MCR is one of those songs that is (was) a cool classic rock track that got beat to freakin' death on FM radio over the years and still is to this day. Used to like it, but now it's pretty much in the same boat (for me) as All Right Now (Free), The Joker (Steve Miller), Rock and Roll (Zeppelin), Strawberry Fields (Beatles), Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen). They just can't give it a rest... thus the reason for my disdain for all of the above.
