Ok, so I have a story. I was looking through my third grade yearbook, and came upon a section that I filled out in third grade about myself. Everything was normal, It looked like a nice, stereotypical third grade profile, until it said: The song I like to listen the most is ___________. I had answered St. Jimmy. Just now, I was wondering what song that was. I looked it up on TH-cam, and here I am. So I listened to greenday in third grade? Seems legitimate.
being honest the hardest part is the foot technique cause the hi hat speed is very achievable for most people if they practice for some months or years
Still my favorite Green Day song. I've got awesome memories of goofing off with my best friend in our 8th grade math class and writing the lyrics to this on the back of our school ID's.
This has to be my favourite song on the album; I’m so upset I have to sit through Are We the Waiting every time I want to listen to it digitally. Thank you for this
I first listened to this song back in 2006, I was 11 years old, and instantly loved it. Yesterday they headlined one of Rock In Rio’s days, and I was rooting for them to play St. Jimmy and they did, I was so freaking happy! The show was great, Green Day is awesome as hell
I never looked up American Idiot on TH-cam, because I've had the album since 3rd grade. I mean, you'll eventually get a little tired after that long, doesn't matter how much you like it. Then, I put it on my mp3 and was swiftly reminded that all my Green Day albums skip because of wear from all the times I listened to them back then. Pretty much all the time. Such a relief to actually hear it go the way it's meant to go, y'know?
Love this song, saw them do it at Leeds Festival 2013 and Billie did like a minute-long pause of just standing there before the "AND DON'T WEAR IT OUT!", it was great!
That's the point dude it's like a punk rock opera it tells a story. I feel like this was the last good album they made. Not a big fan of the newer stuff. I feel like it's too much image they're worried about. Miss when they would just wear whatever on stage.
@Joseph Eberhardt Exactly. For example, it seems like they always have pop acts doing the Super Bowl Half-time Show. If Green Day is ever announced to perform it, I'd record it in a heartbeat.
i remember plugging my earphones in after middleschool everyday, starting this track while running home like a crazy person. this gave me the holiday feeling everytime. (not the greenday song, more like "vacation")
Remember that time i wrote a fanfic where Jimmy was the leader of a gang called Suburbia and for whatever reason they called their leaders saints good times

TRUE STORY : I was watching the iHeart Radio show in Las Vegas Live Stream and right once I got on, this song was playing. I fell in love with Green Day ever since
I remember a while ago when i was in 8th grade, the school was having this party near the end of the year, one of the like 5. they said we could bring our own music on a disk and play it. I brought American idiot and they actually listened to me for once and put it in. All you could year was Jesus of Suburbia around the school. Got the band teacher into Green Day, Pissed off the jocks( here they are brain-dead obsessed with some shitty nature walk video) by getting rid of their pop/dubstep music, and got my first kiss. ;) Great day.
this song is underrated af, i really dont get it why does everyone ignore all the good shit? i mean, you hear these fucking musically oblivious teen girls talking about the weaker shit from green day like "boulevard of broken dreams".
+Hide yo “Thupermain” Jimmies Hey hey hey....that whole album was straight poetry. They're both good songs, though I agree this needs more recognition.
He's saying he's a son of bitch and Edgar Allen Poe, meaning he has a bitch attitude but is good with words/poetic, that or his viewpoint could be very dark.
Well, his shit was edgy as fuck, and he's usually attributed with being pretty fucked up in the head, so I can understand why he'd be an appealing character to a punk teenager.

How does tre’s arm not get tired from hitting that high hat a billion times!?!?
Muscle memory it takes a bit of time to get use to muscle memory especially playing guitar that can also be a lot with muscle memory
As a drummer that plays like this, it takes some freaking conditioning, training, and STRETCHING.

Still my favorite Green Day song. I've got awesome memories of goofing off with my best friend in our 8th grade math class and writing the lyrics to this on the back of our school ID's.
I love how the entire American Idiot album constantly references other songs in that album.
it refers to the characters of the album, since it's the story of Jesus of suburbia, later known as St. Jimmy.
it refers to other characters (jesus, jimmy, and whatsername are all characters)
So does Dookie
Lukas Axelsson Note, St Jimmy was created from Jesus of suburbia’s rage.
So it’s not Jesus of suburbia exactly it’s his rage with a form.
FaZe Echo Team it’s actually a rock opera
this is the most punk song on AI, and thats why its my favorite
Theepicr RotMG I can agree to that. such a punk song. so good
And you better not wear it out
I’d say the “I don’t care care” segment of JOS is the most punk thing on the album but this is a close second
This song is the perfect speed for my ADHD brain...
Tea.Kitty me to
It’s so perfect!!! It keeps my attention, and the beat makes it so easy to focus on instead of zoning out like to other slow music !!!!

Me: *kicks down door* "ST.JIMMY’S COMMING DOWN ACROSS THE ALLEYWAY-
This song to me is one of the more underrated songs on the album
Imagine this in the American Idiot movie. Leave it to your own imagination to think about the type of scene that this song would be in
Actually i feel like thats how its gonna be
If you watch some clips of the musical you shall know exactly what scene this is
I imagine St Jimmy selling drugs and pointing a gun to Jesus of Suburbia

I wouldn't call Green Day underrated in any sense of the word, but I wholeheartedly agree with the first part of that statement.
@Joseph Eberhardt Their only songs I've ever heard on radio are When I Come Around, and Boulevard of Broken Dreams.
@Joseph Eberhardt Exactly. For example, it seems like they always have pop acts doing the Super Bowl Half-time Show. If Green Day is ever announced to perform it, I'd record it in a heartbeat.

"I'll give you something to cry about." My favorite lyric in this song. 😂😂
