So now I may speak of the song. It is Jesus of Suburbia. A beautiful song written by Billie Joe Armstrong and perfomed by Green Day on the wonderful, emotionally impacting album American Idiot which was released in 2004. This song is 9 minutes long and includes 5 parts, Jesus of Suburbia, City of the Damned, I Don't Care, Dearly Beloved, Tales of Another Broken Home. There are 2 videos for this song, one is nearly 12 minutes long with dialogue and the other is 9 minutes with no dialogue but with subtittles.Its an amazing song, writting about the confusions, loves and hates of this young character, the Jesus of Suburbia also known as St Jimmy but I'm not going further into that today. Its about a boy, a rebel child, who's confused about our world and everyone in it. Mostly angry, he rants about everything. Its the introduction in the album to this character and his life. Its a sensational song and if you havent listenned to it yet, you should. Its angry, its real, its life in the eyes of this modern day Jesus of the streets and junkies. I am a true disciple of the Jesus of Suburbia (though only a character created by the mind of Billie Joe Armstrong he seems so real) and once you listen to this song you will think he's real too. Its amazing how the very talented Billie Joe Armstrong can make this character fit in life so well all while being a misfit. So go to the nearest record store and buy American Idiot, put it on and go to the second track of the album and listen to this beautiful master piece or watch the video bellow (this is the12 minute one with dialogue and an intro with whatsername). Its real and its true and its art. Its just so fanominal...... its undescribable.
P.S. The girl in the video is suppose to be Whatsername another character from the American Idiot album
P.P.S. This deffinitly won't be the last time I mention Green Day
