No One Knows and Android.

oh how i LOVE 'no one knows'. there's something about that song that always gets to me.

i still haven't figured out what it is.

I think all of kerplunk is underrated...

Yeah same.

And misery and pretty much all of Warning. I absolutely love that album and they have some pretty amazing songs.

Obvious underrated album is Warning but I would say Kerplunk too. That's more of a classic for me than Dookie is. For songs, I'd have to go with Words I Might've Ate, Paper Lanterns, Letterbomb, Stuart and the Ave, Android... and well pretty much anything of the first two albums except Welcome To Paradise and 2,000 Lightyears Away. Singles in my mind that don't get enough credit are Waiting, Nice Guys Finish Last, and Macy's Day Parade.

I think that warning is really underrated and tbh I love the whole album. Every single song is great.

totally agree with you :D

'though, dunno why... maybe because they were experimenting with the new sound... for example look at 'misery' and 'burnout' from dookie... anyway, one of my fav gd albums ^^

the way i see it is anything between Dookie and American Idiot (except Good Riddance) was underrated because thats when the style began to change according to most people, or in laments terms Green Day "Sold Out"....... god i hate people who say that,but its ok i always turn around and go "yea damn right they sold out, they've been selling out for 16 years" :thumbsup:

It's kind of obvious to say all of Warning, isn't it? Oh well, it's true. Misery, Church on Sunday...you know.

Then there's like, Rotting, Do Da Da, Stuck With Me, Prothstetic Head, J.A.R., Poprocks and Coke, Maria, (although the last three are pretty well known, right?), Worry Rock, Scattered (one of my FAVORITES), Sick of Me, Macy's Day Parade, Christie Road, Road to Acceptance, At the Library, Bab's Uvula Who?, Who Wrote Holden Caulfield, Why Do You Want Him, No One Knows, Paper Lanterns, The One I Want.........I could go on for ages. Overall, for such a massive band, they have endless songs that no one hears that they should.

I swear to God I've met people who think American Idiot was Green Day's first album.

wow same here, im like "hey do you want to see my GD collection?, i have all the albums"

and they're like "they have more albums?" :huh:

but thats cool because its just like Mike says in BIAB, a lot of people know Longview yet there is still people that are barely picking up the track and saying "what's this?"

GD WILL LIVE ON!!!!!

As almost all here Warning is the most underrated album IMO.

There are many good songs in there which are given very little credit, e.g. Castaway, Fashion Victim, Deadbeat Holiday(aahh the lyrics). Also some songs on Insomniac, like Westbound Sign, are also.

It's quite hard to pick, as almost only the singles get credit (+in AI:s case AwtW and St.Jimmy) so it's quite hard to pick, but most underrated singles have to be IMO Stuck with me and Macy's Day Parade.

I don't really understand how Know Your Enemy would be an underrated song :/

Everybody seems to hate it.

I like it a lot better now.

but I don't understand how that makes it "underrated"

...if anything, that should make it overrated...I think it is anyway :lol:

Whatsername is such a great end for American Idiot.

Posted

Warning, and any of the older stuff like 2000 Light Years Away, One for the Razorbacks, Christie Road, stuff like that.

Posted

Panic Song, Misery, Whatshername, Letterbomb, Sassafras Roots, 86, Haha You're Dead, Church On Sunday.

Because it's wonderful but everyone says it's their least favourite or that it's rubbish!

Posted

I think 'Coming Clean' from Dookie, I really like it but i've never seen it mentioned anywhere. And i agree about Whatsername - I love that song!!!

Posted

most of the songs on 'Warning' and some off of 'Nimrod' haven't got as much cred as they deserve

Posted

Misery. It was one of my favs for a while and no one else seemed to like it that much..i don't understand -_-

Posted

I think these songs are underrated : :/

One of my lies,Christie Road,King for a day,Prosthetic Head,Macy's Day Parade,At the Library,Paper Lanterns

Desperate, but not hopeless, I feel so useless in the Murder City
