@@muffy8917 Billie Joe has explained in interviews before that the song is about him having anxiety attacks and that he has suffered from panic disorders his entire life.
1:30 Billie always puts an emphasis on that they were just lucky. He always says that it was the right place and the right time and it just happend. "It's like winning a lottery"
there's a possibility he may be upset because punk bands that "make it" tend to get shunned from the underground punk scene and everyone they work with and even their friends start to hate them for being successful... that could be it.
I just love how he predicts the chorus of nice guys finish last two years before Nimrod even came out. It’s funny because in the actual song and ends up being more sarcastic, which makes sense as he was clearly joking here 😆

OMG this is the old Green Day, 90's Green Day, the real Green Day when they were Punk band.. I grew up with Dookie, Insomniac and Nimrod. I don't listen to them in 2000's until now because they're totally different!
![Green Day Interview on Videomusic Italy 1994 [part 2]](/img/1.gif)
I love how Trè is goofy, Mike is all sweet, and Billie is just extremely depressed
sounds about right
thats so real
Tre's hair in this interview is just so on point.
His hair look like trolls
I love the fact that they are so sarcastic to the interviewer
Thats Green Day for ya
Whenever Mike gets interrupted I get slightly angry
*_slightly_*
ahahah "I genuinely don't like people very much, I think people are just sorta stupid" - Billie Joe.
***** he said generally, but it was still pretty funny. xD
TO LIATWN TO ME WINE,,,,, I DRINK WINE
Why the fuck is Billie so relatable?
True
"I generally don't like people very much, I think people are just.. stupid."
Quote of the year
0:41 "with angry music about miserable teenage lives" idk why i laughed so hard at that
Probably because the description is SO wrong
@@hollyserrato3935 right Billie Joe already said the song was about his AnXiEtY like bruh😂
Welcome to the 90s understanding of music and mental health😂
Whoever wrote that was either a Boomer or a Silent Gen
'If you base your happiness on a monetary value then I think you're hurtin yourself' - Mike Dirnt, words of fire
"I've been wearing the same pair of pants since 1989"
"All of the songs on our next record are gonna be super happy"
Platypus has entered the chat
Man, Tre's hair is so on point in this vid!
literally on point
much point 👌🏼
I tried to do my hair like that once and looked like a drunk porcupine that was electrocuted inside an antigravity chamber.
YES
@@aresjones4761 lmaoo
3:00 Billie predicts Pharrell Williams future hit "Happy" haha!
CHASE BAILEY where that??
He actually predicts “Nice Guys Finish Last”
The opener track on Nimrod, their next album after Insomniac (the one they were promoting here)
Basket Case isn't about what they said it was about in the beginning.. It's about Billie's anxiety attacks.
You would know I'm guessing you wrote the song?
@@muffy8917 Billie Joe has explained in interviews before that the song is about him having anxiety attacks and that he has suffered from panic disorders his entire life.
this is why punk rockers are one of the better groups of people in this world...
God Tre looks so young
Probably because he is, lol.
So does mike tho
*They never ages*
This was when they were 24
1:30 Billie always puts an emphasis on that they were just lucky. He always says that it was the right place and the right time and it just happend. "It's like winning a lottery"
When Mike said "h.. howdy" I think my heart melted
LOL tre, 'when billies naked, his butt twitches to the music.' hahahaha
NoYbk ay " i know that because I'm behind him"
Tre - "Seven Ferraris, one for each day of the month"
*Seven for each day of the month*
1:46
Nah he said “week”
In 1987 the band was called Sweet Children, then in 1989 they changed their name to Green Day, hope this helps
I heard it was also called "condom" at one point.
@@conanrose1182 yep. they were a metal band at that time
@@conanrose1182 I didn’t know that. Thanks.
billie reaction at 4:52-4:59
lol that really made me laugh
lol I love Billies facial expression when he said "I've been wearing the same pants since 89"
Tre looks young and his voice is so adorable omg
woah. tres voice
he's a smol squeaky bean
No, he's a leprechaun.
It’s really weird 😂
Watch the 1991 interview when Mike was wearing that weird rainbow hat...
I love how modest Mike is, and I love the random shit Tré says
It wasn't "you know" back then it was "uhh" :)))) lol
It still is lol
"Out selling even REM" Damn. Now I feel old haha
it s not true
Tre looks so cute and young and AWWH!! :3
Back then, it was "uh" instead of "Y'know" XD
Okay, can we just take a moment to appreciate how perfect Mike is?
I fuckin love tre lmao
Even though Tre is the quietest one there, I literally die every time he speaks because he's so fricking funny
He wasn’t the quietest one.
tre makes me wanna cry
Tears of joy, obviously.
OH MY GOD THEY ARE SO SARCASTIC I LOVE THEM
TRE LOOKS SO CUTE ❤

Shit, I remember watching this at the time and it was amazing getting to see one of my favourite bands (at the time) punking out on UK TV!!
Wow. I could have listened to mike talk all friggin day. He knows his shit and has good values cuz of where hes been in life.
Wow that interviewer is all around beautiful, sexy accent, and not stuck up personality, need a lady like that in the future
noted
What's her name?
Dani behr
I love tres hair so much
"people are sort of stupid." same Billie, same 😂
7 Ferraris. One for each day of the week
#lifegoals
En sevdiğim Green Day röportajlarından. Hepsi çok sarkastik ve çok doğallar. Plus, interviewer'a çok güzel laf sokuyorlar haha
They are so cute❤️ I love them
Why does Mike look like an older Bart Simpson to me?
Rare interview that’s accessible for literally billions of people to view!!!!!!!
Tre is so damn funny lmao
Billie is soo cute in this vid but also sounds pretty sarcastic
4:55 BILLIE'S FACE!! HELP!!!!!!!
:51 "Dookie...meaning baby excrement!...." hehehehehe
that girl's voice is insane
I just love how he predicts the chorus of nice guys finish last two years before Nimrod even came out. It’s funny because in the actual song and ends up being more sarcastic, which makes sense as he was clearly joking here 😆
Billie lied he later said basket case woz about himself he probly didnt want ppl to know
Billie wasn't really opened back then as he is now
He's just not really an opened person in general
Tre here is omgg

look at those faces Billie makes at the beginnig:))
and i love the irony when they're talking about money... so true
great piece, thanks for posting!
Aw Tré is so adorable
I find it pretty hilarious that the sound is wrong, ´cause at some parts it seems Billie has the girl´s voice and Mike has Tre´s voice. haha.
This got me into green day
I turned off my play station and the tv went to c4 uk and i thought shes fit and i love this band
3:05 hell yeah Mike. honestly this interviewer kinda gets on my nerves, so it was great to hear them being sarcastic towards her 😂

Billie seems really upset in this video.

wow. I always thought Basket Case was about Billie Joe's own panic attacks that he had...i Always read somewhere that it was about that.
It was. He was just messing around. I’m guessing you don’t want to talk about that situation all the time.
sexiest band ever.
True that
I agreee
Dani Behr trying to flirt with them 😅
Billie Joe just cannot look at this reporter, I think if he did he would've exploded
Taylor Hemington She was quite hot, to be fair.
Tré at 0:13
