Green Day cover songs

There's an Australian band called Hoodoo Gurus that sounds a lot like FHT. It'd be boss to hear GD do one of their songs, maybe "Let's All Turn On."

HG's great live. Go if you ever get a chance. I just heard their guitarist's got cancer and they're postponing shows, though.

p.s. Hi, folks. Just joined after having caught 3 GD shows this month (Nashville, San Diego, L.A.)

Yeah! Or Billy the Kid. I love Billy Joel! I can't type his name though, I kept putting Billie Joe...goddam you, Green Day!

I live with a bunch of old folk so every time i say Billie Joe, they're all like Billy Joel?

:D

I'm way into the concept albums -- I'd want them to cover all of Abbey Road and all of Quadrophenia. Someone already mentioned this, but Billie on I am One -- sublime.

And just for fun, The Joker by the Steve Miller Band.

"Really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree." One of the best lyrics EVER!

EWW, no way... Sorry if you like them, but Green Day is just way too good for that.

Prisoner of Society, The Living End... or any other song by them seems realistic.

I would love to hear ,,Sexual Healing'' of Marvin Gaye covered by Green Day :D

:lol: Actually, I think a version of "Mercy Mercy Me" would be pretty cool.

Pet Semetary - The Ramones

personally I would kill for them to do "love game".

I just want to hear Billie Bust out "Let's have some fun this beat is sick, i wanna take a ride on your disco stick" :lol:

I was just thinking the same thing after reading the 'Lady Gaga licks Dookie' thread. :D Or Pokerface. I can just see him writhing around the stage in a Gaga-esque fashion to that one! Actually I think I'd pay good money to see it happen.

Here's two weird ones:

I want them to perform "Build Me Up Buttercup" and "Can't Take My Eyes Off You". This may be for purely selfish reasons, in that many of my all-time favorite artists have also performed these songs and I would love to have GD in my "collection". These aren't rock songs, but I think that the band could turn them into badass rock songs (or include them in the "Shout" interlude). So, I'd like to hear those as well. (Muse did a rock cover of "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", so I think Green Day could make an amazing one too!)

Yikes, under the same "all of my favorite artists perform this song" rationale, I would also have to include an ironic cover of "Womanizer"! :lol:

Can't Take My eyes off you would be great! :happy:

I Kissed a Girl - Katy Perry.
Thriller.
I'd like to hear them do "Barbie Girl" by Aqua. Billie could do they guys part and Tre could be Barbie, he'd get to dress in drag and everything, i bet he'd love it!

These. It would be epic.

I'd like to hear more Clash songs that I feel like listening...I almost got Guns of Brixton at the concert I was at...almost...or some Sex Pistols. I know they've done a part of Holiday in the Sun, and it sounded good to me. Green Day doing Ramones always seems to work well...I'd also like to hear Highway 101 by Social Distortion. I think they'd do a nice job on it.

They should do more 'covers' of the Network too... :shifty:

Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen would be intense. I would also like to hear Whisky in the Jar by Metallica, Smiling or Vulnerability by Operation Ivy, Midnight Mile by Bouncing Souls, or Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers.

On a fun note, Let's Get it On by Marvin Gay would be full of win. :happy:

that would be :D

I kind of want to see what they would do with Bullet with Butterfly Wings by the Smashing Pumpkins

also Train in Vain by the Clash would be fantastic

Oh and Build me up Buttercup, which i think was mentioned before

Posted

Uhmmm :D Wow. We'll I'd have to pick these:

Mommy's Little Monster - Social Disortion.

Red Tide - The Foxboro Hot Tubs.

Sunshinin' - The Vines

Anarchy in The U.K. - Sex Pistols

well probably not many of you will agree with me but i'd REALLY love to hear songs from my 2nd favorite band Simple Plan being covered by Green Day......for example : perfect,jump,untitled or i'd do anything........ <3

Bring on more Broadway renditions....that would be awesome :thumbsup:

Sorry I'm a nerd :ermm:

Smells Like Teen Spirit or anything by Blink-182. I think Tré could pull off "When you Fucked Grandpa".
