I do not like Jason White :ermm:

I kind of agree. I respect him as a musician and person, but I will never think of him as an official member. Sorry Jason.

Don't know if this is an unpopular opinion or not but, I don't like anything pre-Dookie.

Good. Anything pre-Dookie doesn't like you either :P

Haha to be fair, there are a "few" good songs on Kerplunk! Just never really cared for it...

I was listening to No Pride the other day and never realized how amazing it is. The lyrics are incredibly written, and the way some of the lines ironically contradict each other is great. I think it is in their top 5 best songs tbh.

She's a Rebel is in my top 10 Green Day songs. Is that bad? :ermm:

It's in my top twenty. Solidarity, sister.

How many songs are in their entire catalog? I'm not sure how exclusive a top 20 is, exactly. :lol:

At this point, studio albums include 138 songs, so it's still pretty exclusive. :lol:

Well that made me feel ill.

The demo version of 99 Revolutions is where it's at. I can kind of understand why Billie liked it so much based on that. Obviously the studio version sucked the life out of it, but that bridge is still epic.

I don't think a single Trilogy song is in my top twenty, but that one comes close. :wub:

I really want to make a top 20 now, because I think Stay the Night, Lazy Bones and X-Kid are contending for a spot, surprisingly.

I just deleted 5 Dos songs off my phone, I feel like a horrible person :(

Some collector you are.

I don't think Warning was ever bashed or looked down upon, it just wasn't as successful as their other albums. Correct me if I'm wrong though, I wasn't on the internet when Warning came out

Was there even an internet back then?

Chris Burney looked like this when Bowling For Soup released their best album:

Just saying :P

Please tell me he has lost weight since.

No, people rode horses and fought with bears whilst drunk and naked. Oh, the good old days when men were men and bears were bears and Green Day made songs about other topics than Makeout Parties.

Trying to figure out why my list is made of 253 songs. And I don't even consider re-recordings and Depression Times. It may take a while :P

Edit: Nevermind, you didn't count the unofficially released tracks in the final 228. Btw, if you include Depression Times, what about The Angel And The Jerk?

I make it 161 officially released songs (originals + covers) on studio albums:

19 + 16 + 14 + 14 + 18 + 12 + 13 + 18 + 37 = 161

Though I guess the three songs on ISH and 14 on Shenanigans would make it 178, but they're technically compilation albums!

Thanks, now I have this in my head.

It's been so long since I listened to GD regularly that it would take me a hell of a long time to think of a list, because I think I've forgotten about a lot of faves :ninja:

I like Drama Queen :lol: The lyrics are stupid, but it has kinda nice feeling in it .. a bit retro or something. And the melody is nice.

I prefer Adam's cover of it. :ninja: Partly because there are no lyrics. :P

I think I've seen almost every song off the Trilogy being listed here as someone's favourite or being at least liked by someone else. What if they released 18 songs instead of 37? Don't you think that we would have missed something? Judging by GDC members' taste, yes.

37 is better than 18, man ;)
