Day 12: A Song from a Band I Hate?

I don't know that I like the word "hate." But I do know of a band I can't stand. There's a radio station back home that I had to stop listening to because they played this band too often. But it's not hatred, really. I just think they're annoying. And what I think was even more annoying was that one of their songs ended up as our "class song" my senior year in high school. I'm pretty sure the voting was rigged somehow. I was in choir that year (okay, I was in choir every year in high school. Sometimes multiple choirs in one semester), and for whatever reason we had to sing the class song at graduation. Actually, I found that slightly more bearable than the band's version, though I still never saw it as an appropriate song for a graduating class of high school students. But that's in the past. Anyway, the band is Green Day, and the song is "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)"

  1. I hate the song and the band! The only song I could really stand from these Green Idiots was the song they did with U2 "The Saints are Coming." And to be honest that was even pushing it! Billy sounds like a whiny 12 year old and that is all there is to it. I've heard better punk music from underground artist then these guys!!

  2. Sorry Sis, but I am so happy that this wasn't my class song.
