What would "18 and life" be without Ricky?

A new YouTube channel was created just one week ago. Well, a lot of channels were created then I guess. But there is one that has captured my attention to the fullest. I didn't even have to try to like it. I just did. This channel is actually a part of us all. We are all moved by music, it's like it speaks to us. Well, thanks to this channel you can now literally here your music speak to you. Beautiful and strong melodies is what most often catches our attention to begin with when we hear a new song, but it's the lyrics that bounds us forever. What would "I will always love you" be without Whitney's heartbreaking confession that she doesn't feel good enough? What would "18 and life" be without Ricky?

Amp Rock TV gets this and has therefore created something called THE WORDS as a way of making lyrics even more powerful. They have asked some artists to turn it into what it really is.... poetry! At this moment there are four videos up from Black Veil Brides, Marilyn Manson, Korn and My Chemical Romance where the singers reads the lyrics. It's beautiful, it's heartbreaking, it's real...
I'm not particulary interested in Manson's music but jeez, his lyrics are brilliant! The same with My Chemical Romance... "When we were young we used to say that you only hear the music when your hearts begins to break". Since this new project has become such a huge success I am hoping that Amp Rock TV will put up more videos like this in the near future. Keep a lookout!

We have nowhere to go
No one to wish us well
A cry to find our home
Our stories they will tell

Take joy in who you are
We know our wings are flawed
We are the Fallen Angels
