an awesome punk/rock band who formed in 1988 and have 8 albums including 38/smooth (their fisrt album) dookie (first album after leaving lookout!records) and american idiot (comback album said to be a sellout)
some people think grenday are sellouts now and the only people who like american idiot are teeny boppers but they're not.
to prove the idiots who think green day are sellouts i interviewed my 11 year old cousin who i know loves greenday and hence found that if greenday hadn't done american idiot, she wouldnt even know about them and that even though her favourite song was made before she was born, she still loves it.
me: whats your favourite green day song?
my 11 year old cousin: warning!
me:but you werent even born when that was relesed?
cousin: so, those songs are timeless.
me: how did you find out about greenday.
cousin: heard boulevard of broken dreams on the radio and decided to check out their other songs.
me: well my faves are jesus of suburbia, homecoming, whatshername, longview, basket case. ever heard of them?
cousin: yer, i'm not an idiot. those are great songs.
me: do you get what they mean? like do you understand the lyrics?
cousin: well sorta. but does it matter?
me: well i reckon it makes it so much better for me, but in your case it might make it worse
cousin: whatever, your like 10 years older than me or something
