  • This is not billie Joe armstrong.

    It's Jesse Malin!

  • this is Billy Joe Armstrong, the Green Day singer. its his cover, I like it.

  • What's so wrong with the mural. Not every person get the privledge to have a mural of himself painted for public view. That pessimistic view was the very essence of Joe's soul. Look past the accepted view and think positive.

  • that first verse is so well written. Joe had a way to describe the pulse of despair. His words opened up a possibilty of hope

  • shows you the melody of this song.

  • Nice voice potentially making really great tunes, but not really digging the cover myself.

  • hey dude ,im a huge clash fan and i think your version of this is great, well done.

  • hahaha @ posuerbuster

  • i used to pass by this mural every day on the way to work. I love the clash and I hate this horrible rendition of Joe. It looks nothing like him!! Also this "cover" is making my ears bleed. Thank god I don't work in the lower east side anymore.

  • can u put death and glory, the one by the clash, or put a clash song, or a song sung by joe

  • can anyone tell me where is graffiti is located at new york

  • its on avenue A and East 7th st in nyc accrost the street from Tompkins Square park .

  • Comment removed

  • this video rules

  • Why somber? No dis to the singer but I'm not down for it and at the same time, this ain't the blues. Galvanize!! Revolt did the tribute piece, I think.

  • R,I,P Joe

  • learn 3 chords and go form a band. . .punks not dead. .

  • Haha well put. Thats what i did :p

  • how did he die?

  • heart failure

  • death or glory, just another story. good tribute or whatever you want to call it

  • man bad cover. sorry

  • Both Beautiful! I love Jesse Malin!! Love this cover!!!! Mural is so cool and NYC Amazing! Joe is missed but well remembered...

    Sheila

  • Not a fan of the cover.

    Pretty strange voice too.

    But the focus of the video, the mural brought a tear to my eye.

    Great tribute to a greater man.

  • =o great graffiti! DEP joe!

  • It's legal graffiti... and some of the best I've ever seen (other than Portland Maine's mural of chaos)

  • he who fuck nuns...

    a philosophy that comes true in every aspect of life i think.

  • someone's gonna totally destroy you for that comment!

    its jesse malin btw

  • so than why dont you

  • [TUT] if you really want...

    what's called a bass, guitar and drumkit? hmmmm [tick tock] is it a bass, guitar and drumkit? yes? so whats called an apple? an apple, right thanks, now i feel thoroughly educated enough to tie my shoelaces

  • so fucking beutiful! i whanna thanks the guys who made this graffity and the one who did do this movei i say like davidwatts1978 joe would be proud! r.i.p //jesper klaréus

  • i wanna cry...

  • good version

  • i hate this cover. there is only one song out there that is worse then this: the fall out boy cover of "love will tear us apart."

    but jesus, this song has almost been ruined.

  • Hmmm. I think it's pretty amazing myself. Beautiful version - Joe woulda loved it..

  • Whoops, just noticed

  • Where is that Graffiti?

  • NY city, I think it was east village. I love clash, I was walking and saw it by chance.

  • its a lovely version, Joe would be proud

  • This is the Jesse Malin cover version and, frankly, it kicks ass. His version of of "Help us" (Neil Young) or "Oliver's Army" (Elvis Costello) are also worth checking out

  • What's that horrid music? Post Joe singing please.

  • Agreed, I understand why you used it (the mural is outside Jesse Malin's cafe), but it's pretty awful.
