So what do you think of the song?

I love it. It makes me think of old, sad memories (which is kinda nice). And sad fanfics. And I also like Green Day.

The music video is actually okay (not really relating to the song, though)

But we're not talking about the music video. We are talking about the song.

Well, I bought the American Idiot album in December last year, and that was one of my favourite songs on the disc!
But I think the lyrics are a little TOO repetative.
Just when you think the song is over...the repeat at least half of it again!
But I still like it none-the-less.

I loved it! I was really sad and I'm a su**er for sad songs. They seem to soothe me.

What a sad music video. T_T

The song was nice, but like Endoh-chan said, it was rather repetative.

why can't people just make a "Music Thread" because yea its a good song, but so are thousands more and that would mean thousands more threads.

but as i said its ok, not great.

It's very repetitive, and I just find it too slow....they sing it all at the same level. Plus, the video, whilst emotional and sad, had acting gaps that were ridiculously long, and disrupted the enitre song. No wonder some music channels chose to edit those bits out of the video.

Although I like Green Day, this was a disappointment to me.

Well the video does relate because their happy fun fun days are over now, and now the guy is joining the army because they need money (i assume) and can't go on living so carelessly.

As for the song, i like it, a bit repetitive but still good.

One interesting thing about their last CD.......it was a last ditch attempt to hold the group together after a long while of arguing and not speaking to each other. According to a documentary, they poured all their insecurities into their songs (eg. Billy Joel wrote Boulevard Of Broekn Dreams because he feels all alone, and unable to share his songs with the rest of the group).

It was said that if this album, with all the political statements and heartfelt songs, didn't do well, then the group would have permanently broken up under the strain.

Haha it's the opposite with me, absoulutely everyone in my class likes hip hop and rap and I absoulutely can't stand it... they play it all the time!

Yes, Green Day is good, I have to admit, but some of the songs sound the same, so I get easily tired of it or bored. The songs seperately sound good, but when you listen to the CD, the songs compare the same.
