J'net Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Billie's words about Peacemaker:“It’s a song about how someone can be so vengeful that it’s almost sexually driven.”... and in Mike's words:“It’s also got a kinda cool Gypsy carnival feel.”I personally love this song. What do you think about it?
rage-love-life Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I love this song too, it really stood out for me the first time I heard it.
SlappyDJ1 Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 It sounds vry mexican to me. good song. I like the way it sounds so mexican.
Nova-Caine Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Love it, then again I think I love all the album. This song is so different from anything else on there but at the same time just fits right in. The Guitar is awesome.
.Brian Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 It sounds vry mexican to me. good song. I like the way it sounds so mexican.yeah indeed.
Princess Consuela Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 When I heard 30 seconds of it on YouTube I already knew this would be one of my favourites. I think it's a great evidence of GD's versatility.The last part starting with 'Well, now the caretaker's undertaker (...)' is my favourite. It was very challenging for me to keep up with singing along to it But practice makes perfect

It's a variation in the way the other verses are sung that adds to the interest of the verse.
farley drexel hatcher Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Love the bit about 'go and get the Peacemaker'. I think I just love the humour there, calling a gun a peacemaker is classic Billie Joe song writing. I love this song xD
Bassgirl_1984 Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Ya I love how sarcasm just drips from this song! It's awesome...I love the spanishy like feel to it to...groovy tune. One of my favourites.
Farah Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 love it!i didn't think i was going to like it much when i heard a bit of it live on youtube.. but no, now i absolutley love itand at the end when he does the voice he does i didn't used to like it, now it's like.. normal, like i like it xD
Ila Reto Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 its a great song, i love how they keep a theme going throughout the track. there's not much i can say about it but i've been singing it constantly!
Ally Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I LOVE that part of the song, too. It's a variation in the way the other verses are sung that adds to the interest of the verse.also my fave part!! I used to sing this constantly to my friend, now she sings it to me, we both love it so much!
Soo Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Really love this song, it's definitely a contender for being my favourite! My favourite bit of the song is "I drink from a well of rage" Don't know why, but I love the image that it conjures up! In fact, I might have to listen to it right now!
spark in the night Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 LOVELOVELOVELOVELOVELOVELOVELOVELOVEthis song
greendaytone Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 "Well death to the ones at the end of the se-rrrr--naaaadddeee!"Love that.
Isabel Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I have the highest hopes to learn this on the guitar...so far I can play four fingers of the chord. Class.This is definitely my favourite song on the album and it's amazing to sing along to. I love the first lines of each verse the most, because it just keeps paving the way for the amazing guitar strumming, like it's following his voice along...and it just sounds better every time!!
Fuzz Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I just realized today when he says "Shots ringing out on a holy parasite", that they usually call communion (when you go up and get the little wafer thingy from the priest) the host. Host and Parasite (In science (for those you that might not have passed) the host is considered the thing the parasite lives off of, like a flea on a dog). Nice little switcharoo. My interpretation of that individual phrase (with a context of the rest of the album, specifically EJN) is that instead religion being the host, the thing that people are supposed to look to for strength, religion is playing the role of the parasite, feeding off all the people. Obviously I could be completely wrong, but I heard those two words today and it kinda hit me.
Clayish Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 One of the best on the album.Really owns people who say that green day play the same song over and over.
Spider Tre Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 i love it. it's actually my favorite all time atm
theeulogy Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 Hey hey hey hey heyIt's one of my favoritesIt's Hitchin' A Ride,Minority and Misery all together for me)
Haydée Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I love the entire song.Really fun I don't get tired of it. and I kinda dance a little at "Vendetta, sweet vendetta (..)"
music_that_is Posted June 14, 2009 Posted June 14, 2009 I like the way it sounds so mexican.Me too!I love the idea of calling a gun a "peacemaker".And I love the way he sings that last part; "at the end of the SerRrRrRenade" So sexy!
