UNICORN VOMIT Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Fever Blister is so dam good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 Just listened and it's so much to take in . Awesome, interesting covers, fabulous These Paper Bullet songs and a couple of unusual new songs - none anything like regular Green Day. Agree on Fever Blister being great but I think I like Razor Baby even more, both are just such interesting songs. Favourite cover is A Million Miles Away, never heard Billie sound like such a cool dude . Southern Girls great too, all the covers are great. And I can't believe Billie singing These Paper Bullets songs has come true. It's really clever how they sound just like Beatles songs - Give It All To You is so Can't Buy Me Love haha. What a treat all this is! Edit: Omg I just noticed some of the melody of Razor Baby is a lot like Minnesota Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

''Razor Baby'' reminds of ''Serve the Servants'' by Nirvana during the chorus I love the covers, I'm listening on repeat to ''So Sad About Us'' (band I adore) and ''I Am A Rock'' <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I love how most of these were kept under wraps until now. "Give it all to You" is the only one I've heard the entire studio version of in its entirety. Out of the 11, only 4 were even possibilities! Billie Joe has a way with covers, and I'm hoping that he thinks about changing up the covers Green Day do live. They have perfected the "Shout / Bright Side / Satisfaction / Hey Jude" medley. It's time to perfect something else! In the Next 30 Years of Green Day, I know they will probably stick to songs that a lot of people know, and that's fine. that's understandable. Green Day concerts have to be a huge crowd pleaser. "Hey Jude" in full would be cool. I prefer whole songs to medleys, so a couple great covers like that would rock. "We are the Champions" was so fantastic it got me into Queen! A huge cover song would be the perfect penultimate song before the encore. "Black or White" - MJ "Stairway to Heaven" - Led Zep Oh my gosh! I googled "biggest rock hits of all time" and every song on the list is a song that Green Day regularly cover! Haha, caught em! Well, my idea is still valid. No medleys, just a couple full version of the songs. Lol The Longshot are covering the deep stuff, and it's perfect! ONE last thing: "I am (a) Rock" is the saddest song ever and kind of stung a bit because of how much my anti-social butt relates to it. What a sad freaking song. I love it! I want to share it on Facebook but I know none of my friends will even bother to watch it. Wish I had some GDA friends, Oh and it looks as if all these are on youtube now so woo hoo!

pacejunkie punk Posted April 24, 2018 Share Posted April 24, 2018 I know he worked his ass off to get there but I’m jealous of anyone who has the musical ability to record covers of this quality anytime he wants. He just thinks of a song he loves and then what? Works out the parts (or gets them online somewhere) for guitar, bass and drums goes out to his studio to record the tracks — no problem when you can sing and play every instrument. This sounds like what he does just to amuse himself. It must be so cool to be able to do that. The closest any of us mere mortals get to doing anything like this with our favorite songs is bad karaoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bellie Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Billie is such a creative guy. I do miss Green Day but I'll give them the time they need, and Billie makes the waiting much more enjoyable than I thought a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bellie Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 Okay my favorites are Fever Blister and Give It All to You. And the covers Billie made are all marvelous, he has the most beautiful voice ever. I especially love As Tears Go By and So Sad about us.I guess I'm in some depressed mood. Or maybe I just can't help but love and listen to the "sad" songs more. I really want to say how much i'm impressed that Billie has recorded all these in so little time. It mustn't have been easy to do it alone. Especially those rainy day sad songs, as he calls them, and of such quality. I'm so proud of him and thankful to be a fan.

pacejunkie punk Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 If he’s been this prolific over the last 6-12 months (not included the songs written for past projects) it makes me wonder how many other songs he has already that he’s set aside for Green Day. Something tells me that when Tre was in Oakland a few months back and they were all in Otis they were listening to his demos and deciding which songs they should save for Green Day and which ones he should release as the Longshot. I just can’t see Billie making that kind of decision in a vaccuum. They had to all agree, which means he has more songs and an idea of the direction for the next GD album already.

Entering the speculation side of this, I wonder if it could be an indicator of another "epic" record (in terms of sound and style) coming next since essentially all The Longshot songs have a completely different tone. Or if it's exactly the opposite, I would not complain in either case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
