yeah, and this was before reprise signed them.. now, music that's made keeping in mind the enormous sales they're supposed to make, and i remember when i heard boulevard, i thought it was the best song green day had ever made. cuz i heard warning (the album) before that and i didn't like it at all. but then i came to know that green day was a punk band, and the first thing that came to my mind was that green day was in no way punk... boulevard's a great song but its not a great punk song, it really isn't... it was MADE for the billboard charts, clearly was...

and green day have been living off the "us doing this is the most punk thing ever" thing for way too long, they said it when they released good riddance and now when they went to the vma's or something and said "hail pop"

infact, pop music is what most people refer to rock and roll, like the rolling stones and motley crue, also known as ***-rock
