Guest Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Ah man I just loved the musical so much. Then again, I'm a fan of all things over-blown and grandiose and sentimental when it comes to Green Day so the musical is right up my alley.

WhiteTim Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I love how they started Holiday on the musical 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaïs. Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I love how they started Holiday on the musical I like the bass intro, but I think I prefer the album intro; launching right into the song gives it more of an immediate, in-your-face feel, which fits as it's the most political/preachy song on the album.

DTH Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hm... musical voices often sound somewhat artificial to me and tend to exaggerate or weaken songs, and create too much drama. I find it especially annoying when they transform original, rather strong songs into wish-wash music... couldn't have said it better! there are few people that are considered "great singers" that i like. i like voices that are "true" and have some kind of rawness to them. voices that are distinctive. early bob dylan, joe strummer, mark knopfler, john fogerty, phil ochs, jesse michaels... or to mention a female singer as well: patti smith. that's why i pretty much dislike billie joes attempt to sing "clean" on the trilogy... you know whats the worst? all those shitty pop pseudo punk bands whos singers all sound the same: high, terrible american, whiny voices... urgh. simple plan, all time low and so on... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 ^ the thing is, I know I heard it in concerts and I know I liked it, I just never got around to obsessively playing it 24/7 - so whenever people talk about it I just nod sagely and pretend I totally know what they're on about.
