Wow, do we really agree on something 100%?! Mind = blown.

What's your statistical ranking, just play count?

I put a lot of pointless work into giving each Trilogy song a numeric score/rating based on various aspects. Mainly lyrics, instrumental, and a sort of random "x" factor. This of course isn't completely statistical because it involved my opinions, but I ranked the songs using this method. When I go through the list I made, they were perfectly ranked based on my tastes, so it was a success.

Sounds like a hell of a lot of effort to put into the Trilogy. Care to share more specifics? I'm intrigued based on the fact that we have an identical top five.

What else would you like to know?

What else would you like to know?

What were your bottom five, and your favourite song based on lyrics and favourite based on music alone?

I think top 5 from the trilogy has to be: Brutal Love, Stay The Night, Nuclear Family, Rusty James, and maybe Stray Heart.

Just based on a combo of lyrics, melodies, and just general impact on GD's catalog, those songs stand out to me, except for maybe Stray Heart which is more of a guilty pleasure i suppose.

My Trilogy Top 5 is Brutal Love, Lazy Bones, X-Kid, Stay the Night, and Missing You

X-Kid, Stop When the Red Lights Flash, Stray Heart, Angel Blue, and Rusty James

Brutal Love, Rusty James, Lazy Bones, Angel Blue, and Drama Queen/Wild One (can't choose which one)

American Idiot would have been better if Extraordinary Girl wasn't on it.

I really liked 21st Century Breakdown as an album.

Brutal Love is okay. While it does showcase BJA's above average vocal talent, it does so at the expense of being too long, awkwardly structured, and not particularly original.

The best part of Brutal Love is the drop into the coda. The first section is decent but nothing special, then that falling melody comes in and it's just the best release of tension in any Green Day song other than Restless Heart Syndrome.

Yeah, the build up with all the false releases before it finally drops into the solo is like the best thing they've ever done. With Uptight are you referring to the really long verse going into the first chorus?

Green Day is very good at building tension in their songs. BOBD, Before the Lobotomy, Letterbomb, Brutal Love, Panic Song, Restless Heart Syndrome, among many others have great energy build ups. Brutal Love definitely ranks high among that group
