"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? Still loving it...and them!

Color (Me) Stupid Geek Age: - Gender: - Posts: 250	January 9th, 2006 at 06:11pm I found out they existed with AI (stfu). I bought the album before the Boulevard of Broken Dreams craze started cause a friend of mine told me they were amazing. And so I did. I didn't like it much at first, but grew on me and I really got obsessed when I started buying all of their albums and did a project on them for my spanish class. I can't remember the last time I listened to another band. I've NEVER heard a Green Day song on the radio here. NEVER. I barely ever watch television, so I can't really say they've been overplayed cause at least here they haven't. So. Yeah. Over a year, I've gone from not knowing who they were to being passionately in love with ever single one of their songs

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
noone_really Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie Age: - Gender: - Posts: 39	January 10th, 2006 at 09:15am I get worried that they might just.... what's the word... you know... like they did with Dookie and Insomniac. AI's just become way too popular and people are expecting so much from them that they might... that word. Meh. I don't make sense. And I think they're overdoing it with the movie. That's probably the one thing I won't be looking forward to.... And I flip out everytime I see them on tv (but not when I see AI-era videos because I've already seen those one too many times...) because they rarely ever show/play any of Green Day's stuff here. So... Yeah. When insomnia strikes I watch MTV to try and catch When I Come Around or Basketcase or Macy's Day Parade (only videos I've ever seen being played here).... Nwahaha. And... I'm a new-ish fan (copy-paste Color (Me) Stupid's story minus spanish class project)

SARAnade King For A Couple Of Days Age: 34 Gender: Female Posts: 2228	January 11th, 2006 at 07:39pm RockNRollHighSchool: i still kinda get excited but, I usually switch teh station everytime Green Day comes on with new stuff but with old stuff its like wooo!!!!! I get all excited. I still respect american idiot and I don't listen to it often but sometimes I take it out of the dust and listen to it. my thoughts exactly except i dont usually switch the station..a matter of lazyness i guess! lol

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 i second that agreement

I like more songs than others...I still like Holiday, Extroardinary Girl, Whatername, Letterbomb, Homecoming and maybe Jesus of Suburbia.

=) Idiot Age: - Gender: - Posts: 836	January 11th, 2006 at 11:13pm Hmm....well yea. I am getting a bit tired of all the Green Day merchandise....it gets a little overwhelming at times. When your just like..."Oh My God, A Green Day watch?" But as popular or unpopular as they'll ever be...I'll love them. And actually, every teenie or prep I know thinks Billie Joe is ugly. So, I don't really have a problem with the "Billy-Jo" loving teenies.
