I could be totally wrong and that's not bow guitar, but it kinda sounds what i imagine it would if you use a bow over all the strings as a chord! Yes, I listened and I agree with you. I think your 2:04 is what I said 2:06, close enough. But yes, I think you are right on the other times as well. It is easy to hear if you have someone tell you where it is.

Lol, since one person has agreed with me I will assume that is the bow guitar then It sounds frigging awesome btw. Love that effect! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOE THE X-KID Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 My only complaint about this album is that it's too short Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that effect! I looked up Jimmy Page playing it and the video I watched was a solo. It sounded pretty awful, but in the context of a song, it is a very cool effect.

.Holly Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I have to say I'm completely rubbish at interpreting lyrics most of the time. I just wait for other people to give their opinions then I decide whether I agree.I think it's my total lack of a creative brain. But it's always super interesting to hear people's different interpretations. Also need to have a break from listening to the album! I didn't sleep well last night because it was just going round and round in my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Potter. Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Actually Youngblood is legitimately their best song since 2009. It's the exact type of song that Green Day excel at writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermione Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 On the subject of Youngblood's lyrics again, does anyone have any ideas about "Bleeding heart and the soul of Miss Teresa"? I think the meaning is something similar to Last of the American Girls about her caring a lot about causes/charities, but who or what is Miss Teresa?

The repetition of "youngblood" throughout the song is infuriating. And to think some people found KNE repetitive, it was nothing compared to this!

That Dude Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 On "Say Goodbye" it sounds like there's another line in there but no one has lyrics to it. Right after "Kindred spirits sing for the sick and suffering" (starting at 0:51 seconds) there are backup vocals saying something but I can't figure it out. Somebody figure it out!

Harry Potter. Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Another thing about Youngblood is that for years they've been trying to capture that youthful energy, and on that song not only do they succeed, but they make it seem effortless.

Chin for a Day Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 What is interesting about Youngblood is that for the most part, there is no gray area. People either love it or hate it. I don't really recall that kind of reaction out of one of their songs before. I have no idea what that means, but it is interesting. ON a positive note, I'm in love with every other song on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say I hate it by a long shot though. Not like a track like Nightlife. Ugh. I'm really loving Too Dumb to Die today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Listening to it now. I'm reading the lyrics this time. I'm happy to say most of them are actually good. Not that I understand everything (that line about online shopping in Somewhere Now, wtf?) and not that some parts aren't word salad but the overall impression is good. Unpopular opinion: verses of Still Breathing are a little cliched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slash Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Still breathing is a song which some how I can relate to, its something different and its great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerjeezus Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Forever Now finally clicked with me! The finale oh my God. Say Goodbye and Troubled Times are both great musically and lyrically. Loving Outlaws more and more as well. This album will take a couple more listens to fully grow on me. I think it might end up being one of my favorites. (The way I feel about music can change a lot. I went from loving 21CB to hating it passionatelly to loving it again and I'm curious how I'll feel about RevRad after a while.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UNICORN VOMIT Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 4 hours ago, Scattered Wreck said: You are correct, GD has plenty of stand out silly tracks, but Youngblood is just seriously cringeworthy. The lyrics are so cringeworthy, I would put this song in the bottom 10 of GD songs ever. Musically, it is fun and catchy. Its not cringeworthy its dorky (its BJ all over) - & you call yourself BJ's biggest fan. 2 hours ago, Scattered Wreck said: Ok I can see that up until the fuck you I'm from Oakland part.
