this.

I remember I heard this on HBO and I went fucking nuts.

It always blows me away everytime I hear it.

[Just Kate]

i know all Green Day albums always end up with a big bang. this song may not be big bang, but there's something special about it that makes it even better... i absolutely love it

[Kayfabe]

The punch line is a natural disaster and it's sung by the unemployed

I like that line cause it portrays the state of our world as a show... kind of thing. Y'know?

EDIT: WRONG song. Doh

[MagdaJoy]

Well, i like this song, but is it just me or does the begining sound a bit like 21stCB ? .

[Just Kate]

Well, i like this song, but is it just me or does the begining sound a bit like 21stCB ? .

haha, well it is. it's almost the same sound except there's different tone or sth. but it fits great to the end of the record. it has as much power as Whatsername for example, but it's not that hard. just awesome

[Maddy.]

Same chords, just a bit faster.

I love this song. It's got ~power.

[Rosie May]

I always forget about this song when I'm not listening to it. I only ever actually play if I'm listening to the album as a whol;e. I like it, I can't really think of anything I don't like about it, but I dunno, it has to grow on you. the first time I heard iot I didn't like it at all and I thought it was a real anti-climax after 21 Guns. I think it is the only way to end the album but I dunno, it's sort of not epic anough to finsih the album, but at the same time I couldn't imagine anything else in it's place. (I'm fairly sure that made no sense at all) . I love the last lyric "and the ever after is in the hands of fate," I love that, I think lyrically, it's the perfect end to the album.

[colour_me_stupid_]

I fucking love the ending fade away riff...

This.

I always think along the lines of "Well there's the end of something fucking epic " when I listen to it!

[Just Kate]

haha, that's good. i always think of sunny streets of Netherlands...

[ChelseaWhatsername]

This is one of the songs that makes my mom speed up, driving to work.

It is a great song. It has a desperate edge to it, as well as a bit of hope that everything is gonna be OK. and you can hear it and sense it in the lyrics.

[petros]

Nice...but not one of my favourites

this!

[she's high voltage]

One of my favourites.

as much as i love 21 Guns, i think this would have made a better single, personally.

[Christina.]

I do love the beginning of the song. In a whole, I think it's a good song but not a great song.

[in_your_face]

well, in my opinion, it's a perfect song!! it's a good way of ending the record!!

[Wajd]

Theres just something about the song that i can't help but love, can't pinpoint what it is though!

I totally .. agree with you ..

[green-day1972]

This song is powerful I think !!

Same here. It's an alright song, it just doesn't do anything for me. Definitely the weakest song on the album in my opinion.

[groundpatty]

pretty cool tidbit - it is being used as the theme song for this year's NFL Hall of Fame Inductee ceremony. Its been playing whenever it goes in and out of commercial

anyways, my absolute favorite part of the song is right before the guitar solo, where billie and mike hold out the word "fights" and its just them singing. goosebumps.
