hi
do you like GreenDay?
which songs of them you like?
i like holiday and you?
yeah I love this music, my favourite song is "Longview" 
yeah, they make good rock. Thier last album is great.
They alright
i like when i come around 
Oh man, I love Green Day! I really love the song "Misery" from their Warning album. But I love "Wake Me Up When September Ends" also. 
I liked Green Day a long time ago... can't stand them now.
Dookie was just awesome
, but past that, they just died for me.
I do not like Greenday. I liked them before, when I waas 10 and around that age, but now I hate them. PunkRock are just too bad for me. But have fun with them, those who likes them!
no, they have never interested me. They miss the point.

Agreed. 
I like this band
And i like Dookie
their older stuff is pretty good. so is their new stuff but it gets really annoying after hearing it like 20 times a day on the radio
I love GreenDay, my favourite song is - bouleward of broken dreams
When September Ends and Boulevard of Broken Dreams are good recent ones.
And who could forget Time of your Life ?
OOOOOOhhhhhhhh I like Green Day.
I think Dookie was some of the best music I've heard.
That album kicks ass. Back then Green Day was a pure american Punk band.
And the drumming on that album!!!! Man, it was pure energy.
Dookie,
Dookie
I bought 3 cds of them...
But I don't like anymore.
what overplaying does to a great band like greenday. tsk tsk. They still play an awesome live show, nonetheless.
i like "wake me up when september ends" very much
but i don't listen to greenday a lot
there are better bands 
I really like them. My favorite song and album is American Idiot! 
I like them too. They are great!
I love Green Day. Holiday is an awesome song!
They have heaps of good music, I think their cool...
Green day is humiliating it's self by writing such horrible music!
i think their best song is american idiot
These fellows are my favourite band. I like all their music my favourites are
Warning
Paranoia
She's A Rebel
Brain Stew
Jesus Of Suburbia
American Idiot
Closing Time
Holiday
When September ends!
Their musics gives me the shivers!
I like Greenday
But too many people trashing them. Specially after American Idiot. When they first came out Nirvana was too big a hurdle for them but they have really grown. Yet I'd say I like the old Greenday songs better.
Fav Greenday song: Time of Your Life
Green day is okay... Their songs are just basic simple punk and their songs are liked easily, but also easily get boring as well. Sometimes... i think it just be me, but their videos freak me out... (like their newest one) you can see it at yahoo.com (click on music and you need an account)

of course you do, you just became a fan. ugh. listen to the old stuff, the stuff that is actually worth listening to, not their radio garbage.
Yes,
Green is my favourite group,
I like most all thier songs,
espesialy:
Minority
Brain Stew
Long View
American Idiot
Basket Case

So true. Going mainstream has ruined so many bands that were great in the past.
wahha yhea!... I lyk "wake me up wen sept ends"...
I like green day to an my song favorite is holiday.
i don't listen rock music a lot but greenday is an little execption XD
Loved the first couple of albums, then the rest started to sound weak. American Idiot renewed my faith in them though. Jesus of Suburbia is a great tune. Its gotta be the first progressive punk song in a while eh?
I surely like Greenday!
love there work, and their ideas about war and America..
Wake me up when september ends and Jesus of Suburbia are really good
do you like the new album? Bullet in a bible?
that one i don't like so much, American Idiot was much better, this isn't..
looks like they've become a bit greedy..
a shame
Well once I liked them.. but now not much.. now i less like rock.. more pop and like this
They're awesome! I saw them live and it was unbelievable!! My favorite live song will always be King for a day/Shout and my favorite song...Castaway or Prosthetic head
I love Green Day.
yes I do like greenday. good lyrics and marshall with master volume set to 11 ! of course I like that ! wonder what can be better than that ! I have some ideas but to reveal these ideas might be against forum rules !!!
no
simple
new greenday = big suck. Old greenday = awesomness. Whoever said they liked longview is my eternal hero for not quoting some of their new garbage. :-)
i like Holiday, American Idiot, She's a Rebel and a few more songs...
its a good band 
I like Brain Stew the most.
Their performance at the Live8-concert in Berlin was brilliant. Unfortunately I wasn't there and watched it only on tv.
green day is awesome, but i havnt heard their old music tho, i like their songs american idiot, wake me up when september ends, and holiday
i like greenday - time of your life my favorite song
yeah ! i like greenday very much !
i became addicted to there songs !
always playing there songs everyday !
my fav song in there album are:
When I come Around
Holiday
American Idiot
When September Ends
GREENDAY ROCKS ! SOO KEWL !
I did like.. But i listened it too much so i get boried with it.
But now i can listen to it... I have to say that i got their poster on the wall
I use it for decoration you know

Green day is a good band, going over the top with their American Idiot Album. It angers me that people get so stuckup in their new album. IMO, they were even better in their previous albums.
i used to love them, i'm a little dissapointed with the new album though
their old stuff was brilliant, billie-joe has changed so much, wtf does he wear mascara? lol
i used to be a fan of greenday but nbow they have become punk sellouts.
i loved th eold music but not so much when they came back, except for the occasionel song. they just came in weith the whole punk goth thing and forgot about their past. i was sad for a few days and then got over it

DUDE - don't let a band like Green Day ruin punk for you... they're emo.
Try the Dropkick Murphy's, goldfinger, reel big fish, electric six, or the lving end.... (don't know why them but the were the first four to come out).
Cheers,

(BTW - i got nothing against their old stuff)

refer to my above posts and try those four bands. the songs you've listed really aren't all that fantastic.
I HATE Greenday. I hate punk, emo, goth, whatever. Those little wannabee wrist-slitters should take time out and try to make another riff instead of just using the same one for each song.
I like a few songs, Paranoia is my favorite.
Nowadays they are not as good as before.
They are one of the only bands that I like that are on the radio. I have liked them ever since early highschool. a little before dookie came out. I grew up with them. I couldn't just stop liking them just because other people like them now. They were a big part of my life when i was growning up, and they introduced me to a music style i wouldn't have listened to before. I don't care if they are considered "punk" now or not. They play good music regardless.
I like Jesus Of Surburbia, besides that I like AC/DC better and The Who, The Guess Who, The Rolling Stone all that good stuff.
I like Greenday but the old songs are the ones I like best. I dont remember the title but their first single is the one I like the most
holiday wins it for me coz of the guitar rifs - i thinnk they're gr8
i dun listen to them so much... probably cos' i don't own any of their cds... but i remember nearly a decade back when i was like 12... and 'when i come around' mtv was blasting on the TV all the time... boopy tune. i wouldn't compare them to grunge rock (seattle sound) that Nirvana was on... they're totally 2 different spectrums to begin with. mainstream or not... i guess it's simply moving on? i couldn't see them cutting it otherwise, they've never started on the alt track to begin with. (IMO)
I like so much... i love "Wake me up when september ends..." this music is so beautiful!
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
like my father's come to pass
seven years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends
Summer has come and passed
the innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
ring out the bells again
like we did when spring began
wake me up when september ends
here comes the rain again
falling from the stars
drenched in my pain again
becoming who we are
as my memory rests
but never forgets what I lost
wake me up when september ends
Summer has come and passed
The innocent can never last
wake me up when september ends
Like my father's come to pass
Twenty years has gone so fast
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends
wake me up when september ends

i love the video of wake me up when sept. ends.. it's so cool 
I saw them live in concert. At first, I only went because my guitarist really loves them so I thought I'd tag. There was heaps of talk after the release of American Idiot about the band being to comercialised, less about music and more about money. But in actuallity, the album is really good. Back to the concert, it was brilliant. Billy Joe has improved so much since the early stuff. I was a little disappointed at some of the crowd for not knowing what Basket Case was. The highlight for the whole concert was either Jesus of Suburbia, during Dearly Beloved...or maybe "are we the waiting", a beautiful beautiful song. Also, St. Jimmy. But really, most people don't know these songs...only American Idiot and all the other ones that were released on the radio, which is a shame because as I said before, It's a great album. Well written an thoughtfully constructed.
So yeah, I love Green Day 
Greenday is one of my favourite groups.
My favourites are "Give me Novacain", "Basket Case", "Wake Me Up When September Ends", "Time of your Life" and "Whatsername"
i like a few of there songs. Only the ones that get in the charts. Like American Idiot and stuff. I dont like their heavy stuff too much.
do NOT get me started on greenday: THEY SUCK!
I'm so sick of hearing their whiny voices, it makes me want to strangle each and every one of them.
In fact..so does all emo music.
Listen to System of a Down, much better than a horrible band like Green Day
lol thats a little harsh. Im not into that music at all. Im a dance geeza. But to go that far is a bit extreme.
They WERE pretty hot, but now they've gotten too mainstream.
"dookie" was "okay...", i guess...
but everything since then has completely sucked, imo.
plus they're just old lol.
Green day is the greatest punk-emo band ever they're the most influential band in the world They pwn St Jimmy is their best song Boulevard of Broken dreams is great and so is Minority GO GREEN DAY

there is NO SUCH THING as punk-emo
Punk is not emo, emo is not punk, punk-emo does not exist.
There is only emo. Punk and emo are VERY different genres.
To go for something everyone knows - compare Blitzkrieg Bop by the Ramones to Boulevard of broken dreams.
(I think half the problem is that so many people have no idea what punk actually is... lol, it isn't on the radio, so of course people not "in-the-know" don't, I guess)
Greenday is one of my alltime favorite bands. My favorite album is Dookie. I really like they're new album too, though.
I don't know if this happens to anyone else, but I work at Hastings (entertainment store) and I hate when people think that American Idiot is their first cd. It pisses me off so bad. I've actually heard people saying something like, "hey, have you heard that new brand green day, they just came out with their first cd." it wasn't exactly that but it was in that context, and i wanted to just yell at them.

I think that Greenday does make some good songs. But they are just all
like mainstream. Some songs are really boring (haven't listened to that many..) but some are really cool.
Like Basket Case, a little older already, but an awesome song.
A local punk band in my town actually covers it ; -). Sounds cool.
But well, they are popular and famous and they are to like. So what to do else .

hahahaha...it's because of the crap they pass of as punk these days...like "Simple Plan" (shudder) so you can't really blame them. They think they're all hardcore punkers when they're teeny bopping to Simple Plan. It only makes it worse when Simple Plan go aroung touring with Greenday. THEY ARE ALL POP ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like Boulevard Of Broken Dreams.They are good singers. 
I like GreenDay and I think they are a awsome band.
I like the song:
"Wake me up when september ends"
"American Idiot"
"Letterbomb"
"Extraordinary Girl"
and
"Boulevard of Broken Dreams"
I also like some of there old school songs but there kind of old so i wont bother..

green day was great when there new album was dookie and i also liked them when they have maked there new album warning but there newest album green day isn`t good anymore. it`s comerce!! they wanted to make much money with them, and if you listen to holiday and secondly to bryan adams sommer of 96 you will see that the melodie is the same!!! but i like that they don`t like bush, i also don`t like him,.....
They have a professional image, and professional music. Just too cool for school I think.

Lmfao - clearly you don't understand music.
I like them! Especially the song "when september ends"
I'm sure I've seen a thread like this before.
I am a HUGE fan of Green Day. I have a tonne of their music. My current favorite Green Day song is "Poprocks and Coke".

hahaa from bad to worse!
Green day and Soad suck!
I cant stand it, its just.. horrible
greenday has some good music out. however, it is overplayed on the radio and i have never found their vocals as appealing as other groups.
Don't shoot me, but... Greenday, Blink182, My Chemical Romance (?), Sum41 back in the days, blahblah, they all sound alike, and I hate it! And they look bad too, like Greenday's singer... why all the black make-up? And the ugly clothes? (Watch Jesus of Suburbia...
all the girls in that video look like sluts.)
I love greenday since they're like THE original punk rock band.
i cant stand greendays new stuff it just doesnt seem like it has the same greenday attitude they did befor. I really liked their older stuff in middle school, like the alubm kerplunk.
I think greenday is way overrated. There song Bullavard of broken dreams killed them. It was over played way to much. Sorry but I have to say they suck.
| PoweredDeath wrote: |

greenday formed in 1989, punk first formed in the 60's, before becoming huge in the late 70's (i.e. Machine Gun Ettiquette - best punk album ever - was released in 79 by the Damned).
No offence, but anyone who'd seriously label Greenday as THE original punk band would have to totally clueless about punk music. (There's alot more on that I could say, but I'll bite my tongue).
Yeah
Geen Day is one of my favorites
My favorite song from the is American Idiot
I realy like its Video clip
Its nice
And i like also When September ends i even can play it on my guitar 
Im plannin to host my green day site here =)
Green Day is too popular.. this topic too =)
The best Albums: Insomniac, 1039/Smoothed Out Our Slappy Hours/Kerplunk.
Green Day is a nice rock band !
These guys are one of the best bands ever, and I know what I'm talking about, because they are real musicians, they'va been doing this since teenage and been on tour almost all the time. They just enjoy playing fuc***g good music!!!!

i like the most wake me up when september ends
Commercial band imo 
Is the best band for me.. i like his lyrics too...
I like Basket Case, When i come around, American idiot, Holiday, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Wake me up when september ends and the best song for me JESUS OF SUBURBIA..
i can play these songs with all the instruments 
Not to offend anyone, but I think they suck. They used to be alright, but now, they're sellouts. The quality of the music is disentegrated and the singer is monotone. Plus, they sold out.
I'm not too fond of them, but they are really good live. I went to a concert of theirs back in September with my boyfriend and a friend of ours. They were good.
I liked them untill American Idiot came out, then i realised i was wasting my time.
Sorry,
but i hate emo-type music. Try Lamb Of God or something.
Yes,
I like Wake me up when september ends.
Do I like Green Day? Do I?
Of Course!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If There Is A Person on this Forum Who said "No" read this- I would choke you through your screen and bash you on the head with the "American Idiot" album until tou say otherwise, if I could obviosly
With time maybe...
I like all their songs but the best is......(drums please)...
"Wake Me Up When September Ends".
I like it so much, i was singing along at the party last weekend. 
I used to like greenday untill they came out with American Idiot. Of course i was the first one to buy the cd, 3 seconds of listening to it i threw it in to the blacklisted pile A.K.A the hate pile. I'm not the only person that hates greenday. Here is a link to a site who's authors opinions match with mine.
Warning: Beware of horrible web design,
Warning: Not for work of children
http://www.geocities.com/gdaysucks/GreenDaySucks.html?20063
Earlier in days of dookie it there was ρσοεπ a group, and now they simply earn money playing what that pops.This is not the punk and what that rock.
GREEN DAY IS GAY!!!!! THEY SUCK!!!! THEIR VOICES SOUND LIKE A SCREECHING CAT IN THE NIGHT THAT IS HUNGRY AND NEEDS A VETERINARIAN AND IS HOMELESS!
there's a song that definately rocks => basket case
i'm not a punk fanatic but i like green day since my high school.
What is with all these greenday posts? They arent that great. They USED to be incredible, and I would still rank Dookie as one of my favorite albums, not to mention one of my first. However now they have degenerated into poppy emo crap. Sucked into the lifeless souless void that is commercialization. pwned.
i like all the songs of them. most off them i can play on my guitar so that really rocks 
haha... greenday, one of my fav band.. i love jesus of suburbia..
one of a kind.. 5 songs in one, and sounds great..
"im a son of rage and LOVE!!"
they are the best.
my favourite song would have to be MINORITY.
why ??????????? i just like it.
i love all their other songs but that my fav.
i love greenday new and old stuff is brilliant.
i saw them at the leeds festival afew years back and was completely rocked out bythe end of their set and they just get better and better
I think they are alright, but I do think they are missing the edge the Sex Pistols had for example. Pop- Punk!!
| digitaleyes wrote: |

Of course they're pop punk. Punk doesn't exist anymore. It lived and died in the 70s.
Greenday. Terrible. End of story.
I only started listening to Green Day around the time American Idiot came out. When I first heard songs like Holiday, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and Wake Me Up When September Ends, I was hooked instantly.
Now, after listening to some of their older [and better] work like Dookie and Nimrod, the new stuff doesn't appeal to me as much. I don't know if its that every other person seems to love American Idiot and thats it, but I hope they release something new in the same style as their mid-90's days.
If you dont like greenday because of their new sound! you should at least give them credibility for their awesome croud perfomance at concerts!! they really know how to rock a crowd!!!
I like they very much and Dookie was one of the best's album's they recorded in my opinion... 
i like them but i thin Dookie was the best alboum they will ener release.
when i come around is my favourit song.
I have loved Green Day for years and I must say that yes some of their chord progressions are really basic and even though they're punk rock a lot of their music is poppy and overplayed on mainstream radio BUT they have survive for over a decade as a band and have had consistent sales throughout all that time so they must be doing someting right.
I love their older stuff more especially the Insomniac album and FOD on the Dookie album.
If you watch Bulet in a Bible dvd you will realise that there is more to their new music then just a bunch of hits to make the charts. they have never been concerned about ratings or even sales they are saying what they think, ripping into the govts of today and standing up for their own beliefs, so good on em i say.
Yes very simple music that's one problem, lack of originality is another, lack of angles is the last.
Jumping right into pop, the railroad of music, so very hard to be original and interesting and no suprise they didn't succeed appart on few titles. They survived thanks to money that music brings them, not because of music quality. That said a lot of people think that success is quality so with that sort of rules...
Ha well I'm a bad guy, if you enjoy them, cool for you and sure there's nothing wrong in that.
i really dont like it. wannabe mainstream punk. not my style at all
Hey... I like Green Day!! It's a nice band... 16 years ago they were a punk, I like their discs 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hour, Kerplunk and Dookie.
Nice times... now, their songs are nice too but the past is better. 
BASKET CASE
That gets me right between the eyes.
Awsome
GREENDAY is such a great band.
I havent seen their international superstars commercial lately though.
They were so much better in the old days.. They have become these ultra got emo kids who have been like to sober..
w.e they're a good juvinile band becaus their music is pretty simple, but then that's why they are good in their own sense
Yes od like Green DAy
im looking for help to design an green day site.
pleae send me a Private Mesaage
I came all this way to frihost forums for peace and i find a green day topic! Lmao!

No, Green Day has gone against everything that they said they were trying to do, they have completely changed the way they think and they don't admit it. I would have no problem is they admited they changed as people, but they continue to lie and say they were always this way, which isn't true.
But don't get me wrong a few of their songs are alright, their old albums were much, much better.
Longview is my favorite song. 
I do not like Greenday. PunkRock are just too bad for me 
Greenday are an excellent band with a proven track record. Just because they get played on the radio alot doesn't change this, it just enforces it. More than anything they write great songs and their new album has many great songs but done in a very experimental fashion (not your typical song structure). I often find that as soon as a band become mainstream it seems to be 'cool' to hate them, go against the crowd. And as for their old music being better? I definitely ain't sure about that, I own every album and they are all excellent in their own right (asides from maybe 'Warning')
I love green day fantastic band..
Have you seen the "Bullet in a bible" show?
Again, green day is horrible. The only talent they have is in the lyrics.
| roeenoy wrote: |

euh NO
why? dunno
just few songs, basket case, warning, blvd. of broken dreams.
I dont like it, its just so stupid band. I hate it all of my heart. i could write more, but i think i lave it. I HATE IT!
Good god, I can't beleive people are still having these kinds of debates over greenday. I think that every single time i've ever logged on to frihost, since the beginning of time there has always been a crapload of people divided on this greenday issue. The bottom line, and my opinion so you know its true
, green day used to be great, dookie is of course classic, as well as the two before dookie. but they've been slowly going downhill since. That last album was a steaming pile of mainstream crap. done and done.
Yeah i love greenday. I wear a greenday sweatband. But they were better in the years gone by. I saw them at Milton Keynes bowl last year. It was great, the pyrotechnics were fantatsic. It all worked a treat, the lighting was great and it was a good hot summers day. But the older less serious stuff is defiently better than the new stuff, like: longview, basket case, when i come around, 86 stuff like that.
However my all time favourite band is The Offspring. I have liked them for many years, and its what got me into music. They have been going for 22 years now, and I love em. I only seen them once though, but it was amazing. They actually influnced a lot of todays rock bands.

Hmmm, have you ever tried to write a song? If so please post a link so I can judge for myself whether you could do better, I severely doubt it. P.S. if your song is going to be in English you will need to brush up on your spelling and grammar
Everyone says that Green Day are sellouts...well I guess they are, but their concerts are absolutely insane. I've been a fan for a while now, but I finally went to their concert on the American Idiot tour. That was the best show I have ever seen, they really know what they are doing.
American Idiot is a very solid record that you can listen to all the way through. If you think about it, all of their records are like that!
As far as my favorite songs... probably Basket Case and Minority.
When it comes to Greenday I find that I have to opt out for neutral. Up until a few years ago I didn't even know them, and when I found out who they were I thought that they were okay. Fast foward to the last day of school this current year, I found a mixed cd of their songs on the ground, picked it up and listened to it. Some of the songs were good, others pointless. So to answer the questions. I don't dislike them, but I wouldn't personally get their music.

I liked greenday when they didnt turn Emo and jumped on that bandwagon. But one of my favorit songs was "when I come around". That song was on the radio when I was about like 3 or 4 years old and probably one of the first songs that I heard when i was first introduced to music.
Yes, they know how to rock the crowd.. But I don't like rock music..ά
Greenday is cool! But not a great fan!

i completley agree. i like their old music but i feel betrayed by their newer stuff so now i don't listen to any of it. so no.
I don't like Green Day. However, they do have a few good songs, such as "Basket Case", "Minority", and "Welcome to Paradise"...And of course, "Longview"...Their new album is the pinnacle of awful though
i think greenday is ok, despite of what most people think. I think the whole "anti-greenday" thing is just a direct result of the hype they're getting. anyway, i'm not that crazy about it.
It feels like so long ago since Dookie came out. I was in 6th grade or so. Wow.
I love Green Day...have all their albums and love their direction of late. American Idiot was an amazing album. The most punk thing a band can do is change, try new things. I mean, these guys aren't kids anymore. They've grown up and apparently, are like the big brothers to newer bands like My Chemical Romance. They have influenced an entire new genres in the past few years. Gotta love that.

Nope, I really don't gotta love anything about Greenday. And I don't. I utterly despise them. On my list of alltime worst bands in the world, Greenday most definitely tops it. I can't possibly stress how much I hate them. But of course, thats just my opinion...
which in this case just happens to be the gospel truth
I dont really like there songs, but some are good some are bad.
didnt like them that much in the begining but they have done pretty ok in their new album....got some pretty decent tracks.
like them since they very first album 
I loved the old albums, but the new ones for example American Idiot, aint that good 
i love greengay....ooops
greenday
I like alot of their songs but oddly they tend to give me a headache if I listen to them for extended periods of time.
I like green day since 1991. Yes they changed a lot, now theyre so popular (it remembers me dookie years), but it was he music ihad listened when i was teenager. From 1039 to American Idiot good Music. But teh best Album: INSOMNIAC.
i like them!
but i really dont like there huge egos!

Turned emo? Listen to Kerplunk. They were emo before emo was cool.

You mean they got older? What's so wrong with getting older, more mature, having different priorities? I get so tired of hearing how Green Day's sold out or whatever. One, if you're an actual fan of them from their early stuff to now, you see the natural progression of their music. Artists ALWAYS try to be a little different. The only Green Day album that went back was Insomanic and it was probably their poorest. Nimrod and Warning really tried new things that they didn't try before.
Fact is...most people who talk about Green Day don't really know their music before Dookie came out. Kerplunk remains one of the best albums I've ever heard. "Christie Road" and "No One Knows" are classic.
I actually like their new stuff. Maybe because I'm political by nature, but I enjoy watching bands mature. Blink 182 went through it before their breakup. Most bands find a new calling. Then, bands like Bush get worse. Green Day's not a one-trick pony. They have a lot of talent and are attempting to become better with every album. They didn't sell out. They just found new things to speak about. Everyone should get off their music elitist high horse and if not appreciate what they've done, cut them some slack.
Don't want to be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new mania.
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind ****** America.
AMERICAN IDIOT!
*Pretend to shoot my head off and headbangs*
Errrr
Went too far I guess.
Look over there!
*runs*
i like Green day, the first music i have ever liked is burnout... i don't really can talk about the lyrics when i begin to like i don't understended nothing O.o...
i just can say that no matter what someon call they , they have an awesome sound, i love to listen dirnt bass...
About the american idiot... to me is just a "proud to be patriot" hurt...
im not an antiamerican,but i know that in everywhere there are people that is very nationalist or not, anyone who "watch the tube" xD, know that USA is the place with more "patriotism per head", green day just said some trues to some people and obviusly the popular opinion ,which made with TV, get mad...
i love green day....american idiot is a great album
Ive got most of the greenday albums and i wouldnt say i have a favourite album or song. I saw them in concert last year at christmas which was absolutely awesome, it was so packed and they were performing for ages it was great.
I use to, but now I don't. I listen to better music now these days, music that is not crappy like theres is now, and there live performances suck butt also.
My girlfriend loves them, and I love their old stuff, but the suck nowadays.
I like a few songs mainly
American idiot
Closing Time
Time of your Life
But thats me
Plus greenday sound way betta live!
They're okay, but everyone acts like their the best thing since sliced bread, which just turns me off them. They're good but there's no amazing skill in their playing or song writing that keeps bringing me back.
They do write lyrically clever time though.
I like Warning and Minority best.
Jaykay2, Closing Time isn't by them. You're probably listening to the Semisonic song.
YEAH,YEAH,YEAH,YEAH, MY LOVE....
