desertrose Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 Green Day’s Basket Case Video Like You’ve Never Seen It Before It’s nuts to think of a world without Green Day. They’ve been around forever, and are perpetually being ‘discovered’ by teenagers the world over. Absolutely everybody has gone through at least one Green Day phase. Some of us are happily still in theirs 25 years later. 1994’s Dookie was their third album, and Basket Case the third single from it, but this was the song that really put them on the map, and turned them from a scrappy, high-as-hell trio of dudes into global superstars. The song, which frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has described as “a loser national anthem… for weirdos”, is one of their signature tunes – it’s probably tied with Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life) as the one you’d be annoyed about them not playing at a show. So, let’s travel back a quarter of a century and dive headfirst into the award-losing, technicolor vision of insanity that is Green Day’s Basket Case video. https://www.kerrang.com/features/green-days-basket-case-video-like-youve-never-seen-it-before/?fbclid=IwAR01RDWL6cAfEXrO_lVallrezqlzwOndvuSlunccqMrpAM9TLb-CAX6dZlc Someone’s Mashed Up The Simpsons Steamed Hams Scene With Green Day’s Basket Case And It’s Great The Simpsons steamed hams scene has become an extremely enduring meme. The scene with Principal Skinner awkwardly trying to impress Superintendent Chalmers lends itself to parody, and there are remixes set to piano, and Feel Good, Inc. by Gorillaz, and even a bizarre version with the scene dubbed in 10 times. Now someone has put the scene to Green Day’s song Basket Case, and it works perfectly. https://www.triplem.com.au/story/someone-s-mashed-up-the-simpsons-steamed-hams-scene-with-green-day-s-basket-case-and-it-s-great-132533?fbclid=IwAR0W3RV6j2fsBHyCVlljMBLBiE4eDhpnNgiOmJcu07iQ8MioOCGWy9QQ4Tc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was already good enough to see it become a popular meme, this is now the icing on the cake 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alienlifeform Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The only thing is the video is from 1987, so he was 15 (or 14, if it was recorded in january)...

Rumpelstiltskin2000 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 This came up on my Twitter today even though the article is dated September 2018 so maybe it's been posted before but Green Day come in at No. 3 on Rock Sound's 10 Saddest Music Videos: https://www.rocksound.tv/features/read/these-are-the-10-saddest-music-videos-ever 03. GREEN DAY - 'WAKE ME UP WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS' Packed with more heartwrenching emotion than most Hollywood blockbusters, Green Day managed to make the lump in our throat the size of an apple with this epic. Another Rock Sound piece here where Green Day come in 2nd place for the best closing line for Whatsername: https://www.rocksound.tv/features/read/these-are-the-11-best-closing-lines-on-albums 02. GREEN DAY - 'WHATSHERNAME' "Forgetting you, but not the time" The perfect ending to the epic tale that was American Idiot, there's something about Billie Joe Armstrong's delivery of this line that sticks with you unlike anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when I go on Spotify and click on a Green Day album under the ones I've already listened to on there(spotify) its like the play button just for Green Day/ and The Longshot dissappeared is this happening to anyone else too? 😕 i can't listen to any of their albums for some reason now Weird. Mine is glitching too. There’s only an option to download the albums not play them. It’s happening for all my artists some don’t come up with any albums at all. They’re having a problem.
