insomniac_88 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 this song has to be my absolute favorite Green Day song ever. I don’t know what about it gets me. I’m gonna start with the guitar melody. Something about the mix of punk pop-ish badass dance rock hooks me for some reason. And the random OO00OoooOooo00000OOooo during the intro is just🤌. And the riff between “runnin runnin red” and “the bullet that you asked for” is just PERFECT. Also, the way Mike and Billie’s voices intwine in the main chorus is everything. not to mention the VIBRA SLAP ON VULTURES ARGGGG THAT GETS ME. and the way he says “the dirtiest kind” is just so good. Also, the guitar on the main chorus like dehne dehne dehne dehne dehne it’s perfect. I’m basically just rambling now, but the song is literally perfect. And the silly goofy music video with the motorcycles- idk I love it. I’ve never met another Green Day fan whose favorite song is kill the DJ. I just want to see if anyone else out there in idiot nation loves kill the DJ. lmk if you do 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want to see if anyone else out there in idiot nation loves kill the DJ. lmk if you do I'd say I've seen quite a few people on here saying how much they love the song. I love all Green Day but it's probably one of the songs towards the bottom of my list. Having said that I love "Amy" and there's a lot of people who don't.

Insomniac1984 Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Kinda releated to this topic... Do you know there are some versions of Kill the DJ? The first one is from UNO album, of course. Also, you get the one from Clean Version of the album UNO. Then, there is a Edit for UK Radio which replaces some lyrics in the song. Finally, there is a fourth version I have never heard from a promo I watched on discogs. Here's the Edit version... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karol Oliveira Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 I love this song but I have to try really hard to ignore the "kiling you to death" line 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solongfromthestars Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 Absolute banger. I love Kill the DJ. It's so different to anything they've done before and it turned out so well. Sounded amazing live even on crappy videos. I love the music video too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Hermione Posted June 3 Popular Post Share Posted June 3 I love it! It's one of the best Green Day songs to walk around feeling badass to lol. It's no surprise that The Network outrageously STOLE the verses, made them dirtier and put them in their song Jerry Falwell's Pool Party. 16 hours ago, Insomniac1984 said: Kinda releated to this topic...

I've always thought the line "hold him underwater til he suffocates and drowns" on the "clean" version is a lot more brutal than "til that motherfucker drowns" 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roquer Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 (edited) I didn't even remember the song, so you can guess how much I played it over the years. Well, all the trilogy gets very little play in my house. I like they released the Demolicious comp though, I played more that. Edited June 8 by roquer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamykatie Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Despite being exhausted, when I got back to the hotel after Hella Mega I instantly looked up Green Day songs on Spotify and Kill the DJ was one of the first ones to come up. I then proceeded to sing it around the house for the entire week after. I really love songs that are repetitive like that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post The Grohl Posted June 14 Popular Post Share Posted June 14 This is the song that made me excited for the trilogy. Oh Love didn't do it, but when I heard this song I was all in. It's such a BANGER. Is it a little silly? Yeah, but it gets you pumped up! And it's so different from anything they've done, so I'm glad they just went for it. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
