green day changed. in a good way, it's pretty funny to compare their old albuns and the new ones, you know, to see how they matured, and grew in so many ways. both technical and emotional ways. green day rulz
I hate all the people who complain that Green day "new albums suck" or "they're not the same anymore". Just don't listen to the music and stfu if you don't like it.
In school a girl liked me she always touched me and hugged me all the time she always tells me your so cute I love you then on Monday I came in to school her and another guy we're going out but she still smiles at me and touches me but every time I see them together this song plays through my head because I guess I actually liked her back
One of my best friends LOVES 1D, I love Green Day, Fall Out Boy etc, and while I don't listen to her music and she doesn't listen to my music, we both just accept it, that's the sort of music we like and we don't have to like the same music! I don't know why people can't get their heads around it. It's music, get over yourselves, yknow?
i feel so bad for billie joe! poor of him, rememers me of a friend who his father died when she was 3 years and she got a step father. But she isn't as billie joe, billie joe had a rough life! i always drop a tear in this song! I LOVE GREEN DAY! 1,030 SMOOTHED OUT SLAPPY HOURS IS THE BEST ALBUM EVER!!!
@masterofjustice88 well, i mean he had an album when he was just five, it was called... look for love? or that was his first song, but as sweet children ( aka greenday) i think this was their first song...
But I respect both and love both for different reasons. One is a legend the other newer but both help me through everything. If I choose one and not the other, I fail myself.
green day is my all time fav band but i still enjoy 1D they have catchy tunes, you don't have to hate a band to show how much u care for another band :P
@masterofjustice88 it IS the first song BJ ever wrote. FOR THOSE WHO THINK THINK THAT "LOOK FOR LOVE" WAS THE FIRST: Billie Joe DIDN'T write that song! it's the first song BJ ever recorded.
@gnosticcarebear its not there first album was called green day and they got rid of there first drummer when they were still sweet children they had drummer try outs and thats when they met trey
this song isn't about billie joe's mom's new boyfriend, its meant to be like a "you're gonna lose that girl" sort of thing. He even said so in a recent interview. Its on green days vevo chanel (its the one thats like an hour and a half long O.O)
You're right about Tre not being the drummer but actually this is from their first album when they first changed their named to Green Day after the song with the same name.
After his father died(Billie), his mother married a man whom her children disliked, which made Armstrong retreat further into music. Armstrong dedicated a song to him called "Why Do You Want Him"
I love this song and Billie Joe wrote this beacause his father died when he was only 10 and his mother re-married and he and his siblings disliked the guy and Billie wrote this. Then in 2003/2004 he wrote Wake Me Up WHen September Ends and it adresses his father(Andy Armstrong)s death. And its really sad.
hey,anyone that didnt know(most people) why do you want him is NOT about billies mom, "its about wanting to be with somone and they wanna be with somone else,yaknow." -billie joe armstrong.
It sort of sounds like he's saying "Why do want ham?" Well I'll TELL YOU why I want ham, Billie. IT TASTES GOOD
+steeve kruger listening to this makes me laugh now
ur dumb lmao
LMAO
くそワロタ (Japanese slang)
I've been listening to green day since i was a little kid , im almost 15 now and love them as much as i did the first time i heard them
Wow looks like you left without a trace. But seriously do you still have access to this account?
You're around 27 now, crazy
I can't belive Billie wrote this when he was 12. It's fricking amazing!
He wrote it when he was 14. But, close.
Ben with The Hardkore Punk Projekt wtf jim’s comment is from 7 years ago
14 actually
I know this band for 15 years now and I still love them. I was born in 1991.
Everyone talking about how this is about a crush... This is about Billie's mom dating a new guy after his father died and Billie hates the guy
It isn't about his stepdad.
source: Billie Joe himself
damn dog, that's deep
billie said it's about a crush
...
first verse about "calling you on the phone"; you've been exposed as a big PHONY
green day changed. in a good way, it's pretty funny to compare their old albuns and the new ones, you know, to see how they matured, and grew in so many ways. both technical and emotional ways. green day rulz
I like both old and new. New song is more catchier but old songs are better as a song
I hate all the people who complain that Green day "new albums suck" or "they're not the same anymore". Just don't listen to the music and stfu if you don't like it.
They're not growing up, they're just burnin' out
+Rain Tails I fucking love you
to me they immatured rather than matured. this is their best album
its amazing how much the band and their songwriting has matured since this was recorded
In school a girl liked me she always touched me and hugged me all the time she always tells me your so cute I love you then on Monday I came in to school her and another guy we're going out but she still smiles at me and touches me but every time I see them together this song plays through my head because I guess I actually liked her back
in ur face
I miss fourth grade too
What a bitch happened to me to females enjoy doing that,be careull
@@Home-u6g 😂😂😂
If you are a big fan of Green Day but don't really like their latest album, you were never a real fan of them at all. Best band ever, Green Day!! :D
yer videos are loving works of art. thank you
One of my best friends LOVES 1D, I love Green Day, Fall Out Boy etc, and while I don't listen to her music and she doesn't listen to my music, we both just accept it, that's the sort of music we like and we don't have to like the same music!

One of the most beautiful song of gd; i love it.. Since I was 16!!
I could easily see this going on insomniac
Man, I wish it was because I don't have their first album currently :( I have Kerplunk up to Revolution Radio (except for Shenanigans and Tre).
Not even close
Not really
No, like not all
@gnosticcarebear thissssssssssssss, i was 12 in 94 too, fell in love on the spot. and i LOVE the first 2 cds so much.
I'm 17, as old as the album Dookie, and I loooove this album and this song!! Green Day for life!!
So now that you are 27 how do you feel?
i feel so bad for billie joe! poor of him, rememers me of a friend who his father died when she was 3 years and she got a step father. But she isn't as billie joe, billie joe had a rough life! i always drop a tear in this song! I LOVE GREEN DAY! 1,030 SMOOTHED OUT SLAPPY HOURS IS THE BEST ALBUM EVER!!!
i love you green day!!!
this is the first song that armstrong wrote, when he was fourteen....real magic
Listen to the old stuff....can't go wrong!!!! ;)
@anotherturnapoint or even more! it's such a beautiful song!
@kylewise14 :) yea! we all make mistakes, thats what makes uus human, and I respect you for admiting that! :D
CHEERS! :D

@masterofjustice88 well, i mean he had an album when he was just five, it was called... look for love? or that was his first song, but as sweet children ( aka greenday) i think this was their first song...
I just had an eargasm!!!!!!!!!
-luv u Billie-
I’m so angry at myself. There are so many old but amazing Green Day songs that I’ve barely paid any attention to until now.
wow, this song can really relate to me right now so yeah, it makes it that much more awesome, and pretty hard to do to the best song evar!!!!!!
But I respect both and love both for different reasons. One is a legend the other newer but both help me through everything. If I choose one and not the other, I fail myself.
Keep up the good work guys. I'm sure you can make something of yourselves one day.
Lesson learned. This nice gal shall not finish last anymore.
@masterofjustice88 Yeah, it was the first his song, it is about his mother and stepfather.
im 12 and ive been a green day fan 4 3 years the first song i ever heard was wake me up when september ends
This is when they had john as their drummer. Wow they were young
This is the first song that he wrote........ I find it beautiful.........
green day is my all time fav band but i still enjoy 1D they have catchy tunes, you don't have to hate a band to show how much u care for another band :P
@MeganLuvsGreenDay What do you think about Espionage lyrics?
just got friend zoned for valentines day time for this on loop
I feel u
Well said.
Really, cool man
@masterofjustice88 it IS the first song BJ ever wrote.
FOR THOSE WHO THINK THINK THAT "LOOK FOR LOVE" WAS THE FIRST:
Billie Joe DIDN'T write that song! it's the first song BJ ever recorded.
AMAZINGGGGG
Good times in 1994!!! Hey Ho Lets GO!!
@gdfan45 he didn't write look for love. he just sang it . (i think)
@masterofjustice88 i thought the only of your the first song he ever wrote. he said that.
@vacantloser Awesome!
it is the first song he wrote at an age of 14. About his mother and his step father. try to read his Biography.
@cyclonethefox132 wtf do you mean 2007? This was Billie's first song, which was in the 1980s or sumthin
He wrote this when he was Fucking 12!!
i think he was 14 but still amazing
+mensur ecer he was fucking 8 when he wrote this
He was 2 btw...
Loui putterill no fuckin way
Strawberry Cough Drops yeah
they where green day during this period its on there album called 39 smooth GREEN DAY... nuff said but you are right about tre
hell yeah!, this is good! :D
@gnosticcarebear its not there first album was called green day and they got rid of there first drummer when they were still sweet children they had drummer try outs and thats when they met trey
i relate to this song so bad!
I like the way you think Mr Medinger
This describes my situation perfectly right now. Kinda sad though xd
At only 14. True genius
@Brigister dude reread what you wrote, you had a typo and said that billie said it was true that he wrote it to his mom
@johnrjmoore He left Green Day to attend college. Then the amazing Tre Cool took his place :D
@masterofjustice88
The original name was Why do you love him, but yeah
@jennroy i've read the same lines before? is that wikipedia?
@blunklaura he wrote this song when he was 12 this was like the first song he wrote.
@masterofjustice88 he wrote look for love first when he was 5
this song isn't about billie joe's mom's new boyfriend, its meant to be like a "you're gonna lose that girl" sort of thing. He even said so in a recent interview. Its on green days vevo chanel (its the one thats like an hour and a half long O.O)
You're right about Tre not being the drummer but actually this is from their first album when they first changed their named to Green Day after the song with the same name.
Whoo! I'm number 200! =D
Danke ;)
@ilyjoesphadam you're absolutely right, :)
Happy 20th Birthday 1039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours!!!
BJ wrote it when he was 14 it's the first song by him
14!! What a young age!
my girlfriend broke up with me and is dating someone right now :( thanks Green Day for helping me :D
Why do you want him? A song dedicated to his mom and his stepfather who were dating, who Billie didn't like his stepfather
@blunklaura
ur such a big fan that you dont know the first "album" lol
on which album is the song?
After his father died(Billie), his mother married a man whom her children disliked, which made Armstrong retreat further into music. Armstrong dedicated a song to him called "Why Do You Want Him"
@straty899 hell yea
@whatsername1313 haha i just saw that on that interview he did :)
Linlaur, I know you make lyrics but I was thinkin' about karaoke, is it possible?
which program did you use ?
ıt sounds good
is the end of the solo exactly the same as in only of you?
@masterofjustice88 no his first song was look for love at 5 years
@blunklaura yes it's his first song ;)
it's from their 1st album 39 smooth...
Haha take that Directioners!!! xD
I love this song and Billie Joe wrote this beacause his father died when he was only 10 and his mother re-married and he and his siblings disliked the guy and Billie wrote this. Then in 2003/2004 he wrote Wake Me Up WHen September Ends and it adresses his father(Andy Armstrong)s death. And its really sad.
@DarkGuitarKid ooops, thanks dude, i meant "that's not true" XD
Thumbs up if when you listen to this song, you wanna cry and feel bad for Billie Joe and wanna tell him you love him?! GREEN DAY rocks!!!
hey,anyone that didnt know(most people) why do you want him is NOT about billies mom, "its about wanting to be with somone and they wanna be with somone else,yaknow." -billie joe armstrong.
WHY DOES 1D COME UP ON EVERY MUSIC VIDEO THATS NOT THEIRS >:(
1:40 Best fucking solo!!!
who wrote all the other songs before this one??
Green day helps me with certain problems. But 1D helps me with who I am and helps me love - something that's hard for me.
quick before they lay eggs!
@gotenkrocks yeah.. you got it right ;)
@harlobell 1039 smoothed out slappy hours .
just wondering... what happened to Al Sobrante? lol
@blunklaura lol dude this is the first song he made xD (Bj Armstrong)
I can't belive he wrote this when he was like 10yr!!
