In all the music threads their are a lot of people who say that they like the old green day.
I was just wondering how many people prefer the old from the new.
I prefer the old in my opinion.

I wasn't talking about you...

I've just noticed so many people saying, "Oh the old Green Day is soooo much better" and it's like, have you even listened to the old Green Day? Or are you just saying that because the new Green Day isn't cool?
 
look.
i hate GD mostly because they just seem to annoying & full of themselves.
but i prefer OLD GD. & it's not because people say the new stuff is stupid. i honestly think it's annoying & too catchy for my liking. though i ADORE She's A Rebel.
but i like some of the old GD. I don't listen to much of it, but i have heard some of it.
Good Riddance... Minority... Misery...All By Myself...
 
Old, like when i come around...basket case... american idiot is ok but ppl dont know what it means
 
Old. But the new gd is good too =] I just love Minority
 
ok all u ppl that dont like green day now dont really listen to the music.. old green day was burnout punks that wanted to rock..now American Idiot is taking on the world and i respect that...old green day rocks dont get me wrong...but the new green day is bigger and more complexed
 
OLD!!!The new one is just annoying me because the songs were over played. Basket Case is one of my favorite songs.

I was just thinking the same thing.

note-once again, following rant directed at no one.

I listen to hardcore death/black metal music and I just love it when all those kids are like "OMG LIEK GREENDAYZ!!!11!1!" thinking these concerts are the real thing.

No. No. No. A million times no.

The front man actually said that his music was going to change once he had kids. And it did. I don't blame him in the least, but I don't like the new stuff. He didn't want his children to grow up living the rockstar life. And I understand that. But his music suffered.

Green day was an amazing band. They used to be what people think they are now. But they're not that anymore. I think greenday needs to just give up the goat, so to speak. They've lost all their real fans now, anyway.
 
i do listen to old and new GD and i prefre old not because everyone said it the reason i s the new GD sound like thee are running out of ideas

I'm having trouble trying to sleep
I'm counting sheep but running out
As time ticks by
And still I try
No rest for crosstops in my mind

On my own... here we go

My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed
Dried up and bulging out my skull
My mouth is dry
My face is numb
****ed up and spun out in my room

On my own... here we go

My mind is set on overdrive
The clock is laughing in my face
A crooked spine
My sense's dulled
Passed the point of delerium

On my own... here we go

My eyes feel like they're gonna bleed
Dried up and bulging out my skull
My mouth is dry
My face is numb
****ed up and spun out in my room

On my own... here we go

American Idiot

Don't want to be an American idiot.
Don't want a nation under the new media
And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind ---- America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

Well maybe I'm the ------ America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along to the age of paranoia.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

Don't want to be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.
It's calling out to idiot America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alien nation.
Where everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

Read the lyrics... I don't know if it will do anything but I'm just pointing out what old was like and the new is like.
 
im not sure where the ' old ended and new started ' but i think good ridance is old? and holiday is new?
anyway ill show a comparison in lyrics as well

Holiday

say! hey!

Hear the sound of the falling rain
Coming down like an armageddon flame (Hey!)
The shame, the ones who died without a name

Hear the dogs howling out of key
To a hymn called Faith and Misery (Hey!)
And bleed, the company who lost the war today

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

Hear the drum pounding out of time
Another protestor has crossed the line (Hey!)
To find, the money's on the other side

Can I get another Amen (Amen!)
There's a flag wrapped around a score of men (Hey!)
A gag, A plastic bag on a monument

I beg to dream and differ from the hollow lies
This is the dawning of the rest of our lives
On holiday

hey!

Good Riddance ( time of your life )

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road.
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go.
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why.
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind.
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time.
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial.
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.
I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end is right.

Not everyone wants to be educated on a political view. Most of us just want them to "shut up and sing."
