localinsomniac Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 I sort of feel the same, and would agree, We are The Waiting is a weak track in and by itself, but in the context of the album it really works, for me it gives St Jimmy even more of an exslosive effect when it comes on, almost as if 'We are the Waiting" is the 'calm' before the storm (St Jimmy) Extraordinary girl is pretty much universally accepted to be the weak leak on the album, She's a rebel is not too terrible. QFT The only things I don't agree with is Last Of The American Girls and Peacemaker, them 2 tracks really do 'do it' for me, especially the Latino feel of Peacemaker. I love the bridge in Peacemaker, a lot. The vocals aren't quite rapid-fire, but I like the swiftness with which they're delivered. My probably with Last of the American Girls is that, the first time I heard, I immediately thought of that Fountains of Wayne song Stacy's Mom...and I don't know why. That comparison haunts me to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musiclove1024 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Even though Jesus of Suburbia, American Idiot and Holiday are THE BEST, I am also on the 21st Century Breakdown bandwagon. That whole album is AMAZING and agree it doesn't get the praise it deserves. It is my fave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave To The Network Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 American Idiot is for sure the better album in my opinion, but I love both if them very much in their own ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
