Bullet In A Bible

Damn happy

Bought 'Bullet In A Bible', finally. For those who dunno, it's the Green Day live at Milton Keynes National Bowl DVD in 2005



Saw it a few days back at Sembawang at Compass Point. Went to buy the next day. Although it's NC16 because of the political comments made by Billie during the concert, and constant swearing in their performance, I managed to buy it without being checked. It's a damn nice concert la

I've watched it previously on youtube for a few times already, but that did not stop me for watching a few times more. I love their live performances la, and the way Billie got the crowd so excited was simply great. Tre was pretty good as well, with constant throwing of drumsticks and all sorts of facial expressions while playing

It's like one of the best live performances I've seen man. Their live sounds way better than album version lor. Tre made a comment before the start of the concert

Someone: Why are there no clouds in the sky?
Tre: Because God wants to see his favourite band again!

Green Day, in my opinion, is like one of the best punk rock band out there la. Better than bands like MCR. I mean like MCR is pretty good larh, but they do not have that factor that Green Day has, maybe I should say the charisma that they have

On a more depressed note, my phone bill totally bursted la. I exceeded my bill by 40 bucks lor. There goes all the albums which I want to buy. TT

I got addicted to the song St. Jimmy. It's a damn fast paced song. If you don't look at the lyrics, you can't hear what they are singing, but it's a really good song la. You guys should go listen to it

Green Day - St. Jimmy

St. Jimmy's coming down across the alleyway
Up on the boulevard like a zip gun on parade
Light of a silluoette
He's insubordinate
Coming at you on the count of 1,2, 1,2,3,4!

My name is Jimmy and you better not wear it out
Suicide commando that your momma talked about
King of the forty theives
And I'm here to represent
That needle in the vein of the establishment

I'm the patron saint of the denial
With an angel face and a taste for suicidal

Cigarettes and ramen and a little bag of dope
I am the son of a bitch and Edgar Allan Poe
Raised in the city under a halo of lights
The product of war and fear that we've been victimized

I'm the patron saint of the denial
With an angel face and a taste for suicidal

You talkin' to me?

I'll give you something to cry about.

ST. JIMMY!

My name is St. Jimmy I'm a son of a gun
I am the one that's from the way outside
A teenage assassin executing some fun
And the cult of the life of crime

I really hate to say it but I told you so
So shut your mouth before I shoot you down ol' boy
Welcome to the club and give me some blood
And the resident leader of the lost and found

It's comedy and tragedy
It's St. Jimmy
And that's my name...and don't wear it out!

I find Green Day really good, but I guess a lot people can't appreciate their music. Haiz. But I guess it's because they did not see their live performances. I used to see Green Day as a band that's like normal only, average music. But after seeing their live, after watching Billie, Tre and Mike play at the concert, my opinion totally changed la. They became my favourite band. Go youtube and search for Bullet In A Bible. I'm sure you guys will love their music more after watching their live =)

Current Favourites.

The Killers - Read My Mind

On the corner of main street
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I'm falling behind

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go, can you read my mind?

It’s funny how you just break down
Waitin' on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin' my spine

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you jump
Tell me what you find?
When you read my mind?

Slippin’ in my faith until I fall
You never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again
She said
I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cause I don't shine if you don't shine

Put your back on me
Put your back on me
Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
When you read my mind
