In @That Dude‘s defence (we have had this discussion for a while now) he’s not saying it’s bad, it’s his least favourite.  Fair enough I think.  I think it’s awesome but think Amy is just bad. We all have our opinions.😁

personally, i dont get the hype behind LOTAG and LNOE

haushinka as worst song over Father Of All Demoes or Here Comes the Shock is crazzzyyyyy

I don't really think of demos when thinking of the worst and Here Comes the Shock is definitely a contender for worst Green Day song.    If we included EVERYTHING....., Studio Banter or Shit Show or....Tre Polka.   

Other contenders would be Little Boy Named Train Demo.   Walking the Dog.   Stab You in the Heart.  That's bottom tier Green Day for sure.

I love the Trilogy, but can definitely see some weak spots in it.    Carpe Diem and Little Boy Named Train are half baked.   And Dos?  Even if it was a Tubbies album, it feels a little thrown together.   Wild One, Make Out Party, Lady Cobra and Wow That's Loud need more work.

Oh, we're playing the least favorite song game? 

The Forgotten (appropriately enough, is the only Green Day song I completely forgot existed during my time away 😅)

Little Boy Named Train

Sex Drugs and Violence (how are all of these songs in the same album as Brutal Love?) 

Amy

Unpopular opinion: Restless Heart Syndrome (it makes my blood boil every time someone compares it to Novacaine)

I like Haushinka but I hate Father to a Son and I'm not a fan of Here Comes the Shart either.

At one of the recent shows someone asked me 'if you had to erase Jesus of Suburbia or Nightlife forever, which would it be?' And I actually hesitated :ga: 

Obviously, Jesus of Suburbia is objectively much better, but listening to it is like a full experience whereas Nightlife is just fun so I'm more likely to listen to it. I would keep Jesus of Suburbia but I'd be sad to erase Nightlife.

However! If it was between Jesus of Suburbia and American Eulogy or Forever Now, I would chuck Jesus in the bin.

We should have a 'which song would you erase?' thread.

I'm also not a fan of Father to a Son (nor Suzie, sorry!)

I also don't get the hype for these. I don't dislike them, I'm just not a huge fan

On vacation in NY, so of course I had to have this on my list-

Also, I always wondered if this was the Jane St. Billie was referring to in Sweet 16, since he was writing here a lot when in the musical.

Looking forward to an experimental Green Day album, keep going back and forth guys!  Keep mixing it up!  Also keep the 4-year release gaps up.  Bring on 2028!

Edit: I was thinking about Haushinka, the starting point of this discussion. I didn’t care much for the song until I saw the videos of Chile some weeks back. And I began to appreciate it. Sometimes a live version can make a difference!

I've always liked Haushinka, but this is how I've felt about One Eyed Bastard. I didn't care for it until they played it live in Lyon, and since then I've really grown to love it.

My screensaver comes from this place.  Alas, The Rev wasn't there tonight.

Hey @Montclare last couple of images you’ve shared have come up as not available in my region.  Did something change in how you’re sharing?

I'm the same "Content Not Viewable in Your Region". Maybe it's just affecting UK?

Good Riddance had a significant lead over Wake Me Up When September Ends for reaching 1 billion streams, but suddenly Wake has made massive gains and could possibly surpass Good Riddance.     It's a slow week guys, what can I say?   It's not question but a lesson learned in time.    Wake me up when November explodes.
