As much as I try to find the words to describe my feelings towards this band, I can't. I'll never stop loving them, they mean so much to me. I can't thank them enough for everything they've done for me.
Saddest song of GD 🥺😭 gorgeous lirycs, Billie Joe is a poet and the music is so nostalgic... Everything about this song makes You feel so deep inside, the weigth of life
That's right. to me, the song wake me up when september ends is indeed a sad song because it is about his father Billie Joe. But this Whatsername song is even sadder because it’s about the feelings and memories we once had with someone, and we’ve also forgotten who that person is. That’s sad and painful at the same time. Just my opinion, though.
@@beckettmaffeithe trilogy is completely underrated!!! I think the only reason people hate it is because it’s so different. Sure, it doesn’t really sound like Green Day but it’s pretty good imo
+Shishi Yang Well the lyrics are pretty sad. Its about a guy and a long lost love, a relationship that has ended a long time ago leaving only regretful memories in his mind. He was obviously hurt by the break-up and "made a point to burn all of the photographs", however, he still remembers her face even though the name's been erased by the time that passed.
+FuriousBird007 This isnt about just a guy. Its actually about Billie's ex girlfriend. That girlfriend is whatsername in the concept of the american idiot album and Billie represents st jimmy-jesus of suburbia.
@@AlexToti Aye. A lot of the songs in American idiot were about Billie's past. For example. Wake Me up When September Ends is about the summer/autumn his father died
He puts so much energy and emotion into every performance - he gives 150% at each show. Every time I see this band I think it can't get any better than the last show, but, you know, it always does. Best band of all time.
I like green day but if your talking record sales then I'm sorry but the beatles comes 1st the beatles are the best selling rock band of all time, but don't get me wrong green day are gd at what they do
This song means so much to me. The reason why is because I used to have this best friend. We used to hang out and talk every day, but that all changed when she became more and more rude to me. I decided to ghost her, since she's done so much to me, and everyone around her. The sad thing is, she was the only person who I had the best memories with, and I fell in love with her, but she ignored me. She was a terrible person, and she caused my depressive episodes. but as this song goes, "And in the darkest night, If my memory serves me right, I'll never turn back time. Forgetting you, but not the time"
I was there when this video got 1.000.000 Views, I will be there if it hits 2.000.000 Views! Green Day makes your soul feeling good and feeling bad. Green Day IS emotion!!! Green Day is revolution. Green Day can make me happy for just 10 Minutes a day. But these 10 Minutes are the most awesome moments of my day, again and again!
green day is an amazing live band :) like they really make it a SHOW . its not just them playin music like other bands and thats what i love about them.. and even when they get serious and play the songs, they sound amazing like this vid :)
I almost(key word is almost. I don't think I can even cry anymore...) cried when I watched this. It's such a touching song and Billie's so passionate, I always get kind of emotional when I listen to their music, especially when they're performing live.
Why at 3:30, they don't do the "GO, GO, GO, GO" part the first time, but they do it the second time. They always do that while performing Whatsername live, and it kinda bothers me because that's one of the best parts of the song.
Habibi Hassan sometimes things that sound good on the album don't sound good live, sad fact is that part, although great, was probably edited to sound quieter, so just doing the end bit is better in the long run
This song takes me to another time and a different space in history of my life.. Just relating it to when I was 18 and first saw them live. I treasure that concert and keep it deep inside, even more than the 2 other times I saw them live. Green Day means a lot to me, and so does this song
five stars are simply NOT enough to describe this performance of this great band and even more this fucking amazing perfomer! LOVE YOU TO DEATH guys! keep going cause we really need your music!!!!!!!
He is drunk I’d say but he’s not as drunk as you think he is because when he gets the other guitar you can hear him saying “we’re in D” I believe so he’s drunk enough to play this one but not drunk enough to forget the key it’s in
why always the good people have to be on the otherside planet. i love green day so much they changed my life COMPLETLY i meet them thats why im trying my hardest in life i will always remember what bj told me
To put in perspective how old this RUclips upload is, Green Day was still about a week away from playing the final concert of this tour in Melbourne Australia.
Thought I ran into you down on the street Then it turned out to only be a dream I made a point to burn all of the photographs She went away and then I took a different path I remember the face but I can't recall the name Now I wonder how Whatsername has been Seems that she disappeared without a trace Did she ever marry old Whatshisface? I made a point to burn all of the photographs She went away and then I took a different path I remember the face but I can't recall the name Now I wonder how Whatsername has been Remember whatever It seems like forever ago Remember whatever It seems like forever ago The regrets are useless in my mind She's in my head, I must confess The regrets are useless in my mind She's in my head so long ago, go, go, go And in the darkest night If my memory serves me right I'll never turn back time Forgetting you but not the time

spero di poter assistere a un loro concerto prima o poi!!!!!! e se non dovessero venire più in italia...allora vuol dire che andrò io da loro!!! li inseguirei ovunque green day i love youuuuu
...I'm aware that it's about Amanda. He legitimately was sad because he was about to conclude the American Idiot tour a few songs after this one, not because it's an "emotional" song.
he is, look up any live performance of this song, he breaks up every time, same for wake me up when September ends, he can hardly hold his emotions in every time he performs those songs.
@A7xMan55 That's true and I've note that in the lastest show he used a playback for vocal. That's just what I think ,because his voice was so perfect and when he said something extra like an ''oh yeah" his voice was completely diferent.
@august121995 Green Day normally plays in Half-Step standard tuning, but this song is Drop D. So retuning on stage would require retuning every string.
1. he is drunk
2. he puts all his emotion into this song, every time, that's why it's a masterpiece :)
Thats the Punk Rock all about
he's always drunk :(
@@Chilean1995 he’s not always drunk, just.......
Well okay, he is always drunk
@@mxnsterx_😂😂
But such an amazing song and he does such a great job
You can just tell when an artist really puts his/her heart into a certain song. This is one of those songs. God bless.
him
@@giftedshowboi5762 they know that but they mean artists in general not just Billie :)
Yeah, the listening experience would be a little better if he wasn’t drunk off his ass though lol
He was drunk but still nailed it
@@xxmyharturhandzxxdon't we use the male pronoun to generalize when theres women and men?
Billie looks like he'd cry if Whatsername continues on a loop. Besides being drunk, you could really see how the song means to him.
Wow ... Can't believe this was uploaded in 2005 ... damn
What the fuck I just realized. Shit now your comment is 8 years old. Time flies man
@@devinschwartz7596Dude I wasn’t born in 2005, 2011, actually, but still it being 18 years ago is insane
This song is my everything
RUclips was less then a year old at this point.
😊
😢😢😮🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Insane to think it’s almost been 20 years now…
I really can't believe this was uploaded 15 years ago, it must've been one Of the first 10,000 videos on RUclips!!
Actually, you might be right!
As much as I try to find the words to describe my feelings towards this band, I can't. I'll never stop loving them, they mean so much to me. I can't thank them enough for everything they've done for me.
Same. Jesus of Suburbia became my personal anthem when I left the religion of my youth. It felt like the words were written to me and for me.
do you still love them
God I wish I could have been in high school in 2005
Zepp Dude 33 same!!!
going to the 'American Idiot world tour' would of been awesome! :(
Zepp Dude 33 hah! I was take that you little shits!
I graduated High School in 2005. It was an experience for sure.
2005 im 15..
Saddest song of GD 🥺😭 gorgeous lirycs, Billie Joe is a poet and the music is so nostalgic... Everything about this song makes You feel so deep inside, the weigth of life
Actually it’s Wake Me up When September Ends
@@jacobnelsen2786 I got an overdose of that one 17 years algo, but I understand how you feel
That's right. to me, the song wake me up when september ends is indeed a sad song because it is about his father Billie Joe. But this Whatsername song is even sadder because it’s about the feelings and memories we once had with someone, and we’ve also forgotten who that person is. That’s sad and painful at the same time. Just my opinion, though.
It’s not even close to being the saddest song on the album, let alone their saddest songs. I’m sure that it has their saddest “liyrcs” though.
@@jacobnelsen2786 and christie road
I cried in nostalgia and awesomeness GD ROCKS ON FOREVER!!!!!!
Rock Jesus JESUS CHRIST!IS THAT YOU?
Justin Alexander the best band of this world dude.. so many feelings..
Green Day doesn't have ANY bad songs. They're all so good... Better than good. OUTSTANDING AMAZINGNESS!!!!
11 years ago I would agree. Their latest album is trash now. No more old school Green Day :(
@@ShadelessGhost we're not forgetting about the trilogy now, are we?
@@beckettmaffei oh God no 🤣🤣 just a handful of the trilogy are alright (at best) to listen. GD starting declining at 21st Century Breakdown imo.
@@beckettmaffeithe trilogy is completely underrated!!! I think the only reason people hate it is because it’s so different. Sure, it doesn’t really sound like Green Day but it’s pretty good imo
@@ShadelessGhostAnd Saviors?
green day is honestly so good live I wish I could see them
I saw them live a few weeks ago with Fall Out Boy and Weezer
Same👍🏼😉
whenever he plays this song, he looks sad.
+Shishi Yang Well the lyrics are pretty sad. Its about a guy and a long lost love, a relationship that has ended a long time ago leaving only regretful memories in his mind.

Shishi Yang ...he looks wasted.
it's a damn good ending to an album aswell.
@@AlexToti Aye. A lot of the songs in American idiot were about Billie's past. For example. Wake Me up When September Ends is about the summer/autumn his father died
This song always gets me so emotional
alicia howlter ahhhh same, also phandom 💞
This video is 10 years old now, time really flies
Hahaha 11 years
12 years now D:
13 years*
14 years
And this concert was 15 years ago
This hits directy at my heart since I was a teen
He puts so much energy and emotion into every performance - he gives 150% at each show. Every time I see this band I think it can't get any better than the last show, but, you know, it always does. Best band of all time.
I like green day but if your talking record sales then I'm sorry but the beatles comes 1st the beatles are the best selling rock band of all time, but don't get me wrong green day are gd at what they do
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgettin u but not the time
Maybe the best 4 lost love lines ever
This song means so much to me. The reason why is because I used to have this best friend. We used to hang out and talk every day, but that all changed when she became more and more rude to me. I decided to ghost her, since she's done so much to me, and everyone around her. The sad thing is, she was the only person who I had the best memories with, and I fell in love with her, but she ignored me. She was a terrible person, and she caused my depressive episodes. but as this song goes, "And in the darkest night, If my memory serves me right, I'll never turn back time. Forgetting you, but not the time"
damn now i inderstand what the lyrics meant
@@chocosheepart3328 in Billie's pov its about his ex called 'whatsername'
Billie Joe's voice is one of those precious ones that sound too good at live concerts.
Green Day is the best live band.
THIS and Homecoming my favourite songs of American Idiot.
(I also love Shoplifter, but it's a rare song)
I remember watching this video back in 2005. Should I begin to feel old?
I was there when this video got 1.000.000 Views,
I will be there if it hits 2.000.000 Views!
Green Day makes your soul feeling good and feeling bad.
Green Day IS emotion!!!
Green Day is revolution.
Green Day can make me happy for just 10 Minutes a day.
But these 10 Minutes are the most awesome moments of my day, again and again!
Una de las mejores canciones de green day
*La mejor
my all time favorite song!!!! love GREEN DAY
green day is an amazing live band :) like they really make it a SHOW . its not just them playin music like other bands and thats what i love about them.. and even when they get serious and play the songs, they sound amazing like this vid :)
I finally found this song ACTUALLY being played live, and Billie is a bit drunk and hitting some wrong notes, lol
I almost(key word is almost. I don't think I can even cry anymore...) cried when I watched this. It's such a touching song and Billie's so passionate, I always get kind of emotional when I listen to their music, especially when they're performing live.
Who’s still listening in Dec 2020 ;)
I am
@federicosorrentino1826 June 2024
Why at 3:30, they don't do the "GO, GO, GO, GO" part the first time, but they do it the second time. They always do that while performing Whatsername live, and it kinda bothers me because that's one of the best parts of the song.
Go go go go Jhonny B. Goode jaja
Habibi Hassan I agree, there's something missing
Habibi Hassan sometimes things that sound good on the album don't sound good live, sad fact is that part, although great, was probably edited to sound quieter, so just doing the end bit is better in the long run
Its called loop.
Habibi Hassan its still good doesn't have to have everything the studio has
This song is underrated
Gonna see them live in Berlin soon! Can't believe it. Truly a dream come true... been waiting for twenty years!
I remember that uts was my first CDROM that i get by my own, Its means everything to me.
This song takes me to another time and a different space in history of my life.. Just relating it to when I was 18 and first saw them live. I treasure that concert and keep it deep inside, even more than the 2 other times I saw them live. Green Day means a lot to me, and so does this song
his whole heart is put into this song, and that's why it's one of the best emo songs of all time, hell, one of the best songs of all time
Love somemuch this song. Every year still better❤ since high school to 2024 Green Day Forever
five stars are simply NOT enough to describe this performance of this great band and even more this fucking amazing perfomer! LOVE YOU TO DEATH guys! keep going cause we really need your music!!!!!!!
still watching 2017... and more to yrs to come to watch this beautiful memories of greenday.
Love this band 24/7.
Since I was 14, I'm 45 now....
I love this song !!
One of the best of the group.
He's Hammered Lol. but it makes him sound so good. Who's Here in 2020?
You gotta be hammered to get through this one man
Yo estoy en 2050. Todavía es una buena canción
He is drunk I’d say but he’s not as drunk as you think he is because when he gets the other guitar you can hear him saying “we’re in D” I believe so he’s drunk enough to play this one but not drunk enough to forget the key it’s in

He's in perfect condition :v best condition ✊😔
why always the good people have to be on the otherside planet. i love green day so much they changed my life COMPLETLY i meet them thats why im trying my hardest in life i will always remember what bj told me
Tré, Mike and Billie are gods. Don't know what I would do without them
To put in perspective how old this RUclips upload is, Green Day was still about a week away from playing the final concert of this tour in Melbourne Australia.
Most powerful sad song ever 😞💔
Probablemente de los primeros videos subidos a RUclips, Green day es legendario 🤘🏻💚
My all time favorite song from them
Same.

Forgetting you but not the time..Green Day the best..there isn´t more word.The best!!

my favorite love song
This song live, in acoustic, is just epic. So priceless.
P.S. Damn, Mike is so hot.
This has to be one of my favourite green day performances ever
Thought I ran into you down on the street
Then it turned out to only be a dream
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
Seems that she disappeared without a trace
Did she ever marry old Whatshisface?
I made a point to burn all of the photographs
She went away and then I took a different path
I remember the face but I can't recall the name
Now I wonder how Whatsername has been
Remember whatever
It seems like forever ago
Remember whatever
It seems like forever ago
The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head, I must confess
The regrets are useless in my mind
She's in my head so long ago, go, go, go
And in the darkest night
If my memory serves me right
I'll never turn back time
Forgetting you but not the time
Why?
De las bandas con excelente performance en vivo! Excelente video!
It makes me cry!!!
My favorite song😍

Matt Navarra yeah I know. but it's so sad to watch him being so sad, y'know?
Matt Navarra or he's just really fucking tired
Charlie Stevens there was a girl in highschool he had a crush on but he never asked her out, he wrote the song the judges daughter about her

Beast!
One of my all-time-favourites
Me emociona la cara de Billie Joe, en un momento parece que va a llorar , yo me emocione un poco !!! T.T ♥

Does anyone else feel like the sad guitar chords hit them somewhere ? :’/
First Green Day Video On RUclips
Billie looks sad because this is one of the last songs he played on the American Idiot tour.
It was also the last song recorded on the album.
i love this song
its so awsome
Fucking song, made me cry. I dont wanna let him go :(
This song says so much...
I was 5 years old when this video uploaded and now I'm 18.
@august121995 Green Day normally plays in Half-Step standard tuning, but this song is Drop D. So retuning on stage would require retuning every string.

Riccardo Maione yep
