  1. Man he looks good here. Just look at that profile. I really like his hair short on the sides and long on top like this.

  2. Yesterday I was looking for some relaxing music to rest my brain and after all these years I finally got around to listening to some of Foreverly (other than Long Time Gone, which I've always loved). It was definitely a good idea, I'm looking forward to sitting down one of these days and listening to the album in whole. Those vocals are angelic.

  4. ^^^That is definitely my favourite haircut on him. I've always been a short hair fan. Although somebody just posted a load of pics of him with long hair on instagram, and he looks stunning in some of those too. The first one and the last one are my faves. I think the dreads look gorgeous when they're pulled back off his face like in the first one. And I just love how silky his hair looks in the last one - makes me wanna run my fingers through it.

  5. I think this might be my favorite look ever and I could stare at that pic until the end of time.

  6. Oh man, nearly fell off my chair when the BITUSA video appeared, he looks so good, the fitted white shirt with rolled up sleeves just added to the whole gorgeousness of it.

  7. It's probably been overplayed, but for me it's still THAT holly song I can never dare to skip. Also it's the only song that's actually made me cry. I don't know why but I find the guitar solo so emotional. I agree completely. Warning (the song) was one of the songs that made me love them. It's a poppy album, but hey, not everything has to be stuff like Insomniac. Blood, Sex & Booze, Warning, Jackass, Hold On, Deadbeat Holiday, Misery... some of the timeless gems this album has to offer.

  10. This is the unpopular opinion thread, so Warning has always been one of my favorite albums. However, I think Castaway is one of the weaker ones on the album. I find it to be very generic and doesn't fit in the whole style of the album.

  11. I’ve come across quite a lot of fans that don’t like that song. They either think it’s been overplayed over the years (which is totally understandable) or they think it’s a poor song (which I don’t agree with). I guess part of my love for this song is irrational, since it’s probably one of the first GD-songs I heard and therefore probably is responsible for me getting into Green Day in the first place. But even so, I think it’s a great song. It’s slow / mid-tempo and repetitive yes, but packed with emotion imo. You just have to observe his emotional state when playing it live at various occasions to see what I’m on about. It also baffles me a bit when people don’t see its meaning / purpose in the story of AI (not saying you hold that position). To me it makes perfect sense, I interpret it in the following way: After being dumped by Whatsername (in Letterbomb) JOS is essentially pretty much at rock button, so in a lot of mental and emotional pain. WMUWSE is essentially a self-reflective song, a necessary part of every coming of age process / personal evolution. It’s true that Billie seems to be only talking about himself, but I would take his story and thoughts portrayed in the song as also a metaphor for what JOS might be thinking. He’s thinking about his past, the painful things that have happened to him that still hurt him today. At the same time though, it’s a song about trying to make sense of and ultimately accepting the past events as part of a personal evolution (‘’becoming who we are’’). Therefore, the song starts with a retrospective view of looking at the past, to then changing that attitude by looking forward towards the future. This evolution is necessary for JOS, because it causes him to accept what has happened (painful it may be) and think of a way forward. He therefore realises that things can’t go on as they have, nothing has turned out the way he hoped and that he needs to take action accordingly. That in turn then leads to Homecoming and the death of St. Jimmy. This song may not appear strictly necessary, as the story would probably work even without it, but I think it definitely has its place and importance. Also, there’s something about the solo of this song that absolutely tears my heart out every time
