Guest Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Symptomatic of the American culture that steals from everyone else and creates nothing. Billie has a sucky taste in music, we already knew that. "99 revs is the best song I've ever written." That just means he has shit taste in his own music. No sane person could call The Clash "sucky". Quote
DookieLukie Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Symptomatic of the American culture that steals from everyone else and creates nothing. #retcon Well, duh. Historically and demographically it makes sense that America is a combination of a lot of other cultures' ideas. Plus, every idea is inspired by something else along the way. It's not retcon. Billie has a bad taste in music but manages to write good music. I doubt he thinks his good songs are that good. Quote
DookieLukie Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Why do I bother tbh. Don't bother, please. Quote

He thought Jesus of Suburbia was brilliant when he wrote it. Come on, man, even you're a better troll than this. Quote

Anaïs. Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 When did he say that? Talking to Billboard about how it was the song that saved them. "After you write a song like that, it was like, 'I can't turn back now.' You can't all of a sudden say, 'I want to write a normal record.'" Quote

WhiteTim Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Wow he was full of shit. He wasn't on that song 1 Quote
DookieLukie Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 He wasn't on that song I mean about "never going back" to a normal record. Quote
Anaïs. Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I mean about "never going back" to a normal record. He was referring to making AI specifically as a normal record. Feel free to keep grasping at straws. 2 Quote
UNICORN VOMIT Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 He was referring to making AI specifically as a normal record. Feel free to keep grasping at straws. Beat me to it. Funny though the interview talks about him writing it practically chronologically - is homecoming the exception. 1 Quote

AlissaGoesRAWR Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Why does that U2 song/Makeout Party remind me of the song "I Want Candy" now? Quote
The Platypus! Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I'm confused are people saying JOS isn't a great song? Quote
