AlissaGoesRAWR Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 The demo version is so much better than the album version. It has such a dark, sinister mood. The production ruins the trilogy version. There's a surprise. Disagree about Ashley. The lack of the bridge verse used in the studio version really kills the demo. It's pretty boring and repetitive, actually. 2 Quote
Oxymore Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 guuuuuuuuuuuurl one of the members who posts in that thread (sporadically) bought billie's address, iirc, and went to california to take pictures in front of his gates with his dogs soooo.......... Omfg I didn't know thhat, I'm really sorry. I never really realize that kind of person exists (and hangs out on GDC..) Quote
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Omfg I didn't know thhat, I'm really sorry. I never really realize that kind of person exists (and hangs out on GDC..) Seriously? They're infesting this place. Quote
Oxymore Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Seriously? They're infesting this place. But I never see their posts ? Does it mean I don't come here enough ? Or maybe I just don't pay attention.. Quote
AlissaGoesRAWR Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 But I never see their posts ? Does it mean I don't come here enough ? Or maybe I just don't pay attention.. There was someone on here who basically wanted Adrienne to die because she "took credit" for Foreverly. Quote
Oxymore Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 There was someone on here who basically wanted Adrienne to die because she "took credit" for Foreverly. Ah yes I rremember that one in particular Quote

Hermione Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Post above not included, let's end the talk about the fangirls thread and stick to unpopular Green Day opinions please. The demo version is so much better than the album version. It has such a dark, sinister mood. The production ruins the trilogy version. There's a surprise. I like the album version more because it's more energetic and less repetitive, and just sounds better overall. But I do really like the sinister mood in the demo as well, the way he slurs the "You led me to the well..." part is great. Glad we have both! 1 Quote

But I do really like the sinister mood in the demo as well, the way he slurs the "You led me to the well..." part is great. Glad we have both! Admittedly, the demo version is a bit repetitive. The solo in there does break it down a bit. For me the demo wins hands down when it comes to sound, though. Quote

Asa. Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Am I the only one who doesn't care about the original intro to Amanda? I didn't even realize it was gone the first 3 or 4 times I listened to the song. It wasn't really THAT good. Quote
walking_c0ntradicti0n Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Beezey I miss her. SORRY so late to the conversation, yes unpopular opinions. I can forgive repetitiveness and boringness on demos because they're demos, but on actual songs on the album? Fuck's sake, get it together. Also, LBNT is not magically somehow better in its demo form, it's still a horrendous song. LBNT is too fuckin slow on demolicious, album speed was fine Quote
DookieLukie Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Am I the only one who doesn't care about the original intro to Amanda? I didn't even realize it was gone the first 3 or 4 times I listened to the song. It wasn't really THAT good. The original intro gives a different feel to the song. I don't know which one I prefer. Honestly, that song is really underrated. 2 Quote
Anaïs. Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Honestly, that song is really underrated. Strangely enough, I agree; the vocal filters and clean guitars are still annoying, but it's probably in my top five Trilogy songs. Not that that's saying much, as only one Trilogy song is in my top forty Green Day songs. Quote

Anaïs. Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Which one is that? I'm curious Brutal Love cracks the top forty. Top five for the Trilogy are Brutal Love, Dirty Rotten Bastards, Oh Love, Amanda and Nuclear Family. Kill the DJ would make it if it had heavier guitars, but as is, alas. 1 Quote

Spike Posted April 18, 2014 Author Posted April 18, 2014 LBNT is too fuckin slow on demolicious, album speed was fine The quicker it is the better, because then it's not as long. 4 Quote
DookieLukie Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 My top five (taken from my statistical ranking of the Trilogy) is Brutal Love, Nuclear Family, X-Kid, Stay the Night, and Missing You. Quote
munns6691 Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 Please explain! I think it's one of the worst songs on Tre, but when I view it in the context of the Trilogy as a whole there are tons of others that beat it (in my opinion). 99 Revolutions is much better in Demolicious form. 3 Quote
Spike Posted April 18, 2014 Author Posted April 18, 2014 My top five (taken from my statistical ranking of the Trilogy) is Brutal Love, Nuclear Family, X-Kid, Stay the Night, and Missing You. Wow, do we really agree on something 100%?! Mind = blown. What's your statistical ranking, just play count? Quote
Certified Nimrod Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 The quicker it is the better, because then it's not as long. If I asked you again, would you tell me the same? 1 Quote
