Billie performs best when he is drinking. I see a pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOE THE X-KID Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 I think Brutal Love to X-Kid is one of the strongest 5 song runs they've done on any album. Shame it drops off in quality after that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozoneplayer Posted March 29, 2015 Share Posted March 29, 2015 Personally, I find longview to be one of Green day's most overrated songs. Don't get me wrong, it's a good song, and it has a great bassline, but I definitely wouldn't say it's one of their best tracks, I wouldn't even put it in the top 10. I'd much rather listen to a song like No pride, The grouch or Castaway over it. Also, I personally think Insomniac kick's Dookie's arse overall. Once again Dookie's a near perfect album, but Insomniac is a little more consistent, and has much more of a kick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is true. The entire album was a trendsetter because they were singing about emotions and feelings everyone felt, but were afraid to say out loud. Here is an article that kind of describes the reaction to Dookie as a whole. But it does touch on Longview as well. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2014/01/31/how-green-day-s-dookie-defined-the-1990s-and-changed-music-forever.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayonaise Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 If one Green Day song could be instrumental, it's gotta be Makeout Party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armatage Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 When I Come Around >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Longview Longview Video >>>>>>>>>>>>>> When I Come Around Video That is the difference for me I actually like the video for When I Come Around much more. It's one of my fave videos to go to when I have nothing to watch on YT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 If one Green Day song could be instrumental, it's gotta be Makeout Party.Yes that would sound good. And it would have no lyrics, right?! However, I must admit that I like MP, especially the Demolicious version. It's a rare Trilogy song with some energy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billie Hoe Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 My favourite Video of all time is Walking Contradiction. .. is that even an unpopular opinion? Or just a random one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a rare Trilogy song with some energy. Oh, the Demolicious version was a big improvement. To be honest, I think MP is one of the better songs on Dos, only due to instrumentation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame it drops off in quality after that.It's not bad. The first two are definitely the best of those 5. But as for a five-song run? How about the last five on AI?

The Disappearing Boy Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Personally I think the first 9 on AI is a pretty good run.Or even the first 13 Yeah I would say that pretty much any 5 song run on AI will beat any 5 song run on the Trilogy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayonaise Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The first 5 songs on Nimrod and Insomniac are a great 5 song run. I would say the same for Warning, but I was never a Fashion Victim guy. I mean, not a bad song, just not my cup of tea. I could listen to it, but when it's over I'd like to move onto something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Angel Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Yeah, Fashion Victim is a good song but one of the weakest on Warning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
