Yes great live, although I wouldn't put it in FN's league and I haven't seen most of the others live for comparison 2 minutes ago, Jane Lannister said: Hermione you betrayed us, I was just going to say Hermione wouldn't hate on Bang Bang I agree there are other great songs on the album and I've been enjoying them more because they were less overplayed but bb has grown on me again after some time. I like how fast and punk it is and the unusual structure makes it stand out. Fast/simpler songs like that always end up lower down on the list for me, just the way it goes. American Idiot goes the same way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenDayTheory Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Hate the fact that everyone hates Youngblood It's a fun song and it takes us to a break from a dramatic album to just dance. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngblood is so silly. I remember listening to it for the first time, thinking it was hilariously bad and laughing so hard. It's the only song I listened to again on its own before putting the album on repeat. It's fun live, but each time I was like "omg Billie, is this necessary????" but crowds seem to love it and jump like crazy so yeah it was fun in the end even though there are better songs that I'd prefer. It would work in a cartoon. Someone should mix it into some footage from Tom and Jerry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hermione Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I love Youngblood and I don't even think it's silly, more like pleasantly lighthearted and just totally sweet and fun. I don't get why it's disliked. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libertine Angel Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Youngblood is just so bad lyrically though, I think everything on the album besides Bang Bang is pretty weak in writing but that's just bad, and at the O2 it was followed by 2000LYA which felt to me like saying "have a love song, and now have one for the same person I wrote 25 years ago that's a fuckton better".

Popular Post AmyxLongview Posted September 1, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted September 1, 2017 I remember reading a review where Billie compared Youngblood to Last of the American Girls because they're both about Adrienne. He said that LOTAG is long in the tooth and he likes Youngblood better. I love Youngblood 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing against that song, it's the "are there any old school fans here tonight" that does it. Because yes, they are and they want to hear deep cuts not 2000LYA ffs. Fake advertising. I actually like that song, but I get so hyped up when he asks and this always lets me down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I despise the song, but it is one of the best lines he has ever written. How ironic. 5 minutes ago, Jane Lannister said: 2000LYA peeves me live.

So to the majority of the audience it is a deep cut. 7 hours ago, WhiteTim said: Youngblood is just a fun lighthearted song not every song has to be epic I disagree but am really glad you are safe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
