Billie, if you read this, thank you so much for making music the way you do. I'm entering my second year of university and your music has been by my side for as long as I can remember. Every high, low, and every mental point between those extremes, Green Day or any one of the side projects has had a song for me to relate to and jam with. I just hope you get some of the reflected feels back at you with how many lives you touched :)

Are you me? Because I feel the same way.

[@awells7271]

This is exactly how I feel. Green Day has a song for every mood and emotion. You can always find a song to relate to. It doesn’t matter how old or young you are, if you can relate to a song, listen to it. Green Day has touched so many lives. ❤️

[@stok3dplan3t62]

Billie, please let me know you read this.... you have been in my life way back in the early days, I saw you in Gillman street when I was very young. I moved to Australia with my family. I became heavily addicted to drugs and this is where you saved me. All I had was my backpack and my discman. Plus 5 things. 1000 smooth, kerplunk, dookie, insomniac and nimrod. The only things I never sold for speed and cocaine. I played you from 1 disc to another then repeated. Nights sitting at train stations with my eyes bugged out listening to songs of the same thing, especially dookie and insomniac. The only thing that kept me alive was green day. It’s like it was my escape world. I was never alone. I’m now a dad and have a good job, new car , home and friends. But my biggest friends will always be you, mike and tre. I’m serious I’m in tears writing this I feel so close to you. Green day saved my life.

Some have said that Billy Joe Armstrong's voice sounds "nasal." That's not what I hear. The thing I noticed from the very beginning is that Billy Joe's voice is over- the-top scarry PERFECT. He hits every note with PERFECT pitch no matter how fast he sings. He nails each note clearly without swooping up to it, and in a millisecond hits the next note PERFECTLY. This guy has perfect pitch, almost super human. Its not easy for any singer to pull that off consistently... and live... especially when you're also the lead guitar player!
