Todd Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Those are shitty reasons, I'd never use them to justify my love for Green Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funky Kong Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Those are defiantly not the most solid of reasons but as mentioned by others its buzzfeed nothing else could have been expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tightwad Hill Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 1. Never grew up with them 2. They no longer do The Network 3. True 4. Far from other artists 5. They never won a Teen Choice Award 6. The Broadway show was subpar at best 7. Doesn't make the whole band great 8. Never want crazy to Basket Case 9. I literally cried to it 10. Then they died 11. Dat love 12. Doesn't make the whole band great either 13. Not musically great, but good as a role model to them 14. Meh 15. Too bad they sucked 16. He doesn't do it all the time 17. That's what makes Billie Joe so great 18. True 19. So does every other band 20. One of the reasons why I'm a fan 21. Except making The Trilogy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Nothing wrong with any of the reasons listed, although there are many better reasons. #11 is my favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overjoyyed Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 I like the recognition from the General population. Always nice to hear Green Day pop up now and again outside of GDC and my own Green Day bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Like many have said, the list is pretty random and/or meaningless. Here's my list: After nearly 30 years, they are still releasing new albums and having songs on the radio. They are indeed the "last gang in town" their catalog is timeless. Some songs don't hold up after 30 years. Heck, most songs sound awful the following year. Not with Green Day They know how to change it up, while staying recognizable. They have style their songs are so much deeper than other musicians. See them live!!!!!!!!!! American Idiot 75 Million Sold Hey Ho's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially for 1) and 2) Yeah everything on that list can be applied to a lot of bands. Plus it's 25 years not 30. And the Trilogy received fuck all radio play in a lot of countries. Also, explain to me how deep the following songs are And those hey ohs are as annoying as fuck. JOS and Hitchin A Ride are now chores live, instead of being absolute blasts.

Guest Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Are you shitting me? Well, the first 4/5ths of JOS are a blast, but don't try and tell me you don't want to stab Billie repeatedly in the neck with a biro when he screams hey oh for OVER A MINUTE AND A FUCKING HALF before going into the outro.

I find it jolly good fun when I'm there in the crowd . Bit different watching it on video but when it's a call and response you're involved in it's fine.

But then again I absolutely hate the hey ohs. Time wasted that could be better spent playing more songs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spark in the night Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Hahahaha those are terrible reasons. #1 and #11 and good, but omg the rest are just stupid. #18 is so deep though. hits me right in the feels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purple Haze Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Not exactly amazing reasons are they. Releasing 3 albums over a 5 month period wasn't exactly a reason to say Green day are still the best. I liked the one about the lyrics to WMUWSE though. To be honest, if those are the only 21 reasons you're a green day fan, you must be 10 years old. There are plenty of other reasons that Green Day is still the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
