Beerjeezus Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I don't think it's ugly but pretty much all longshot art posted on instagram was better or at least more interesting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Wretched & Divine Posted February 17, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2019 Not to get too deep, but in making my Insta post for Billie's birthday earlier I realised he was honestly the only positive adult male role model I ever had in my adolescent years. I mean, I had other male celebrities I liked obviously, but none I connected with in anywhere near the same way. There's a lot of unresolved trauma surrounding my father abandoning me but I always had Billie. I just wanna hug him and say thanks 😭 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post maryjanewhatsername Posted February 20, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2019 Just discovered the "Stay the Night" acoustic off Demolicious and um I am OBSESSED. slightly sick sounding Billie that was either recorded on a phone or a potato is just mesmerizing for me. GOD I love this band and I love this man 😭 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 One time I thought that Billie Joe got married to Tre if only dreams could come true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryjanewhatsername Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 While I was rolling pizza dough for 4 hours today and listening to our boys, I thought about Billie's teeth changing and how it changed the sound of his singing between the albums. I noticed a definite difference between Warning and American Idiot. Before AI, Billie kinda had a bit of a lisp. Does anyone know when he had dental operations and when? I'm curious as to the timeline of these and how they affected his music! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious as to the timeline of these and how they affected his music! The two biggest ones were around 2002 (pre Pop Disaster Tour) and the end of 2016. Not sure how much of an impact it had on his singing though. His biggest lisp was in Fell for You. I'd say the change between Warning and AI was him sounding less congested. I doubt dental surgery would have anything to do with that though. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I noticed more in the earlier albums like Insomniac (been binging lately!) that he has a tiny lisp/congestion. I don't know if dental surgery would help with stuff like that either, but I did notice around those times a different sound from him. I might be nuts though!

Popular Post Hermione Posted February 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2019 I've always thought something about his teeth affected his singing on Warning too. It's very...spitty and a faint lisp. Maybe the chipped front teeth did it? I don't know but it's different. But also I think he just changed his style of singing. He used to sing in a more bratty/shouty way and (whether consciously or unconsciously) kind of threw both his singing and speaking voice to make it sound lower. At some point he dropped that and let his naturally higher speaking voice come through and I think something similar happened with the singing, it became more natural sounding and less stylised. Warning was probably in the transitional period of that. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedundantIdiot Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Two random thoughts from me today. Firstly, when Rev Rad came out I loved all the interviews that GD did where they talked about the writing/recording process- and I'm looking forward to that when the next album comes out. Hopefully Billie will talk a bit about creating The Longshot. Secondly, the Liverpool vs Manchester United game was previewed on TV with the words "know your enemy" and Dad started singing KYE (if I can call it singing ). 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maryjanewhatsername Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Made my boyfriend appreciate Mike's vocals today, whether he was gonna accept it or not! ((spoiler he actually ended up really liking Mike's singing so it was a total success!)) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I can't believe it's almost been 15 years since the release of AI. I also can't believe I've been a fan for that long, time passes by so fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Day was the first band I ever got into and no one else has captured me the way they do. Although Alkaline Trio and Matt Skiba are extremely close seconds!
