Emo
1. A new-age style of music developed by musicians such as Emmanuel from Emo Dagher who incorporate powerful emotion into lyrics with uplifting music accompanying. This could also be called 'soulful music' as the overall tone is relatively positive.

2. A dark genre of music that combines varied rock music type instrumentation with often depressed, depressing or downright whiney lyrics. This is in a way punk music gone bad due to a combination of depression, low self esteem and people apparently wanting to feel more depressed thanks to the singer whining about their problems. This could also be due to wanting to relate with it, but in the end it only turns a grim mind state into a rather generic lifestyle.

3. The people who walk around dressed in gothic/punkish clothing who constantly act depressed and/or monotone due to several reasons, usually including lack of attention from both peers and family, not wanting to get over their problems, and a dominating 'victim' mindset which usually causes them to falsely believe they can't do anything about their problems. This is obviously a foolish choice on the part of the individual but stupid and/or brainwashed people seem to enjoy not enjoying themselves, so in this writer's opinion, let 'em whine, just make sure they do it somewhere else.

4. An attempt to get 'friends' made most often by people who have none. In such cases as this the individual gives up their individuality for sake of conforming entirely to what these 'friends' say is right to be accepted. In reality these are not the person's friends as they are apparently very superficial and in some amusing cases, these same people can walk around whining about how others conform.
1. "Dude, this emo daugher group actually puts positive vibes out! Maybe emo isn't just all them whiney teens."

2. Jahred (from Hed P.E.) - "Friends do not let friends listen to emo!"

3. Also Jahred from the end of the song 'Game Over' - "Go ahead, spend your money on some stupid fuckin trend! Some shit that's gonna be gone by next year. Wear your hair like a girl, wear girl pants like a fuckin queer! Keep whining about your little cheating slut of a girlfriend! Like a fuckin little baby.. be a man... Checkmate.. ha!"

4. From the Emo song made by adam and andrew - "You can be a nonconformist too if you look just like me."
