jenn_aaaaay Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 I decided to go to tonight's taping even though I knew GD wouldn't be there... Towards the beginning, JK talked about the iheartradio incident and played the now infamous clip. Then he talked about BJ being in rehab and that's why they aren't appearing on the show tonight. Alanis Morissette did a cover of "Basket Case" which was actually really good. It was a slow version of it. Not sure if it'll make it on air, but maybe they'll post it online if it doesn't make it to T.V.

Hope we get to hear it at some point.
fatherotti Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 That Basket Case cover was beautiful. It almost brought me to tears. It made me miss Billie like crazy. Only a bit of it made air, the full performance can be found on Jimmy Kimmel.com.
Jock Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Alanis Morissette's acoustic cover of Basket Case for those who are interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwEa03wNbUA Apparently the full video will be on Jimmy Kimmel's website soon. Also ... hi guys ... first post here - I'm an Alanis stan but happen to be a big Green Day fan too. I think it was pretty awesome of her to cover this. EDIT: The full video is now posted above. Really sweet shout out at the very end.
gerardsangel4977 Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 ^Thanks for he video! That Basket Case cover was beautiful. It almost brought me to tears. It made me miss Billie like crazy. Only a bit of it made air, the full performance can be found on Jimmy Kimmel.com. Same here Fuck. Why do I feel like I just went to a wake?
Alan86 Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Nice tribute. And given the circumstances, an appropriate choice of song
Eponine Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Wow, that's a genuinely lovely reindition. I'm pleasantly surprised. Same here Fuck. Why do I feel like I just went to a wake? It does sound like exactly what they would play at his funeral.
CocaColaX Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 Wow, that's a genuinely lovely reindition. I'm pleasantly surprised. It does sound like exactly what they would play at his funeral. That was really sad sounding! Totally different, but totally appropriate at the same time. :sad:
Mozzabillie Posted September 26, 2012 Posted September 26, 2012 ^Thanks for he video! Same here Fuck. Why do I feel like I just went to a wake? I know what you mean! I have heard this song over and over again by Green Day. It was at one time my favorite song of all time. I just watched this and it really hit me hard. I never really thought of the meaning until I heard it in this slow acoustic version. I cried and cried during the whole time I watched it. I am still crying as I type this! I guess I have been holding back my emotions until now. PLEASE BILLIE JOE, PLEASE GET BETTER SOON!!! ...and now I'm suppose to go to sleep??? That's not going to happen.
