Jillie Boe. Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 because many of the songs are about what i'm going through, they depress me a lot sometimes. I mean when someones telling you that you walk by yourself and then starts dragging on about it for 4:20 secs. It's not nice and that's one of the reasons i'm sick of that song. So i wouldn't say they saved my ass at all, but they are many other songs that cheer me up so they can be fun to listen to at times. although i'm sick of listening to green day right now, i just can't get into their songs anymore like i used to, one of the reasons are that i think some of them are full of shit now.

cellophaneice Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Green day has defantly made me more aware of things that I just completly ignored before and I think that counts for saving my ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BitterSweetMigraine Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 They just made me happy in some tough times I had a couple years ago. They saved me from becoming depressed I guess. And also they taught me it's ok to be different, but I think alotta people learned that from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_original_mrs_cool Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Same here.Ditto.They also saved me from a life of dumb-ass-ness. I have always been 'alternative' (for want of a better word) but then i kinda got to the stage when i was thinking, maybe its just easier to be like everyone else? i was suffering from some bad times, and was pretty depressed, so started toning down my image, wearing alot more football shirts and stuff. buying more normal stuff. Then Green day at Mk gig rolled around and i found i had to 'dress-up' to look like myself. The old clothes came back out, and it was like id never been away. i felt myself again for the first time in a few months, and i relised that trying to be like everyone else hadnt made me happy, just more miserable. I was losing myself and GD reminded me who i was again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ImnotaDrIjustPlayOneOnTV Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 They have never saved my ass. I guess in some wierd way they are saving health. When I work out I can't stand to work out to anything other than Green Day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherri Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 I think that they pretty much made me realize who I was. I used to just listen to music to listen to it, and not enjoy it.. Or think that I had to be like the girls at my school. But now I realized that I don't want to be all girly and pretend that everything is okay all of the time. I learned that it was okay for me to feel certain ways about things, because everyone has an opinion. I think that they just showed me who I was and now I know what I want to do with my life...

Guest Quietus Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 The saved me from bad music and panic attacks. And they saved me from having nothing to do for art, I use them for multiple projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyond_Electric_Dreams Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 they also basically saved me from myself (by the way i got that off of somebody else's post, i just forgot to quote them). green day made me realize who i am and that i need to be my own person...a minority. wow...thats the corniest thing i've ever written. oh well...its true.There is so much irony in that statement it's not even funny. Well yeah, it is.As far as Green Day saving me, nah hasn't happened. Although they did basically got me into music, but they haven't saved me...yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
take me_away Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 Boredom, for one. But also I've become more aware of the world beyond my little "bubble," I question things a lot more, and I try not to take anything for granted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letterbomber Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 I do that to Ah, me too Well Green Day have made me sleep a lot better when I listen to them whilst I sleep. Um ..for school things I use some of their quotes, or song titles for example, I used some of their songs for street names in math. And just make my day sooo much better whenever I see, hear, or think about them. Something to think about when youre down:Billie Joe masturbating on stage "ORANGE MOCHA FRAPPACCINO!!!"-Tre on BIAB lolif you've ever seen King For A Day live, whoo fun times any hilarious interveiws Ah, or just Green Day in general. I find thinking about their songs funyn except for the sad ones.And they get me ready in the morning lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
