bagelfeet Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Does anyone else think that On The Wagon is underrated? That is a fucking GREAT song. Especially the chorus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefano Bras Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 All the trilogy is fucking underrated... Damn it gets me mad. Those records have A LOT of awesomes songs that in my opinion can be 'All time favorites'. C'mon.. Just hear Rusty James, Fell For You, Wild One, Stray Heart, X-Kid or Brutal Love for a bit.. 10/10 Songs right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob2123 Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Kerplunk: "Words I might have Ate". When you ask most fans about this album, the only song they would know is Christie Road (or they wouldn't know any). Words I might have Ate is a song with good lyrics and it sounds even better on acoustic. Dookie: "Emenius Sleepus". My favourite song on Dookie (at the moment). I love the lyrics. It speaks about meeting an old friend and how this friend reminded the writer of how they used to be in the past. I also love the drum section near the end. Nimrod: Scattered. Should've been a single and everybody knows it, but it is still a pretty popular song so I'm not sure if it fits here. meh. Second option is "Worry Rock" or "Haushinka". Warning: "Jackass". Always loved this song's melody. Reminds me of a Beatle's song. American Idiot: "Extraordinary Girl". I think most of us were turned off by the intro, but once you get passed that its a great song. 21st Century Breakdown: "Last Night on Earth" is really under-appreciated and its a great song. I love a good ballad. Bonus Songs on 21st Century Breakdown: "Heart's Collide" and especially "Light's Out". Both really under-appreciated songs. I think that Heart's Collide could have been a good song for Uno and Lights Out for Tre. Too bad they were wasted as bonuses. Uno: "Fell For You". My favourite song on Uno. Classic corny love song that I love. Dos: "Wild One". Too lazy to come up with more shit to write. Tre: "8th Avenue Serenade" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayonaise Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 39/Smooth I will count as 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours: 409 In Your Coffeemaker ; Every song on this album is underrated, but I think "409 In Your Coffeemaker" takes the cake. Kerplunk!: One For the Razorbacks ; I don't know, I just really like this song Dookie: F.O.D. ; We all have someone in our lives who we want to F.O.D., I find this to be one of the most relatable Green Day songs. Insomniac: Stuck With me ; Yes, it's a single. But who ever talks about it? I think it's the best Green Day song in general and I can relate to it. (I suck at sticking up for myself) Nimrod: Jinx ; Awesome song about messing up. (It's about messing up, right?) Warning: Deadbeat Holiday ; Why wasn't this a single? American Idiot: Extraordinary Girl ; What Bob2123 said. 21st Century Breakdown: Murder City ; I really only like 4 or 5 songs on 21CB, "Murder City" is one of them. Uno!: Rusty James ; Based on a book I really like. And the chorus is just awesome. Dos!: Makeout Party ; My third favorite on the entire trilogy! Tré!: Amanda ; Reminds me of a certain Amanda I know.

Clean Cut Asshole Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Some of these aren't my favorite songs from the album, just what I believe to be the most underrated. 1,039 - "I Want to Be Alone" It's not my fav on the record but I do think it's great and I don't hear it get enough praise. I do identify with this song sometimes Kerplunk - "Private Ale" Kinda the same story as "I Want to Be Alone" Dookie - "Sassafras Roots" This is actually my fav on Dookie, and again, I don't hear it get enough praise. This was actually my fav song for the longest time Insomniac - "Tight Wad Hill" Again, not my fav on the album but I think it's pretty good and deserves more attention, by fans and during live shows Nimrod - "Redundant" My fav on the album. It was a fucking single but it wasn't that popular, which I think is shitty, it's a great tune! Warning - "Macy's Day Parade" Same story as "Redundant", except I'm not sure if it's my fav on the album American Idiot - "Extraordinary Girl" I hear tons of people bash on this song, but it's actually one of my favs on this album 21st Century Breakdown - "Christian's Inferno" Same story as "Extraordinary Girl" Trilogy - None It basically all sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laetitia Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Okay, so I kind of have a lot. Some of what I wrote really does sound rather stupid, but, bear with me. (I'll finish this when I have time.) 1,039 Smoothed Out/Slappy Hours - 16 or At The Library Kerplunk - Who Wrote Holden Caulfield Dookie - Having A Blast Insomniac - Westbound Sign Nimrod - Redundant and Prosthetic Head Warning - Church on Sunday, Macy's Day Parade, and Misery American Idiot - Letterbomb and HOMECOMING. I honestly think the latter is better than JoS. And Whatsername is underrated too. - The first song, well, I like the angry energy that it has, and I think the point it represents in JoS's story is a very crucial one. Homecoming is a song that I was really truly obsessed with for a while. Even though it's essentially a mash-up of five very different songs, there's a sort of harmony to its disorganized-ness and it depicts really the end of AI. Whatsername is one of the only songs that can make me sob like a baby. I love the alternating soft parts and loud ones. like a conversation. There's a power to that strength, and it's depressing and relatable, even more so than many other fantastic songs off AI.It's grounded and the pain and regret is so real. I would also include When It's Time if I could, mostly because it's not very well known and is simple and direct, and sweet. 21st Century Breakdown - Restless Heart Syndrome, Horseshoes and Handgrenades, American Eulogy, Before The Lobotomy, and See The Light - RHS is downright heartwrenching and about the pain one has to deal with after addiction to prescription drugs. What's not to love? I think HaH is really underrated because that dirty guitar sound is something that GD wasn't doing much at this point in their career and HaH is just an extremely good nihilistic song to listen to when you feel livid. American Eulogy I think deserves more recognition because it's the only "medley" song that GD put on 21stCB. Plus, it's very invigorating to listen to. I would also put The Static Age on here--I don't know why, but I think it belongs. See The Light is such a wonderfully--well, I can't find the word--hopeful and uplifting, yet sad. It's like the light at the end of the tunnel, the end of the beginning. ¡Uno! - Carpe Diem, Angel Blue, Troublemaker, or Loss of Control Really, most of ¡Uno! (my favorite album of the three) and, the trilogy in general, is criminally underrated. I honestly think the only REALLY cringe-worthy track on the trilogy is Nightlife. I want to burn that song with fire and then deposit its ashes in a deep-sea trench. - I like this entire album and think the whole thing is underrated because I really like how the guys took the classic GD sound (referring to post-Warning GD) and tweaked it just a little. This album honestly just sounds like regular GD. And that sound is what drew me to them at first. ¡Dos! - Wild One or Baby Eyes - While I like Stray Heart a lot, I don't think that it should've been the only single (I think it was, right?) off the album. And, since I really do loathe Nightlife and Lady Cobra, I would have to go with either Wild One or Baby Eyes. I like the wild party-ish groove (God I sound weird) they've got going on. ¡Tré! - X-Kid, Walk Away, Dirty Rotten Bastards, or The Forgotten - The first two I really find very emotionally moving and even though X-Kid got its own music video (a kid of crappy one, but, nonetheless, a video), I feel like that song has a sort of slightly beachy vibe but, at the same time, is so plaintive. DRB I think some might dismiss because it's a bit of a mess of a song, but it's really fun to sing along to and I like the energy it has (I admit this is a lame reason, but, moving on). I've seen loads of GD fans diss The Forgotten just because it was in 'Twilight'. Yeah, I honestly detest 'Twilight' as much as the next person (i.e. vehemently) but that's not the only thing that makes the song what it is. It's certainly not a masterpiece like JoS, but it's so mournful and moving (and sappy too, but it's still pretty good) that I think it can stand on its own without the 'Twilight' association.
