Is that on their new album?

Aww.. I linked to this because the chorus and the general sound of both songs are damn similar. "Welcome to the Black Parade" minus the marching music introduction and its bombastic arrangements could have easily been a track on "Three cheers...". In fact, it's still pretty much a reprise of "I'm not okay" to me. Admit it, it's the piano that got you!
I don't know if your son has the full album (pretty nice artwork!), but there's a lot of stuff on "The Black Parade". My fav is probably "Mama", and that's not because of Liza Minnelli, although she suits that tune damn fine.
"Cancer" I like as well, although most people seem to hate it. Quite a little bit of Lennon going on there.
Fugazi - Full disclosure.
