Green Day - American Idiot

This song is dedicated to Lindsay Lohan, since it’s her birthday and all.

Not to mention that it was on this day in 1776 that the Continental Congress declared independence from Great Britain, however, the Declaration of Independence wasn’t adopted until July 4. I already knew that little fun fact, seriously. So, just make your 4th of July festivities start two days earlier.

Green Day - Nice Guys Finish Last

Leave it to Green Day to take this commonly used phrase (and let’s not forget true) and turn it into a kick ass song.

“Nice Guys Finish Last” was the first track off of 1997’s Nimrod, which happened to be the band’s fifth studio album. The track also appeared on Green Day’s 2001 greatest hits compilation International Superhits! and was also used in the James Van Der Beek classic Varsity Blues.

Apparently, Green Day will be recording the follow-up to 2004’s American Idiot in January.

Frontman Billie Joe Armstrong told Rolling Stone in October that the band has already written around 45 songs for the new album; and I can’t wait to hear them, it’s already been over three years since American Idiot !

Green Day - American Idiot

If you haven’t checked American Idiot by now, then you’ve been missing out on a fine piece of musical greatness.

I’m sure almost everyone has heard at least “American Idiot” and “Boulevard of Broken Dreams”, but the album has so much more, like the 9 minute plus “Jesus of Suburbia/City of the Damned/I Don’t Care/Dearly Beloved/Tales of Another Broken Home” melody.

FYI: Green Day

The Bay Area rockers just appeared on Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur with an awesome version of John Lennon’s “Working Class Hero”. They will also have cameos in the upcoming Simpsons movie, oh yeah, they also recorded a new version of the theme song too!
