There's two different types of emo; there's angry emo, closely related to punk, punk rock, etc.... that's where songs like My Chemical Romance's I'm not Okay fall in. This is for people with issues and need an outlet for it. Then there's sad emo, the contemplative soft sad kind that really gets you emo when you're initially not. Songs by Damien Rice tend to fall into this category.

I've been listening to a lot of Damien Rice's (and Corrinne May's) songs and it's getting me emo. mind you that this is an induced state of emo and not a genuine reflection of emotions.

But after all this, what's the point??? well, I'm actually killing time before my bread get toasted and my chicken patty gets cooked for my late night snack. :)
