This was the year that they played “Armitage Shanks” when nobody had ever heard it before, instead of playing one of their established “hits”. The song is incredible, it helped peek our interest for their next album (Insomniac), & took a lot of balls.
i love him so much and it makes me so sad that u can see his anxiety in this and see how nervous he is. he’s come such a long way. he’s literally a legend and will never be forgotten. not by me or anyone. i love him so so much.
I remember that VMA. Everyone was expecting them to play Basketcase, or Longview, or When I Come Around, and they freaking played Armatage Shanks. That song wasn't even released on that time. Brilliant.
Its cool watching these. It puts their maturity and advancement into perspective. Billie seems sort of nervous here, but now, he owns every room he walks into. Its amazing how they have evolved
I wanna add captions for this video because Billie babble is literally the cutest thing. It's just him filling in empty space with words instead of "uhh's" and "uhm's" haha
billie was right on the ball when he said "there's no place for competition in music". that's exactly right, music like many art forms has to be diverse and interesting in order to keep evolving, and you can't really mark any one genre or contribution above the rest imho.
roseanne is a "big woman". if i remember, GD and Beastie Boys did a medley, like the stage spun and GD was back to back with "sabotage"... but this isn't on YT as far as i can tell.
Billie was a nervous back in the day. He had a lot of anxiety. He coped by getting high a lot before interviews and getting on stage like David Bowie did.

that smirk after " I don't like cameras in my face that much" pls lord
1 fuckin' minute left!
@MarvinGuatemalanBoyFr 😭
His shyness in this explains why he was always high during interviews in the 90's.
Interviewer: "Any one of those performers that you're looking forward to?"
Billie: "No, not really."
Perfect answer.
"i dont think competition has any place in music" thankyou!
such an introvert right here, you can see his anxienty
MurderCity21 you don't know that
fran98 you don't know that he knows. #suckit
@@98fran what are you talking about
@youdamnfool Normal? He's not normal anymore.
so having anxiety makes you an introvert?
" She's a big woman, she's alright!" 😂😂😂😂
That's Roseanne! : )
"We'll see what happens."
Little did they know
Damn his voice changed a lot
and the laugh too i love the old bj laugh :DD "ehheheh heh"
This is why he sings differently, he can’t help it.
It seems like his voice got higher over the years
Because he's getting old
it’s because he quit smoking

Exactly dude. Totally caught that
Casually roasting mtv during an mtv interview, complete savage roight here

Shealyn Knettle Fame changes you one way or another. It’s a different lifestyle altogether.
- Any one of those that you're looking forward to ?
- No, not really
He's so brutally honest! XD
Back when people WERE honest... Everyone is too scared to be honest now cause of the social media repercussions 🙄
@@billybats4745 but the fact is that he's still so fucking brutally honest mate! 😎🙌🏻
HE ACTED SO DIFFERENT
Kieraisnotonamazing Anxiety, you can tell he has it here.
Years and years ago, though. Most of us will probably change about this much with time
1:06. “No not really.”Lol. Love him. He’s always so honest.
He looks just like 2014 Billie but the voice was the only difference I saw
yes aye and yeah his voice has changed hugely lol
Teeth.
This is why he sings differently now, he can’t help it, hahaha
The "we're not gonna win anything" comment had me dying XD
Oh my god....We need a second coming of 94-96 Billie.....
It looks like his anxiety is off the charts.
Looks Asian whatever you say
i don't notice it either. what would you call anxiety?
@@ricardosarin7442 if you don't know, you don't know. lucky you.
he is *SO* attractive
YES YES YES YES
Yeah them beautiful straight teeth really looking cute 😂
@@dawsondudark i think that makes it tho. like hes not perfect but he looks like an actual guy, not a wax figure
Salt and peppa... i love when he says that.
Ikr
"Everyone looks good on MTV because of something called 'soft focus.'" Damn. Almost as good as "I'm not fucking Justin Bieber..."
I wanna add captions for this video because Billie babble is literally the cutest thing. It's just him filling in empty space with words instead of "uhh's" and "uhm's" haha
Punk attitude
He does not care at all i love it
"Salt N Peppa, Snoop Dogg, Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones... you looking forward to any of them?"
"Not Really.Nope"
Man! I miss 90’s Green Day so much!
Same
2:10 *he’s so humble*
I come back to this clip now and then, he's just so damn sweet 🥲
I love how his voice got higher over time
Okay but the camera quality was amazing for 94
Gees his face is so young!
Edgy Frankie
He was 22 here
“we’re not gonna win anything” BOY...YOU GOTTA BIG STORM COMIN *snap*
He's so normal here like he didn't take any drugs so his anxiety is off the charts

Omg his voice...
1994 is iconic for green day
The realest interview yet, lol🤣
90's heartthrob if you ask me
Billie Joe seemed like such an apathetic stoner back then lol
I'm still Billy Joe Armstrong in 1994 then. And I'm 28. Fml. Lmfao!
more like a meth-head lol
“Apathy” was definitely used on a lot of dookie songs far as I remember lol
I love this man.
"Salt and peppa"
So CUTEEE ❤️ :3
He still looks the same 😂😂😂 but he has grown up so much since then.
He looks almost exactly the same but however his speaking voice is like..totally different! Also he seems nervous aww
Woah sisters voice is deep af
Billie Joe is so handsome I think I’m pregnant
Poor Billo so anxious :O
Billie*
CMissMichelle
Billo is one of Billie’s nicknames, so technically Jek was correct also.
@@JessicaH005 oh, okay. That will be my trivia for the day. A day w/o knowledge is a day wasted.
His voice was so much deeper then.
creations of my own bored mind 121 And he didn’t have as articulate as an accent.
Clearest camera that was close to Billie in '94.
ANXIETY
I can't believe how different he sounds!!!! How can someone's voice change so much??? He was already 18 it shouldn't change that much
YOU DONT NEED TO SWEAR
+Casey Dunne What he/she is saying is that he was already past the age of 18 which is typically past the age of puberty.
People still go through a lot of changes even after puberty so that's probably why.
It was the drugs for christ sake
He used to smoke. Smoking affects your vocal cords.
he sounds older here than now lmao
Glad he got used to being on camera eventually :p
Love it 😂😎💖
Best era for Billie's teeth, before he got em "fixed".
DAMMIT BILLIE WILL YOU EVER AGE
0:59 "so thats pretty interesting"
Looks completely uninterested
Pause at 2:02
22 years old
Pause at 2:02 your welcome
I'm weirdly nostalgic about how people didn't used to as good looking. Everything is so glossed over now.
They did him dirty with this angle
He looks older but sounds younger
roseanne is a "big woman". if i remember, GD and Beastie Boys did a medley, like the stage spun and GD was back to back with "sabotage"... but this isn't on YT as far as i can tell.
Green Day is the Beastie Boys if they stayed as a punk group
Oh bejezzuss how he said Salt & Peppa
what kind of jacket wearing Billie ?
He kinda looks and acts like Logic
B
HOW? Logic like the rapper?
Salt and peppa😂😂😂😂
This was so awkward poor Billie
Isabella Knutson How was that awkward, normal conversation...
Billie was a nervous back in the day. He had a lot of anxiety. He coped by getting high a lot before interviews and getting on stage like David Bowie did.
Little did he know..
“She’s a big woman”
1:13 cabelo *-------*
2:02 KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK gente o q é isso kk
Algún buen hombre que la traduzca :(
Hahah he’s so awkward nothing like when he’s on stage
Damn Billie is very interesting to hear talk
he seems so nervous rip
Yq! What A Genkus! historical dry #
Steph Curry.
Same
He does kind of remind me of him.
