Billie Joe interview in France, May 2009 (With Subtitles)

[hinde64]

0:47 Twenty onest century breakdown? C'est une blague?

[AmyJoeRamone]

0:48 TWENTYONEST Century Breakdown?! WTF?! 

[whatsername9716]

French Much????

[bratzdirector]

BILLIE JOE+ FRENCH DUB= Shit

[UnitedStatesofHannah]

joesph olson is ginger kids

[TheBestBoyOnEarth]

I'm french, so I understood it all, but I made me cringe when I heard Twenty One'st Century Breakdown instead of Twenty First Century Breakdown.

[UnitedStatesofHannah]

HI BILLIE JOE

[ZixZept]

Damn, I'm French and my English ain't perfect but the guy talking should learn it... "twentyonest", "Grrin Déy" and "no yor énemi" c'mon dude, try a little harder. And they also should use subtitles rather than speaking French over the original voice in the interviews. I guess that's why most of the French people suck as hell when they try to speak English :/

[holidayparis1]

@ZixZept UP! i'm french but i speak fluently English because of origins and school... But anyway, I heard this guy and I was like: WTF! American Idiôôôôôôt! No Yar Ennemi! Twentionecenturribrekdown! Sucks! Why just don't they keep Billie's beautiful voice??

[aie1132]

I speak French (I'm from Switzerland) but I prefer speak English. For the Green Day interview I prefer watch original in English because in French they have a bad pronunciation they say Grrrrren (with de "r" very... Awful) Dey. And when it's a French interview, I can't hear the real voice of Billie Joe, Tre and Mike T.T

And I have a question... Some people say that Billie Joe speaks French and other people say no... Who is right?

[cutibabie]

@aie1132 ahaha! I'm agree with you, the pronunciation of green day is so awful ! But, sorry, I don't know the answer, but if you got it one day, tell me ;)

[aie1132]

The answer is no. :) But he can say "Moi" (me) and "Merci" (thank you) :D

Green Day Forever :)

[TheGreenOreos]

I hear only  "you know" ;)

[iheartbilliejoe999]

NOOOO Billie Joe's sexy voice has gone :P lol

[ATLeo10]

J'adore Green Day :D

[Iopbejito]

Billie ?? His name is not Billie... His name is Billie Joe ! B-I-L-L-I-E J-O-E ! His mother is from the south, she called him Billie Joe !

[learntofly55]

what he said "twentyonest"?! WTF?! Ah.....I'm french but there..it sucks a lot

[irlfr]

twenty oinste ? lol did that guy ever learn english at school ?

[BJGreenDay95]

hahahhaha i love the simpsons part!

[TheJaymes1234]

cant billie joe speak french?

[Shenanigans07]

I hate French people. I hate the language. I hate the culture. I especially hate their women. =(

okay... a French girl I met broke my heart. bitch face. that's how racism starts =D a girl breaks a mans heart.

[Theoreticaly]

@Shenanigans07 So because you didn't get into a relationship with someone you met once, it's okay to be a racist douchebag?

[Shenanigans07]

@Theoreticaly

LOL I was joking. *points to the blatant mocking of racism*

but actually, I was IN a relationship with her for a year. she lived with me ffs. and yes. she has actually made me have a genuine hatred of those French frogs. tragic no? But hey, we're both clearly ignorant =D

[kurtcobain74nirvana]

hahaha BOULET ! " twentyonest century breakdown" apprendant a parler anglais !

[whatsername1313]

quhawsadbewfiurfvbqljehrfb jibberjabber.....CROSANT! muhhhaaha

[CherryBlackheart]

Je pense que c'est en francais parce-que c'est une émission de tv francaise, non ?

Enfin moi je n'ai pas besoins de sous-titre puisque je suis francaise ^^

J'aime bien cette interview, vive Green Day :)

[blueandpurpleful]

@CherryBlackheart d'accord :-)

[AVSGreenDay]

[softlyserenademe]

LEGENDS these guys are. living fucking legends. 

[MollieSummerx]

[tirashad]

God, cant get a thing! why didnt they use subtitles???

[pvszrox1997]

LOL i can actually understand this....bahahaha

[MariaLoveGreenDay]

is Billie joe's voice ?

[effzee]

The irony in the comments here is sublime - a bunch of half-literates foaming at the mouth because they bumped into a video at youdoob that isn't in english. He's discusing American Idiot and you dimwits are proving the point! The album is dedicated to all of you!

[ayandravbrito]

Guys, this "voice thing" happens all the time, with all languages. And there's a lot of interviews with Bilie Joe without "the voice", so, it's just watch them.

[TheOmegalomaniac]

Ma che cazz....perchè merda Billie parla francese???fanculo...

[breakdownidiot]

wtf, the french dude said "twenty ONE'st century breakdown" .... 

[breakdownidiot]

roflmfao! the funny french guy talking over billie HAHAHAHAHA

[ZiaValis]

Gaaaaaaawd please stop covering Billie's voice with that horrible "french-talking-man" ç________ç

[PAPerTURKeY]

in alot of interviews blillie is scratching at his nose look at late 80s interviews and look at 90s interviews lol greenday forever!

[billiejoekickass]

[TheMelissaNakama]

So serious.

[RoCkErX285]

lol at 0:48 he says's "twenty-one'st century breakdown"

[TheMelissaNakama]

End of the empire that was America is more like it, not that any government is without a war of some sort, that's why political structures exist anyway. Obama's a democrat?

[col000in]

i hate the french

[cescOBcescD]

@col000in its for french television! come on enough with the hate!

[col000in]

@cescOBcescD

[shelloz09]

[MaiLoveSakuSasu]

@91SkaterGirl2 I really agree with you ! I'm french but I just cannot put up with this fucking voice anymore !! I wanted to hear Billie's talking T T

[begiiie]

He just know some words. You can't say that he speaks French ... ^^

[MrsArmstrong100]

[EmilyDenmark]

I would like to hear what he's saying.

[JennyLovesLollipops]

[666VampireTurtle999]

DAMN THE DUBS D:

I want to hear Billie's voice, not some French guy's deep-throat translations!

[mymindisblanc123]

Omygod! I understand what they're saying xD hahha, I have to thank my french teacher xD

[Irishpunk56]

Lol. It's funny to hear the words "American idiot" in French.

[ElliSagi]

im learning french at school, but i wonder why they have 2 dub over everything? can´t they speak english?

[Liiceo2]

No, in france, all the things on tv have subtitles or "dub"... There's not many people who speak english very good --'

[BigMovieLEAKS]

That's a little ignorant, theyre learning english in school, why cant you just speak french? thats about what your saying.

[PinkyDaLemonCP]

i love it when he does the guitar for the simpsons theme :L :L :L :L made me laugh :D its quite cute too :L <3

you can almost hear what he's saying if you try and focus on him and ignore the stupidly loud french person :L :) x

[docteurmagie]

LOL french from france can't speak english. english canadian is way better

[EvelienGreenDay]

gloria e christian

&

they say 'twentyonest century breakdown '

[Greenday0112]

Yyes I agre they don't speak english very well -_-!

But it is not the case of all French, fortunately !!

[EvelienGreenDay]

the only thing i understand is

'américan idíot'

with a french accent : P

[ICantComeUpWithAName]

Interesting... I don't hate french, but I certainly don't understand a word of it. A lot people say it's such a beautiful language, but I don't really think so (no offense). It's just really annoying when thay gotta dub stuff like this

[Greenday0112]

I know that there is a lot of people who don't like french in the world because it's a difficult language and what some don't find it very beautiful (opinion wich I respect) and I'm not offended because of that. And just like that I would like to have the opinion of non-French persons (it's logic) on the question.

^^

[Greenday0112]

maariaa1995

Why don't you like french ? ( I'm not offended just curious^^)

[JacenEnda]

it's a good thing they don't dub-over the songs.....

[Whatsername252]

Ahhh! every video that i click on has some French dude talking over everything and everyone! >:(

[maariaa1995]

i hate french.

[Greenday0112]

It is on that French it is hard, even in France we don't understand everything !! XD

[RoRoCherryBOMB]

here in ireland we have to study seven subjects, i speak three languages and french is the hardest! and most beautiful lol

[Greenday0112]

si !! ils devraient faire un Disney avec Green Day *fille totalement pétée de rire devant son écran*

j'aimerais bien voir ça :

petit garçon : "papa tu me chante une chanson ?"

père : "d'accord ( là on voit GD qui chante American idiot et le petit mort de peur) ...

faudrait que j'arrête de me faire des délires c'est pas conseillé LOL

[meligreenday]

" Les Green Day son bel et bien vivants et vue la teneur Punk de leur nouvel album, on vous rassure le groupe ne risque pas de finir un jour dans un Disney " ...

'sont vraiment pas drôles les gens de Virgin 17 XD

[TheGreenDayRocks4eva]

great, i can't speak french, im Indonesian, english is hard, french is harder than english

[Jadex3x3]

i thought id be good at french

till now o.o''

[Greenday0112]

joanna994

I unterstand english but not very well and Billie Joe's accent ( Californian accent) is nearly incomprehensible for me so I am happy to hear a french interview.

I learn german too ^^

[Greenday0112]

i m agree with you !

[MiseryxLiana]

i think its stupid you said "why it's in french? or fucking french" just because you dont understand that language, i mean im speak in spanish and i have to do an hard effort everyday when i look a green day video to write or understand what you say and i never said "fucking english".

[hermionexxx]

Wouldn't you rather hear Billie's voice and read French subtitles though?

I'd rather hear Billie's voice than that translator's ugly voice, and that way everyone could enjoy it whether or not they speak French. Voiceovers suck!

[zoezoemarina]

@MiseryxLiana umm thats because the bands first language is english so it should be in english

[softlyserenademe]

@MiseryxLiana I agree with you completely hun and I am an english speaker. That's disrespectful.

[pipoandrea]

@MiseryxLiana dude..you are so true....yo tambien hablo en español xD

[Greenday0112]

joanna994

he says that in the simpson moovie, the caracters reserve to green day a surprise. Billie joe says that is was funny but the question would be: what does it do to die in a simpson moovie ?

and he says it was a funny experience and they had to play the simpsons theme again to the video.

do you anderstand or not ?

[Joanna994]

a bit =]

I don`t speak Frech. only english and a bit of German so listening to Billie and the translator at the same time was a bit confusing

[Greenday0112]

yes don't understand italian at all.

it's cool, i love english. you're italian im french but i can anderstand what you say, it's funny. lol

[Joanna994]

can sb write in English what they say from 2:35 to 3:06, please?

[burnout541]

french guy:even they re first movie on screen the characters from matt groening (dont know).

billy:it was very funny the question u should have asked me was "how does it feel to die in a simpsons movie?"i mean it was a fun experience we even had to play the simpsons theme for the need of the B.O (makes the simpsons theme)

[Greenday0112]

but if french is difficult to understand it's not a fuckin language !! :P

MAB8675309 "um zing zow chung." is not french. well mayby chinese but not french... lol

i'm realy happy 'cause i can anderstand this interwiew lol i'm not very nice ...

i want to understand english !! i learn english for 5 years and i can't anderstand that says Billie Joe...

Trechul with our (french) accent we say "amercican idiot" like that !!

[sarettina505]

and Italian? xD I'm Italian... for you, Italian is difficult to understand?

[Greenday0112]

sorry my english is not perfect, i'm french, you're right the french voice is horrible.

[Trechul]

LOVE how he says American Idiot at :11

[MAB8675309]

um zing zow chung....WHAT?!?!

[kosovarstyle]

[omfgitsLUCYY]

[BrittSquit]

[Courage1073]

Suddenly I appriciate the fact that my parents put me in french immersion and I'm fluent in french... LOL, if it helps me understand Green Day interviews, it's definetly useful.

[lover4ever1018]

[WinnieJ0e]

Many french can speak in english you know !

[lover4ever1018]

SO FUCKIN AMERICAN PEOPLE :@

No I love USA & American, but RESPECT FOR FOREIGNER PLEASE !!!

[Lostonthisisland]

Ugh this is annoying. If you don't know english then why do you listen to Green Day? They could have subtitled this interview, not talked over Billie. I can't hear him! D:

[PinkyDaLemonCP]

or danger3221, its because not everybody in the world speaks english.

you cant expect everyone to know it! xD

[goodriddance11945678]

I don't know french ):

[danger3221]

y rnt thy speeking our language?

[PinkyDaLemonCP]

because its a french channel probably :)

[Chantelle4BillieJoe]

coz there french twats

[kheyraa]

J'aurais préféré qu'ils laissent la voix de Billie Joe et foutent des sous-titres mais bon. Surtout que la voix de Billie Joe est tellement mieux que celle de l'autre, là. Enfin, bref. -_"

Sinon, j'ai adoré le petit air qu'il chantonne sur les Simpson, c'est adorable. :)

[grgn89]

FUCKING FRENCH PEOPLE!

[TheIndustrialPark]

Hmmm... well, I think if you listen to this with ear phones and only have the right one in, you can hear Billie's voice a LITTLE better lol

[greendayrocks001]

i had my mom translate. lol

[RedFantaLover]

but at the same time prettier :)

[popgirrl06]

xD moi je suis plutôt contente pck avec les VO j'oré preske rien capté ! mais bon c vré ke c ùieu ken méme en VO mais bon... y oré pu sous titré ! Sinon, ça change pas mon opignon sur Green Day !

[gathoush]

en français ça craint un peu quand meme !! la voix du mec qui traduit les paroles de billie joe est à chier et bordel il s'appelle billie joe et pas billie !! (ça fait biily elliot beerk !!)

en plus le mec dit twenty ones au lieu de twenty first, retournes à l'école, un 6ème saurait ça !! ça frise le blasphème !!!^^ bref il est quand m^ême mieux en Vo notre billie joe !!!

[ilovebaseball4e]

of course he's getting older but all the people soemtime looks older

[louloucoll]

hahaha !!! TWENTY-ONESTcentury breakdown! quel nul XD

(pour ceux qui voient pas la faute, c twenty FIRST century ...

[punxx1991]

Bon après c'est sûr que c'est un peu plus compréhensible en français.

[greendayxo]
