Green Day - Love 'em or Hate 'em

[~Hilton~]

No, it's not some new emo-esuqe song or album. (I'm not calling Green Day emo)


Now, you may not like Green Day or Billie Joe. But this video is really freaking great.


*may have to download it, its only a 1:32 video though.

I think i speak on behalf of the users who use the Music forum because every time green day has come up EVERYONE has said the the old is better than the new.

Before seeing that video: Thought they were a bunch of idiots who disgraced the word "punk"

After seeing that video: Now think they've an even bigger bunch of idiots who disgrace the word "punk" several times over.

I really hate people who are like that. The new cd is not THAT different. Apparently Green Day have just become too popular to like. And I ******* hate it when if you say you like Green Day to someone they automatically assume: "YOU ONLY LIKE AMERICAN IDIOT YOU NOT A TRUE FAN lolllllol roflll YOU WATCH 2 MUCH MTV"

Or something like that.

Interesting seeing as they are more punk than most mainstream bands of nowadays. Got their start in East Bay / Gilman Street, like many other true punk bands. Sure, they arent 100% punk like older bands but I hate people that say **** like that.

I didnt say that, i am not saying that people are not true fans or whatever, i personally am angry at Green Day for allowung there music to become mainstream.

What ever that mohawk guy did must have been pretty bad...

I hate Green Day. They suck. They're old too.

Egh. Everyone is getting out of hand.

Yes, Green Day's old stuff was better, but honestly, I cant blame them for changing. You need to change when you have been around for so long. There are only so many songs about jacking off, getting dumped and being lazy that you could possibly sing. Sure, I dont listen to new green day (and I hate those who didnt even know they were a band before AI) but I can actually respect what they are doing. I dont recall them ever even saying their new stuff is punk anyway, not that it matters because argueing what genre something is is stupid. Dookie will always be their best album, and my favorite album, but they still deserve to be around. Target your anger twards radio which has American Idiot on repeat 24 hours a day. Twards the kids who arent even aware there is pre-american idiot material yet still claim they are huge fans. Not twards people who just plain like them.

By the way, musicians get mad at stupid fans all the time. I saw on youtube Thom Yorke saying to an excesivly screaming woman 'shut up you stupid **** right in the middle of a song-- and just kept singing.

Hate Greenday. Overplayed, overrated.

[Cyvox]

Greenday are nothing but a bunch of sell outs.
They used to be an amazing pop punk band.
New album.. They totally changed their style of music to fit in with the current
scene/craze purely for profit. They didnt really care that they would lose a lot of fans..
