Longview

I'll never forget it :wink:

[whatsername0011]

the first song i ever heard was time of your life, then time of your life again.

then at like, December 31, 2004 this girl told me that Green Day was a good band and I was like, "who the hell is green day?" and yeah.

but when I was in F.Y.E. on April 24, 2005, i heard part of Boulevard of Broken Dreams cuz everyone at school kept talking about them, so i bought them.

but the first one I ever heard that made me a fan was American Idiot because it's the first song and yeah. Been my favorite band ever since.

I'm pretty sure it was basket case...then when i come around...good riddance...minority

What made me a die hard green day fan?

Their concert

[Ali]

Good Riddance.

My brother listened to Green Day when I was younger, but I never really knew who they were but then I heard Good Riddance years later and knew who they were.

I saw them in concer last year and I was blown away.

[Tight Wad Hill]

Mm..."American Idiot"...I'm not a teenie XD But the song that got me to love them was "Wake Me Up". But after I got the CD I kinda forgot about them, then this year I got friggin' OBSESSED.

Who says obsession is a bad thing? (Especially when it's Green Day)

Welcome to Paradise.. I saw the MTV clip when I was doing housework one Sat morning.. had to stop what I was doing and just sit and watch... Here were guys that could really PLAY music..and weren't about image, like other bands of the time..

I didn't actually own any of their music until AI (and made time for music in my life again with my ipod).

[mr.fender]

my first song from green day was american idiot, i saw it on mtv in 2004 at the first time.

[Punk-Princess(OdeSsa)]

I saw the video of "American idiot" 2 years ago, but I didn't turn my attention upon it. But when I saw BOBD some months later, I changed my opinion about Green day. But now,although,I like American idiot

[trecoolhugger]

[adzik1410]

I should say Holiday, BOBD or WMUWSE, but there are two pre-AI songs that tickled sth in my brain, and those would be 'Warning' & 'Misery'. Hearin' 'em (I must say again) some time ago, I was like this:
