    I don't think Billie ever gets much credit for how consistently spot on his voice is even after all these years.

    Crazy how a show seen as “low brow” by many has some of the greatest time capsule performances by bands that shaped the 90’s.

      @Ryan Dahl Yeah the music is great, but would we have really needed Howard Stern? Like, especially in that episode with Dave Grohl a lot of people just thought Howard was annoying.

    The output transcends the input in songs like these, vis-a-vis Billie may have had a bitter heart but he channelled it into something practically divine.

    Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
    Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
    So make the best of this test and don't ask why
    It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
    It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
    I hope you had the time of your life
    So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
    Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
    Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
    For what it's worth it was worth all the while
    It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
    I hope you had the time of your life
    It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right
    I hope you had the time of your life

    I actually also kinda prefer this live version over the studio's one, cause it has the bitterness the song originally had and fits the style of other songs written during the dookie era, whereas the nimrod studio version has more of a nostalgic vibe with the cellos. But I like both and also that showed Billie's talent also applied on folk ballades.

    Is this Green Day or Billie as Jesse Pinkman, Mike as Skinny Pete and Tré as Badger?
