I wonder if he ever met them

Wikipedia has changed the year Green Day was formed from 1986 to 1987.  

We've lost a year of Green Day, what do we do?!!!!!

And Billie Joe says he's been "around since 1988" so I'm really confused.   I'm pretty sure Billie Joe's been all the way around since the 70s

I don’t necessarily agree with these as being his most insightful lyrics, but I do like to see him getting recognition for his writing!

Warning is their strongest album in terms of lyrics.   It's a poetic, underrated masterpiece.  

Fight me, GDA! 

Of course, all their albums have some poetic depth.  I can think of some from Insomniac, Nimrod off the top of my head, and of course American Idiot.

Billie Joe Armstrong thought fans would hate this classic Green Day song

https://www.altpress.com/news/green-day-billie-joe-armstrong-good-riddance-fans/

In 1997, Green Day debuted their legendary album Nimrod. As a turning point for the band, the album remains one of the most popular amongst critics and fans. However, Billie Joe Armstrong has now revealed that he was nervous to release one particular song on that album.

In a new interview, Armstrong says he thought fans would hate their iconic acoustic ballad “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life).”

 

For many of us, “Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)” has been played at countless graduations and special events in our lives. Today, it stands as one of Green Day’s most popular tracks. The song, however, was particularly challenging for Armstrong.
