On the other hand, we already have that track by track description thing where they say the Saviors song isn't noteworthy, but of course we'll be the judge of that!! Another thought I have is that maybe the description of Saviors somehow got lost in translation? I feel like they were probably disappointed because they thought it was gonna be a biblical song, when it was probably about being the saviors of rock n roll lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Some bands leak stuff on purpose. Do you guys operate like that or does the label do that kind of stuff and how do you feel about leaked music?" "Was there any nefarious reasoning behind you guys putting out Father of All, and are there any of those songs you guys want to perform at a later date? Same for Trilogy songs" "What's up with these song titles? Did a certain Dude help with that part?" 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many tracks were recorded during the 72 and saviors sessions? how did they choose the songs that made the tracklist? everyone's favorite song from "saviors" and why? Why did they alter the face of the boy on the album cover picture? Are there any handclaps? Lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GDFan2019 Posted November 23, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 23, 2023 I'm thinking maybe 1981 was originally titled 1972, and this would make sense when they were celebrating their 50th birthdays last year. Maybe the chorus went like this: We're gonna party like it's 1972 We're gonna party like it's 1972 We're gonna party like it's 1972 We're gonna party like it's 1972 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashback Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 In one of the interviews filmed in this room (I don't remember which one), Tré says that most of the album was recorded in London. Didn't expect that. Thought just the beginning was in London. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And their description of the title track, "Nothing says 'fuck you' like a unicorn!" Like, what does that even mean?!?!?!? And top of that, they cared more about the Hella Mega Tour than the album itself!! 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the Billie Joe Zombie t-shirt. Ordered it. Great price £15. Available same day album released. Also 4 other GD t-shirts all for £15. Ordered the Kerplunk flower-in-a-pot as well, need to replace old one. Now comes the hard bit, telling the missus after I've ordered them. Oh shit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like when Billie said, "I hate long songs!". None of the songs on Saviors are that long though. The longest track is 4 minutes while the longest track on FOAMF was 3:44. FOAM had more songs that were in the 2 minute range but I wouldn't say any of the songs on Saviors are "long songs". I don't think Billie not liking long songs is even really out of character for him. Songs like JoS/Homecoming aren't just long songs, they're multi-part songs that are basically a long song made up of 3-5 short songs. Billie has always seemed to have a preference for short songs (2-3 minutes) or multi-part songs made up of short songs than transition into each other. Billie even said in an interview during FOAM era that Jesus of Suburbia is his favourite GD song so I think it's pretty clear he doesn't mean that when he says he hates "long songs" Long songs that Billie probably isn't a huge fan of are probably songs more in the vein of Oh Love or 21 Guns. I don't think he hates those tracks specifically but I think that's more the kind of song he's talking about when he says he doesn't really like long songs. Around 5+ minute songs that follow the basic verse/chorus/verse/chorus/bridge/chorus structure and sometimes tend to overstay their welcome. Now, I really like 21 Guns and Oh Love. They're not my absolute favourite GD songs of all time but I really enjoy them. But I can really understand why Billie wouldn't necessarily prefer those types of songs. They don't really have that many of those types of songs. The first GD song of that nature is Misery, the first song of theirs to surpass the 5 minute point. WMUWSE is the closest thing to this type of song on American Idiot as it's 4:45 and the longest song excluding JoS/Homecoming, but it's also an extremely personal song for him. 21CB has 21 Guns. The trilogy has Oh Love, Brutal Love & The Forgotten. On Revolution Radio, Outlaws is 5 minutes long. I think he's probably fine with all of those tracks that made it onto their albums. I think there are probably just less of these types of songs that make it onto albums. Or these types of songs tend to get shortened before they're put on albums. He's definitely always had a preference for songs in the range of 2:00-3:30. And that still seems to be the case with Saviors 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
