xBlaydeRx Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 On the song holiday, has anyone notice billie saying "Seh" instead of "The"? Try not to be a damn asshole, it's only a question. It almost sounds like he's saying "This is "A" dawning of the rest of our lives" instead of "This is "The dawning of the rest of our lives" The song would of been more powerful if he added "The" instead of say "Seh dawning " Comments??

Guest Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Billie Joe has pretty much zero concept of grammar. The fact that he writes such good songs despite this is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penguin Puffball Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Because he doesn't know how to enunciate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chin for a Day Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 I actually think he is slurring the is and the together so it is This sthe dawning instead of This is the dawning. Have you noticed that on 21st Century Breakdown and the trilogy he almost over enunciates. Almost like he took speech therapy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sauli Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 And ironically, as the quality of his lyrics got worse, his enunciation got better. That's a shame, really. Nobody needs the lyrics of Makeout Party enunciated clearly but many of us would love to understand the lyrics on Insomniac without incessantly needing the aid of the lyrics sheets.

Trotsky Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Seh is the Hebrew word for 666 and heroin. It's a subliminal message.

Alan86 Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 AKA Broadway training.for the Trilogy maybe, 21st Century Breakdown was recorded and released nearly a year before anything happened on Broadway and even longer than that by the time Billie started training for a Broadway performance.
