UNICORN VOMIT Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 That's hard - maybe a little boy named train or sex drugs violence - but I do like parts of each song. & she is a great track. Still right at home in the setlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 My least favorite is 21 Guns, come at me. I don't think it's so unpopular - or at least it's among my least favorites too. I don't particularly dislike it but don't enjoy it either. I'm rather annoyed if it comes on the radio - don't need to hear it anymore. Maybe I'd tolerate it live, there would be more energy and I'd probably be so overjoyed that I wouldn't mind anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libertine Angel Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I like 21 Guns - it's definitely not one of my favourites, but it's good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DookieLukie Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 21 Guns kind of blows 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaïs. Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 My three least favorite would have to be Wild One, Troublemaker and A Little Boy Named Train, for reasons I and others have laid out many a time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take them over the three I listed any day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least their guitars will wake a baby, and the lyrics are cringey in a teenage-boy way and not an "Oh god Billie has lost it" way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Chin for a Day Posted January 16, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2015 My least favorite is 21 Guns, come at me. I always have room for a great anthem.

DookieLukie Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 Mmmmm yes. Perfect stadium call and response/lighter-waving song. I prefer the live version as well: 21 Heyooos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anaïs. Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 You guys just don't want to admit that you dun goofed with your Trilogy hate Nah, I genuinely prefer anything from their early days to the worst of the Trilogy. The best of the Trilogy is clearly better than the 39/Smooth era, but not the three I mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chin for a Day Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 hell yes. Hey-oooohhhh's forever tbh. Probably an unpopular opinion but I don't mind all of Billie's "heeyyy-oh"-ing one little bit. I don't mind them either. Concerts are supposed to be fun and all the hey oh's may be stupid and childish, but their fun in person. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayonaise Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I always have room for a great anthem. The lyrics are poignant, the vocals beautiful and it is one of the best live tracks ever. It's just my personal least favorite. I don't think its their overall worst song. There's MUCH worse songs they've made. (Although for me it's down there) When I first heard it, I had mixed feelings. Now every time I see it being #2 on the "Best Green Day Songs" list on TheTopTens.com I want to jump off a bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maid Meringue Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 I honestly don't have any least favorites. I have "least listened to" because I don't have the time to listen to full albums anymore, but one doesn't necessarily mean the other. btw Sex, Drugs and Violence is great if you let it grow on you! It's like a sticky, infectious cyst that gets stuck in your head forever (just like the Beej himself). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Take Back, Nightlife and Rest, starting at the worst. Though Rest and Rotting can switch places sometimes. They're all different for Green Day so makes sense I suppose. I tend to like their more different sounding songs a lot though Laughing at all the people liking Strangeland, Sweet Children, and Best Thing In Town more than songs that weren't recorded with a potato. This , and not only that they must've been written when they were like 14 and it shows. I like them for the isn't it cool/cute to hear how their songwriting started out and what they sounded like recording on the spur of the moment on a tiny budget and turns out it wasn't bad factor, but I couldn't rate them above any of their other songs. Except maybe I Want To Be Alone. I always have room for a great anthem. The lyrics are poignant, the vocals beautiful and it is one of the best live tracks ever. Yes! I also remember it feeling really new and different when it first came out because of the falsetto (it's crazy how used to it I am now when at first it sounded so novel), and also the cool sounding part right at the beginning that's repeated after the guitar solo which is very sadly cut out in the music video and on the radio. So I don't really get complaints that it's boring etc. It's a great song. hell yes. Hey-oooohhhh's forever tbh. Probably an unpopular opinion but I don't mind all of Billie's "heeyyy-oh"-ing one little bit. I am also pro-hey-ohh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mykee Mexx Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Why She, may I ask? Sure you may ask, but I won´t be able to give you an accurate answer. Especially for you I just listened to it again. Just to find out, it´s not that bad anymore, I just don´t relate to it in any way. Okay, I shall take it off of my worst-list... OH, She is brilliant. I just can't deal with the lyrics of Platypus. Last of the American Girls is ok and Kill the DJ is great if you can ignore the lyrics. Haha, I mostly ignore the lyrics, I can´t cope with the melody of Kill the DJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
