No Fun Mondays


Little Boy Named Booze

Recommended Posts

Another banger! It keeps me going having these covers to look forward to.

Does anyone know - is Billie playing all the instruments involved on these recordings? I know he can play all a ton of instruments, but I wasn't sure if it's all him in the No Fun Mondays releases. If it is, that makes it all the more impressive.

I think he is but purely because he isn’t crediting anyone else on YouTube and I’m sure he would, I can’t see him ignoring his boys if they were on there with him. Also, I think Joey especially was not in Oakland when lockdown started, don’t know about Jakob.  It will be interesting to see what happens tonight on Corden though.

I think like he did with the Longshot band he’ll play with his boys on a song for Corden but he makes his own demos (and likewise these NFM songs) playing all the instruments and has done for a long time.

ITWAN went from 23 on Hot Rock to 11 (and is higher than Oh Yeah currently is on that chart) and went from 18 to 15 on Adult Pop.

😂 I get that he needs Mike and Tre for emotional support but musically? 🤔

Lyrics: (I think these are the official ones though it sounds like he changed a few)

 

Snow falls and we make our way

To frontiers we are sent

Delay can be dangerous

Danger till the end

Back against the wall

Young men heed the call

Prisoners taken oh oh

Soon be going home

Chorus

War Stories Sergeant Fury

War Stories Captain Hurricane

War Stories Johnny Red

War Stories This is it, This is it

Night falls as the tanks roll by

I signal but in vain

Scared but I'm prepared to die

I smile to hide my pain

Gonna save my soul

It's the all-time low

Generals keep the score

Soon be going home

Repeat Chorus

V-E is near they say

Liberation Holiday

Invasion ally day

We're in sight of victory

Back against the wall

Young men heed the call

Prisoners taken oh oh

Soon be going home

War Stories

War Stories

War Stories Johnny Red

War Stories This is it, This is it

 

Thanks, I couldn't find them online anywhere!  Sounds like Billlie changed "Prisoners Taken" to "prisoners take control"  the first time he sings it.   The other differences are minor like IN in place of it's.     Which happens with lyrics that Billie wrote himself most of the time.   haha.  

Billie does some different vocal styles in this one, I love it.

Finally listened to the cover. It may be my favorite one of the bunch! It's fantastic! Still hoping Billie will do a Cure cover. He probably won't but as an avid Cure fan, I can dream.

He seems to be doing songs that he hasn't played before. Im actually surprised that he hasn't done a Husker Du or Replacements song for as big a fan as he is.

I guess there are so many good songs out there, he could do Gen x or Bowie, Damned, Monkeys,  so many I could imagine him doing.

Hopefully we will run out of quarantine before he ever runs out of good songs

Add three more charts for ITWAN-it's at #10 for Rock Digital Song Sales, #28 for Adult Contemporary, and #48 for Canada Hot AC.

OOoo Billie doing a Billy Idol song. What a great idea! I think he could have a lot of fun doing Mony Mony.

Video from a RevRad show finally?  If it’s Green Day performing together they’ve been reading my posts 😂 but I doubt it.  I’m gonna guess a bonus Billie Joe cover with a video of footage from the RevRad tour.

If it’s a video from a RevRad show I might cry a little while watching, but I won’t admit it.
