Green Day Grouch Live and Big Yellow Taxi

[da1benzo]

Shocking 'performance'

[derpdederp101]

that big yellow taxi snippet sounded pretty good

[HeartCuore]

They're THE BEST band ever.

[GREENDATandBJ]

“Don't know what you got till it's gone"

That's a important song to life

[punx8086]

1997!!! This is one of my favorite green day shows....I remember watching this live at my buddies house!! I have recorded it on a vhs, oh the good old days....

[TreCoolRockzXD]

[dcdude171]

[predator14502]

GD 4 EVER....

[jannaslink]

damn theyre great :D

[mrata333]

easy pilgrums: as the hopi advise don'ty go around hurting, try to unddersteand things

[xxxxRageandlovexxxx]

did u know tht their bullet in a bible concert is the 7th biggest one musician concert EVER n tht american idiot is the 6th best written album of th last 25 yrs? entertainmnet weekly, i swear im not shitting u.

[junkattackjunk]

fuck you and ur bands...you know what? ill write a song about you licking my ass and i bet ya you'd listen to it....get a life u fuckin faggot

[xxxxRageandlovexxxx]

fine, write a song about that, but make sure it has depth and makes sense, and relates to you, before you write, someone has to "lick your ass" for real...gross, faggot.

[junkattackjunk]

you call me faggot yet you listen to a bisexual...

[xxxxRageandlovexxxx]

ur the one who wants ppl 2 lick ur ass....just sayin. i LISTEN to a bisexual band, that doesnt make me gay.

[Greenday34487]

dickhead, no1 asked 4 ur shitty worthless opinion, and why u watchin this vid ne1 u ugly cunt?

[Altoonasuks]

Mitchell's "yellow Taxi" is a timeless tune; Everyone covers it...it has meaning! I stumbled on this .......I'm not a big Greenday head but why is this guy a drunken asshole? punkpop?never understood it? that's perhaps why 182,sum41,those type....couldn't even dream up a good album like say The Who-Who's Next...singin tunes about gettin stoned in high school wears on your brain and is easy to write! I could'nt even imagine trying to write a Bob Dylan style song..Or Nirvana,The Beatles,Jimi, etc.

[1FoxboroHotTubs1]

Bob Dylans songs are non-sensicle... If you don't like Green Day then get over it. It's personal preference... So shut up

[Altoonasuks]

is this comment directed to me?

[pirocallahan2]

agreed :)

[DisappearingGirl24]

Green Day is much better than Nirvana!!!

[gillingham08]

i agree but it is a hard decision between the two

[Altoonasuks]

is green day better than the Beatles ,Dylan, Grateful Dead, Hendrix, Who, or the Stones.....maybe to you & that's definately o.k. by me. Last time I realized what country Iwas from (United StatesofAmerica)

Means you like whatever u want. Have a grateful day & may GOD always bless you

Peace,

Paul

p.s. i don't wanna be a American idiot(HAHAHA!!)

[jawsh95]

at least you said that you dont want to be an american idiot.. but the thing is 95% of americans are dick heads.. now.. dont think im just saying this because im an australian.. but look at yourselfs.. and im pretty sure saying (quote)"have a graceful day & may GOD always bless you".. i dont think you should be commenting on a punk video...

[musicluver266]

so you are saying 95% of approximately 301,139,947 people are dick heads? riiiiiight. Those odds are definitely in your favor! We are all human and being in a specific country does not make us any more a dick head than the rest. Don't be stupid.

[xxxxRageandlovexxxx]

Green Day started writing music when they were 10, and practised the crap out of themselves everysingle day and they still do now, your naming different types of music, sum 41 hav lik 2 albums, blink r just the band tht stays for a while than dies, ur putting green day in a category which is completely wrong for it. BITCH

[ofdarknessandlight]

they're still a pop rock/punk band, what were you trying to say by that? it's not like their "since they were 10" ability exactly shines through in their music. they raped the fuck out of Joni Mitchell, haha what is this, environmental punk?!

[xxxxRageandlovexxxx]

punk can be about anything, that's its purpose! The Clash wrote a song about Iran banning rock and roll, and a song about London, and a dancing song that is just simpla and happy! Their taste is old fashioned, and their most recent album was a story a rock opera, it didnt reflect them it reflected the story!

[Greenday34487]

i totally agree lol yer

[Greenday34487]

u really cant appreciate talent when its there staring u in the face can u?....its a shame really that there are people aimlessly walkin around like this..

[ofdarknessandlight]

what are you some sort of cunt?

[Greenday34487]

no retard but im sure u r dickface

[ofdarknessandlight]

cheers, at least I have one.... and don't listen to greenday

[ivan4934196]

you are one of these deadbeats who waste they worthless time critizising things on youtube, right? xD

[ofdarknessandlight]

sorry, I had been watching mr Tourettes, I couldn't help myself. (best line ever...) and Yes and no... in this case I had no idea what the fuck the guy was on about so I had to say something he probably took offense to......

[alzy9995]

the grouch is a fun song!

[kinsey0677]

hes sooo drunk!

[MFBIGD]

cool version

'Everybod:"the world owes me so FUCK YOUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!!"'

[stevevaizorz]

You people are fools to think this cover is better than the original song, I mean.. are you fucking kidding me?!

[shadeless01]

i hate motherfuckers who think that the original is always the best. i think sometimes it takes a couple of artist to figure out the best way to interpret the song. art is living and breathing thing and artist try to bring it to life to the best of their ability. i love the counting crows version and i think all of the rest are pretty bad so i give credit to joni mitchel for writing it but i give counting crows credit for bringing it to life for me. just my opinion but if you dont like it fuck u

[MFBIGD]

agreed...

I just think that I would say that.. if ya don't have anything good to say so.. hm.. SHUT UP!!!!!!!

[stephen462]

this is a shit version...that's my opinion though :)

[vme3000]

this is crap!!!!!!!!!!!

[DisappearingGirl24]

Poland is the best Green day fan!

We love you!!!!!!!!!

[Aamushy]

Green Day, Poland loves you :*

[andrerochertek]

FUCK!! SHIITTT!!

[poisongurl11]

So many people have done versions of this song... but I think this is the best yet. Counting crows is pretty good too though.

[FaroeseGuy]

This Big Yellow Taxi is way better than Joni's version! Even though Joni's was the original.

Green Day/Pinhead Gunpowder are great bands! :D

[wolfmaster428]

ALL OF U ARE DUMBASSES ESPECIALLY THOSE WHOM THINK COUNTING CROWS WROTE THIS. There will NEVER!!!! BE a version better than the original

[IAmFaroe]

Actually, this version IS better than the original. And learn your grammar, mate...

[lubberink]

You are right wolfmaster428 there can't be a better version of the original.

[rohiogerv22]

Playing the exact same notes, with the exact same type of guitars, with the exact same voice, there cant be any better than the original. Putting their own style on it though, gives any bands that remake it also a good amount of credit. The wierd thing i noticed here though is that since they converted straight from Big Yellow Taxi to The Grouch, they must have the same tuning, which is strange. Maybe they came up with the Grouch messing with Big Yellow Taxi.

[GreendayversusU2]

ur right..weird

[SherylJoe]

The original is how it was intended to be by the artist, so I think Joni Mitchell's is the best. I'm not much of a green day fan, but I wanted to hear their interpretation of the song.

[utahsssss]

I love that song, I love green day, so fucking great!! big kiss from Paris!! ^^

[StupidxComment]

I can't find the big taxi!

[JimBobTp82]

The Reason He was making people say Fukk and Shit was cause this was a concert on MTV called Live From 10spot and they edited this concert with all the swearing cut out. But some overseas got to see it uncensored like this song and the rest of the show. that is to clear it up for u people

[GreenDevil42]

LMAO! every1 say fuck right now. ok, now every1 say shit Green Day is the Fucking best

[abcdiablo]

Green Day is the BEST group on the Word

[laureninjapan]

i love green day, BUT, their Big Yellow Taxi version isnt so good....

Sorry

[80greenday]

i thought it was pretty good

[laureninjapan]

Hey, everyones allowed an opinion..

[80greenday]

true

[Lolagerbil]

which CD is The Grouch on?

[chadfive55]

Nimrod or Insomniac i think;)

[Lolagerbil]

k. thnx.

[80greenday]

Nimrod, for sure :)

[shinemyknob123]

The Grouch is on Nimrod, track # 3.

[citarrista]

aoh!

[thejoron]

I've been a fan of Green Day since I was a kid, I will always listen to them. But if you say that you never heard a better singer that Billie Joe you're just beeing naive. I love his vioce, but it's definatly not the best voice I've heard.

[JeffRotull43]

SINCE you were a kid?

[Aamushy]

I have this gig and it's wonderfull, yeah BJ forget text of Brain Stew

[greencotz]

Green Day en los 90's era el mejor grupo del mundo ..... ahuevo

ahora ya no pero ni pedo

[greendayrocker247]

I wish this song was on iTunes in the Green Day version.

[rohiogerv22]

Try Pinhead Gunpowder, they're the band Billie Joe does Big Yellow Taxi proffessionally with. I found this version on Limewire under Pinhead Gunpowder, not sure bout iTunes but worth a try

[greenday4everUC]

is a great cover, i dont care that say the others

[01FRENCHY12]

i like the original better

[lilpaw05]

ugh, they sang it horrible

[pablinchi25]

and u sing better right? jackass

[NothingBeforeUs]

Most people can sing better than billie. He's never been known for singing on key, that was never the point of Green Day. They started as a punk band! Not many good punk singers. Doesn't mean that they're not good, so don't take such insult.

[chaosfilms9295]

personally i have never heard anyone sing better than Billie and i dont think anyone ever will, GREEN DAY FOREVER!

[boludo7719]

fuck you very much dude bilie joe sing very good and he is also punkrock

[skidoo300]

Me 2, i have never heard any1 sing better than billie! He is fucking good! He be better and better! U just a *#¤%&>/"!§

Green Day 4 EVER!!!!!!!!!

[ginaglocksenroxox]

there are like a million versions of this song.... lol "1,2,3......."

.....they altered this song too much although i love green day and ani1 who dosent has officialy no taste in music or life.

[rubzleandditchda]

I love greenday but they didnt do this song well at all. Counting crows- now they did it well!

[chaosfilms9295]

who cares Green Day does their own thing

[umademedoit2]

how old is this

[baf03]

about 9 years old (1998)

[Tinkerbellshomey]

what the heck was Mike doing at the start of the video? it was too dark to see...

[baf03]

he was giving the middle finger.

[evildogmah]

Eh.... Their vocals suck in this song, not to mention the fact ,they ALL of their songs sound EXACTLY the SAME! Not talking about lyrics, seriously, listen to the beat and all the MUSIC rather then the shitty vocals. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Green Day, they are one of my favorite bands. But I'm one of those people that don't mind stating that their favorite band has shitty vocals on a song, when they have.... REALLY shitty vocals on that song.

[theegg89]

Well you say that because its not their original song, you're just another poser who thinks "saying greenday is shit" is cool. OH ye, they are 3 chords, same beat, so what? Why do so many people love them? they got a style that no1 has, sometimes i prefer a 3 chords song with good lyric than a 9 minutes long solo.

[pablinchi25]

cause thats billies voice u dumbass! and if u tired about his voice listen take back

[NothingSpecialBand]

..............wow.... green day has some of the BEST vocals, and their songs sound totally different!! i dont get you at all...how the hell could you think that like....say longview, sounds like, say, platypus....

you're wrong

[lukinlex]

what a classic song! Wish they would play this song again live some day.....u never know

[kriborkiee]

1 2 3......shit

[adelineblue72]

[littleredguitars]

[modernyourface]

[fattywantasteak2005]

Why can't they play a longer cover song for ''Big Yellow Taxi''. Their version sounds a lot better.

[rapado87]

like renannene said above, look for the cover of Pinhead Gunpowder, billie's voice still there :P

[fattywantasteak2005]

Now this is the Green Day I like, back in the good ol' days.
