boosho Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Ahhhhh American Idiot Ok so while i had liked Green Day before AI, its because of AI that my obsession started Seriously this album is just beyond any words i can think of ... JOS is beyond epic.. My all time fav. but it think it just sits in a category on its own... letterbomb is The most amazing thing about this album is you can listen to it as a whole of course but every single song on that album hold its own weight and has its own meaning so you can listen to it separately and still love it.. Seriously This band and especially Billie have this incredible Godlike ability to write the most amazing songs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umbjisfhinefum Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 i can't really pinpoint the very first green day song i ever heard...but holiday was the first video. and i was fucking hooked. i remember getting up at like 5:30 in the morning to watch music videos on tv and just about shitting my pants when holiday came on. i think AI is my favorite album. i can't say for sure...but i think it is. i feel bad for those green day fans who don't listen to it because they think gd "sold out" or w/e....i really don't care if they did, because AI is fucking genius. i can't even explain why i love this album so much.... edit: but i fucking HATE extraordinary girl...i deleted it off my ipod and the album still sounds perfectly fine without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i think Extraordinary girl is a beautiful song.. "Somedays he feels like dying, She gets so sick of crying " Describes how i feel a lot... its just beauiful.. The only annoying thing about the song is the begining.. i know its supposed to be a build up to the song but i just find it a bit irratating..

jacknovella Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I owe a lot to American Idiot, it's the album that got me into Green Day, and not just new Green Day, through listening to it and learning more about them as musicians I came across their older stuff and I love that too.

Clayish Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I am nothing without American Idiot. That album changed me, and without it, I wouldn't have discovered my biggest passion. Its Green Day's opus, and always will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D: i mean... Those lyrics are so powerful... "Somedays he feels like dying, somedays is not worth trying, now that they both are finding, she gets so sick of crying" this. it's like: "aaarrgh! start already" My mom loves gypsy music... And I love those weird drums They make me wanna jump and all, don't know why although... IS IT NORMAL TO ALWAYS FORGET ABOUT WMUWSE?! When I'm playing the whole album in guitar, with the record in the background, I inmediatly start playing homecoming after letterbomb, and, suddenly, I heard the tun tun tuun, tun tun tuuun of the accoustic gutar and it's like "SHIIT!" xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maura99 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I'm so glad other people like Homecoming My favorite part is in the beginning when he says "What the hell's your name? What's your pleasure? What is your pain?" <33333 Yeah, Homecoming is one of my favorite songs on the album too. It has got some really brilliant lyrics, and some kicks ass guitar riffs. I absolutely love the one after 'Rock&Roll Girlfriend' (with the 'hey' in the middle, if you what I'm talking about), that's just insanely good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
