Homecoming, the second musical epic of this album along with Jesus Of Suburbia, is honestly just as good as Jesus Of Suburbia in my opinion. I praise both of these tracks heavily, not so much because the parts themselves are brilliant but because the whole song is very well …

After following the musical epic of Homecoming, I genuinely believe that Whatsername is the best way that Green Day could’ve ended this record, or story I should really say. Whereas Homecoming was really just ten minutes of excellent writing, I really have no other way to put it, Whatsername …

Stay Too Long, for me , shows the more upbeat side of Plan B’s nature. If you think he only does down beat or deep stuff this is a real head lightener for you. It’s bright from the start and dare I say it, chirpy and catchy.
