Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Fake Your Death. By Songfacts®.

My Chemical Romance released this single to commemorate the release of its greatest hits compilation May Death Never Stop You. It was described by former frontman Gerard Way as the "last MCR song" in a statement. "What was not so obvious at the time was that the song was, and would serve as, a eulogy for the band, though I should have known it from the lyrics," Way said. "I think internally I did, as I felt an odd sense of sadness and loss after hearing back the words on top of the music. I also felt a strange sense of pride in how honest it was, and could not remember a band recording a song of this nature, being so self-aware. Ending felt like something honest, and honest always feels like something new."

The May Death Never Stop You album was released on March 24, 2014. The group said: "The title is fitting, because as sad as it was to say goodbye to the band, we look at this collection as a celebration of our best songs, and hope the memory of them continues to bring joy to you all as they have for us. We hope you take the journey with us into MCR's past, and enjoy the small taste of what might have been."
