the green day thing...

Divide and Fall Apart · 06-12-2007, 11:44 AM

Whether Green Day are punk or not......I really dont see why its relevant. They´ve obviously changed sound since their earlier days but thats just progression. Alot of people knock "American Idiot". I think its one of the best albums I´ve ever bought. Their only "weak" album, in my opinion was "Warning".

And any doubts about Green Days credibility should have been blown out of the water by the 2005 gig in Milton Keynes. Which. ****ing. Rocked.

The song American Idiot could have been on any Green Day record, with lesser quality production.

how can the music suddenly change? music they like or music they have been force fed by the multi national corporate monsters..?

"American Idiot" just has better songs than their other records, thats all. Much more mature sound. Better quality. Better, more intelligent lyrics. It´s so easy to knock a record just cos its popular.

Don't wanna 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.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.

Well maybe I'm the ***got America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along in the age of paranoia.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.

Don't wanna be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information nation of hysteria.
It's going out to idiot America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
Well that's enough to argue.

thats something intelligent shit right there.
