I'd always liked Good Riddance, but didn't get hooked on GD. Then I saw Live 8 and they were performing Minority in Berlin. Instantly I was into them and went out and bought Nimrod, Shenanigans and Dookie. Loved them ever since. :)

my parents never liked them. my friends didnt know them

I found them on my own

Ha ha, all the 'hardcore' fans'll love that. :P

My friend just said to me in school one day 'Have you heard that new song 'American Idiot' by a band called Green Day. I think words were along the lines of 'No...Green Day, what kind of stupid name is that?', But then I heard the song, the video made me laugh, bought Dookie and AI a while later....and well..you know..

tv, and my friend katie because she got me a copy of AI.

well, I always used to hear songs liek Longview, Basket Case, Minority, and Time of Your Life on the radio and I never knew that it was Green Day until they put American idiot out and I really loved that song. So the seconds Green Day cd i bought was International Superhits and i knew like all the songs on there.

I cant awnswer what or who, unless Im talking about myself. It was specific point in my life, dealing with a slight depression, or the 'rage and love', I so found to relate to going on in my life. Of cource as the told story goes I became a fan after focusing my attention and toughts on longview, hence longview timer.

I went out and baltantly bought Dookie without having the slightest interest in the band itself, only a catchy riff, and interesting lyrics Ive dreamed about the day before. It wasnt really untill the day I opened up the bookelt, turned up my stereo to 10, and listened to the beloved grup for what their worth. The dark, almost gothic lyrics caught my heart immediately, And I knew then, it would never let go - all with good, catcy punk perfection disquising its eloquence. Thats when I knew right there, that a band like Green Day, words spoken from that mans heart would be with me forever.

Myself. I got into Green Day, when I saw the Holiday video

Posted

I started listening to them cause I wanted to have something in common with the guy I liked haha.

pshh I was like...12.

but yeah, they ended up becoming one of my favorite bands.

I heard American Idiot on the radio and decided "Hey, thats cool..." I still did nothing though. After hearing another bloddy good hit song (Boulevard) I decided to go searching for their songs online (to listen to them).

I used google, and found http://www.bandbuilder.com/greenday except now Warner has brought that link, as that had their entire CD available online (Streamed).

I then asked my mother to buy me the American Idiot CD for my birthday... Listened to them for a few weeks... CD found the back of the cupboard...

No idea what happened, but now since got the Bullet in a bible CD, I listen to them daily, no excuse for not listening to them. Had my MP3 player taken off me over 10 times for listening to them in class.

Naughty Smithy XD

EDIT: Hey, I'm an american idiot now :o

Posted

American Idiot. loved the song, did my homework on GD, and now i love the band. end of story.

Posted

My dad has the album Nimrod, so i just started to listen to it and since then i've been obsessed! :D
