My Chemical Romance Blasted By Fans For Pulp's 'Common People' Cover

March 31, 2011

My Chemical Romance have been blasted by fans for covering Pulp's 'Common People'.

The band performed the cover version on Radio 1's Live Lounge this morning (March 31).

However, the version didn't seem to go down well with Pulp fans who launched an attack on the band over Twitter and YouTube.

Catfairy1011 tweeted: 'My chemical romance covering common people. i have died a little bit inside. [sic]'

Whilst OlaSunshine said: "This is epic. Is there more from the live lounge?"

My Chemical Romance will join the Foo Fighters, Lady Gaga and Tinie Tempah at this year's Radio 1 Big weekend.
