  • i want this played at my funeral

  • thumbs up if this song was played at a moment that'll never leave you. this song makes the memories even clearer

  • Make the best of this test....

  • Such a beautiful song

  • this song is way to short :)

  • Youtube is broken. It thinks 106 people dislike this video

  • i love you uncle devon! miss u! xoxoxooxox

  • This song was a song I was going to play at my dads memorial when he passed away because I didnt even get to see him before he died and my dad and I had the time of our lives together before he moved and then died. he was only 46 and I loved him. so now everytime i hear this song i think of my dad and how he died:'(

  • @isham10101994srk i voted for it, but we went with the climb by miley goddamn cyrus. =/

  • Green Day is the shit. period. NOTHING FURTHER!

  • 105 people didn't have the time of their lives!

  • WHAT THE.... 105 DISLIKES???!!?!!?!??!!

  • @NerdyBananaz I know right?! bastards.... lol

  • @grouchypus Lol yea

  • they played this song at my graduation

  • I'm not exactly an expert, but that's what I think is playing. Anyway, this song brings back a lot of memories, both happy and sad. It's always a nice song to listen to every once in a while when you want to reminisce.

  • @popyaz10 0:42 sounds like cello with bass backing it 1:05 other strings slowly enter (violins I believe) 1:12 I believe is a viola playing backed by a cello.1:21 is a violin. The moving piece behind it I believe is a second violin. Viola, Cello, and Bass are likely playing parts underneath as well. 1:46 it's definitely a viola playing.1:51 switches back to the violins. 1:59 is a cello and bass, same as 0:42. 2:09 I think is viola, but I could be wrong there. and 2:20 is obviously bass.

  • This song is like about me -3

  • I dont like this band,never will but this song is the shit.Even a metalhead like me can respect this song.

  • I remember seeing the lyrics to this song's chorus on the white board of my old economics teacher on the last day of school... l smiled then a tear came down my face... This should be what every senior graduating high school should hear on their last day...

  • if i was a teacher i would play this for students at the end of each year

  • I sang this last year in graduation. The best part was when half of my friends joined in. This was our song for the school year and it was a ritual to listen to this every last day of school. Good memories <3

  • OMG! at my school we have this retreat called operation snowball. While we're there we go to a dance and at the end of the dance they put all the seniors in a circle and play this song for them. It's kinda our way of saying goodbye to them. It always makes me cry.

  • this song makes me cry, but not because it makes me sad. It just makes me realise and liberates me and my emotions of what life really is. "It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right" whenever I'm scared about the future I listen to this song and it reassures me, because that's what this song means for me. Thank you Green Day.

  • @breannaeggnog Okay that was funny, I have to admit most of them are dumb but that made me laugh.

  • we have to sing this at school at graduation

  • Apparently, this was written about a girl Billie Joe went out with in high school (I think she was Hawaiian) who moved away, and his anger and bitterness at the fact that she was leaving.

  • at first id dint notice this but just at the start it says fu

  • My best friend just moved to a different school. He's been like my big brother for the past 2 years. He wrote a note to the only 5 people at school he would miss, including me. He was popular, everybody knew and loved him, but he wanted nothing to do with them. He told me he would always be my big brother, and just reading it I cried. Good luck big bro, please don't leave me forever. <3

  • This makes me sad because If she ever breaks up with me... I'd die...

  • This is going to be my graduation song....I don't care if they don't let us have a graduating song. I am bring my ipod and BLASTING THIS!

  • @sugarmagnolia787 It's an angry breakup song. That's why it's called "Good Riddance." "It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right" ... hear the bitterness?

  • @krrrcht I know...but it COULD be a graduation song....I mean they used it on Friends!

  • THIS MAKES ME SAD WHO THINKS THIS IS THIS SAD!

  • At the end of each school year someone makes a slide show full of pictures with this song clipped to it. Always makes everyone sad.

  • i graduated to this! brings back memories of 'the good old days' :')

  • The meaning of this song is mis-interpreted by a lot people, because they think the context is "bye, I'll miss you". When it actually means - "So long, I'm glad you're out of my life."

  • @a2ndood; Well, it's not a vindictive song either. It's just sort of a melancholy, accepting tone, saying that "It's too bad, but leaving is the right thing to do".

  • i can never hold my composer during this song they played it at my 19 year old cousins funeral when this first came out....it was his favorite song

  • This reminds me when my ex let me go, for the better.

  • fuck.

  • this song reminds me of a good friend's brother who committed suicide may he rest in piece.

  • its good to bad its a little short

  • Oh man. Deep shit.

  • This song reminds me of a kid in my high school who committed suicide.He was a football and player a nice looking dude(am not gay just saying) he had alot going for him although i didnt know him cuz he was grade lower then me.On youtube some of his pears made a tribute to him with picture with this friends and this song was on to.... I dont know you but rest in peace Justin we love you :)

  • @kLuKluXJaMes Why'd he do that?

  • @1996TapTapKing Man i wish i knew but just know this what ever the reason it was not only 1 reason it was probably many reason why he did. rest in peace Justin

  • @kLuKluXJaMes Good Riddance *Zing*

  • @kLuKluXJaMes dude this song is like saying fuck you to whoever he wrote it too, no one gets that though...

  • What does "dead skin on trial" mean??

  • The girl you just called fat? She is overdosing on diet pills. The girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting makeup on hoping people will like her. The boy you just tripped? He is abused enough at home by his parents. See that man with the ugly scars? He fought for our country. That guy you just made fun of for crying? His mother is dying. Post this to another video if you are against bullying. You never know what it's like until you walk a mile in their shoes.

  • who heard FUCK !! :D :D !

  • This played at my 5th grade graduation, and you know what the ironic thing is? My 5th grade teacher DIED! And the last words I said to him were, "good bye" I swear to god, the same thing will happen this year...And my friends say I'm cursed, and I'm starting to believe that, actually...anyway...I always get teary-eyed when I listen to this song and I was thinking of singing this at my School's talent show...because, some of the 8th graders are gonna part ways, as for me, I have to part ways wi

  • Does he mutter f#%k at 0:04?

  • @rudydarapper Yesh

  • @rudydarapper yes i hav noticed that since i was like 9 i remember i was like WTF WAS THAT!!!

  • @rudydarapper No, it's 4. As in one, two, three, four.

  • @duff999991 No, he says f**k.

  • @rudydarapper yeah he screws up twice. "shit..*strums*...fuck"

  • @rudydarapper Yes. They thought it was such a serious song that it needed something light-hearted.

  • @rudydarapper

    Yea he does

  • @rudydarapper No he quite clearly says it?

  • @rudydarapper yes. love it

  • @rudydarapper shows how he feels for his dad <3 Fuck the world for taking him

  • @rudydarapper yes he does^^

  • @rudydarapper YES! On the album version, at the beginning, Billie Joe Armstrong makes a mistake (the 3rd string of the open G chord is played instead of the 4th), tries again, repeats the mistake, and in anger swears in a barely audible voice. In between tries, the faint click of a digital metronome can be discerned as well.

  • @rudydarapper no thats just the guitar u idiot

  • @410florida Actually he f*cks up twice and mutters that in anger ;)

  • @rudydarapper Yes.

  • @ProdigyChild2014 we cant listnen to this vid in 1942, i was out in 2009, get your facts right!!!

  • @hondamanforlife1 no! His/her (too lazy too look it up now) comment just pointed out the true meaning of good riddance: billie was in love with that girl and she left him or even went to south america or something and now he actually is like well fuck you hope you had the time of your life down there, just f.o.d.

    My aunt once told me that this song describes the broke up relationship to my uncle. I almost cried then i thought well she probably doesn't know the fod meaning
