Here. So what are y'all opinions on it?

Oh, and can people who just hate Green Day not bother, because we don't care.

Anyhow, in all honesty, I think it sounds alright. Not brilliant, but it sounds good enough for me to have faith that the album will be worth me buying.

what do you all reckon?

I swear the lead singer's voice has gotten higher and higher pitch the longer the band goes on.

He'll never get as high pitch as Rob Halford though.

Never.

Swallow your sugar pills, inject your saline, breath in some hydroxide mist and have a nice day.

It feels to me as if they took a step back with this song. It doesn't have the depth as American Idiot and it reminds me for of their Warning album. Both are great albums... but I don't hear anything that makes me want to pick up the album. I dunno, I like it but I don't kinda thing...

It's alright. I like it enough to tap my feet to it, but I don't like it enough to actually go out and pay for it.

I was thinking this all through the song. Maybe they're going for that, or maybe they're trying for a miup of all the different albums? Now THAT I would like to see.

Both are great albums... but I don't hear anything that makes me want to pick up the album. I dunno, I like it but I don't kinda thing...

That's fair enough. I just really like Green Day, and have faith that the rest of the album will be good.

I am as well, and will probably check out the entire album before I make my final decision.

the video is pretty cool but the actual song seemed kind of generic. I like most of green days stuff, but I just wish they could change it up or something.

I only like Green Day's older songs. Their newer songs are just pure crap.

My opinions are so useless, I don't even listen to them.

Nice, I saw it on iTunes a while ago, but I havent bought it yet, since its jsut a single. ill probably buy it if they release it with an album, but it sounds a bit like most of their other songs, althoguh I do like it a bit. I havent listened to a greenday song for about a year now though, lol

Agreed. They've been a professional band for over 20 years and they've yet to improve upon their skill. They're playing the same generic shit in their 40s that they started playing in their 20s... it's almost shameful.

Makes me wonder if they even like playing their instruments, or if it's just something they do to make money.

lol... 'way back'.

I was a fan of Green Day 'way back' when they released Kerplunk and covered Operation Ivy songs. They had long gone the route of complete suck before American Idiot was released.

I'd consider Dookie their last good album. It was all down hill after that. And if I'm not mistaken, Dookie followed Kerplunk in release order, meaning they made 2, may 3 good albums counting the rerelease of two previous demos on one album (39 smooth happy slappy hours... or whatever it was called).

There where a couple of really good songs off that album. Shame they couldn't keep that type of drive going. Paper Lanterns is still a fav of mine.

Yes it was like warning and that is why it was less gay than American Idiot (what an appropriate title).

I agree. The second half of the song is much better. Lyrics leave a lot to be desired. But it sounds more like greenday and not that other boulevard stuff.

I like Green Day but it's a fairly uninspiring song.

I'll probably check out their new album anyway.

I'm glad to see they realized that American Idiot's style was shit.

Green Day sold out with their album "American Idiot" and I'm not paying in.
They used to be the shit back in the day!
