Good Ridance was popular. I don't think it was revolutionary. I mean to be revolutionary, it would have to have a message and influence. I don't think Good Ridance was revolutionary as much as it was uhm... sentimental

don't think you guys know what revolutionayr means.

rev·o·lu·tion·ar·y adj

1. relating to or involving a political or social revolution

2. causing, supporting, or advocating revolution

3. so new and different as to cause a major change in something

If you're not talking in terms of how popular the song was, I'd say Minority because anyone can relate to it, more than AI. If I sing that song, it still has meaning but it'll be me singing 'Don't want to be an American Idiot' when I'm not American. But then it can be viewed as fighting against the influence the US have on our culture.... So Minority and American Idiot. But Minority's a powerful song. Jesus of Suburbia too...

I think every Green Day song is the soundtrack to a revolution - everything begins with the opening of minds, the changing of opinions, the simple statement that all your doubts are 'someone else's point of view'.

I don't see how anyone could listen to any Green Day album with an open mind and an honest heart - and not have their lives changed, fundamentally and forever.

Every time I listen to a Green Day album, there are questions and challenges and defiance, the 'will to persevere' in the middle of despair, and everything changing and moving. These songs don't stand still in time - they're like something living. They have all these facets, like a diamond - different ones catch the light at different times; they are always relevant, they are never old. How many albums from the early 90s have the power that Dookie still has, and will always have? It's because truth doesn't date, and an honest voice doesn't get old.

well, i would say j.o.s., but i don't think very many people who dont listen to green day really understand it.

so either:

minority

good riddance

macy's day parade

possibly american idiot, but as said above, it doesn't really have the same effect on non-americans

most people can relate to the other songs

I suppose you were quoting me when you mentined non-americans but now that I really think about it, it can also mean something to us. The US have a lot of influence on other countries (which is not always a good thing) and it could represent the world trying to fight that desire that they seem to have of turning the world into mini-them... I don't know if that was clear...

But my first thought was that Minority has potential....

I don't really care. Eveybody's gonna go with the grossly overrated mega-singles that aren't any good anyway.

Personally, I think it should be Ha Ha You're Dead. Because I like making fun of dead people and most people don't like Shenanigans, so it would be weird.
