Billie Joe Armstrong performs a raw, uncensored, at-home version of Green Day's 'Graffitia'!

[GreenDayItaly]

 

Billie Joe Armstrong checked in with RADIO.COM from home to deliver this stripped down, acoustic masterpiece of 'Graffitia.'

[Jon Benjamin]

Aw holy fuck

[pacejunkie punk]

 

It’s like an alternate universe performance!!! And bonus Lenny! 😂 

What a gift I’m speechless. 😍😍😍

[jengd]

Fan bloody tastic, this is awesome. 👏👏👏👏❤️

[pacejunkie punk]

So we got BOBD Sunday, Johnny Thunders cover Monday and this today. I swear he’s been more productive in quarantine than he was during promotion. I call it a silver lining. 
 

And could you just see Graffitia as an acoustic encore in a set?

[WorryRock02]

god...Billie's so productive during this quarantine ❤️ i'm totally in love with his voice...

[suffoKate]

I'd hate to be that gum in his mouth at the end there (or would i love to be?)

[Duhhan1023]

YES

This man is giving me life lately. I initially expected this thread to be an April Fool's joke. 

[Little Boy Named Booze]

WOW!

[BilIie Joe Armstrong]

Remember what song I requested when they announced the fox performance?  I will take this as a sign he reads GDC

[Guest]

Whaaat 
This is wonderful. 😍😭 The acoustic version sounds amazing 

Billie's looking at the ceiling like ???? 😂

[RedundantIdiot]

What a wonderful performance of the song!

And the bit where he rolled his eyes will make great memes 🙄

That mean he know how much you hate the Hella Mega and that make him sad.

[Aidana]

Hm if that’s how they are planning to play it live, I’d rather have them not play new songs at all. Sorry if I sound rude but that was horrendous imho.

[greendepent]

Well, that was unexpected...

Graffitia is not an acoustic song lol. With  full band it will be amazing.

He wasn't prepared to play it  you can tell he's just going for it. 

There's a lot of positives to take from it though it wasn't horrendous he was just a little disorganized and unprepared. 

If they were to practice this constantly for the tour in their rotation of 40 songs it would be perfectly fine.

For real I legit thought it was another of those mislabeled clips of BOBD before I played it and lost my shit 😄

I know he wasn’t. It’s just that his voice seems weak and dry.  Gd concert at Sevilla was one of the best, they are still on top no doubt. The thing that bothers me is that cold attitude of his towards the new material.

That’s what he deserves for saying he won’t play FOAM stuff 

[Montclare]

That smile.    And Lenny yawning.  This is all daily life to him.

His voice is fine he's sounding better than how he sounded at record release time.

He sounded awful back then though... (and super out of tune for the Oh Yeah performances)

[JOE THE X-KID]

Beautiful
