American Idiot never gets boring, I've heard the song so many times but it's so cleverly written and extremely important in Green Days career.

bad....... production???????

I named my new bong Letterbong

How anyone can say Jesus of surburbia is a bad song is beyond me.

When it's for those reasons yes, it's wrong.

I think you'll find that numerous people, Praxus included, have explained their dislike of the Trilogy multiple times. Something you've never done with AI.

Ever heard about a thing called subjectivity? Even though Todd is a dirty hipster, he has a right to his opinion and at least he doesn't call everyone else fake fans

Nope. It's my all time favorite. I love Dookie and Kerplunk and American Idiot. But I'm 16, I relate to 39/Smooth probably a lot better than adults do. And I'm sure I'll outgrow it for that reason, but for now I want to enjoy it while I can.

At least Seagull lives up to his name as a seagull - shitting on everything.

> loves the albums whose singles were Oh Love, Kill the DJ, Stray Heart and The Forgotten.

AI is easily the most important song in their back catalogue.

There wasn't a mainstream "Fuck Bush" theme. First off, the only song that's "Fuck Bush" is American Idiot itself, the rest has very little to do with him directly, and only Holiday tangentially related by being anti-war. In 2003 when they were writing it, there wasn't a mainstream "Fuck Bush" theme. Bush was still popular enough to win re-election in 2004. I don't like AI as a song either, but the rest of the album doesn't resemble the opening song in anyway.

we all know 5sos covered American idiot for kerrrang! there also putting it on their new single/EP link to the vinyl https://store.universalmusic.com/5sos/*/*/Amnesia-7-Vinyl/3G2J0000000?utm_campaign=5SOSAmnesiaEP-Vinyl&utm_content=5SOSAmnesiaEP-Vinyl&utm_medium=Referral&utm_source=ArtistWebsite

That's very true of earlier albums but I think the American Idiot ones are pretty accurate. Could be wrong but I don't know of any differences there like I do with a lot of the others. And even if it was "alien nation" that'd still clearly be intended to bring the word "alienation" to mind anyway, either way it's word play where two phrases that sound the same are being referred to so in this particular case it doesn't really matter which it is.

I don't really thing the lyrics in the cd booklets for Green Day albums are too accurate, I guess they are made from the lyrics that were written not the lyrics Billie sung. I honest don't know if Billie knows exactly what he sings half the time.

That is insulting and I demand him to be banned Tom I demand justice and swift justice at that

50/50. Either I retaliate or just leave. Really no way of knowing for sure.

austenrisolvato 11 months ago On October 8, 2005 for the second time I photographed Green Day. This shot of @BJ_UNOXX is far and away my favorite live music shot I have ever taken.

I think it's because the sound of the song sounds a lot more like Dos than Drama Queen does. That song would have been so out of place on Dos.

Yeah, if Dos has anything, it is cohesiveness. Or at least, more cohesiveness than Uno or Tre. It's still easily the equal shittiest album Greem Day has done, along with Uno. The best song on it is Lazy Bones, which is probably one of my all-time favourite Green Day songs.

Yes! Exactly. And it's wonderful.

It says alienation in the booklet. I think it's meant to be heard both ways though, so there's a double meaning where he's saying the US a nation where people feel alienated and also that it can be a weird, "alien" nation.

I have it. I'll PM you since it's a group picture.

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.
