Why am I just now hearing this?

Okay, so I knew MCR did a cover of this song, and I'd only heard it once like a REALLY long time ago, but I just listened to this and the cover and I'm just like...OMG. This song is awesome! Why am I just now hearing this? Am I the only one who, after hearing this for the first real time, knew things would be slightly different after the song ended? I just...love it. It not only has a really good beat to it, kinda catchy, but I like what the song is saying. It's pretty straight forward, but it's kinda like 'the grass is always greener on the other side'. Rich people might say, "Man, they look like they're having so much fun." and the poor (or the common people) are just like, "I wish I had money like that!" There is no 'perfect life', and that's what I think this song is trying to say. :)
