Green Day tonight

[punch]

Oh well, a band does a political song so they are fags.

I guess you guys must hate just about 80% of musicians then.

You all must only have Toby Keith in your cd players all day.

Actually, yeah, you nailed it.

I hope you're kidding.

Seriously though... normally politically charged songs don't bother me much, if at all. This particular song just stands out because it is so blatant. "America, you're a bunch of media brainwashed idiots, and you have stupid rednecks for leaders." It's a shame, because musically, the song is actually kind of catchy.

I kind of like 80's era "hair-band" rock because very little of it is politically charged one way or the other. They just sang about partying, drinking, having sex, motorcycles, and rock-n-roll...that's right... they actually wrote songs about how much they rocked!

The first part of that comment couldn't be further from the truth for a majority of "America". Look at what happened with gas prices a few weeks ago. People see things in the media and panic. Todays media really has become a problem. When was the last time they actually reported something good? Instead, they tell you about something bad at 5, 6, 9, and 10... There is a good reason I don't watch the news anymore.

ok....so it the song is really about the "big bad media", then why is the song titled "American Idiot"?

[Sleeper]

Calling them 'commies' is just ignorant.

COMMIES!!!!!

actually, i like the melodies more than the words. i think better songs could be written with the same melodies.

isn't billy joe almost 40? time to ditch the eyeliner and nail polish.

Just to piss you off I'd guess.

Green day has sucked after the first album. All of thier songs sound the same. The fags voice is annoying

Then they come out with American Idiot to get noticed? I notice they suck


" Oh wake me up when September ends"
