It is catchy and I do like the verses for SD&V quite a lot but the lyrics in that chorus are a bit dumb tbh. I kind of get it even if I do still like the song as a whole

how is it dumb?

I agree he is a very good back up vocalist, but as a lead singer, I just don't find his voice pleasant.

I agree. But I do think his voice fits perfectly for "Nobody Likes You"

I just think it's kinda dumb. I think I get what it's trying to do by contrasting a life of sex, drugs and violence with a life of education but idk. It feels they just wrote those lines to try and make it rhyme but it doesn't really work. It's definitely the weaker part of the song. I actually like the verses a lot though. The lyrics and melody of the verses are really good and I really like the line "I took a wrong turn at growing up and it's freaking me out".

I like the trilogy but I definitely think there are a lot of legitimate problems and criticisms of it, largely with the lyrics and some songs that are pretty weak or limited musically

I don't even really dislike it that much. I just think it could be better and the verses are stronger than the chorus.

I mean, it's a trilogy of albums. Some songs are bound to have some problems either lyrically or musically

You’re making a lot of assumptions and sweeping generalizations about people you don’t even know.

It does when there's a disagreement in every damn thread on a daily basis.:lol:

Seriously though, come on guys. I get that this is the unpopular opinions thread and there's bound to be disagreements, but there's really no need to drag this particular disagreement on. This thread is for Green Day opinions, not GDC opinions.

Angry GDC Guy™ happened.  
Back on topic: I see a lot of people saying Revolution Radio is one of RevRads weaker songs, but I think it's absolutely amazing. Love it as much as Bang Bang and it's definitely top 5 for me (on RevRad).

Insomniac is a raw diamond. If Jesus Christ Supermarket was a thing, the amount of goodness inside of it would make the universe to implode.

A glimpse of it could be the 2015 live versions of Stuart and the ave. That's is a sweet solo

I want to go to the alternative universe where JCS is the thing :(

I understand you're saying most of this thread being related to the trilogy, in the way that liking it is unpopular and that's too bad, but even if I'm a trilogy lover and could listen to those albums any time:

1) I don't see that in this thread people only speak about the trilogy, and in the same terms (if this is what you meant by "lacking variety" : variety of subjects, and variety of arguments on this particular matter; unless you meant variety of music like others understood);

2) I don't see only people disliking all or part of the trilogy here;

3) and even if I generally don't agree with the reasons of hating the trilogy, I won't declare that somebody else's reasons are so fucking stupid. I wouldn't accept someone saying this of my reasons of loving these albums.

I don't agree some songs are bound to have problems just because it's a trilogy. They didn't even keep all the songs they had before recording. Personally, I have my favorites on the trilogy but I like all the songs the way they are. Can't think of one song that would have a problem.

Apparently Green Day considered naming Insomniac that

Edit: A quote from Billie: "One regret? Insomniac was going to be called 'Jesus Christ Supermarket'. 'JCSM' is a much better title. Oh well.."

What a shocker not everyone likes every single thing a musician puts out doesn’t mean they’re bad fans or close minded
