  • Green Day is the only badass band that can create a story on a CD

  • @Death2RockwayMiddle That is completly wrong; Green Day's rock opera was mediocre AT BEST. Check out The Who.

  • whatever happened to the Movie version of American idiot? the story is great and would be awesome to go see

  • They're actualy making a play of it....

  • Billie Joe even came out and said that Wake Me Up When Sept. Ends has nothing to do with the rest of the album, it is a song about his mourning for his father, which makes sense because Green Day was coming up with new songs from late august to mid-sept. which is around the time Billie Joe's father died...

  • yeha i know but if it were emi connected this is what it would be

  • okay.

    hey you should make video explaining 21st century breakdown.

  • Basically perfect except for Wake Me Up When September Ends. It's not related to the album, it's about Billie Joe's dad dying (in September). I'm not interpreting this, I read an interview about it.

see all

  • They need to make this in to a movie!!!! I've had the album for some years and I think that every time I listen to it.... It reminds me of the crazy adventure my life has been....

  • another teenage angst album, meh. Been there done that. Ripoff of the movie SLC Punk

  • @Death2RockwayMiddle

  • I totally agree. Also who the hell are you and how are you on my old account?

  • Thanks

  • oh wow. . . that's beautiful. I didn't know there was so much to the album.
