Now, people are using the term emo for ANYTHING that's related to emotion. They're calling bands like My Chemical Romance, Panic! At The Disco and Dashboard Confessional emo, even though they don't fit into the genre. But why is it so? That people (even the producers and the people working in MTV) keep calling bands "emo", though they're not part of the genre, when they even reject it? Is it because that the word "emo" is becoming a more generic term, or is it just misunderstanding?
