Billie Joe Armstrong checked in with RADIO.COM from home to deliver this stripped down, acoustic masterpiece of 'Graffitia.' #GreenDay #BillieJoeArmstrong #Graffitia
Aiden Rutherford but i mean that’s a lot of songs already but imagine the ones that aren’t released easily 1000+ songs that all have at least 2 pages of lyrics
i don't know how many times we have to keep saying that his voice sounds just so much better without a bunch of effects added to it and this proves it. I already liked Graffitia's album version but this is just so much better.
Billie, if you read this, thank you so much for making music the way you do. I'm entering my second year of university and your music has been by my side for as long as I can remember. Every high, low, and every mental point between those extremes, Green Day or any one of the side projects has had a song for me to relate to and jam with. I just hope you get some of the reflected feels back at you with how many lives you touched :)
I feel this, Green Day's been my first musical love in high school and I'm sitting here one and a half decades later, still feeling this connection to their music. Suppose that's what it means to be a real fan lol
This is exactly how I feel. Green Day has a song for every mood and emotion. You can always find a song to relate to. It doesn’t matter how old or young you are, if you can relate to a song, listen to it. Green Day has touched so many lives. ❤️
I feel the same way. First cd I ever bought was American Idiot when I was little. I remember watching Loaded on FUSE and be enthralled by every single video. There is a green day song for everything
best way to contact him is turn on his post notifications on instagram on the longshot page and when he posts on there immediately comment what you want to
Slightly_inhumane I’m not saying that liking the album is extreme, I’m saying that it being in top three is extreme. For me they have 7 albums better than this one. 39 Smooth, Dookie, Nimrod, Warning, AI, 21st Century, and Rev Rad are all better.
@@Taylor_5724 yes if he’s drunk anywhere else he will do fine as long as the crowd doesn’t suck like I heart radio He’s actually drunk during a lot of live performances.
@@evilenchilada3830 likely not anymore since he went to rehab (iheart radio incident + cancelling some tour dates shows the urgency and severity of the situation so i doubt he’ll do that again)
Billie inspires me so much! I'm a thirteen year old girl and is saving up for my own electric guitar. Green Day will never fail to make me happy and think about what life is really like.
I believe the acoustic is a j45 vintage. If it’s a true vintage and not a reissue, with the banner logo “only a gibson is good enough” on the headstock it can be worth north of $10k
@@sambarney6837 I know, but a combination of autocorrect and I'm lazy, And know you've commented my error will have to remain, But I'm sure you don't have the time.....to listen to me whine....
Love this song, and this version is amazing ! Hope there is more songs off that home concert, I enjoyed Boulevard of Broken Dreams and this one a lot !
Billie, please let me know you read this.... you have been in my life way back in the early days, I saw you in Gillman street when I was very young. I moved to Australia with my family. I became heavily addicted to drugs and this is where you saved me. All I had was my backpack and my discman. Plus 5 things. 1000 smooth, kerplunk, dookie, insomniac and nimrod. The only things I never sold for speed and cocaine. I played you from 1 disc to another then repeated. Nights sitting at train stations with my eyes bugged out listening to songs of the same thing, especially dookie and insomniac. The only thing that kept me alive was green day. It’s like it was my escape world. I was never alone. I’m now a dad and have a good job, new car , home and friends. But my biggest friends will always be you, mike and tre. I’m serious I’m in tears writing this I feel so close to you. Green day saved my life.
Everybody else singing out all the “Only the Lonely & Wasted” lines? Love this song on the album, digging these acoustic/campfire singalong versions too.
Billie sounds so good!!! 😍😍😍 I love the new album. Along with every single album before that. I can honestly say Green Day has never made music that I did not absolutely love and connect with. He is making the music that makes HIM happy. And as long as Billie is happy, then as a fan, I am happy. I support him, Mike and Tre not just as musicians and artists, but as people as well. Keep supporting Gods favorite band. 💚⚡💚⚡💚⚡💚
Love it when they show they don't edit out the honest mistakes. It delivers a more genuine and honest performance. We are never 100% perfect 100% of the time but as long as the effort is there we'll recognize it.
His voice is definitely higher nowadays compared to a few years ago. It’s because of all those high notes he’s been singing that are in FOAM. Not a bad thing. Increases his range imo.
I think it’s awesome that you’re releasing content like this. Thank you. Unlike some of the inane garbage that some so-called ‘celebs’ are putting on social media.
Been a fan since before tre was the drummer. I have every album I love every song. I have never been to a concert and was really looking forward to.it. Thanks for the music you are fabulous
Some have said that Billy Joe Armstrong's voice sounds "nasal." That's not what I hear. The thing I noticed from the very beginning is that Billy Joe's voice is over- the-top scarry PERFECT. He hits every note with PERFECT pitch no matter how fast he sings. He nails each note clearly without swooping up to it, and in a millisecond hits the next note PERFECTLY. This guy has perfect pitch, almost super human. Its not easy for any singer to pull that off consistently... and live... especially when you're also the lead guitar player!
I love Green Day, and BJ is a good singer. I'd consider him very good. He's no virtuoso though! He's very good. I really like Mark Hoppus' voice too, and he's no virtuoso either.
I love these home acoustics. It just brings out something in the artists. ♥️ This definitely put a smile on my face getting ready for work at 6.30am lol also, the new album isn't that shit guys. I took a couple listens to the whole album and fell in love lol
I've been hooked on Graffitia since FOAM dropped, this version and seeing my hero continue to be my hero, priceless. Thank you for making quarantine more tolerable BJ, and I forget lyrics sometimes too haha!!
If Billie ever reads this I want him to know that I love his music so much and his music has kept me going all these years! Love u Billie keep up the good work🥰😁😊
Let's face it the only one who's pretending is you, and that is that you truly like the album. You're trying hard to like it just cuz it's your favorite band. I've been there before. Let's be real now, the album is really mediocre. It's not the worst thing I've listened to, but it's not far from it either.
