20 years and it all went by in a flash ⚡The American Idiot 20th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition is out now 💣💥 Go give it a listen or grab a copy greenday.lnk.to/americanidiot20thdeluxe
My best friend passed away this past Sunday March 11, 2018. She was 55. She had suffered her entire life from type 1 diabetes that damaged her heart irreparably and in the past year her health had been declining at a rapid pace and she was scared. We were in the car this November and "I'm Still Breathing" came on. She grabbed my hand and started crying and clung to me the entire time the song played. After the song was over she looked at me with tears running down her face and said, "I'm still breathing." I'll breathe for you now, Barb. I love you.
I cannot understand how it didn't become a global hit ... the song is a never give up anthem , and in today's society with the working class people struggling to make a living I think we need more songs like this giving us hope and faith rather than making songs bragging about money and cars and sex that become top 40 hits . I don't know it's so confusing to think this meaningful song never got the chance
I had this in a playlist labeled “junkie” because it was all the songs I used to listen to while high on H. I had this one as the last song on the playlist, because it always gave me hope. If I got to the end, I was alive still and always thought about getting better just didn’t know how. I’m 2.5 years sober now and I was just looking through my old playlist and found this. I think it’s the only song I’ll keep from it. Life gets better, if you try, it can get better than you’ve ever imagined.
My god. I've just watched this for the first time in maybe 8 years? Brings back so many memories. I had just had my daughter, and looking back, I was not well. "Like a mother barely keeping it together" hit home. This song resonated so much. Maybe even gave me strength to keep going when I thought I couldn't anymore? Actually so grateful for this song. I'm still alive. 💜
Green Day is undoubtedly One of the most Genuine And Best Bands ever. The music they Produce is absolutely wonderful and mesmerizing #GreenDayIsBack They never went tbh(*tears in eyes*)
I've going through a tough time lately. I've been feeling especially bad today, all I can think of is just doing it. The moment I opened this song a wave of calmness washed down me. Thank you Green Day. I'm still breathing because of you.
Mental health is so f**king important. Too many people are ashamed and feel weak, because society is still an asshole. You can't fake a song like this, the energy is incredible and it makes me really happy reading all those comments here saying: "This song helped me". I'm suffering from anxiety disorder myself and can't say how thankful I'm for this song right now
Same. Green Day, Sum 41, Blink-182, and etc were there for me, from the very beginning, to the very end. Childhood, teenhood, young adulthood, adulthood, just throughout everything in my entire life tbh. ❤️
@sharixinsanity7134 Yeah, alongside Bayside, plain white t's and Muse, they're the bands that help me keep pushing forward in life. They shaped me into such a strong independent person that has to keep going no matter how sucky the world is
This album got me through High school and bullying, loneliness, and insecurities... ✨ I remember that i turned on the radio and there were good news, Green day was releasing a new album that year, and their new single "Still breathing" premiered in that exact moment, yup, i was on the bus, going back to my home from school, and stilk breathing started playing for the first time on the radio, and that day was bad and sad as usual, but green day made me feel better, and made me feel i wasn't alone, and i cried all the way home. 🖤✨☹️
We've lost too many good musicians and people. Chester Bennington, Kurt Cobain, Chris Cornell, Michael Jackson, and plenty more. I don't want to lose Billie-Joe Armstrong. Please stay.
"...I'm like a mother barely keeping it together..." This verse has such deep meaning for anyone who has lived with a woman struggling with mental illness.
"Are you scared to death to live." I've never cried so much at a sentence. But I'm still breathing and hopefully it will stay that way for the foreseeable future.
You keep breathing Brianna, life is a pretty wonderful gift. I have been breathing for 50+ years with beautiful family and not planning to give it away just yet.... Anyway, yes this song brought a tear to me as well. I hope we all get to see these blokes live again soon.
this song never fails to make me cry. it reminds me that even when life sucks and the world is shitty, we gotta keep breathing. thank you, Green Day. you've helped me so much. love you all. edit: also, here's your reminder that you all matter and are loved. someone, maybe me, understands what you're going through. just know that you're stronger than whatever you're dealing with. keep breathing. stay strong.
Crecí sin padre y mi mamá siempre se hizo cargo de mí. Hoy mi mamá decidió internarse por una depresión muy fuerte que la viene consumiendo hace tiempo. Ella me tuvo de joven y desde que tengo uso de razón, siempre escuché Green Day gracias a ella, ya que son la banda de su vida. Esta es una de sus canciones favoritas, y ahora que estoy sola, con solo escucharla, me hace sentir un poco más acompañada. Gracias por todo, Green Day.
You aren’t alone. This year my depression got so bad I was admitted to an outpatient program. Guess the pressure of feeling life passed me by, even though I didn’t do anything to warrant it, was too much. But I’m still listening to this song on repeat. You’re right, it’s healing. Just like Green Day’s entire discography. Anyway, hope you’re feeling better. Much love from one Green Day fan to another 🎸
@@thechaz83 I’m struggling to be honest but making it work to get better and back on track. I’m sorry all that happened. I can completely relate to your pain. A lot has happened this year and it’s mainly been awful for me. I feel like I’m just going to lose my mind.
I've almost had it all. Anxiety, depression, psych ward visit, meds, suicide attempts. Yet I'm still breathing somehow and going strong. Whenever I listen to Green Day I feel like it's speaking to my soul and helps me meditate on my trauma. It's truly beautiful poetry
This song is almost older than me, and it hits the hardest out of basically all song. This song talks about the hardest subjects, but bill, my man, wasn’t afraid
JESUS SAVES!! He saved me from depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and behaviors. I almost died in 2012 and in 2019 until I finally called on Him to save me and HE DID! Not only did He save me, but He healed me, too. Go to him and ask for forgiveness. Ask Him to be in your heart and He will come to you. Ask Him to pour His Holy Spirit onto you and guide you through this life and walk with Him. Jesus Christ died on cross just so that our sins can be forgiven. No sin is too great. Just believe in your heart that Jesus Christ died for us and resurrected from the dead. Confess with your mouth JESUS IS LORD. Call upon Him. The great I AM is coming soon! The creator of all things is soon to come! Time is running out! With love, I ask you to have faith. We all, believers and nonbelievers, will have to face His judgment someday. HE IS REAL AND HE IS COMING SOON! God bless you
@@daughterofyah80Jesus caused all my mental problems and leaving religion and becoming atheist was the thing that saved me from depression and suicide.
I have got an impression, just like anyone else. I have interpreted this as if it was a part of Billie's storyline. He entered rehab on 2012 and I suppose it had to be very hard... The fact Mike and Tre are in the studio or wherever they are without him is because he had to deal with it on his own, it was so personal nobody could help him. So Tre and Mike just waited for him to be okay, it was hard and difficult and Billie might have suffered but he succeed. That's when he arrives to the studio where Tre and Mike are. Billie had to struggle with his problem but he did it, he got better and he could return to his 'normal life' with his family and friends and band mates. The people on the video show all the phases and last with freedom. I have to admit that I love this video so much it's probably my favourite ever. Green Day are the best, this is unbelievable. Wow. (Sorry for spelling mistakes, English isn't my first language).
No matter what song Ive ever listened to and no matter what place or situation Ive been in ive never thought of or felt the need to express how a song has saved me...however this song quite literally saved me. It came out at my darkest moment on the radio and i would listen to that radio every day and this song came on every day for a while keeping my head up. Today is the first time ive listened to this song since being out from that situation and this song just absolutely washed me over with intense emotions. I cried and as corny as it is to say... Im once again thankfull Im still breaching on my own.
An amazing song with an amazing video. Showcasing Billie's struggles and relating to a montage of others with struggles of suicidal ideation (girl on cliff/soldier who leaves gun in car/depression and anxiety mother with the fun/lonely kid walking/addiction/gambler throwing his cards and depression/anxiety/addiction/suicidal ideation are all things Billie has struggled based on new interviews us lyrics. Very brave soul searching song. Mike and Tre sullen looking at the empty mic waiting for their brother to come home after he faces his demons. All the side characters have a positive outcome. This video and song can heal and unite people who are facing struggles of any kind so relatable and heartfelt. Amazing. I hope this becomes a huge success on radio and wins grammy awards and video awards. This is powerful and as Green Day fans we need to make this viral.
"I'm like a son that was raised without a father, I’m like a mother barely keeping it together" That one line has changed my life. I also lost a parent at a young age. Growing up I didn't know anyone I could relate to. The first time I heard this song I felt truly understood for the first time in years. After that I knew that no matter how alone I feel, I’m not alone.
This song is like post boulevard of broken dreams. In my early teens when i felt everything was falling apart which that song described it well. Today still breathing is fighting and waking up. Because of you Green Day, you made me realize that life isn't fair and you need a little push forward, in order to live again. After all that shit I've been trough, you made me realize who I am and what kind of pain we went trough. This song is so powerful that I drop a tear sometimes. Thank you for everything!
This song saved my life. I was being physically and verbally/emotionally abused from ages 9-14 years old. Life was hell. I contemplated offing myself countless times, attempted twice. The last was the most serious, when I was eleven. I got into Green Day at 13. I listened to this by chance, and I'm glad I did. I was absolutely miserable, just ugly crying. I had just got beat, and I heard this. It changed me for the better. Thank you, Green Day, for saving my life. I'm fifteen now, and I'm about to get adopted. Just know this: you CAN get out of parental abuse. It's hard to find people to trust, but it's possible. Have a Blessed day.
I'm sure that no-one from the band will actually see this, but Thank you. I suffered a loss when my Brother died a few years ago in the marines. It has been you that has been keeping me still on this earth, and I thank you for that. I doubt that I would still be here, or let alone in the shape that I am in now if it weren't for you. Thanks again, and keep songs like this up for others to see.
This is probably one of my favourite songs from this album, cuz it reminds me of "Wake Me Up When September Ends. Many people didn't like it cuz it didn't sound like "Green Day", but it turned out to be one of their best songs. And so will this one I'm certain about it.
Hey girl, don't ever give up and keep moving forward!:) I know how hard things can be and I have been their! But no WAY Julia Durães gives up on herself, whether it be self confidence, self love or the people around you, live for you be you and stay humble 💯✨😌🙏👌 cheers from Canada
this song is the song I look to as a survivor of a few suicide attempts. it makes me insanely glad to still be alive, life would have never gotten better if it ended there, if you're struggling currently. trust me, it gets so much better as cliché as that is. thank you for fighting for so long, I know you're tired. but you're still breathing through all this pain, and if that's not a testament for how much of a badass you are, I don't know what is
Why the hell are people commenting "*gasp* is this really Green Day?" YES, this is still Green Day. They are still fucking amazing in my book, and if you dont like some of their songs, thats fine. When you ask if this is still Green Day, it just sounds kind of stupid. Just being honest though, not trying to offend anyone
Dear Green Day, you are one of the really few bands and artists who still produce and make great beautiful songs even when most of the others singers and artists have changed their music. You simply are a LEGEND
I was raised without a father for 9 years then in 2005 I had a step dad that came into my life but, he was gone at work all the time so I still had to grow up with him being away now he’s changed his jobs now he’ll be closer now that means more step dad and step son bonding time now I’m so happy 😀 I never thought this would happen I’m so happy mostly for my mother and him though more family holidays now without him being away
@ClassiC RockeR well, my mom left my bio dad for some good reasons for bad driving, drinking problems, womaniser, anger issues, and not opened when it comes to personal growth so he’ll stay he wants to be but, It’s disappointing to me that he never wanted to spend time with after middle school I’m he used to come this way but, due to his lack of judgment he got himself in trouble with the law so now he can’t see as much as he used to which would be hardly anything he loves me but, in the tough love way type part of that reasoning is because, his upbringing as a teen that he had a step dad that bested him senseless for no reason at times but, that’s the thing my dad shows himself in different ways than most bio dads I guess he wasn’t as fortunate but, still he’s a man and he needs to grow up more if he was a man he would need to change if not then he’ll remain as an irresponsible man but, that’s his life but everything he’s done is nothing but not good things I really hope he turns himself into something better
Millie Ihnen Totally In LoVE wIth this song.. MY Thanks Are with Green Day for getting back to the sweetness from wake me up when September ends etc. I also found another band viz Dream on Dreamer. Its also really good.
This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Living through COVID with Australian lockdowns. Living in a rural area and 3/4 of my way through an engineering degree and was told I was diagnosed with epilepsy. Went into suicidal depression thinking everything had just gone to waste. Unable to drive or do anything I enjoyed. This song and Boulevard of Broken Dreams got me through that period. So proud I got myself out of that and am incredibly thankful for Greenday and their music!
Green Day is essence of my life. Green Day is energy, Green Day is my love. Green Day is just everything. This band means way too much to me to write it in words.
Rocky11 I cry listening to this song and I honestly don't know why! I hope I'm not the only one who does... Cuz that's... That's just embarrassing if I am 😭😂💦💦💦
I was just listening to Back In The USA before this, and Green Day's songs and music videos have so much meaning to them. Not only are the songs appealing to the ear and the videos like candy to one's vision, but the lyrics mean so much when you really think about them. This song speaks of times that are difficult, but still continuing forward. In their new release, Back In The USA, it speaks and shows how we are being lied to an being manipulated by everything around us. Green Day, you continue to keep breathing, because your songs bring hope, life, and reason to many people. Thank you.
i know. GENUINE good band. Along with sum 41, Blink-182 and zebrahead for example. Fun loving, but also serious bands who are genuine and good people. with actual talent
I never had a bad life, I was privileged growing up... But even I had inner demons that broke me down, I only found this song 4 days ago and I cried because it was one of those songs that really speaks to a person. It shows that there is still hope.
me too, and because I could never talk about feeling bad because I knew people had it way worse, and this song made me cry so much and I needed to hear it
I had a playlist, forget what i named it, but this was near the end, signifying i was still alive after what my father has done (beatings, crude remarks, verbal abuse) and then i had fun songs like American Idiot and like Nuvlear Family at thr ebd
I just want to say, as someone who had a rough-ish childhood, your feelings are 100% valid. This isn't the trauma Olympics, everyone struggles in life, and everyone deserves to get help and be supported through whatever they're going through. I hope you or anyone else don't let anyone try to silence you when you bring this stuff up
I wont expect a huge number of likes or replies, but this song helps with my generalized anxiety disorder. Its kinda like a musical medicine for me Thank You Green Day The best band I have ever discovered
Awww sorry to hear that bud, mine passed last may, it’s very tough, he left the earth the taught me to man up and live, it only gets harder, but if you keep him in your heart he will remain alive with you, hope you find love everywhere you go ♥️
I’m glad people are starting to appreciate it now. I feel like the Father of All album was so bad that it made people appreciate Rev Rad and the trilogy. For this song to have 16 million views now blows my mind.
1991 Green Day: 'Why don't you just leave me alone?' Still 1991 Green Day: 'Take me to the tracks at Christie Road' 1994 Green Day: 'Bite my lip and close my eyes, take me away to paradise' 1995 Green Day: 'Fucked up and spun out in my room, on my own, here we go' 1997 Green Day: 'It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right, I hope you had the time of your life' 2000 Green Day: 'These handcuffs are too tight' 2003 (Cigarettes and Valentines Album) Green Day: 'It's not considered stealing, unless you're getting caught' 2005 Green Day: 'I'm Still Alive and I Walk Alone' 2009 Green Day: 'Sing us the song of the century' 2012 Green Day: 'Gonna ride the world like a merry-go-round' Still 2012 Green Day: 'Oh baby, baby, it's fuck time' Still, Still 2012 Green Day: 'Calling all the demons, this is the season, next stop is therapy' 2016 Green Day: ''Cause I'm still breathing, 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own' I don't know why I did this LOL
Geowin Prince it's called "Still Breathing" because he went through an addiction four/five years ago that could have killed him. but it didn't. he's still breathing on his own
Most bands start sucking after a while but Green Day never started sucking. Their sound may not be the same as it was in their earlier albums but they are still an amazing band. They are forever my favorite band.
I have three moods 1.i skip through every song in my playlist 2. I let the music play with no interruption 3. I listen to one song on repeat for a week
I gotta be honest, im an old school green day fan and i didnt liked this song since the begining. But i saw green day in concert two days ago, and billie joe sang this song like....two feet away from me and now im completly in love with the song.
I was a single mom, getting my undergrad, working, and volunteering in a lab. I used to help my kids with homework over text. I would cry listening to this on the way home, just holding on until graduation.
101 Reasons why you should stay alive 1. We would miss you. 2. It's not worth the regret. Either by yourself if you failed or just simply left scars, or the regret everyone else feels by not doing enough to help you. 3. It does get better. Believe it or not it will eventually get better. Sometimes you have to go through the storm to get to the rainbow. 4. There's so much you would miss out on doing. 5. There is always a reason to live. It might not be clear right now, but it is always there. 6. So many people care, and it would hurt them if you hurt yourself. 7. You ARE worth it. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, tell you otherwise. 8. You are amazing. 9. A time will come, once you've battled the toughest times of your life and are in ease once again, where you will be so glad that you decided to keep on living. You will emerge stronger from this all, and won't regret your choice to carry on with life. Because things always get better. 10. What about all the things you've always wanted to do? What about the things you've planned, but never got around to doing? You can't do them when you're dead. 11. I love you. Even if only one person loves you, that's still a reason to stay alive. 12. You won't be able to listen to music if you die. 13. Killing yourself is never worth it. You'll hurt both yourself and all the people you care about. 14.

Would it improve their lives if you died? 17. You're gorgeous, amazing, and to someone you are perfect. 18. Think about your favourite music artist, you'll never hear their voice again... 19. You'll never have the feeling of walking into a warm building on a cold day 20. Listening to incredibly loud music 21. Being alive is just really good. 22. Not being alive is really bad. 23.

I'm like a child looking off on the horizon I'm like an ambulance that's turning on the sirens Oh, I'm still alive I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time I dodged a bullet and I walked across a landmine Oh, I'm still alive Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm? Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way away My way to you I'm like a junkie tying off for the last time I'm like a loser that's betting on his last dime Oh, I'm still alive I'm like a son that was raised without a father I'm like a mother barely keeping it together Oh, I'm still alive Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm? Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way, away, away... As I walked out on the ledge Are you scared to death to live? I've been running all my life Just to find a home that's for the restless And the truth that's in the message Making my way, away, away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way, away 'Cause I'm still breathing 'Cause I'm still breathing on my own My head's above the rain and roses Making my way, away My way to you
Great Rock Music You Don't Know I'd say its in my top 5 off the album. Basically the right side is my favorite, with the exception of Youngblood. That's the worst song they've done by far.
This song is probably one of the best I've ever heard. Every time I get depressed again, I start to wonder "What should I do next?", or I just lose all hope for something good, I just turn on this song and I feel much better I recently took a break from Green Day (about a couple of months), and during that time I felt damn bad in every way possible. People close to me began to forget about me, the only girl I loved betrayed me, and I was almost kicked out of college. But I'm still breathing There is something special in your songs that helps in almost every situation. I know that my life will not be the way I would like to see it, but with your music, I believe that everything will be fine one way or another Thank you Green Day for helping me for so many years now, even if you don't see this comment ❤
GREEN DAY IS LOVE GREEN DAY IS LIFE The first Western artists I followed ever in my life. Green Day got me into Rock and English music in general. Green Day are legends Long Live Green Day
Rus3 Sniipez Nah I'm not making my account public.. but There are many people on instagram and facebook that have met him randomly and have pictures with him.
Probably because a large ammount of Green Day fans are American Idiot and Basket Case fans. (meaning, they just disliked it because the verses are slower than the chorus instead of the whole thing being really fast tempo)
my mom died when i was only 7 and she was 33 due to a heroin overdose. my dad is not in the picture. this song gives me live to go through my days having no friends and a dysfunctional family, because i’m still breathing.
People ask how do Billie and the others look exactly like 20 years ago. Well, the answer is that... they' re Green Day. They're still young inside, they continue feeling like if they were 20 years old. So they keep the same rock spirit, and never become old. And they still look like young people. It's like if the time passes, but they're still young, they're eternal. Because their Music is Eternal.
Billie is a god, he never ages. *past* *future* AHH HE'S GROWING WHISKERS!!! HE'S GROWING!!! ABORT ABORT!!! (most videos were posted and made in 2009 so he looked the same, but he always did)
This song automatically became my ultimate never give up song. Whenever I feel down or what I'll just listen to this and remind myself that I can still breathe on my own
It's about Billie's battle with addiction Particularly with his more recent addiction to alcohol and abused prescription anxiety/insomnia medication. (Never mind all the other shit he was taking back in the 90's, which is a whole other matter entirely...). He reached his breaking point with his meltdown at the iHeartRadio music festival in 2012, and went to rehab a couple days later following the incident. He's been sober ever since.

RIGHT?! Same here! Green Day were the first love of mine and they still are.
My best friend passed away this past Sunday March 11, 2018. She was 55. She had suffered her entire life from type 1 diabetes that damaged her heart irreparably and in the past year her health had been declining at a rapid pace and she was scared. We were in the car this November and "I'm Still Breathing" came on. She grabbed my hand and started crying and clung to me the entire time the song played. After the song was over she looked at me with tears running down her face and said, "I'm still breathing."
I'll breathe for you now, Barb. I love you.
Teri Coley Adams may her soul rest in peace and im rly sorry for ur loss
😢 Oh man that's just sad! 😭
Rest in peace to your friend. As long as ones still breathing, they can hope and love. I hope you find it again.
-A Broken Soul
That brought to tears man. I'm so sorry for you

since one year my parents left me, i am kinda here on my own. Green day's songs bring some hope among this 2024 chaos in life. Love you BJA
I cannot understand how it didn't become a global hit ... the song is a never give up anthem , and in today's society with the working class people struggling to make a living I think we need more songs like this giving us hope and faith rather than making songs bragging about money and cars and sex that become top 40 hits . I don't know it's so confusing to think this meaningful song never got the chance
Rock just isn't pop culture like it was back in the day bud. Sucks, I agree with you
Field Cate I think it's a great song but everyone has different opinions
fuck to that first part. yes to the second
sorry that was to field cate
Greek Smosh one word, millenians (or however you write it)
I had this in a playlist labeled “junkie” because it was all the songs I used to listen to while high on H. I had this one as the last song on the playlist, because it always gave me hope. If I got to the end, I was alive still and always thought about getting better just didn’t know how. I’m 2.5 years sober now and I was just looking through my old playlist and found this. I think it’s the only song I’ll keep from it. Life gets better, if you try, it can get better than you’ve ever imagined.
Thats incredible man
That's awesome, stay sober!
K D I will! Thank you
You're like a junkie tying off for the last time.
Congrats my guy, you managed to pull off something most people wouldn't. Keep going strong!
My god. I've just watched this for the first time in maybe 8 years? Brings back so many memories. I had just had my daughter, and looking back, I was not well. "Like a mother barely keeping it together" hit home. This song resonated so much. Maybe even gave me strength to keep going when I thought I couldn't anymore? Actually so grateful for this song. I'm still alive. 💜
Green Day is undoubtedly One of the most Genuine And Best Bands ever.
The music they Produce is absolutely wonderful and mesmerizing
#GreenDayIsBack
They never went tbh(*tears in eyes*)
Autumn Geist This will soon be a classic
Blitzaf HD It is a classic already
Like the wonderful Steven Battelle once sung: I never left, but I'm coming back!
Vita Jansen absolutely right
People grow and change, same with bands. Wouldn't want the same 5 songs over and over on every album.
Green day never let me down.

but rick astley did 😭😭😭
I've going through a tough time lately. I've been feeling especially bad today, all I can think of is just doing it. The moment I opened this song a wave of calmness washed down me. Thank you Green Day. I'm still breathing because of you.
Mental health is so f**king important. Too many people are ashamed and feel weak, because society is still an asshole. You can't fake a song like this, the energy is incredible and it makes me really happy reading all those comments here saying: "This song helped me". I'm suffering from anxiety disorder myself and can't say how thankful I'm for this song right now
Hi friend 🤗
It's hard to describe, but sometimes I actually enjoy being mentally unhealthy. Sorta "It's ok to not be ok" situation
Stay strong I go through depression and anxiety.

Me too. Don't give up.
They don't seem to age...wtf...

So true

honestly this band keeps me going. I’m so glad they exist, and their music is so comforting to me, no matter the song
❤ their songs keep me somehow sane. I hear you
Same. Green Day, Sum 41, Blink-182, and etc were there for me, from the very beginning, to the very end. Childhood, teenhood, young adulthood, adulthood, just throughout everything in my entire life tbh. ❤️
@sharixinsanity7134 Yeah, alongside Bayside, plain white t's and Muse, they're the bands that help me keep pushing forward in life. They shaped me into such a strong independent person that has to keep going no matter how sucky the world is
This album got me through High school and bullying, loneliness, and insecurities... ✨
I remember that i turned on the radio and there were good news, Green day was releasing a new album that year, and their new single "Still breathing" premiered in that exact moment, yup, i was on the bus, going back to my home from school, and stilk breathing started playing for the first time on the radio, and that day was bad and sad as usual, but green day made me feel better, and made me feel i wasn't alone, and i cried all the way home. 🖤✨☹️
now i want official video of say goodbye ☺
Albert John ditto
Albert John yes! I love that song
its done
We've lost too many good musicians and people. Chester Bennington, Kurt Cobain, Chris Cornell, Michael Jackson, and plenty more. I don't want to lose Billie-Joe Armstrong. Please stay.
Felicitie Jaymes me neither 😭
Felicitie Jaymes rip Chester
Me neither. Hope Chester Bennington rest in peace.
Don't worry, he is come back more powerful than ever :)
@idk anymore me too
It's been a rough year. But we're still breathing.
TheIcanntspel
yup!
Yes, yes we are!!!
the upcoming 4 years (Trump) seem to be even rougher and if we are still breathing after that we can really call it a victory
YES!

"...I'm like a mother barely keeping it together..." This verse has such deep meaning for anyone who has lived with a woman struggling with mental illness.

"Are you scared to death to live."
I've never cried so much at a sentence.
But I'm still breathing and hopefully it will stay that way for the foreseeable future.
You keep breathing Brianna, life is a pretty wonderful gift. I have been breathing for 50+ years with beautiful family and not planning to give it away just yet.... Anyway, yes this song brought a tear to me as well.
I hope we all get to see these blokes live again soon.
I would like this comment, but it's at 69 right now.
I cried at that sentence too and i also cried when Billie said I’m like a son that was raised without a father
I always feel like a philosopher whenever I hear that line
I love that line sooo much. Definitely cried too.
this song never fails to make me cry. it reminds me that even when life sucks and the world is shitty, we gotta keep breathing. thank you, Green Day. you've helped me so much. love you all.
edit: also, here's your reminder that you all matter and are loved. someone, maybe me, understands what you're going through. just know that you're stronger than whatever you're dealing with. keep breathing. stay strong.
love u too
We're gonna get through this. ❤
Crecí sin padre y mi mamá siempre se hizo cargo de mí. Hoy mi mamá decidió internarse por una depresión muy fuerte que la viene consumiendo hace tiempo. Ella me tuvo de joven y desde que tengo uso de razón, siempre escuché Green Day gracias a ella, ya que son la banda de su vida. Esta es una de sus canciones favoritas, y ahora que estoy sola, con solo escucharla, me hace sentir un poco más acompañada. Gracias por todo, Green Day.
My heart died at “I’m like a son that was raised without his father"... Man went through so much because of that. Love you, billie.
I’ve been struggling a lot recently with my depression and I’m glad that this song is around.
You aren’t alone. This year my depression got so bad I was admitted to an outpatient program. Guess the pressure of feeling life passed me by, even though I didn’t do anything to warrant it, was too much. But I’m still listening to this song on repeat. You’re right, it’s healing. Just like Green Day’s entire discography. Anyway, hope you’re feeling better. Much love from one Green Day fan to another 🎸
@@thechaz83 I’m struggling to be honest but making it work to get better and back on track. I’m sorry all that happened. I can completely relate to your pain. A lot has happened this year and it’s mainly been awful for me. I feel like I’m just going to lose my mind.
Music really helps me, too.
Everything will be okay in the end, if it’s not okay it’s not the end - John Lennon
hey friend! i hope you're doing okay. i'm also in a low spot rn, but this song definitely helped. keep breathing. you matter!
I've almost had it all. Anxiety, depression, psych ward visit, meds, suicide attempts. Yet I'm still breathing somehow and going strong. Whenever I listen to Green Day I feel like it's speaking to my soul and helps me meditate on my trauma. It's truly beautiful poetry
This song is almost older than me, and it hits the hardest out of basically all song. This song talks about the hardest subjects, but bill, my man, wasn’t afraid
I will breathe green
satyam sarafi That ain't healthy xD
Green Day saved my life so many times. Love them from the bottom of my heart.
Hi I Recommend an indie rock song called 'looking into the mirror' by Robert Nix
JESUS SAVES!! He saved me from depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts and behaviors. I almost died in 2012 and in 2019 until I finally called on Him to save me and HE DID! Not only did He save me, but He healed me, too. Go to him and ask for forgiveness. Ask Him to be in your heart and He will come to you. Ask Him to pour His Holy Spirit onto you and guide you through this life and walk with Him. Jesus Christ died on cross just so that our sins can be forgiven. No sin is too great. Just believe in your heart that Jesus Christ died for us and resurrected from the dead. Confess with your mouth JESUS IS LORD. Call upon Him. The great I AM is coming soon! The creator of all things is soon to come! Time is running out! With love, I ask you to have faith. We all, believers and nonbelievers, will have to face His judgment someday. HE IS REAL AND HE IS COMING SOON! God bless you
yes he is our savior. he taught me that although home is where our heart is, everyone's heart don't beat the same...
Me too
@@daughterofyah80Jesus caused all my mental problems and leaving religion and becoming atheist was the thing that saved me from depression and suicide.
I have got an impression, just like anyone else. I have interpreted this as if it was a part of Billie's storyline. He entered rehab on 2012 and I suppose it had to be very hard... The fact Mike and Tre are in the studio or wherever they are without him is because he had to deal with it on his own, it was so personal nobody could help him. So Tre and Mike just waited for him to be okay, it was hard and difficult and Billie might have suffered but he succeed. That's when he arrives to the studio where Tre and Mike are. Billie had to struggle with his problem but he did it, he got better and he could return to his 'normal life' with his family and friends and band mates.
The people on the video show all the phases and last with freedom.
I have to admit that I love this video so much it's probably my favourite ever.
Green Day are the best, this is unbelievable. Wow.
(Sorry for spelling mistakes, English isn't my first language).
show* ooops
No matter what song Ive ever listened to and no matter what place or situation Ive been in ive never thought of or felt the need to express how a song has saved me...however this song quite literally saved me. It came out at my darkest moment on the radio and i would listen to that radio every day and this song came on every day for a while keeping my head up. Today is the first time ive listened to this song since being out from that situation and this song just absolutely washed me over with intense emotions. I cried and as corny as it is to say... Im once again thankfull Im still breaching on my own.
An amazing song with an amazing video. Showcasing Billie's struggles and relating to a montage of others with struggles of suicidal ideation (girl on cliff/soldier who leaves gun in car/depression and anxiety mother with the fun/lonely kid walking/addiction/gambler throwing his cards and depression/anxiety/addiction/suicidal ideation are all things Billie has struggled based on new interviews us lyrics. Very brave soul searching song. Mike and Tre sullen looking at the empty mic waiting for their brother to come home after he faces his demons. All the side characters have a positive outcome. This video and song can heal and unite people who are facing struggles of any kind so relatable and heartfelt. Amazing. I hope this becomes a huge success on radio and wins grammy awards and video awards. This is powerful and as Green Day fans we need to make this viral.
Wow, you really got it. Just made my day. Thanks ;)
Bill, you are obviously a Loyal Fan!
You're smart.
This interpretation is so good 👌
Bill Mcandrew you summed it up perfectly. I relate so much to this song and I love it because of that.
"I'm like a son that was raised without a father, I’m like a mother barely keeping it together"
That one line has changed my life. I also lost a parent at a young age. Growing up I didn't know anyone I could relate to. The first time I heard this song I felt truly understood for the first time in years. After that I knew that no matter how alone I feel, I’m not alone.
This song is like post boulevard of broken dreams. In my early teens when i felt everything was falling apart which that song described it well. Today still breathing is fighting and waking up. Because of you Green Day, you made me realize that life isn't fair and you need a little push forward, in order to live again. After all that shit I've been trough, you made me realize who I am and what kind of pain we went trough. This song is so powerful that I drop a tear sometimes. Thank you for everything!
well said.
"Life isn't fair... but a little push forward will help you live again "

THIS
This song saved my life. I was being physically and verbally/emotionally abused from ages 9-14 years old. Life was hell. I contemplated offing myself countless times, attempted twice. The last was the most serious, when I was eleven. I got into Green Day at 13. I listened to this by chance, and I'm glad I did. I was absolutely miserable, just ugly crying. I had just got beat, and I heard this. It changed me for the better. Thank you, Green Day, for saving my life. I'm fifteen now, and I'm about to get adopted. Just know this: you CAN get out of parental abuse. It's hard to find people to trust, but it's possible. Have a Blessed day.
Impressive
I'm sure that no-one from the band will actually see this, but Thank you. I suffered a loss when my Brother died a few years ago in the marines. It has been you that has been keeping me still on this earth, and I thank you for that. I doubt that I would still be here, or let alone in the shape that I am in now if it weren't for you. Thanks again, and keep songs like this up for others to see.
Gauge The Kat I'm sorry for your loss, best of wishes and stay strong :)
God bless you dude. My prayers are out to you!
epichalocat 2 Thanks for the support.
Gauge The Kat God bless bro
they sometimes do notice fans. Tre Noticed me on insta.
This is probably one of my favourite songs from this album, cuz it reminds me of "Wake Me Up When September Ends. Many people didn't like it cuz it didn't sound like "Green Day", but it turned out to be one of their best songs. And so will this one I'm certain about it.
What even "sounds like" Green Day =P
I love it too. If you look at it as Billie Joe overcoming his struggles with addiction, it's a powerful song.
Ali Rafiei my favorite song on this album has to be forever now because it's like the new Jesus of Suburbia. Just a masterpiece of music.
Ali Rafiei Yep fav song in album
Ali Rafiei it's m'y favorite song of the album too. The lyrics are so deep, and the music so good. This song is perfect
Honesly, no other band has been around for so long and still made such good meaningful music. Green day never lets us down
This song has helped and calmed me in many anxiety crisis, and also kept me alive. I just wanna thank.
Hey girl, don't ever give up and keep moving forward!:) I know how hard things can be and I have been their! But no WAY Julia Durães gives up on herself, whether it be self confidence, self love or the people around you, live for you be you and stay humble 💯✨😌🙏👌 cheers from Canada

three 45 year olds, still rocking in 2017. Long live Green Day!!
Ruslan Aiman and Billie still looks like when he has 20's years old
But what ive heard tha billy joe quits greenday..i hope its not true
Ruslan Aiman there 0.7536246256 years old dumbass
Guess you could say they are still breathing
Hey, what about the 50 year olds? ;)
this song is the song I look to as a survivor of a few suicide attempts. it makes me insanely glad to still be alive, life would have never gotten better if it ended there, if you're struggling currently. trust me, it gets so much better as cliché as that is. thank you for fighting for so long, I know you're tired. but you're still breathing through all this pain, and if that's not a testament for how much of a badass you are, I don't know what is
Hi I recommend a song & video called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
It's getting worser by time . Worser and worser
this song is so perfect for 2016. an awful year capped with an awful conclusion, but we're still breathing
Yeah, i totally agree with you mate.... Hope this year will suck less
Jakub Frei Chester oh god man he was my idol now I'm broke I cry at night knowing he's no longer with us why.😭
It's sad, but he is not feeling pain anymore... And i think he was a full of pain. But yeah, it brokes my heart too
FreeKickerz_Portland Is that because of trump?
yes
This song needs become the national anthem after 2020
of corse it does.
I totally agree!!!! This song is so beautiful (。•́︿•̀。)
Of course it does :)
Yes, yes it does.
I believe 2021 will be just as beautiful, Quarantine is saving the f**king world.
Why the hell are people commenting "*gasp* is this really Green Day?"
YES, this is still Green Day. They are still fucking amazing in my book, and if you dont like some of their songs, thats fine. When you ask if this is still Green Day, it just sounds kind of stupid. Just being honest though, not trying to offend anyone
Dear Green Day, you are one of the really few bands and artists who still produce and make great beautiful songs even when most of the others singers and artists have changed their music. You simply are a LEGEND

I was raised without a father for 9 years then in 2005 I had a step dad that came into my life but, he was gone at work all the time so I still had to grow up with him being away now he’s changed his jobs now he’ll be closer now that means more step dad and step son bonding time now I’m so happy 😀 I never thought this would happen I’m so happy mostly for my mother and him though more family holidays now without him being away
@@nooneexists7497 I am so sorry for your loss
@ClassiC RockeR well, my mom left my bio dad for some good reasons for bad driving, drinking problems, womaniser, anger issues, and not opened when it comes to personal growth so he’ll stay he wants to be but, It’s disappointing to me that he never wanted to spend time with after middle school I’m he used to come this way but, due to his lack of judgment he got himself in trouble with the law so now he can’t see as much as he used to which would be hardly anything he loves me but, in the tough love way type part of that reasoning is because, his upbringing as a teen that he had a step dad that bested him senseless for no reason at times but, that’s the thing my dad shows himself in different ways than most bio dads I guess he wasn’t as fortunate but, still he’s a man and he needs to grow up more if he was a man he would need to change if not then he’ll remain as an irresponsible man but, that’s his life but everything he’s done is nothing but not good things I really hope he turns himself into something better
Finally I can hear the sweetness of his voice with no hesitation! OOOH IM STILL ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!

This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.
Living through COVID with Australian lockdowns. Living in a rural area and 3/4 of my way through an engineering degree and was told I was diagnosed with epilepsy. Went into suicidal depression thinking everything had just gone to waste. Unable to drive or do anything I enjoyed.
This song and Boulevard of Broken Dreams got me through that period. So proud I got myself out of that and am incredibly thankful for Greenday and their music!
Green Day is essence of my life. Green Day is energy, Green Day is my love. Green Day is just everything. This band means way too much to me to write it in words.
Don’t listen to Marko (that other guy who responded to your comment). His opinion doesn’t matter.

Marko Jozinović Well I guess your one of the 3K people who ARENT breathing
So emotional. It shows that Mike and Trè were there waiting for Billie Joe to find himself again, by his side.
I love this band, everyday more.
I was just listening to Back In The USA before this, and Green Day's songs and music videos have so much meaning to them. Not only are the songs appealing to the ear and the videos like candy to one's vision, but the lyrics mean so much when you really think about them. This song speaks of times that are difficult, but still continuing forward. In their new release, Back In The USA, it speaks and shows how we are being lied to an being manipulated by everything around us. Green Day, you continue to keep breathing, because your songs bring hope, life, and reason to many people. Thank you.
i know. GENUINE good band. Along with sum 41, Blink-182 and zebrahead for example. Fun loving, but also serious bands who are genuine and good people. with actual talent
I never had a bad life, I was privileged growing up... But even I had inner demons that broke me down, I only found this song 4 days ago and I cried because it was one of those songs that really speaks to a person. It shows that there is still hope.
me too, and because I could never talk about feeling bad because I knew people had it way worse, and this song made me cry so much and I needed to hear it
@@ballsfartpissmychannelisdead we all needed this song.
I had a playlist, forget what i named it, but this was near the end, signifying i was still alive after what my father has done (beatings, crude remarks, verbal abuse) and then i had fun songs like American Idiot and like Nuvlear Family at thr ebd
SAME. crying right now
I just want to say, as someone who had a rough-ish childhood, your feelings are 100% valid. This isn't the trauma Olympics, everyone struggles in life, and everyone deserves to get help and be supported through whatever they're going through. I hope you or anyone else don't let anyone try to silence you when you bring this stuff up

Good job
I’m ashamed of myself not listening this back in 2016 but now I’m loving every minute of this awesome Green Day song. Green Day for life bros.
Til i die! 💚
I’m glad people are starting to appreciate it now. I feel like the Father of All album was so bad that it made people appreciate Rev Rad and the trilogy. For this song to have 16 million views now blows my mind.
No matter what music I'm listening to in 2016, I still go back to listening to Green Day, year after year... You mean everything to me.

Geowin Prince it's called "Still Breathing" because he went through an addiction four/five years ago that could have killed him. but it didn't. he's still breathing on his own
Most bands start sucking after a while but Green Day never started sucking. Their sound may not be the same as it was in their earlier albums but they are still an amazing band. They are forever my favorite band.

As a recovering addict this song helped me find my way. Green Day for life man
Struggling with depression and hopelessness on top of a meth addiction lol
I get in these weird moods where I listen to one song on repeat for like a week. Looks like this one has been chosen.

I gotta be honest, im an old school green day fan and i didnt liked this song since the begining. But i saw green day in concert two days ago, and billie joe sang this song like....two feet away from me and now im completly in love with the song.
Wednesday 136 Same man. I wasnt much of a fan of the song at first but once i saw GD preform it live in Dallas and in Brooklyn i fell in love.
i don't really like this song too :/ it sounds not so original
In light of recent events, I'm thankful that Billie's is a success story.
RIP Chester
I was a single mom, getting my undergrad, working, and volunteering in a lab. I used to help my kids with homework over text. I would cry listening to this on the way home, just holding on until graduation.
Stay strong and believe in god ,
God has a plan for everyone of us...good days will come ❤️
I think this song has become one of my favourites of Green Day.

101 Reasons why you should stay alive 1. We would miss you.
2. It's not worth the regret. Either by yourself if you failed or just simply left scars, or the regret everyone else feels by not doing enough to help you.
3. It does get better. Believe it or not it will eventually get better. Sometimes you have to go through the storm to get to the rainbow.
4. There's so much you would miss out on doing.
5. There is always a reason to live. It might not be clear right now, but it is always there.
6. So many people care, and it would hurt them if you hurt yourself.
7. You ARE worth it. Don't let anyone, especially yourself, tell you otherwise.
8. You are amazing.
9. A time will come, once you've battled the toughest times of your life and are in ease once again, where you will be so glad that you decided to keep on living. You will emerge stronger from this all, and won't regret your choice to carry on with life. Because things always get better.
10. What about all the things you've always wanted to do? What about the things you've planned, but never got around to doing? You can't do them when you're dead.

Not alone, yet isolated
@@AlexisTheBestist11 so true..
I'm like a child looking off on the horizon
I'm like an ambulance that's turning on the sirens
Oh, I'm still alive
I'm like a soldier coming home for the first time
I dodged a bullet and I walked across a landmine
Oh, I'm still alive
Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
My way to you
I'm like a junkie tying off for the last time
I'm like a loser that's betting on his last dime
Oh, I'm still alive
I'm like a son that was raised without a father
I'm like a mother barely keeping it together
Oh, I'm still alive
Am I bleeding? Am I bleeding from the storm?
Just shine a light into the wreckage, so far away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way, away, away...
As I walked out on the ledge
Are you scared to death to live?
I've been running all my life
Just to find a home that's for the restless
And the truth that's in the message
Making my way, away, away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own
My head's above the rain and roses
Making my way away
'Cause I'm still breathing
'Cause I'm still breathing on my own

Making my way, away
'Cause I'm still breathing

Lol is that MirandaSings???
I really love Green Day, and they are the only band i know that always keep's your style. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT!
María Cristina Zeledón Tinoco me 2
They sold out big time with Uno Dos and Tre. They never kept their style, but they're back with this one.
Listen here motherfathers you're a lot stronger than you think . And High 5 If you're still listening it in 2021
One of Their Best Music Videos Ever!
The song is very emotional and meaningful,probably the best song of the album...
True!
Great Rock Music You Don't Know And Outlaws is amazing
Great Rock Music You Don't Know true
Great Rock Music You Don't Know I'd say its in my top 5 off the album. Basically the right side is my favorite, with the exception of Youngblood. That's the worst song they've done by far.
Keshav Shivkumar outlaws and forever now are fucking beautiful songs love them
So excited to watch this.
I cried.
Lol
Norma J same
+Norma J Damn ninjas cutting onions 😢😭
They posted this the day before America died. Thanks Billie, America needs this badly.
Tomorrow the world ends
danisnotahamster 5sos fam?
I'mNotInsssane nah America doesn't die till January 20th. inauguration day!
+Ammioo yes.
true
This song is probably one of the best I've ever heard. Every time I get depressed again, I start to wonder "What should I do next?", or I just lose all hope for something good, I just turn on this song and I feel much better
I recently took a break from Green Day (about a couple of months), and during that time I felt damn bad in every way possible. People close to me began to forget about me, the only girl I loved betrayed me, and I was almost kicked out of college. But I'm still breathing
There is something special in your songs that helps in almost every situation. I know that my life will not be the way I would like to see it, but with your music, I believe that everything will be fine one way or another
Thank you Green Day for helping me for so many years now, even if you don't see this comment ❤
I was looking for a comment that was posted recently. I hope everything is well and I wish you the best of luck.
Hi I recommend an Indie Song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
GREEN DAY IS LOVE
GREEN DAY IS LIFE
The first Western artists I followed ever in my life. Green Day got me into Rock and English music in general.
Green Day are legends
Long Live Green Day
How tf do they not age.
they will age when they'll stop making music
it's called make up
+Chris Howell he still looks at least 10 years younger without it. I've met him randomly on street once.
+Shun jags.
Bullshit.
Pics or it didn't happen.
Rus3 Sniipez Nah I'm not making my account public.. but There are many people on instagram and facebook that have met him randomly and have pictures with him.
1k haters on a song..... why?!?!?!? This song is sooooooo goooooooood!!!!!
Maybe because people are turned off by their political bullshit.
Probably because a large ammount of Green Day fans are American Idiot and Basket Case fans.
(meaning, they just disliked it because the verses are slower than the chorus instead of the whole thing being really fast tempo)
chargerfan2 i'm sorry that you feel like it's "bullshit" for them to voice their opinions (not unlike what you are doing right now)
Because it is a horrible song, a lame balad sung by a singer with a horrible voice
+marCHILLL Are you fucking kidding me? This song is great!
This is a testimony to keep going even when all hope is lost
my mom died when i was only 7 and she was 33 due to a heroin overdose. my dad is not in the picture. this song gives me live to go through my days having no friends and a dysfunctional family, because i’m still breathing.
People ask how do Billie and the others look exactly like 20 years ago. Well, the answer is that... they' re Green Day. They're still young inside, they continue feeling like if they were 20 years old. So they keep the same rock spirit, and never become old. And they still look like young people. It's like if the time passes, but they're still young, they're eternal.
Because their Music is Eternal.

Billie is a god, he never ages. *past* *future* AHH HE'S GROWING WHISKERS!!! HE'S GROWING!!! ABORT ABORT!!! (most videos were posted and made in 2009 so he looked the same, but he always did)
Chester and Chris as well...

Green Day is one of the rare bands that get better with age. They went from a voice of a generation to timeless classics
They are still now
This song automatically became my ultimate never give up song. Whenever I feel down or what I'll just listen to this and remind myself that I can still breathe on my own
this song hits you harder when you know what it's about...
pretty much everyone gets it...
I dont
It's about Billie's battle with addiction
Particularly with his more recent addiction to alcohol and abused prescription anxiety/insomnia medication. (Never mind all the other shit he was taking back in the 90's, which is a whole other matter entirely...). He reached his breaking point with his meltdown at the iHeartRadio music festival in 2012, and went to rehab a couple days later following the incident. He's been sober ever since.
some real music after so long
yea green days better than all this other cringe modern day crap
JajajajsJAHSJAJSS AJXBS ABDBAJSBDJAJAJAJJAA JAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJAJA
Harambe was shot but is still breathing ...

Billie your songs have really helped me deal with my mental health
Best song from the new album.

+MaRkUsCoUcH 10 so where the best is??
Joshua Gideon there is no best one, they're all so good!
