Who were we to wake up when September ended?

@EmilyEnigma I don't think anybody will ever forget that horrible tuneless cacophony.

@NankerPhelge i disagree, if we could forget it then we wouldn't be trying to remember who to wake up

@EmilyEnigma What I meant was that the song is too awful to ever be forgotten.

@NankerPhelge but we have forgotten or at least we have forgotten the sentiment of the message embedded within the cacophony which is typical of the society in which we find ourselves living

@EmilyEnigma What Green Day need is to get a singer with a more tuneful voice and then re-record that song so it will be more listenable. If they'd done that in the first place we wouldn't have forgotten the sentiment of the message embedded within the cacophony which is typical of the society in which we find ourselves living simply because it would be less of a cacophony. Does that make sense?

@NankerPhelge So if green day had recorded that song with snoop dog on lead vocals then we wouldn't be having this conversation because the orignal question would not have been asked in the first place. This is an interesting point that you make.

@EmilyEnigma When I said a singer with a more tuneful voice, I didn't mean some annoying rapper. I meant some bland, run-of-the-mill pop singer of the Robbie Williams ilk.

@NankerPhelge In that case how about we get a green day/little mix tribute band together and call them Little Green Mix Day and they can rerecord the entire back catalogue of both bands. Well Sorted ✅🎎

@EmilyEnigma That'll be weird. Lol :)
