justcause Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Justice indeed. How poignant and relevent the themes of both Saints and Working Class Hero have been, especially for Billie. It's haunting the way the guitars surge into a relentless wall of sound before dropping out and John beckons to him: "If you want to be a hero, well just follow me." There's inflection to his vocal now that communicates on another level beyond what was captured on AI. "Free" and "Be" are beautifully articulated with dimension and emotion.Having listened to the song some more, I feel the placing of those lines is an act of respect - it's like having done his own interpretation, Billie Joe hands John's song back to him.

rock n roll punk Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 i'll be honest. it is good but i'm not completely satisfied with it. i'm sure it's just the fact that i only heard like 30 seconds of the song and not the whole version. i like how they try to make it their own-ish. i guess i'm more of a green day person than a john lennon.but as far as it goes, it's not so bad ...
