It's a beautiful song and I feel like it would have fit well on the Tre album of the trilogy. I listened to Tre yesterday and I hated the Forgotten, the chorus is so cheesy and the song seems half assed to me, When It's Time could have easily replaced it and I feel like lyrically WIT fits in better with the trilogy Im guessing because maybe it was too special to him and 80? I’m not sure it fit the vibe of the trilogy. I think it’s too happy/romantic for a bunch of albums about partying, cheating, drug use, and sad songs. But I agree about the forgotten. Never got into that song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They probably didn't put it on AI or 21st CB because they didn't think it fit, and then found an opportunity to use it with the musical. They couldn't really have put it on the Trilogy two years later, they already used it/released it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Uno has Oh Love and Sweet 16, which are definitely more romantic. Then Dos is all about the infidelity and Tre seems to be about redemption, which is why I think When It's Time would go good on there, it's kind of the "sorry, I fucked up" album in a way and in when it's time it gives off the vibe that at times Billie didn't really appreciate adrienne as much as he should have but now he's come around (😉) and I feel like the song would be closure in a sense 4 minutes ago, Hermione said: They did put When It's Time on the American Idiot musical album and released it as a single in 2010.

I agree it's a great song so I'm glad they did do something with it even if it isn't on a main album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there’s that, it’s not like a song that completely fell through the cracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk, just a theory. Personally, I just can’t separate it from it being a song he wrote very early on about when their relationship first started so I can’t see it fitting in the story of fucking up much later. But maybe I’d think differently if I didn’t know the story behind it or could separate it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 The part right after "The representative from California has the floor" in Holiday never fails to get me pumped up AF and I can't wait to hear it live again. Same goes for the song Revolution Radio. I've seen a fair share of people not really liking it but I absolutely love it. Instantly puts me in a good mood and I get a burst of energy from it!

Billie Hoe Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 I'm doing some research about drugs and it makes me wonder how many drugs Green Day actually took in their youth. We all know about cigarettes, alcohol, speed, weed, acid and prescription pills that Billie downed with alcohol until recently. In Geek Stink Breath he's singing about meth, but did he actually ever take it or was he writing from the perspective of someone else, like a friend or an acquaintance? Did they ever try other hard drugs heroin or take a step up from speed or ritalin and try cocaine? Did they try benzos like xanax, ecstasy, or other natural drugs like salvia and mushrooms? They always sound like they've lived through everything, but I'm sort of curious about what they've actually tried or not tried and what they continued to take more than once or twice.

MillenniumFan Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 As far as I know, Billie's definitely had cocaine, if not during the 90s (which I think he must have done also), then certainly during the writing and early promotion of the trilogy. If you look at some of the early performances, he actually looks like someone on coke too (see Irving Plaza 2012). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pouty bitch Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Wasn't there an interview from the mid-90s where Billie mentioned taking meth because it was cheaper than cocaine and there were a lot of meth factories near?🤔 I distinctly remember seeing that, but I can't seem to find it now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillenniumFan Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Yeah, not sure when, but I recall Billie talking about snorting meth, so I think he's definitely done that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
