Customer Reviews

Surprisingly Good

Overall, great album, had a few playthroughs and now I love the different versions of these songs, there are a few songs that you think, why did you sing it that way, personally, my least favourite is "Know Your Enemy", it sounds too much as if they are shouting, rather than the original, which was not quite that shouting and had some good vocals.

"Whatsername" is a fantastic version and possibly better than the original, also "21 Guns" is amazing, due the the female vocals, as the song definatly suits a woman's voice. All the songs hit the 4 star mark and most hit the 5 star marks.

In my opinion, the song "When It's Time" (Green Day Version) needs a 6th star, it is outstanding, a brilliantly emotional song that Green Day's lead singer, Billie Joe Armstrong, wrote over 20 years a go for his wife and the moment you hear it, you know its a song you will love and a song that you will want to play at your wedding.

Overall a great album, only reason it is not 5 stars is becuase its not Green Day, but then again its not meant to be, a definatly reccomended buy!

D.S.

:/ hmm

its is ok for a cheesy musical but greenday are an amazing punk/rock band and no dodgy high school musical spin off could ever do justice to their awesomness
i think that they are good singers but their tone of voice isn't suited to billy joe's and could never be as epic as his
the songs are awesome the covers are not so
GREEN DAY ROCK !! :)

Unfortunately You Can't Give No Stars

Epically poor. How dare they ruin Green Day like that? It's like Busted have got the songs and put them in a blender with some kind of sick boy band cr*p. It makes me want to pull my own ears off.
Other than that, anything with Green Day's name on is amazing.

Biography

Formed: 1988 in Berkeley, CA

Genre: Alternative

Years Active: '80s, '90s, '00s, '10s

Out of all the post-Nirvana alternative bands to break into the pop mainstream, Green Day were second only to Pearl Jam in terms of influence. At their core, Green Day were simply punk revivalists who recharged the energy of speedy, catchy three-chord punk-pop songs. Though their music wasn't particularly innovative, they brought the sound of late-'70s punk to a new, younger generation with Dookie, their 1994 major-label debut. Dookie sold over ten million copies, paving the way for a string of multi-platinum...
