Naked and Famous Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 The before and after questions don't really work well... people started listening young, their views probably would have changed regardless of listening to Green Day. If this is real research, you have some major issues with your study.I see what you're saying, but he really did word things to differentiate between your general outlook on politics and GD's sole influence on your political views ~ Perhaps this survey should be edited a bit to suit the "vets" lolI dunno... I'm a bit iffy on this questionaire too ~ So many things have gone on the past few years that it may be impossible to pinpoint any one thing that influenced a person's current views (in this case, a band).Personally, I don't think the political tones of AI were really written to sway anyone, but more to just get people to open their eyes to what's going on in the world.I'm just rambling... Anyway, here's my thingy...1. How big a fan are you of Green Day, on a scale of 1-5?5 (assuming 5 means a big fan) because I may not like some of the things they do, but I have an immense amount of respect for everything they do2. Where would you have placed yourself on the political spectrum before becoming a fan of Green Day?I'd have placed myself at about 8 years old...So...clueless...3. Where would you place yourself on the political spectrum now, after having listened to Green Day?Liberal ~ Though I've been listening to them for a long time & can't really say that they've influenced my political perspective4. Where would you place Green Day on the political spectrum?~ Liberal ~5. How much (if at all) has Green Day changed your political perspective?2 = a tiny bitOnly in that they've made me care a little more6. How important are politics to you, on a scale of 1-5?2 = not very important7. How politically active are you, on a scale from 1-5?3 = neither active nor inactive – would probably vote but not involved beyond that(Though I have been to a couple of protests heh)8. How politically active were you before becoming a fan of Green Day, on a scale from 1-5?8 years old...10. If Green Day stopped writing political material, would you still listen to them?Of course.11. If Green Day changed their political views dramatically, so they were not in keeping with your own, would you still listen to them?Yes ~ Their lyrics are too intricately written for them to ever lose my interest12. If Green Day changed their musical style dramatically, would you still listen to them?~ Maybe ~I'd still buy their albums, but I might not be too happy about it lol (*cough* AI *cough*)13. What first (and most) attracted you to Green Day's material? (Please choose only one!)~ Music ~ 14. What do you like most now about Green Day's material? (Please choose only one!)~ Lyrical Content ~ (assuming FHT doesn't count as "GD's material"; if it does, then music hehe) :bored: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wrongbananas Posted March 24, 2009 Author Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yup that came to mind as I was filling mine out. My views and decisions to be more involved with politics had less to do with Green Day and more to do with growing up. i'd credit Jon Stewart more for my interest in politics than Green Day, but oh well.Yep, but that's why I've got question 5 in there as well Thanks everybody by the way...you're all absolutely awesome, and a great help!!
