Hermione Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Time for another round of our contest to find the (second) best Green Day song ever. Last week Walking Contradiction triumphed with an impressive 64 votes (and well done to Stuck With Me in second place with 41 votes and Stuart And The Ave. in third with 39). This week we're voting for the songs on Nimrod. There's lots to choose from so get listening and pick your favourite!
Sarcasm Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Wohoo! Looks like Walking alone is the winner :3 Definitely my favorite song of Nimrod. Catchy, good lyrics I can relate to and Billie rocking the harmonica + the easter egg in the end where Mike says it sounds like a one-take :3
It's Splash Time Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 That was a tough vote. Ended up having to go for Uptight because I don't think it's played enough. Nimrod is probably my favourite album.
Hermione Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 Redundant is my third or fourth favourite Green Day song of all time. Go Redundant! However Nimrod is my joint favourite Green Day album so I love it all and will be happy whichever song wins
Katarina. Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Nimrod is my favorite Green Day record most of the time, well, my joint favorite actually. Everything about it is amazing. So I don't really care which song wins this round. Nimrod wins! As for my favorite song on this record.. I love Redundant. And Good Riddance. And especially the music of Haushinka. Hmmm.. I'll vote for my current favorite right now: Redundant.
It's Splash Time Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Redundant is my third or fourth favourite Green Day song of all time. Go Redundant! However Nimrod is my joint favourite Green Day album so I love it all and will be happy whichever song wins Y'know, I actually forgot about redundant. But then I was considering between King for a Day, Uptight, Nice Guys Finish Last, the Grouch, Prosthetic Head, Hitchin' A Ride... Dammit why is Nimrod such a good album
Togle40 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Platypus rules but all the other songs are great too
longlostson Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 so now we reach nimrod. this is going to be very tough. im gonna have to go for king for a day, because you havent lived until you see them play that song live. but this is still one of my top green day albums. sugar, spice, and king for a day ftw
CHR1597 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Definitely the hardest choice yet. Eventually I went with Haushinka, though. I don't know, I just really like it
DoodleBob Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 My baby is winning! Scattered. Unfortunately, I know it's not going to stay that way...
gmcloughlin Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Easiest one for me so far! Hitchin' A Ride all the way Good Riddance prob comes 2nd, followed by Prosthetic Head imo
GreenRanger Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 In recent years, Scattered has risen up the ranks to become one of my favorite Green Day songs of all time. That chord progression is killer and the lyrics are something I can relate to twenty times over. How this was never a single is beyond me.
Hermione Posted February 20, 2012 Author Posted February 20, 2012 My baby is winning! Scattered. Unfortunately, I know it's not going to stay that way... I dunno about that, my bet is definitely on Scattered to win. Hopefully Redundant will manage to beat it though
ScatteredPictures Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Hopefully Redundant will manage to beat it though Yes, Redundant is wonderful
DoodleBob Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I dunno about that, my bet is definitely on Scattered to win. Hopefully Redundant will manage to beat it though Really? For some reason I have a feeling a more hardcore song will win, but I guess we'll just have to wait and see. After all, all of the songs I've voted for have won so far, and I certainly wasn't expecting that! Actually, Redundant would've been by second choice. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a battle between the two!
raven052 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 This one is crazy difficult! Gonna need some serious consideration...
Gwen Stacy Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 too... many... good... songs too choose... HAUSHINKA! It's like picking favorite children
Guest Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 This is my favorite GD album hands down, and it also has two of my top three all time favorite GD songs on it. Scattered got my vote.
The Grohl Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 I can't believe I'm the only one who voted for Prothestic Head. I absolutely love that song. It was a tough choice between The Grouch and that song. They're both so good!
GuitarPunk94 Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 best song nimrod..can it a different song than Good Riddance?
Heather. Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Nimrod is probably one of my least favorite Green Day albums. This has been one of the hardest choices because I'm kind of ignoring Good Riddance even though, if I'm being honest with myself, that one stuck with me since I heard it as a little kid, so obviously it is one of their most amazing songs for its ability to resonate with EVERYONE. Voted for Scattered though. Wouldn't mind if Redundant one. I also have a soft spot for The Grouch, Jinx, Worry Rock and Walking Alone. Maybe I should reassess Nimrod as my least favorite album, then! This album just has too many songs. They need to play more of them live.
