Re-listening to Stay the Night for the millionth time, and noticed how sweet Billie's voice sounds during the verses. If you listen closely, it's not as strong as the other tracks.

I love Say the Night, one of my fav songs on the album for sure!

The only songs I'm "Meh" about are Let Yourself Go & Oh Love. The rest are fantastic.

how you are meh about let yourself go? are you kidding me?

Troublemaker is the only low point on the album for me. I actually like the chorus, oddly enough, but the rest of the song just sounds like a bad Foxboro Hot Tubs song. Rest of the album is top notch. Ive been following the evolution of this album since the first low quality recording of Stay The Night we got two years ago and was scared that it would not sound as fresh as it should by the time it came out but that wasn't an issue at all.

Im actually REALLY happy that we got an album more in the vein of Warning and Nimrod than trying to remake American Idiot a third time. They hinted at it in 21st Century Breakdown, especially in songs like Murder City, Little Girl and Peacemaker.

I dowloaded many Green Day and other bands stuff but new record is like celebration. You open the case, put CD in sound system, open booklet and that feeling is awesome! Better then everything else. That's the only one reason why I don't want to listen to Uno until I get its physical copy. I ruined a bit the new record of my fav Polish band record by listening to leaks and I really don't want to do it with Green Day. I just want to wake up at 9 a.m. on Monday, run to the nerest music store, buy it, jump as crazy in store, dressed in Green Day t-shirt, back home and play the record. That's the reaons why I and some of my friends don't listen to it now.

Who don't pirate music these days?

:P

this is exactly what im talking about!!! why dont you have a listening party with your friends (so you can still be excited and what not) and then buy the album a few days later...

I know people are going crazy over Stay the Night but I actually feel like the studio track isn't as good as the various live versions we've heard. I still like it though!

My opinion is that Green Day is overall better live, I have always loved their live performances over their studio sound.

Does anyone else think that Rusty James sounds like Before The Lobotomy?

I've heard like half these songs compared to BTL somewhere on youtube and I'm not seeing it with any of them.

All i can find are sketchy torrents and .rar files that im not very fond of :lol:

A .rar file isn't sketchy, it just means it's zipped to save space.

Rusty James is definitely the high point of the album. I'd give the whole thing a C+ overall I guess. But then again I'm not a huge superfan like some of you are so that's an opinion of a moderate Green Day listener.

I don't like Troublemaker either. In my opinion that's the weakest song on the album, maybe besides Let Yourself Go and besides Oh Love. But I really like the other songs and I definitely LOVE Stay the night.

If you're going into a new album comparing the songs to older songs by the artist/band, I think you should try to another method of taking in a new album.

Looked up the chords to both and the are for the most part the same chords

This is a pretty good assessment. Here is my best to worst ranking:

Rusty James

Carpe Diem

Fell For You

Nuclear Family

Stay the Night

Kill the DJ

Loss of Control

Angel Blue

Let Yourself Go

Sweet 16

Oh Love

Troublemaker

Looked up the chords to both and the are for the most part the same chords

Well I'm not a guitarist, I hear songs in terms of melody more than anything.

Unpopular opinion here, hahah. I feel like 21CB is a thousand times better than Uno!. It was a good album, though; Lyrically, it is my least favorite one, I must say. Overall, I'd give it a 6.5/7 out of 10.

sweet 16 is by FAR the best song for me! the 2nd part of troublemaker after the solo is fucking GREAT to and the solos the best on the album so idk about all the hate.. the lyrics arent good though i understand that.

just a great album in general 8.5/10 for me!!!

i know DOS will be my favorite though!

John, are you some kind of comedian? There are a lot of songs on the album, I just mentioned the songs which are not that good. I guess that's just ok to mention those. I really love this album but, like on each album, here are a few weaker songs, too.
