Emilie Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 In 21 Guns "Your faith walks on broken glass" I thought was "Your face was a looking glass" As in 'you're so easy to read, you are a terrible liar'. I kind of knew it wasn't that 'cause it has nothing to do with the song. Quote
Punk-tastic32 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Don't want a nation under the new media It's going out to idiot America Wait, those are wrong? That's how I sing them now. I only just realized it wasn't 'Idiot nation' when I got the cast CD Quote
EvanAsFuck Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Don't want a nation under the new media I'm pretty sure that part's right? Unless I have the lyrics wrong! Quote
Little Girl Little One Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 I'm pretty sure that part's right? Unless I have the lyrics wrong! Wait, those are wrong? That's how I sing them now. I only just realized it wasn't 'Idiot nation' when I got the cast CD Yeah, apparently it's "mania" and "calling out." And I was so sure of those two. Quote
Pres Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Don't want a nation under the new media I think thats the right lyric Edit: never mind i just checked the american idiot lyric book it's Dont want a nation under the new mania i like media better Double Edit: I was a bit late with that Quote
Little Girl Little One Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 I think thats the right lyric Edit: never mind i just checked the american idiot lyric book it's Dont want a nation under the new mania i like media better Double Edit: I was a bit late with that I actually still sing media, or rather something between the two. I think it comes out like "madia." Quote
Punk-tastic32 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Yeah, apparently it's "mania" and "calling out." And I was so sure of those two. Oh wow. I'm gonna have to listen to it like 20 times now. Quote
solongfromthestars Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 i just checked the american idiot lyric book it's Dont want a nation under the new mania i like media better Oh wow really? I was so convinced that "media" was the right lyric! I like media better too Quote
SuperRebReb Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 (edited) In Static Age, I used to think the chorus was: 'Enserio, in the static age' In a local dialect we have here, 'Enserio' means 'I'm being seriously' or 'Are you being serious?'. That fucked up the song. XD I thought Billie had suddenly started to talk in llanito. Until I checked the lyric booklet. Edited January 30, 2011 by SuperRebReb Quote
jake smith Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 this one is not a major one but it still counts dammit! in homecoming i used to think it was " here they come marching down the street, like a desperation murmur of our feet" i think thats an easy one to get wrong Quote

newsflash777 Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I thought that "I can't even sleep, from the light's early dawn" in 21CB was "I can't even see, from the light to lead on." Quote

OverjoyedAndroid Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 In East Jesus Nowhere, I used to think it was: A fire burns today Of blass baby and asd;fkjasd;IDE is blass even a word? Quote

BILLIE ENUNCIATE In East Jesus Nowhere, I used to think it was: A fire burns today Of blass baby and asd;fkjasd;IDE is blass even a word? Naw, I don't think so I thought it was "I do my crunches in the river of a shadow of doubt" But no. Quote

Hermione Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I just went on this lyric sight and it says "from the rainstorms 'till dawn" ? BILLIE ENUNCIATE Nah, in the demo version of the song it is "from rainstorms til dawn". He changed it to "from the light's early dawn" on the album. I prefer the demo lyric Quote

SuperRebReb Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I never knew half of St. jimmy. Most of it was 'kjghjewbjcgscwekg' to me. :/ Quote
Libby :) Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 My first favourite Green Day song was Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and I remember a year ago I was learning the lyrics (only took a few tries, but still :L). I sang the lyrics 'Don't know where it goes, but it's only me and I walk alone' until my friend told me it was 'but it's home to me' Oops :L Quote

I'm glad my dumb mistake amused you. haha, homecoming left me here alone and i should have stayed home after 10 cups of of coffee and bacon :lol: I think everyone made that mistake initially, myself included. 1 Quote
Gwen Stacy Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I have been a Green Day fan for years And this snuck up on me yesterday when I was playing GD:RB Basket Case I thought it was: Do you have the time to listen to me whine? About nothing and everything, all I want? GD:RB says it's About nothing and everything all at once? Is that really it? If so, I've been saying it wrong for years. Quote
