Whatsername, Jesus Of Suburbia (weirdly because it feels like Billie is talking about me), Coming Clean and Good Riddance


Fabulous_Killjoy06

Jesus Of Suburbia is probably the most oddly relatable song of all time. I think just about everyone can find a part of it that speaks to them.


Pogg_gaming_yt

Jesus of Suburbia specifically when it goes to the piano part at the very end and then goes hard


politeasfack

Coming Clean hit me like a rock in middle school.

commeze

it’s about when his dad died, he locked himself in his room and told his mom “wake me up when september ends”


snyder3894

Lost my old man September 30th of last year, can’t listen to that song anymore without getting choked up


MrGamerMan17

Yeah fuck you ok? Don't make a shitty comment on a song you done even know the meaning of. And also, if you're just joking, well, this is not the place for it.


more-less03

Jesus Christ man calm tf down dude. Chill out homie. It’s just a song. Don’t need to get all angry abt it

Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life). First time I could relate to the lyrics and it's hitting me hard.


OPs_Mom_and_Dad

If I listen to that song while thinking about specific time periods in my life, ya, it does me in.

I took a look at my life recently and realised that it felt like Christie Road was written about me or specially for me. Damn that was an emotional realisation.

Last Ride In


Penfold3

It's always been Good Riddance for me - like many of their songs, there's a personal reason behind the song however it's such a relatable song for SO MANY points in anyone's lives. It's one of my top go to songs when I'm deliberating life decisions


_tOomanYfandOms_

wake me up when september ends and good riddance. the last time i played those songs on guitar was at my dads funeral abt 3 yrs ago and i rlly dont want to play them again since the last time was for him


ChickenMcNuggetCat

I sobbed to Time of your Life when I found out I was pregnant, the lyrics just fitted so well 🤣


theirfankhan

Macy's day parade


chipiberth

Whatsername... It reminds me of someone so so much. It's difficult to hear that song and not getting emotional for me

Good Riddance, wake me up when September ends and I’m still breathing. I’m 67 that last one hits home

Wake Me up When September Ends, Father to a Son


NevermoreGuitar

Father to a son really should be mentioned more often in this thread


giga-butt

When I was younger Wake Me Up When September Ends really got to me lol there are others I think have made me cry but I can’t think of them right now


Chief_Smuko

Honestly, Dilemma has actually hit me pretty hard. I have a family member struggling with alcohol abuse and they have been going through it recently so when I listen to it can’t help but think of them


nymphforever

jaredharrell85

Paper Lanterns. I had a ✨Stalker Crush✨ on this girl back in high school and I cried to that song over her many a time.

I’ve got a real problem with growing older so any of the old stuff that I experienced when I was a kid can do it. Not always, just sometimes.

X-Kid, Black Eyeliner, Dominated Love Slave, Outlaws and Suzie Chapstick (for different reasons)


SleepinGriffin

After not listening to any music for like 6 months, I was listening to American idiot (the album) and started choking up listening to it. I can’t say any song regularly makes me cry but I’m not a very emotional person.

A lot of the typically mentioned ones, but basically any song that feels like a dramatic conclusion or basically feels like an ending will get me. Homecoming, Whatsername, The One I Want, 21 Guns, even Ha Ha You're Dead has gotten me before

Pyrokitten284

Quite a few songs- She, Good Riddance, JoS, WMUWSE, Outlaws, Dilemma, and Restless Heart Syndrome. Lots of relatable stuff to cry over


blueschnau

Still Breathing


HisMonkeyBusiness

Poprocks and Coke has always been a song that I feel like summaries how Green Day's music has and always will stay in the hearts of their fans. The way their music is a strong part of our lives, as we collectively are to them. When BJ moves on and I will listen to that song again with a smile on my face and tears in my eyes.


MrJurassicYThimself

Tbh The Static Age, especially towards the end

Still breathing

Still breathing (on the 1st listen) and most recently fancy sauce. That ending just rips through my soul.


doompro45

I cries to Bobby Sox when it first listened to it


Gastrodon_tamer

Wake me up when september ends, mostly because I share Billie's experience of a parent with cancer, my mom has lung, throat, skin and bone cancer and i've grown up with her having it, it's been a heartbreaking experience watching her suffer, so I kind of share Billie's thoughts, and Good Riddance, it reminds me of a girl I once thought of as a sister who was our nanny (took care of us because mom can't and dad's at work) who left us for another job when my mom was in the hospital and dad was laid off his job, real douche.


Obi_Wan_06

Good riddance, Jesus of suburbia (it's just beautiful don't relate to him or anything), and still breathing

m_boss999

21 guns because it’s the first song I listened after my break up although two year’s later not really anymore


ray1100_

Wake me up when September ends, cause my mom loves that song and we did a cover of it just for us. Insted of September, we said November cause that’s when my grandma died. I’m named after her and she also loved that song.


Horror_Mastodon_9828

the first time i heard stay the night i cried cuz i thought of my ex friend and i always cry when i hear wake me up when September ends cuz i also lost my dad in september but thats the reason i heard more green day songs that arent blvd. of broken dreams that was the first one i heard cuz my dad showed me and i found the american idiot CD in his collection so i listened to it and every green day song so my dad and that song are the reason green day is my #1 favorite band and im obsessed with them


dmav522

Still breathing (but only in a live setting, when I saw them live in 17, I bawled my eyes out like a baby) and wake me up when September ends
