– Although this song only came out last week, the other topics are not directly called "Black Parade", they are usually related to the hit My Chemical Romance song that has "the" in front of it. This is the only subject specifically titled "Black Parade".

Agree – "The Black Parade" and "Black Parade" are unlikely to be confused with one another and it is highly unlikely a 14 year old album will maintain more long-term significance than a charity single released by a much bigger artist about a much more historical topic. --

Oppose: It is honestly too soon to say if this song will be the primary topic since it was released so recently. This conversation could be reopened in a year or two, but right now does not seem like an appropriate time.

Billboard Hot 100 peak in "Charts" table should read 37 not 77. Already correct in the "Commercial performance" section.
