Beth (wgaf_21Cool:
Well it's been about a year since American Idiot was released! Do you think your ... "feelings"... for lack of a better word... have changed at all? I remember for the first 6 months after the CD came out, I would freak out every time a song came on the radio or they preformed on TV I would tape it... now I usually change the station and half pay attention when they're on TV. What about you guys?


*sigh* yeah, i'm exactly the same, i used to flip out every time their songs came on or they were on tv, but now.....it's just so overdone. I've seen like every song on tv, the radio has killed some of them, and I've seen them live (it was fucking amazing!). So now there's like nothing new, its all old now. I have a feeling, though, that once they release their next cd i'll start flipping out again, but i do think that AI has been a bit overdone (but i can understand it, AI like took over, literally, and they worked their asses off for it so....)


i totally agree jimmy's kid


OMFGZ JIMMY!

just because they wear eyeliner they are emo? Whats so bad with being emo anyway, I never really got the concept. I don't get why everyone keeps putting labels on them when most people supposivly 'hate' labels here. I just think Green Day is Green Day I don't even bother to label them.


they label themselves (GD)

other than that Clap


Why even bother label themselves because everyone else is gonna call them something else anyway and thats where we get the 'Is Green Day really punk?' thread and stuff like that


but almost every interview billie always says how "punk" they are


yeah i've noticed that to. I dunno why he has to say it a million times if he truly thinks hes punk

I used to freak out too when anythign A.I. came on radio or T.V., now though, it's still good and I'll listen but it's not the same excitement. I love hearing older stuff though, because I'll freak out and be all 'Good grief there playing '_insert old Green Day song here_' no one ever plays this song!. woop!

When they get there new stuff out though, if it is the same theme as A.I. the media will kill it again.

Haha. the name "Emma Oldridge" Springs To mind.

In a way, even though I've liked them for years, I know that I've become more obsessed with them since American Idiot came out. I don't know what it is, really. I mean the only song I really like off American Idiot is JOS. So its weird..

Holy Hell,I'm a Teenie.:
yes. I can't stand it anymore...
I'm glad it's popular because it's super good but... I've been ignoring GD lately.

But I remember how in love with AI I was.
I miss it in a way... ah good times Wink

i flipout when they come on the radio, because its like a reflex now, but when old songs come on i flip out because im happy there not playing BOBD again. i still like some of their new songs but the older stuff is much better in my opinion. the other day i was telling my sister that i will be happy when the AI hype is over, because im tired of all the tennies and the radio stations only playing new stuff. i kinda want it to go back to the days when people , how do i put it, not that they didnt care about GD but that they werent as interested in them as other bands. im kinda afraid for the new CD to come out, im not sure why, probably because i wish they would make it like their old stuff but they probably wont because of the success of AI.

Yeah. Oh I really love American Idiot the album. Its great. But Ive always liked/loved Green Day, but after American Idiot came out, it kinda just reminded just how amazing they are.

I'm just sick and tired of the American Idiot insanity.

Well... When American Idiot came out I HATED Green Day. They kept beating blink-182. But around... May? Around May I came around. I dunno. They're not played AS much as they used to be... I don't change the station or anything.
