*iHeart Radio Flashbacks*

Am I the only one who thinks this sounds nothing like him?

LOL You're trolling, right? It sounds TERRIBLE. Also the voice is pronouncing words like Billie is somehow related to Moira Rose. 😄 Blonde hair means still working on the album. #facts

It is and he even posted! https://instagram.com/stories/billiejoearmstrong/3119643846438215437?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Just visiting and back home again judging by the pics at the football.

Love Billie's new profile pic. I'm pretty sure it's new

Omg, a cover of "Welcome to the Black Parade" is going to be on the new album???!!?? Rob Cavallo is just recycling things from other bands at this point, huh?

I think blonde hair used to mean that. Now it means, I look better with the blonde than with the grey

I hear hints of him but mostly sounds like a drunk, non-English speaking guy who is learning English.

new mike dirnt picture somethingllama 🎶🎸😎Epic night giving back to our school district. @mikedirnt was pretty awesome 🤘🏽

I don't know what's scarier - that AI has already evolved this far, or that some people don't know how far AI has evolved and think things like this are real, and even refuse to believe that it's AI after being told so.

Had a momentary lapse of excitement, GDFan would be proud

Right the straight up refusal to believe its ai like no one knows what's going on right now technology and music and it literally sounds like a computer singing it . The fact that it's a song/ album that was up for a Grammy against American idiot and people here acting like it's an unheard track and bringing up panicland and arguing that it could In fact be true is this same stop the steal mentality and now this thread is dead.see ya in the downloads section where it's sane.

I think that sounds like an impersonation of Billie, not for one second did I think it was really him.

nice try

https://twitter.com/M1KEY_GDA/status/1666538209726320640?s=20 How did I not see this at first??

No, has hints of him but not very close.

Sounds like a computer generated Billie with a bad accent.

Imagine if the new album sounds like this. I think it is beautiful

I mean, sound consists of waves. And synthesizers can imitate many instruments very closely by just recreating the frequencies of these waves. So it's not that scary that you can do the same with voices of famous singers.

Does he really live there or still just visiting? I don't want to sound like a creep. Just curious

We've got enough to piece together a full album with all the Stand alone singles, leaks, and AI stuff. But with so many covers, I think we're about to get Some Fun in the Sun Tuesdays. Beach Boys, Dreaming, Black Parade. And of course, the rest will be ICP covers. Hearing that Longshot and other projects were rejected Green Day albums makes me sad. Maybe it's normal, but it gives me the impression things aren't good between the band. Maybe Billie and possibly all three of them should do real solo albums. And on those, they can be completely free and weird or free and honest. I dunno, maybe Green Day Inc. Is still weird and honest. Unclear.

Ah, thought I’d gone to start of this chat. Missed that, sorry.

This is absolutely hilarious The AI fumbles some words the same way it draws six fingers on a hand but at the same time, Billie absolutely does pronounce random words weird but not THIS WEIRD

There are a ton of these AI-generated covers circulating on YouTube. Just to name a few: Billie Joe - As It Was By Harry Styles https://youtu.be/J0ui5PO-oYM Paul McCartney - 21 Guns https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lghdxX-yW3o Billie Joe - Island In The Sun by Weezer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oV76_7jHGRs Kurt Cobain - Basket Case https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LD_gFN3Z5kY Chester Bennington - Wake Me Up When September Ends https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fgG_DsLdIPA

Or at least iTunes exclusive covers

That song would have needed to be on 21st CB, but I'd have loved it!

Sorry I'm not good at this stuff

1972 is speculation about a new Green Day Album. AI is an existing Green Day Album from 2004 😆

Not sure to understand the link between an AI and the 1972 thread?

Sounded more like Panicland to me.

AI Billie sounds drunk

This is what you can do using out of the box open source software. You can get something close to that even with discord chat bots that require 0 technical knowledge or skills. What you can actually achieve with AI and a little bit of experience with generative AI is far beyond this and evolving every day. And if you don’t have that knowledge you can just ask ChatGPT to provide you a step by step guide on how to do it and you are settled.

of course i know it mcr

Do you know of the Panicland kerfuffle? And yeah AI is a thing. Plus that is obviously Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR

It was actually created by this channel. There are other Green Day covers made with AI https://youtube.com/@diegopereze98

All I can say is if you think that is Billie singing the Black Parade, then that is how good AI has become. I chose Freddy and Smells Like Teen Spirit as a more extreme variation of vocal styles. I don't even know if that has been tried...... yet.

what? is this really AI? This is billie joe's voice. I refuse to believe technology has gone this far

Is this legit?

👀 https://voca.ro/13QZn30PgNwL Sounds like AI

This thread is dead as our hopes on any release for this year.

That Dude is serious in every post he make.

Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo

It’s 2072. BJA, now a hundred years old, logs into GDC. He scrolls through the threads - the 1972 anticipation thread now has over 30,000 pages, generations of fans have lived and died posting wilder and wilder guesses. GreenDayFan is still optimistic and expects the album to drop any day now. Little Boy Named Train is still the king of the Cocktail Thread, except now he’s a grandfather. The Fangirl Thread is still going strong too. BJA smiles and his decrepit hand keeps scrolling. He’s almost hopeful but, alas, his mortal enemy is still around. Beerjeezus. With his heretic username and crappy shitposts. BJA refuses to release the new album for as long as his worst fan stays around. He’s been waiting with the only copy of album 14 hidden under his bed since 2021 and he’s not going to give up now. At this point, it’s keeping him alive.
