My 3-year-old likes to get a ride out of me by telling me, "Billie Joe MY boyfriend!" when she knows that clearly he is mine. She has a crush on Egon from the Real Ghostbusters cartoon, so she obviously can't have both. Nevermind me being married to her dad, that's a minor technicality....

I think our husbands understand 😉

I don't get the dislike for KFAD. It's one of my favorite songs and I love seeing them play it live.:ga:

I think cause it's played every show for the last decade and more, and it's almost the same. It's mainly those who go to a lot of shows that get tired of it cause it is so long. But I personally love seeing it

Billie and Egon!!! Your 3yo is the most awesome 3yos ever!!! Fucking love Egon. "Hey Egon, remember that time you were gonna drill that hole in your head" says Spangler. "That would of worked if you didn't stop me" - Egon

To get a rise out of me, whenever Green Day comes on TV my girlfriend always talks about how big Billie's head is. She'll say "Look, it's big head Billie."

I think The Forgotten is a much better piano ballad than Last Night On Earth. :ninja: 

Years ago on this forum im pretty sure we were talking about how the lyrics in forgotten don't fit together as well as other songs and I kinda agree so I like LNOE better

but as far as piano things go Restless Heart Syndrome trumps all

Edit: ok i forgot about brutal love that one is good too but I mean if RHS the forgotten and LNOE got into a fight RHS wins

I love the lyrics of See the Light but it's a bit too stadium-y. When he goes "I-I-I, I just wanna see the light" it's impossible not to think of Kiss going "I-I-I, wanna rock and rock all night" :P 

you can fit "i wanna rock and roll all night" into the song perfectly NOW THATS ALL IM GONNA HEAR

Ha! Having kids is the biggest trip, is it not?! And here's the kicker, her first crush before either Billie or Egon: Dion Dimucci of Dion and the Belmonts fame. When she finally goes to preschool, the other kids are going to look at her like she's an alien :lol: I guess that's what happens when you grow up with parents who are totally out of the loop with most modern pop culture 😂

TAKE THAT BACK.

I remember saying if I won the Green Day @ your back yard contest then I would ask them to play nothing but different versions of KFAD:ga:

Mike is the better songwritter

slappy is the best EP

Words I might have ate is criminally underrated

I don't like she

stuck with me is my favorite single

haushinka is top 10

macys day parade is the most underrated single

give me novacaine is at most ok

little girl is top 5

the trilogy is my favorite set of albums because every listen is different to me

rev rad is ok

She's not! But she always does it when I'm watching them perform. She even did it when we saw them live! :lol:

How can you not like She.  Blasphemy

Little girl is fabulous

& although I dont agree regarding the trilogy - you are right - I feel the the trilogy is a different listen every time.

Yeah Rev Rad is OK but its a nice addition to my GD collection.  But Bang Bang is probably in my top 5 now.

I can take or leave Macys Day Parade tbh

Brutal Love isn’t piano led though so doesn’t count :D and I didn’t think of RHS but yeah that would top The Forgotten for me too.

Welcome to GDC! Nothing too unreasonable there, I agree about Words I Might Have Ate, Little Girl and the trilogy being great. How many songs has Mike written though, like 2 or 3? I don't think he's written enough to judge him as a songwriter against Billie.

Agree with Macy's Day Parade being an underrated single, I love that song. Haushinka though, I can take it or leave it. Probably my least favourite on Nimrod (although Nimrod is in my top 3 albums so it's not really an insult, lol)

I agree with Hermione in that I don't think Mike's written enough to judge against Billie, although I guess all songwriting is subjective, just like art or other written works. I personally love Billie's style, recurring buzz words and fancy metaphors and all :lol:

I like the song Rev Rad. Although it wouldn't be near the top end of my favourite GD songs list, I think it gets too much criticism and its a great live song.

I just finished listening to the whole album and I love it more every time I hear it. I’m even warming up to Outlaws. 😉 I think the music is outstanding but I would like the next album to be a bit more lyrically ambitious. RevRad has it moments but at other times I know he’s capable of better.

I think Rev Rad would be in the top end of my favourite GD songs. I don't really know why it's criticized, I actually love it!

Are you not expecting there to be a next album?
