Z J Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 That's exactly what my mom said about my 5 year old cousin after he visited. Accurate comparison. Could also describe Stephen Colbert, who's made millions off of winding people up Quote
Guest Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Could also describe Stephen Colbert, who's made millions off of winding people up Don't mind him, he's just mad because he fell for it, even though he claims to be a supreme troll who never wastes his time on the internet Quote
Ian1234 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I line that line, but not in that song. It doesn't make sense there. I'd be fine with it in a different song, though. Even I know Ceadog likes a lot of Green Day's work. Why? I think it's fun. If it wasn't really long and annoying I would like it more. Quote
Popular Post Todd Posted January 3, 2015 Popular Post Posted January 3, 2015 Listening to people defend Dos is almost as boring as actually listening to the album 5 Quote
The Disappearing Boy Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 CumdogNGL this made me lol. I hate it when Green Day plays Minority live.Except: Seems like you're wrong 1 Quote
Mayonaise Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Listening to people defend Dos is almost as boring as actually listening to the album For me it's the whole trilogy. 1 Quote
Z J Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 For me it's the whole trilogy. I actually find people twisting themselves in knots to defend it quite entertaining Quote
Maid Meringue Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 When you first meet the person you love, it is easy to spend time together. There is a raw passion that comes easily. As you've been together for 20+ years, it gets harder and harder to find that passion. You are more concerned with getting the laundry done. To me this song is about rekindling that passion. I really, really wish I could see Fuck Time in the same way as you do, because I enjoy this explanation. Unfortunately I think it's about Beej getting it on with, well, you know. Or we could just pretend that he wrote this song for Tre and live happily ever after #TeamTrillie Quote
Bastard of 1969 Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Yeah, what does "salud" in "All the time" mean. They have to fill lyrics with random words, so it wouldn't be a kul funke line with no lyrics. Quote
Popular Post Anaïs. Posted January 3, 2015 Popular Post Posted January 3, 2015 Relating to the "Haushinka" convo a few lines back, in addition to its being one of their best songs for drums it's also one of their best for guitar, vocal harmonies and all-around emotion. The bridge is my favorite moment of any Green Day song ever. Bar none. 5 Quote
Hermione Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I actually find people twisting themselves in knots to defend it quite entertaining Well people talking about and interpreting songs is naturally more entertaining than people saying "that song sucks" Yeah, what does "salud" in "All the time" mean. They have to fill lyrics with random words, so it wouldn't be a kul funke line with no lyrics. It's how you say a toast in Spanish, it literally means "health" but it's the same as saying "cheers" Quote
grene cniht Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 Also you can't always hide behind "subjectivity" when discussing music. You can't view chord progressions/notes in a subjective way. You're looking at the wrong side of the issue. An A major chord will always be an A major chord. But chord progressions/rhythm/colors can't affect the way I feel the song, they can't decide whether I like it or not. You can create the shittiest and dumbest piece of music that's ever been heard on this planet, but someone, somewhere, may like it and feel it as something good. As long as there is one human being liking something, you can't say that thing is universally shite. That's subjectivity. 2 Quote

He was referring to how DookieLukie labeled my musical facts "subjective" in order to dismiss them. Quote

Even if musically I don't enjoy some of the tracks on trilogy, most of them have smart lyrics. And just because I/you/whoever else think the songs suck, it doesn't mean that's a definite decision for everyone else too. (aka your opinion doesn't make something be (officially declared) a piece of shit.) 1 Quote
Chin for a Day Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 I really, really wish I could see Fuck Time in the same way as you do, because I enjoy this explanation. Unfortunately I think it's about Beej getting it on with, well, you know. lol of course its about him getting it on, many songs are. He's always been a horny little shit. However, the key, for me, is in the first line. I can just hear the conversation: "Adrienne, the damn kid doesn't need his football uniform until Saturday!" 2 Quote
Sauli Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 90% of popular music is about getting it on. Actually it's one of their advantages that so many of theif songs aren't about it, or if they are, they are relatively imaginatively written. 2 Quote

Completely missed the point Was referring to what DookieLukie said, which was that what Ceadog said was subjective when it was just notes If saying that the album cannot be declared utter shite due to subjectivity existing is defending, then be so.

And just because I/you/whoever else think the songs suck, it doesn't mean that's a definite decision for everyone else too. (aka your opinion doesn't make something be (officially declared) a piece of shit.) My problem with this is that it implies literally no song can be bad because of subjectivity. That's just crazy. Well people talking about and interpreting songs is naturally more entertaining than people saying "that song sucks" It's how you say a toast in Spanish, it literally means "health" but it's the same as saying "cheers" I say more than that and you know it Yeah, what does "salud" in "All the time" mean. They have to fill lyrics with random words, so it wouldn't be a kul funke line with no lyrics. Google is your friend, use it Quote

Anaïs. Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 On a side note, I love that after we were hit in the crotch by the Trilogy all complaints about KYE just vanished. We didn't know how good we had it back when that was their only bad song. 3 Quote

Anaïs. Posted January 3, 2015 Posted January 3, 2015 There's a fellow knockin', says his name is Take Back. Should I let him in? He looks angry. And screams horribly. Okay, two. Though I maintain it was deliberately bad. Quote
