Emo kids are sterotypically emotional, whiny kids that... well... look at the first link to see how they dress and look at the second link to read more about them.\nPretty much if you have a myspace.com account you will run into plenty of them.\nThey're also referred to as 'scene' kids because they want to be where the best scene is aka where the good concerts are and what not.

Fool, Emo sucks beyond anything ever made. All those goddamn emo kids do is stand around adn cry when they listen to music. The whole self-masochism thing is way uncool.

I keep hearing about Emo's. What the hell is an Emo? Since when is a kid who is all 'wah-wah-I-hate-my-life-' a new trend?

Okay, here's the thing. Emo is a term short for "Emotional". These kids sit at home crying to themselves, feeling sorry for themselves. They get their little hissy fits out by listening to My Chemical Romance and other such crap. Now, there's alot more music out there which can express how you feel, whether it's positive or not, but it's sure as hell better than listening to "How can this happen to me..." Jesus, how can it happen to me that some idiot actually gave Simple Plan a recording contract?\n\nAnd I've had a hard life. Heavy metal all the way. But I channel my anger, I don't mope. Do you hear kids in Rwanda listening to that sh*t??!!\n\n\nI wish my lawn was emo, then it would cut itself...

"I AM EXTREMELY EMO!!"

Another one of society's labels!\n\nReally, EMO stands for emotional. It is linked to music & 'different' people. Sometimes associated with 'girl' pants and 'emo' music, black hair in the eyes, and most commonly, with cutting, this label takes people who are different from us and sets them apart.\n\nI think emos are nice. The label is a stereotype. Just like: preps can be nice, jocks can be shy, and goths can be, well, not creepy.\n\nI am me. I don't choose to label myself. I think you should do the same.\n\nI hope I have answered your question reguarding emos, and that you realize this is just another stereotype some crazy person has come up with.\n\nIn a word: emotional.

As a music genre it is an emotionally charged form of music [in the family of punk and hardcore, I'd guess you'd say -- as much as it hurt to say that.] \n\nNowadays it's taken on a new meaning, it's an attitude; a way of being; a fashion statement. \n\nThere was this girl once that had a shirt that said "Emo girl" on the front, on the back it said "I like to cry." THAT is my definition of emo.

I use the word to describe an insane/chaotic situation.  \nThe exact definition is: \nme·shu·gaas or mish·e·gaas or mish·e·goss\nn. Slang \nCrazy or senseless activity or behavior; craziness.

Music that is supposed to come from deep emotions and envoke those emotions within you.\n\nMost of it is depressing.  EMO KIDS ROCK!  lol - yeah, it's a way of life.  like being goth but not as dark.\n\nIn the 80's we called it new wave (Depeche Mode, the Cure...)  same thing different generation.\n\nYes, Dashboard Confessional, Death cab for cutie, funeral for a friend, Coldplay.....

Err, please don't call that stuff emo.  Emo is a whole other form of music, more closely related to punk, which basically died out in 95.  Think Rites of Spring.\n\nAbout the music you described, I guess everyone has their own tastes.

Hey,I've heard that song,it's from Adam & Andrew. "I must be Emo". Yup,I saw them on myspace. Anyway....\nEmo started out as music. Now,it has it's own type of clothing. Tight pants,and the emo hair. Goths wear black. People who listen to rap wear baggy clothes. They all have their different styles. Everyone thinks their cool,everyone wants to be cool.They don't necessarily have to be form a certain group such as emo.

I think emo is just a pathetic fad.  Emo kids aren't truly sad, they just want attention.  Emo is fake.

i am kinda emo...emo is not JUST about cutting yourself it is also about ROCKING OUT.  but it does talk about how life can suck and how nobody understands them.  simple plan, good charlotte, green day, mcr, aar, they are all good examples.
