Sarahnade. Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 My favorite videos were Holiday, NGFL, and Basket Case, but this one takes the cake for me.
Tiffx Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I love the American Idiot video so much. It's still my favourite, it just has so much freakin energy. 21CB is up there though lol. I just have a soft spot for the AI video.
Sarahnade. Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 ^Yeah, AI is pretty amazing. I love the slow motion, then fast motion changes.

brokenlovesong Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 ....and that child is a member of the "class of 13". It all makes so much sense now. Christian and Gloria were either a part of (or, I think more accurately) were abandoned by the Bastards of 1969, the original Woodstock-era generation that promised that they'd make everything all better by the turn of the 21st century, once they got into power.... and instead they made it worse. Now C&G have had a child of their own, who gets dumped out into a chaotic world that's fallen apart. The Bastards have missed their self-imposed "20th Century Deadline", and all they can say is "sorry kid, we fucked it all up, now it's your turn" -- they've "been to the edge and thrown the bouquet/of flowers left over the grave". The political system has fallen apart, and we're left to watch the hypocritical politicians slugfest it out when they're really in bed with each other...and all we can do is sit in "the waiting room wasting our time/waiting for Judgment Day."*SHIVER*you just gave me goosebimps of the year with that comment.. that was like you've been crawling insidemy head, and put words on how I saw the video..Jesus, creepy..but I love this video. It says so much. I can't even find the words, cause I'm not sure that they would justify it.I wont go and say it's my favorite, cause I love all of their vids, and I can't really compare them, cause they've all got their own geniality, but this one.. whoosh.. it swapped me off my feet..*lost for words*
Sarahnade. Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 The video is so breathtaking. It just blows me away every time.
sapphired Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 It took some getting used to, for me. But now i think it is just brilliant!
Mari91 Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 american idiot previously held the position of my favorite green day video, along with nice guys finnish last and walking contradiction.this could well be a contender.you just named all my favorite videos!it is??? when i click on the link, it tell me it's not available in this country...i'm in CT, i was able to watch it for a day or so, now it's telling me unavailable :/ do you know the link where i can find it again?really? i can see itumm i think its on youtube.
farley drexel hatcher Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 It's probably been said already but on the video that shows on Scuzz there's a bit of a difference - a spinning coin with Billie's head on it
Bastard of 1967 Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 you just gave me goosebimps of the year with that comment.. that was like you've been crawling insidemy head, and put words on how I saw the video..Jesus, creepy..but I love this video.

Amazing how this video feeds back on the song and clarifies some parts of it....I don't know whether it's intentional and can only guess at how faithful it is to Billie's intent behind it, but as far as I'm concerned the vid just simply nails it. The world viewed through Billie's eyes is an interesting place, yes?
tvrman Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 It's probably been said already but on the video that shows on Scuzz there's a bit of a difference - a spinning coin with Billie's head on itYep, and Kerrang are showing it as well. Prefer the silhouette myself.tvrmanBummer of the week: my next door neighbour works at the BBC.

The world viewed through Billie's eyes is an interesting place, yes?Yeah, and it's kinda scary to know how much it clearifies the world. (I'm not sure that it's the right word in English). How much it shows the worlds true face, without the masking and hiding, and covering-up..I get so sick of all that, and that's one of the reasons I love Green Day.. their view of the world is just the way mine is, and whenever I hear a lyric, or see a video, it just puts everything I'm thinking and feeling into words and pictures..(and now it sounded like I tried promoting myself as a kinda "GD-soulmate", but that was not at all the intention, I just have no other idea of how to put it. hope you wont hold it against me..)
Jacob. Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 They added a page for this song on Wikipedia Here
Mar Posted October 27, 2009 Posted October 27, 2009 They added a page for this song on Wikipedia HereCool! But I wish I wouldn't have clicked on that link seeing as how Wikipedia is like a Pandora's Box of wasting time for me
