Aerosmith: America's greatest rock band EVER! 3. Beatles: The greatest band EVER! except for Aerosmith 4. Arlo Guthre: Alice's Restaurant's length alone merits him on this list. The accusation in the live version of the song that the 18:20 erased from the Nixon tapes that got him impeached was in fact Alice's Resataurant gets him passed Kiss. 5. Kiss: Detroit Rock City! :(Worst Musical Artists of all Time 5. Korn 4. Rap in general- Yes lets have absolutely no law and order, and lets let all the poor urban kids your encouraging to a life of crime instead of staying in school, vandalize your huge mansions and your gold teeth! 3. Vanilla Ice- He steals from Queen, had really bad hair, is a chronic liar, and say word to your mother way to much. Plus in saying this phrase he refuses to use 'r'. 2. Britney Spears- She used to be hot, now she looks like a cheap whore 1. Country Music- One should not brag being White Trash or their inability to be proficent in the English Language. School is your friend!

There's way too many subgenres. It's gotten crazy. There's punk (the real punk), and pop-punk/punkcore, and then fake Emo and real Emo and it's getting way too confusing. No wonder there's so many misunderstandings.
Like all those foolish "goth" kids at my school who listen to Cradle of Filth, Manson, Slipknot etc. And have never even heard of Siouxsie Sioux or Bauhaus or Sisters of Mercy.
It saddens me.
And Fireball if you're still around and stuff. (I don't come here enough.) I respect your opinion on liking AFI, but honestly, I don't see the appeal. I can't stand their music, or them, and most of their fans make me want to be sodomized inquisition style.
But I ain't dissing you. Even though I said their fans suck, cuz they do.
But not you. Your an exception or something.
Though they still suck.
But it's okay.
Yes.

Uh, thanks Corey, I guess. I understand what you mean about the misinterpretations of all the music. It is hell.
