ICWUDT, J'net.

Redundant is a great song. It's beautiful. And I love the music video, as well.

[Freeny]

I love the lyrics to this song, but I just never really got into the song. Dunno why, maybe I'll "discover" it sometime.

Btw I loved the redundant-ness in the first post hhahahah XD

[Abbey.]

I love this video of it from The 10 Spot:

[green_melly]

that song is probably in my top 3 of favorite Green Day songs

[Juliette]

First time I've seen the video though. It's clever.

[Bastard of 1967]

Thats my fave version too!

Damn that's a nice one. Billie and Mike acoustic without Tre this time...you don't get that combo very often and it's a real treat to hear.

[Mari91]

The woman screaming at the end is the *perfect* way to cap off the video IMO. The song is all about the inevitable repetition and monotony that eventually creeps into any long-term relationship and asks how that can be broken. The video layers more and more elements on top of a repeating pattern as it goes along, until Billie gets sick of it, picks up the newspaper and walks off with it as his metaphor for breaking that pattern, and the woman is left on her own -- she can't deal with the sudden change-up in routine and she just lets loose. Love it, love it, love it. Or was I just being redundant there?

the screaming is just ear piercing

but it definitely makes sense in the video

Thats my fave version too!

great song.

[ANJI]

Love the song, the words and the guitar solo!!

[Agija]

I love this song and the video. It's amazing, and I can really watch it over and over and over again. Even my mum likes it, even though she's not a big Green Day fan.

[SpiffyGiffy]

Basically, to say I love Redundant is not enough, so one could depict that as to mean that I am, to use a phrase: "lost for words"

Lame, no?

Great song though

[davegrohllover]

I love this song and the video

[cmrnmrphy]

AHH THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG THIS WEEK

[Clayish]

One of the best from Nimrod, my least favorite album.

Great lyrics, and awesome chorus.

[spark in the night]

[Mar]

Thats my fave version too!

That is pretty cool!

[BuriedInAHole]

This song fits perfectly to my life..

[Supermodel*Robot]

AH, I'm dumb and thought your computer had messed up.

This song actually taught me the definition of redundant. I used it awhile ago & this guy was like "huh?" & I was like DUDE LISTEN TO GREEN DAY. THEY ENHANCE VOCABULARY.

I really like the feel of this song. It describes perfectly how I feel about life & the meaningless redundant things I have to do everyday.

[1000SlappyHours]

Love this song. And it's not a song i play often so i've never gotten sick of it (unlike the rest of Nimrod).

[cherylr]

Love the song. Love the instrumentation. Love the lyrics - they perfectly capture what it's like to be in a marriage. "Went full circle 'til I'm nauseous." I that line. BJA does a lot of plays on cliches in his lyrics and I always think they're funny.

[Guest Hayley]

What a nice song.
