@@swolejeezy2603 You mean like Nena's "99 Red Balloons"? Or Alphaville's "Forever Young"? A lot of eighties music was actually quite dark, it seems, because of a climate of fear or something like that... TBQH, nuclear annihilation is actually in most ways a lot darker and more depressing than school shootings...
@@neolexiousneolexian6079 nah, school shootings actually happen on the reg, nuclear annihilation was a looming threat. For sure there's dark songs, but on the whole I'd say the cultural atmosphere in the 80s was more optimistic (and as it turns out, naive).
I remember watching them back in the 80s 1987 I remember I was with my mom I had my mullet my My Chemical Romance shirt great concert but so sad they broke up in 1998
Oh man, I remember when I was just seventeen back in the summer of '85, and I was in love with this girl. So I got the courage to ask her if she would go out with me and see Green Day In concert. We were on our way to the show when my Pontiac Fiero broke down. Sad to say we didn't make it to the show, but there happened to be a beautiful sunset that night, and we started singing together, and Boulevard of Broken Dreams was our favorite Green Day song. Long story short, we got married, and yes, we danced to this song in our wedding. And yes, we did get to see Green Day a few years later, but we never heard anything about them after that. Does anyone know if Green Day are still releasing new music or touring?
Who could even forget summer of '85?! This tune was plastered all over the radio. It must've appeared on Casey Kasem's Top 40 for 4 or 5 months straight that year. Such a shame they kind of fell off the face of the planet after their only other hit, synth-pop song, "World vs. World", just a mere 3.5 or so years later. As far as still releasing music, or touring, I don't think anyone has even mentioned their name in almost 30 years to be quite honest. Their singer/guitarist Billie did a collaboration with Frank Astley in Spring of '88, and also wrote and produced some tunes for The Go-Go's that same year... but he hasn't really been involved in much since then. Their bassist, Mike, did some collaborations with Phil Collins and was the touring bassist for Fine Young Cannibals for spring of '89, and later went on to open a café in California. Happened to see that he opened a Twitter account with some obnoxiously-long hash-tags to his posts, but has been on a hiatus from social media the past few years. Their drummer, I believe his name was Frank, was a founding member of some obscure goth-rock band called, "Cane and the Stubborn Stains", but due to his cocaine addiction and self-prostitution scandals, he was forced to leave the band in early 1991 after their music video for "Fun Center" was released. He did release a solo song by the name of, "Like A Rat Does Cheese", a few years later, but it hardly sold, since it was only released on 8-track. Shame to know that we'll likely never hear from these boys of '80s pop ever again, but one can only hope for a reunion show. Green Day, I hope you somehow see this message and consider getting back together for some new material, or at least a live performance of this song, one last time. Long live the synthesizer..................
Lyrics: I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's home to me, and I walk alone I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk alone I walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone, I walk a- My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me Till then I walk alone Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah I'm walking down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind On the borderline Of the edge, and where I walk alone Read between the lines What's fucked up, and everything's alright Check my vital signs To know I'm still alive, and I walk alone I walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone, I walk a- My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me Till then I walk alone Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah I walk alone, I walk a- I walk this empty street On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk a- My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me Till then I walk alone
This is so damn good, i'm very pleased with it appearing in my recommended! and holyyyyy shit the instruments are so good and smooth in a way that i can not describe without jumbling up my words. Great job my dude, it sure sounds like something that would play during a party scene in a movie from the 80's.
Man. I remember making a cassette tape of this and wearing out in the stereo if my GTO. I would cruise around to the local arcades and just hang out. I remember this girl who used to play the Mrs. Pac Man game. She always used to chew bubblegum and I swear she was the biggest Green Day fan. She even at the famous 1983 Madisoc Square Garden show. I think her name was Darla. I had the biggest crush tape and I always fantasized about getting her into my GTO and blasting the cassette with her. I never got the courage though. Now she's married to some douche she doesn't even like. Oh well. At least I have the memories.
better than the album version, by leaps and bounds. very well done. if this had come out during my childhood in the 80s, i would have been rocking the shit out of it.
I honestly don’t know why, but I’m crying. I found this song two years ago and I fell in love with it. I was alone, but I never was sad when I listen to this song. I was bullied, outcasted and straight up humiliated. Yet somehow I never cried. Now I have a beautiful girl. And I have finally came back to this song after not hearing it for a year. Thinking of her smile as I listen to this song somehow brought me to tears. Because I was alone. I was nobody. Now I have someone to love and someone who actually cares about me. And I care about her so much. I want to protect her and fight for something worth fighting for.
It almost adds up since Green Day was active since 1987 (but they were mostly a Teen Cover Band until they released something for real in 1989 (their debut album coming out in 1990)). Had they not gone the Punk/Emo Rock way, this would've been an interesting debut for a Teen Rock Band.
Facts with the part where the lyric says “what’s fuck up” instead just having a higher tune isn’t of beeping it and ruining the song like in radio stations and how that part the animation changes to the guy making a shush signal in his mouth
Oh Geez 1980 It brought the worst yet best part of my life Moving , High school and rich kids I move to Chicago and started high school again I got in trouble and had detention on Saturday Looking Pretty In Pink Went to Chat and Watt's party and saw freaking bikers there Met my Relatives the McCallisters Forgetting Kevin again but this time in New York , kid knew how to use a credit card But I'll never forget how this use to be my favorite song of the generation However I pretty sure the Johns Bender guy still has that screw from the library door .

This really does sound like one of those 80s one hit wonders
I guarantee half the songs you would consider one hit wonders just aren't
If only one song by the artist became a hit song then it's a one hit wonder.
Sounds like a track on the B-side of the hit-single, maybe
I love your profile pic 😂
princess by dawn that’s not totally true it’s if they get one song only to be a hit then fall off completely as if they never existed m
This would've probably banged in the 80's

What about sum 1941? Remember Goebels as the lead guitarist? He was fire
I remember watching them back in the 80s 1987 I remember I was with my mom I had my mullet my My Chemical Romance shirt great concert but so sad they broke up in 1998
Then they came back in 2005
My mom was huge fan
My grandma always insulting me cuz im not listening to her favourite mumble jazz singer Lil pump from 1950s
They were a highschool band in the 80s so... Yeah, you could've technically watched them if you attended their highschool
I'm glad Ozzy Osbourne left The Beatles to start this amazing band
I've found a reason to continue living.
The edge is strong with this one

They disbanded in winter of '89, citing "creative differences". There have been no albums or releases since.

Lyrics:
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me, and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one, and I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk a-
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the borderline
Of the edge, and where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up, and everything's alright
Check my vital signs
To know I'm still alive, and I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk alone
I walk alone, I walk a-
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, aaah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah
I walk alone, I walk a-
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Where the city sleeps
And I'm the only one, and I walk a-
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me
My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
Till then I walk alone
I remember seeing these guys live in the 80’s in concert. Man I miss those times....
Went to their concert in 1982. It was so fucking great.
