Not quite, but fucking BOOM. Source Oh, wait: Source

I don't understand the hate for Baby Eyes. I found it really catchy from day one. Some of the lyrics are kind of confusing, like when he talks about the killing and the babysitting, but the melody is really nice.

Poor trolling attempt 0/10. I've literally never seen you successfully justify your dislike for AI at all. "I don't like other fans" isn't a good reason.

He was born to kill (The Forgotten).

It took me under a minute Enjoy.

SPIN, October 2005

yeah it's good, it's a bit different to Green Days usual stuff and I'd say it's one of the better trilogy songs

Such dedication.

Just pointing out this isn't the "discuss Steven Seagull" thread , you can disagree with his unpopular Green Day opinions or post evidence that they're suspect if you want but we don't need a general discussion about any particular GDCer (or a discussion that seems to be drifting away from unpopular Green Day opinions in any case) here.

Yay, the curse has passed from me to him!

I'm sure he realizes deep down that it's bullshit. He probably just got sucked into the "old Greenday rawk! nu Greenday sux!" camp too soon and is now overcompensating in his attempts to appear as a "true fan".

There's a reason the tribute album was made this year...

Whilst reading those posts I can't help but wonder that it may be that Steven once was a decent and respectable contributor? If thats is true, it is quite sad to notice how low one can sink I suggest, I solemnly propose with a delightful heart, that everytime he bashes people who love AI the most or people who became fans because of it, we should answer with that post. Blah what a hypocrite

To be honest I don't find the lyrics of 21 Guns to be bad at all, or incomprehensible or anything. I like them. They make far more sense than that pocketful of shit called the Forgotten. The Forgotten is one of those songs I suppose I would enjoy with no hesitation if I didn't have the basic knowledge of English. Damn.

He's played with them a few times now. I hope you do get to see them and that Billie makes an appearance, would be so cool to see that in person! They're from Costa Rica 2010, for anyone who cares.

Thanks to Tom's analysis, The Forgotten has now topped Baby Eyes as my least favorite Green Day song. Thanks man.

9 Songs To Hate Your Parents To 1. Green Day “Jesus of Suburbia” “I’m the son of rage and love,” Billie Joe Armstrong sings to open this track off Green Day’s 2005 album, American Idiot, which is a very eloquent way of saying he was raised by bipolar parents. Armstrong, like many restless teenagers, is sick of it all: his mom, his stepfather, his hometown and his friends. He epitomizes the struggle of suburban kids, who are railing against boredom and alienation. The track solidified Green Day’s career as the band that makes you want to run away and defile your local mall’s bathroom in protest against the government or anything else that’s bumming you out. Grab those sharpies, kids. http://radio.com/2014/08/01/9-songs-to-hate-your-parents-to-eminem-disturbed-lady-gaga/

Watching a documentary about classic rock'n'roll and Green Day were talking about Johnny B Goode! Had no idea they were going to be there, and it was awesome!

Yeah not massively into those parts, although I don't think they're much less clear than some of the lyrics in 21 Guns (that being the main ballad of their previous album). I really like the chorus/ending lyrics though Don’t look away from the arms of a moment Don’t look away from the arms of tomorrow Don’t look away from the arms of a moment Don’t look away from the arms of love Just a nice simply put sentiment and nice conclusion to come to at the end of the albums, after everything that happened seizing the moment, looking forward and love are the things that matter.

That's why it was on Twillight

Brutal Love - one of the best songs they've written The Forgotten - one of the worst they've written. I really can't stand it.

Spin, August 2002. Will probably be of interest to the folks assembling tour pages on GDT, too.
