Working Class Hero

Recommended Posts

I just downloaded it and have listened to it about 15 times now. Sorry to you who don't like it or are sarcastic about their recordng their second cover for charity in a year, but I think this is fucking brilliant. Billie Joe's voice is so compelling and the distinct Green Day sound the guys added to the song only enhances the genius of John Lennon. I am so excited to hear what they come up with after this. Man, I just love Green Day.

Wow.

I wouldn't think so. Don't they usually come out at the same time?

i live in germany. usually usa gets stuff first.. so why dont you just upload the song and make some european/asian/whatsoever gd fans happy? (sending the link in a pm of course.. i know you dont want to hurt the rules of your great forum)

Uh, I don't actually have it, and I'm not in the U.S either so we probably won't get it for a while anyway. NZ is pretty behind on this kind of thing as well.

I just heard it!! I think I want to cry I'm that blown away by it. Billie Joe's voice is absolute gold. He has got the most beautiful voice. This production of the song is mind-blowing, and yes, I love the John Lennon touch at the end. I actually don't think I was breathing when I was listening to it. :lol: Green Day have yet again proved that they are by far the best band on the face of the earth. I'm sure that was a massive task they undertook, to cover such a loved John Lennon song, and they nailed it 100% and made it their own. I can't say enough how much I love Green Day. I hope Billie, Mike and Tre are mighty proud of this because they sure as hell should be. :wub::thumbsup::D

TnT dreamsOFhope....yeah i really get my kicks from pissing off people on a Green Day board...honestly get a grip, i have an opinion, get with it. I'm a loyal Lennon fan, so what? You're a loyal Green Day fan but it's fine for you to be that? I just don't like the song ya know, well i actually hate it. My reason for hating it...i dunno really, it feels so meaningless to me, I just dont like the sound of it, nothing specific, i was just...bored to death really. Don't you DARE for one second say that I thought Green Day OUTDID John Lennon............that is just really ignorant, because they'll never make the impact he did, if Billie Joe got shot like him...do u think the world would mourn? you lot on here would...but some of you live in your own little world where Green Day rules...fuck all im saying is, the song sucked..end of rant?

Don't worry about it. I'm an Amnesty member and for me it's kinda annoying that they tried so hard to bring all this together to raise money and people are just going to download it illegally. Sorry if I got a bit uptight about it. I didn't mean to come across as bitchy :/

Ehm, do anybody think that this will be a song that the guys will play to their live shows, like they sometimes did with "I fougth the law" or not?

Sounds like you need to get a grip yourself. You're on a fucking forum for Green Day, you know saying shit like "i thought they totally fucked it up, and ruined a good song" is just gonna piss people off. I'm not saying you're not allowed your opinion, i'm saying it's pretty mindless for you to try and argue with people here about it.

Fucking Italian iTunes has got to be the worst iTunes store ever.

How am I going to get the song if they don't put it up? :sleep:

stjimmyflake ~ Very Thank You !! Thank You! Thank You!

:wub:

Thanks so much for that. I've been desperate to hear it but unable to buy it so I'm really grateful. You've made my day. I think I need to go and calm down now.

Absolutely amazing! They've done themselves proud. :)

It's g-r-e-a-t.

First I didn't recognise Billie Joe's voice at the beginning, it sounds different but still good. Love it.
