Popular Post þjáningu Posted December 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hoi polloi (/ˌhɔɪ pəˈlɔɪ/; Greek: οἱ πολλοί, hoi polloi, "the many") is an expression from Greek that means the many or, in the strictest sense, the people. In English, it has been given a negative connotation to signify the masses. .... ok 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legendary Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Degenerate deserves a better video... all videos seems the same, except Trans Am. I was imagine Green Day releasing Degenerate with Oh Love music video vibe, would be cool. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Hermione Posted December 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2020 I don't like the Trans AM video tbh. It's not the right style for The Network. Maybe if there were follow up videos in the same style that continued the story it could work, but alone among all the others that share the distinctive Network style it's a dud. Btw it's lucky Degenerate is such a good song because otherwise I'd have to complain about how badly shoehorned into the lyrics the title word is ("degenERate") 2 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t bothered to rewatch Trans Am because the boys aren’t in it. Already watched Degenerate five times 💀😍 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duh-gen-air-ate. Pisses me off. The entire song sounds like he's trying to speak French and English at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting the stress on the wrong syllables of words to fit them into the lyrics is quite a common thing in punk/pop punk. But it's the name of the damn song . Like if he said "Don't wanna be an ameRIcan idiot". I decided to forgive it because of how fabulous everything else about the song is though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pronounced it as if it were spelled degenérate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Hermione Posted December 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2020 It just sounds weird with the stress on the wrong part of the word lol. It should be deGENerate but he says degenERate. Just being fussy though, artistic license allows it. My favourite part of the video is when skeleton Fink goes DON'T PUSH ME at the camera Also this is the best youtube comment: Quote Oh yeah nude fink hell yeah 2 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Dude Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Where are the two most important members of The Network in this video? Maybe they were off filming the greatest music video ever for Popper Punk, because one of them clearly sings it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave To The Network Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Wow, what a video! Shitty computer generated Fink skeletons isn't what I had in mind for Degenerate, but there we have it. Fink on the floor dangling the mic in front of his mouth is just perfect and something I didn't know I needed in my life until now! Re the breakdancing video, I love how Billie just slides into that pose at the end. He's such an idiot! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 How would Green Day fans feel is only 66.6% of the band showed up for the next video? That's one whole band member and 99 percent of another. Which is horrifying. Imagine Green Day' brand new 2021 single "Hoi Polloi" coming out and the video is Billie on guitar and vocals and then a PART of Mike Dirnt on bass and vocals. He's missing all his phosphorous or an eye or something. Or 1% of his dna is gone. I hope Z and Captain were okay not being in the video, or that they were behind the scenes somehow. Trouble brewing in the Network camp? We know they are angry guys. What if their anger has turned from Green Day..... To themselves! If a brawl broke out between the band, who would come out as the winner? Fight to the Death. My money money is on Captain U. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grohl Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 This whole thing with the lyrics reminds me of Smells Like Teen Spirit. When Nevermind came out everyone really wanted lyrics for SLTS because no one could understand what the fuck Kurt was saying. Nirvana finally provided lyrics on the single release of the song. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do they sometimes say "tribe" sometimes and "group" other times? This has bothered me for oh so many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DookieLukie Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I'm really interested in the lyrics for CUNT. What I can make out sounds like a criticism of Hollywood and potentially Netflix itself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
