AMERICAN IDIOT BRACKET Round 1: Whatsername Vs. Letterbomb Extraordinary Girl Vs. She's a Rebel Homecoming Vs. Holiday American Idiot Vs. Wake Me Up When September Ends St. Jimmy Vs. Jesus of Suburbia
Whatsername (Did this have to be a first round matchup?) She's a Rebel Holiday Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia
This one I can join! Whatsername Extraordinary Girl Holiday (I LOVE Homecoming, but Holiday is such a monumental banger that I think it should win the whole bracket. My favourite Green Day song) Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia This album came out at the perfect time for me – I was 13 and starting to get into music for real. The videos were playing on MTV everyday when I came home from school. The nostalgia is strooong. I don't listen to it that frequently nowadays but every time I do I'm filled with emotion. Both from thinking about the storyline and about my adolescence.
Whatsername (Honestly my favorite GD song ever) Extraordinary Girl (probably my two least favorite tracks on the album) Holiday Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia
Honestly, this album was absolutely mind blowing when I first heard it at 13, but it really hasn't held up for me all that well. Still has some of my favorite GD songs on it, but there's a stretch in the middle-end of the album where I begin to lose interest. Still think Jesus of Suburbia should win the whole bracket
Whatsername (#1 and #2 on the record, so...that's a great first round matchup) She's a Rebel (No brainer, Extraordinary Girl is the worst song on the record by such a wide margin it's almost unfair) Homecoming (Underrated vs. Overplayed) Wake Me Up When September Ends Jesus of Suburbia
