End Of The World Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Missing You could have been a good choice for the third single of Trè, after the unlucky and meaningful X-Kid and the nostalgic The Forgotten. If you think about, Missing You has all the characteristics to be a potential hit: - Catchy as hell; - Radio-friendly lyrics; - Fuckin' good bass riff in the bridge. Decision like not releasing this song made the Trilogy unsuccessful and full of "secret beautiful songs" to discover only if you buy the album. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it definitely has radio friendly lyrics, but I fail to see how someone on the other page says it has generic lyrics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 Look out guys, there's more Trilogy Bashing in that new interview that's posted. Billie starts to name songs but stops after "Kill the DJ" because either he couldn't think of any titles or he just didn't even want to talk about those records. Maybe both reasons. The interviewer does say the new album is like Idiot and Breakdown, but 'compact' like the individual Trilogy records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick. Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 I really think I like the trilogy overall more than Revolution Radio. Feels crazy to be saying that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post St. Jonny Posted December 28, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 28, 2016 Missing You is great! I like every song on Tre, that is a golden album to me. That song is well put together, with the drum fills, bass lines and very relatable lyrics. Was very good live too, it may very well return to the set someday! Love when he sneaks in that subtle "and I'm a fuckin' disaster", pleases my ears immensely. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Seagull Posted December 28, 2016 Share Posted December 28, 2016 They should play Trilogy songs live. So many great songs and they keep playing the overplayed songs all the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not surprising. You're much more likely to find more good songs from 2 hours of material than 45 minutes. I definetely think that RR is better than each individual record but as a whole, there's probably more good songs from the entire trilogy than RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was just pretty clear that Billie didn't want to dwell on it, and maybe that's what I was thinking. He mentioned one song in response to whatever the question was and then moved forward. Good ole' Billie, never wanting to look backward (except in song form. He does that ALL the time. :)) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Listening to Sex, Drugs & Violence and I thought that line was " English weapon science" not English, math and science which is way cheesier. I think I'd rather sing it the way I thought it was before. Great song anyways, as with pretty much all the songs on Tre! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Seagull Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Sex, Drugs & Violence is my favorite Trilogy song. The song is so underrated it's crazy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Jonny Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 I agree with you! The Tre! album solo's are really great, they always catch my ear and keep me rockin' out! Whole album is massively underrated. This song is phenomenal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Dude Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 I'm STILL kind of waiting for the promotional videos for the Trilogy. We got two official videos from Uno which was probably all they were going to do anyway. I was SOOO excited when "Stray Heart" came out because for a moment there I thought they could promote it without Billie and everything would turn out alright while he was away. But then Stray Heart went nowhere. We did get The Forgotten, but it wasn't even released as a single, despite a video and tie-in with Twilight (ugh). So many things went wrong there, but the wrongest was getting involved with sparkly fairy "vampires". But the song was good and 4:59 of pasty fairies are better than 2 hours and 1 minute of them for sure. So that was alright. X-Kid is one of my favorite Green Day songs EVER, so I was excited about it being released. I thought surely it would salvage some kind of success out of the wreckage. It could do it! But then we got a cassette tape spinning for a music video and I nearly went over the edge of joking, died of a broken heart!!!!!!!!! I tried to pretend that it was cool, that is was avante guard. But it wasn't. It was garbage. The song deserved better. And the years go by. It's where that I live until I die. Waiting on what could have been from the Trilogy, a truly great experience made by a band in turmoil. It could have been marketed right. It shouldn't have had vampires or tape decks. If they had just stuck to the formula they laid down in the masterpiece "Oh Love" formula they'd STILL be promoting this beast. Naked girls. Rock N Roll. Girls named Lady Cobra. CANDY APPLE RED!!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me, Still Breathing is the continuation of Lazy Bones. Both songs are so honest and personal. In LB Billie describes his struggle with his addiction, that he starts to realize that things are falling horribly apart, but he doesn't want to (or can't) change them yet. In SB, he looks back on this fight and can finally say that he's still alive - although it could have turned out the other way, easily. Those two songs in a setlist together would make me so sad and so happy at the same time. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I'd love the live version even more...it's a bummer it wasn't included on Demolucious. The album version is ok but suffers from the usual trilogy imperfections. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love that too, but even during that one performance recorded on Cuatro! he mangled and truncated the second verse because he was so emotional about that song. If there's one trilogy song Billie doesn't want to play, I think it's the one that brings him back to hell he's been through. There's a reason they never played it live. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I noticed too and completely understand if he doesn't want to bring this back. I admire that he writes stuff like that and puts it out on records, it has to take a lot of courage imo.
