Stuck With Me, Longview and Geek Stink Breath were all released as singles - otherwise great list!

I know, but somehow here in Italy they hardly ever play them so I've never heard them in the radio >.<

[green day is]

Awesome list. I had completely forgotten about Chump.

So, I see that many people are listing Blood, Sex and Booze (out of Warning). It was also my understanding that this song was never released as a single. However, some googling led me to a website that says that it was released as a promo single in Germany. This is the website: http://www.greendayd...exandbooze.html

Can anyone confirm that this single is real? From the snapshots, it looks like it is. too bad because this song would rank high in the list if it wasn't a single.

Yes, it's real.

You have to take "Longview" off the list too. It was a huge radio hit in the 90s. I think "Going to Pasalaqua" was also on the radio a lot.

My updated list:

1. Blood, Sex & Booze

2. Castaway

3. Brat (not sure if this was on the radio, but love the song)

4. At the Library

5. Don't Leave Me

6. Road to Acceptance

7. All By Myself

8. One for the Razorback

9. King For a Day

10. The Grouch

[bjrules]

So hard to choose but:

1. Who Wrote Holden Caulfield?

2. Letterbomb

3. Whatsername

4. Paper Lanterns

5. Misery

6. Having A Blast

7. Christie Road

8. 2,000 Light Years Away

9. Westbound Sign

10. Stuart and the Ave.

[Bam-Itz-GreenDay]

I'd say...

1. Coming Clean

2. Paper Lanterns

3. Scattered

4. King For A Day

5. Castaway

6. Stuart and the Ave

7. Are We The Waiting/ St. Jimmy

8. American Eulogy

9. Christie Road

10. Whatsername

That is exactly what i would choose. Perfect list

[Disapperingirl]

Thanks I picked up the most influential songs (to me) from every album, great that you would choose the same :good:

[Brigister]

I just told someone else that I've never heard it in the radio... so I put it in. Plus, not only those two songs were radio hits. I'm gonna rewrite my list, then. But the thread title should've been "Top 10 Green Day songs that have never been played in the radio", so.

1. Stuart and the Ave

2. Reject

3. The Judge's Daughter

4. Christie Road

5. All The Time

6. Whatsername

7. Paper Lanterns

8. Deadbeat Holiday

9. One Of My Lies

10. 86

[JDookie]

To be honest, I don't think that most of italian radios knows that other albums besides American Idiot and 21st Century Breakdown exist and there are other songs besides Basket Case off Dookie so I'd say stuff like Minority, Stuck With Me etc, but I have to exclude singles, so...

1. Letter Bomb

2. ¡Viva la Gloria! (my favorite 21st Century Breakdown song... It should be a single in my opinion!)

3. Westbound Sign

4. Blood, Sex & Booze

5. Reject

6. 2000 Light Years Away

7. Christie Road

8. Who Wrote Holden Caulfield?

9. Burnout

10. King For a Day

(Not in order of importance)

Honestly, most of their songs could have been singles. I'm on my ipod right now so I'll come back to finish the list

[Brigister]

1) Whatsername

2) Burnout

3) Stuart and the Ave.

4) Uptight

5) Castaway (blows my mind how it wasn't a single. Such a great song)

6) The Static Age

7) Murder City

8) St. Jimmy

9) King for a Day

10) Last Night on Earth

I love how your number 8 became the smiley face with sunglasses xD

[Berkeley]

Oh, well, that's very difficult just to pick up 10 songs when you've got a whole bunch of forking great non-single songs... I just take the songs I played the most on my iPod, so that's what iTunes says:

1. Give Me Novacaine

2. Whatsername

3. Murder City

4. Before The Lobotomy

5. The Static Age

6. Letterbomb

7. American Eulogy

8. Extraordinary Girl

9. Last Night On Earth

10. ¡Viva La Gloria!

Well, this isn't even what I would have written from memory though, but that's simply too difficult. Also, I can't place older stuff...

The amount of love for Blood Sex And Booze in this thread warms my heart

I'm telling you, it's one of my favorite GD songs. Makes me laugh every single time I hear it, especially the beginning when you hear the sound of the whip lashing against flesh and the guy says "Ah shit!." I laugh out loud every time. And then the music itself is fun and upbeat, all about absolute self-indulgence. But then it seems to me to have an even deeper meaning, in that it's also about not just acceptance of one's "flaws," but a reveling in it.

It inspired my absolute favorite character I've written so far, so it will always hold a special place in my heart.

What a great summary of the song! It's so true that there's two levels to it, the fun and the deeper meaning. I love it when Green Day are unashamedly quirky and weird , and it's just the perfect example of it. So cool that it inspired you like that.

[melissawebster]

So many of Green Day's songs inspire me in some way like that. They've quickly become my all-time favorite band, over U2, something I didn't think was even possible. And I love analyzing it, like poetry. You can tell their music is truly a reflection of them and what they're going through in the moment.

That is the best when Green Day are unashamedly quirky and weird. That is part of what makes them fun. It is that quirkiness and weirdness that makes blood sex and booze and dominated love slave two of my favourite songs.

^Yeah, they can never be accused of conformity.
