Hermione Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I just saw a few brief clips of the AI musical, and I now know what the term "bursting into tears" means. I am so overwhelmingly proud of the guys, there are just no words. I feel the same, I was sitting there beaming with happiness for them. I'm smiling now just thinking about it, I can't even imagine how I'd feel if I'd actually gone to see it
Sunshine2385 Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 I hate being me. far too emotional for my own good. I'm the same
TaylorKlinke Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 Yeah, I get emotional over Green Day all the time. Well, latley it's really been bothering me that I didn't discover them before 2004...I mean damn, they started playing 17 years before that and made it real big in 1994. But being I wasn't even born until 1990 - I should give myself a little break. Haha. But I've been watching a lot of Green Day on youtube latley - and I wish I would have discovered them around the time of their Warning Tour, at least. I've been soo in love with Green Day since I was 14 years old and never thought I'd actually get the chance to meet them...........but what do ya know...5 years later I got to meet them and go to a concert!! But I'm really hoping I get to go to at least a couple/few more concerts....As many as I get the chance to go. Damn, it's so crazy to think that they've been a band my entire life. I also really hope the musical goes broadway and I get to the chance to make a trip over to NYC to see it! I'm so proud of our boys
fatherotti Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 oh yea I get emotional over Green Day....I mean one of the toughest experiences I've ever had was when I first heard "No One Knows"....It was like 3 years ago and my 1st serious relationship was on the rocks....everyday it would go downhill even more and I knew the end was right around the corner....while I was still trying to comprehend what was really going on No One Knows came on my playlist and I just choked up to the point where I couldnt take it anymore and just lost it..........finally when the relationship ended I was still in shock, so much shock that I had no emotion left anymore, it was like I was drained and I didnt know whether to cry cause it was over or to thank god all the pain was over....but they say you never realize what you've had until it gone......And then one night I just closed my door and listened to it on my ipod.........and I literally cried all night, It brought out the fact that no matter what I said and did she was really gone and it was over......In that moment I realized what I had and....what I lost
Jimmy the Kid Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 I Cried the first time i heard 21 Guns
heatherela Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 on my 20th my best friend's requested good riddance for me and we all danced to it in a nightclub. I was so happy to have all my friends there i cried.
Tiffx Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 I actually get emotional every time I see Good Riddance played live. That song carries so many memories, sometimes it's just overwhelming.
Maaary Posted September 22, 2009 Posted September 22, 2009 I get nostalgic when I listen to Basket Case. Yes I know, it may seem weird but here's the story. About 4 years ago I went to a summer camp and I started to hear a guitar somewhere (it was our first day) and found a boy playing Basket Case (there were more 3 or 4 camp kids around him) and no one was singing so I started to sing (I’ve always liked that song too). He didn't seem amused at all (I could see it in his face) but you know, that was one of the best times of my life and in the end of that summer camp, me and that boy said goodbye with a hug. So well, the song makes me remember those days, those people, and lots of good memories. And then, there are other things connected so.

I don't know... That song just drives me insane sometimes, o LOVE ITBasketcase is Just FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNY to play
newsflash777 Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Yes. yes. yes.Their music is the only thing that can make me cry, of both hapiness and sadness.I discovered Green Day from American Idiot, and it changed my life. That album shaped who I am today. So I can barely hear a song off of it without getting overwhelmed with nostalgia to the point where I just start crying. So seeing them live was honestly the craziest experience I have ever had.When the lights dimmed and song of the century played over the speakers, I started hyperventilating just knowing that Mike, Billie Joe, Tre and the Jason's were going to be coming out...And when they did, I LOST it I couldn't believe that they were real people! That I was in the same room as THEM! Finally I wasn't looking at them through a screen!They were right.there.it.front.of.me.And that's when I realized that they are not just a band, of which I enjoy their music, they truly are my foundation. Seeing them was almost like a relief, if that makes sense. I found a part of me that day, that I had previously lost.So yeah, I cried multiple times during that concert, but hey, it was my first one so I get a break That was the more life altering night of my life, and I'm already counting down the days until the next time I see them. <3
fatherotti Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 In General I get choked cause American Idiot was what got me started not just with Green Day but it got me to start listening to music in general...and I remember when I first brought my CD player on the bus and someone asked "what are you listening to?"and you know I was like "Green Day" and I began to talk to him about music!!! normally I was a loner and no one would talk me and vice versa, and from that moment I realized if it wasnt for that CD I wouldnt have talked to him.....and that immediately scared the living piss out of me.....I thought "this is it, this is what I was looking for" To be myself and to enjoy my music and not give a fuck about what people think....cause I like Green Day.....In 2004 they came out with the album and oldschool Green Day fans knew.....In 2005 Green Day got to us....
gdkickarse Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 I always get emotional over Green Day I saw the opening of a concert on youtube where the guy filming it was really close and yeah... I got all emotional over it.. And then the first time I heard Drama Queen on youtube...and WMUWSE and Good Riddance on Bullet In a Bilbe.... yeah the list goes on! It's only Green Day that does it to me though
Miss Hedgie Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 I didn't cry but I really felt emotional the first time I heard WMUWSE. And when I saw Billie during the BIAB bit with the Septemeber song. 21 Guns really got me too when I first heard it.Yes. yes. yes.Their music is the only thing that can make me cry, of both hapiness and sadness.I discovered Green Day from American Idiot, and it changed my life. That album shaped who I am today. So I can barely hear a song off of it without getting overwhelmed with nostalgia to the point where I just start crying.

brain_stew Posted October 6, 2009 Posted October 6, 2009 Green Day = most nostalgy-orgasm worthy band everso the answer is yeah, all the time. but it does take a certain mood, a certain song (and a certain few minutes of bullet in a bible ) to actually get the waterworks going. however, other kinds of emotional moments aren't unusual for me.just now when i was listening to Warning, i got a MAJOR flashback to the moment when i heard it for the first time. it was like time-travel!
The Daughter of Rage and Love Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Dookie makes me cry because of all the overwhelming nostalgia I feel. I also cried during the concert I went to. Especially during the older songs like "At the Library" and even "J.A.R" and "Going to Pasalacqua." Those tears were tears of joy, of course.
Savior of Rebellion Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Only all the time! sometimes during some of the stuff from the early 90's takes me back to another time where I feel that's where I belong but the new stuff gives me unbelievable thoughts as well
Green Day 13 Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 i dont really get crying emotional but i always get a wierd but good fealling in my stomach when i listen to their music. when ever i listen to American Idiot it brings back memories of when i was small and my dad would play it for my friend and me in his car. it was the first song (that i can remember) that i heard of theirs and its one of my favorites because of that. and my first concert was one of the best nights of my life and two days later i saw them again and it was even better than the first. we got great seats and we got the tickets after lunch the day of the concert. we had great seats. not floor but they were right next to the stage where BJ and Mike run up and interact. near the end of the concert i decided to look at Tre and he started making faces so naturally I made faces back. the cool part is that, one, he looked at me and that he was making faces (obviously in a good way) with me. two, that he was being so cool and calm about it and just knowing me as a fan and i was actually keeping my cool even though i though if something like that would ever happen to me that i would loose it and try to run on stage and attack him (in a good way) and that something like that even did happen to me. im sure if i actually got to meet them in person that i would die. which would kind of suck :/ but that would be the best thing to ever happen to me. i have that funny feeling in my stomach right now just thinking of it.Oh yea also BJ and Mike looked at me during that same concert! (made it even better! )
DistilledxSpirits Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 I almost burst into tears listening to Westbound Sign today.I was just thinking about the lyrics and what they meant... and for some reason it just got to me.I'm a sucker when it comes to any song about Adrienne.
HoneyDo666 Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 I teared up when Song of the Century started at the concert in Boston this July and cried tears of joy when they ran out!And then again when the concert ended because it was the best night of my life!I also get emotional during all of Billie's Adrienne songs because I'm mushy like that...I feel like Billie's emotion just hits me and makes me a marshmallow.
leacalifornia Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 ^^^aww... I know its a little cliche here but when I hear Good Riddance I always think of how they play that song at the end of a concert and how billie probably always truely hopes us fans had the time of our lives at their concert. its like hes saying"thank you so much for giving us this experience, I hope we gave you one too." and it always makes me well up inside a little.

Maddy.

It's from the making of the 21 Guns video. I've forgotten what he says. Something like hellooooo.
