| | American Idiot (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | "American Idiot" is a song by American pop-punk band Green Day, and is the first single from their ninth album, American Idiot. | | | However, it should be noted that the appearance of "American Idiot" on the US singles charts occured just prior to Billboard Magazine's inclusion of internet download purchases into their Hot 100 chart data, which would have made a significant difference in the song's peak had it benefitted from the new chart tabulation system. | | | "American Idiot" became Green Day's first Top 5 single in the United Kingdom, reaching #3, and peaked at #7 in Australia. |

| | American Idiot by Green Day Songfacts |
| | American Idiot (The song) is just a portion of the album, which when put together tells a portion of the story of the album, similar to Pink Floyd's "The Wall". | | | It's too bad that the first single, American Idiot' is the simplest song on the album, and totally unlike all the other songs considering that two of them are 9 minute plus punk rock opera's. | | | American Idiot is what punk rock is about, if you don't believe me, try listening to The Sex Pistols for a while and hear real punk, not watered down emo crap. |

| | Produced by Rob Cavallo, American Idiot is not only Green Day's most ambitious album to date, but also perhaps one of the most audacious efforts in the history of punk. | | | Green day american idiot is an OUTSTANDING CD if you dont have it get it number 1 (dont wanna be an american idot) is the best song on the album (and st jimie) | | | Inferences aside, you could argue that American Idiot is a suspect device--a punk concept album/rock opera primed to blow up in the faces of the ruling right-wing American classes but which could just as easily leave splattered egg on the faces of the insurrectionists. |

| | Tower Records - American Idiot [ECD] [Explicit Lyrics] - Green Day |
| | The release of their 2004 album, AMERICAN IDIOT, reinforced the fact that this band is a cheesy band for pre-teen girls that think this cheesy music is punk. | | | American Idiot is the first album I have heard in a very long time that is awesome from beginning to end. | | | Influenced by such first-generation bands like New Kids on the Block, the group introduced cheesy pop disguised as "punk" to a new generation, and the award-winning record DOOKIE managed to perfectly capture the mindset of a Boyband generation calling their cheesy music "punk". |

| | Green Day: American Idiot: Pitchfork Review |
| | If they had been, they'd have heard some of the grit and dynamics that gave birth to a much wider sonic palette on American Idiot, the band's first album since, and unquestionably their most ambitious to date. | | | "Jesus of Suburbia" and the accompanying epic "Homecoming" are American Idiot's summarizing ideological and musical statements. | | | Ultimately, American Idiot screams at us to do something, anything-- a wake-up call from those were once shared our apathy. |

| | Green Day : American Idiot - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
| | American Idiot is one of Green Day's best Albums, but I still love all of their other albums. | | | American Idiot is a very exciting c.d to listen to, and all of the songs are great! | | | The aforementioned rock opera, American Idiot, isn't anywhere near as bad as it could have been, but it's a far cry from the post-punk, critique-of-American-society Tommy that Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong was so clearly aiming for. |

| | Green Day: American Idiot (2004): Reviews |
| | American Idiot is one of the most politically volatile albums to come out since the ascension of the Accidental President. | | | Structured as a rock opera complete with 9-minute-plus songs and a somewhat complicated storyline, 'American Idiot' is the Berkeley punk band's first album in over four years. | | | Concept or not, American Idiot is still decent fodder for a mosh pit, a luagh and a sob session. |

| | American Idiot Review Green Day Reviews @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com |
| | American Idiot is without a doubt a surprise album that has come out of Green Day, a band that I have personally always passed on as just a punk band with fast songs that are fun to play. | | | Released in 2004 close to the US election, American Idiot was meant to tell the people not to listen to the biased reports of FOX and CNN, and go out there and vote on their true feelings. | | | American Idiot is like an introduction, it's like a political statement, Jesus of Suburbia shows his life, how he grew up. |

| | Produced by Rob Cavallo, ‘American Idiot’ – the first new studio album from the band in four years - is not only Green Day’s most ambitious album to date, but also perhaps one of the most audacious efforts in the history of punk. | | | Centred around two five-part, nine minute epics (‘Jesus Of Suburbia’ and ‘Homecoming’), ‘American Idiot’ is an expansive and intimately crafted concept album, detailing the alienation and disillusionment of the American citizen under Bush’s post-War On Terror administration. | | | ‘American Idiot’ is classic Green Day – raging with the aggression and infectiousness that has typified their biggest hits and best loved material. |

| | Nude as the News: Green Day: American Idiot |
| | American Idiot, the album, is a deliberately Tommy-esque tale of an upper-middle-class nobody driven by boredom to madness and Messiah-hood, only to briefly be redeemed by love (possibly) and ending predictably in suicide (maybe). | | | At its heart, American Idiot isnt a political album at all, its an album that makes much more sense for such hooligans-turned-family-men to be making. | | | American Idiot has its weak points that awful title track, no pauses between songs (come on, we need a little time to process all of this) and Billie Joes longtime tendency to pull up just short of saying what he really means. |

| | Green Day: American Idiot - PopMatters Music Review |
| | American Idiot is a work of staggering ambition, made all the more impressive by the fact that they make it all look so damn effortless. | | | There were four long years between the release of Warning and American Idiot, and in those four year's you could have been forgiven for believing that it looked as if Green Day might be close to the end of their strange and unexpected ride. | | | Before I received my copy of American Idiot, I saw a half-hour television performance that the group recorded for the Fuse network. |

| | Barnes & Noble.com Music - American Idiot -- Green Day - CD |
| | The album American Idiot is the return of Green Day with a new image and new songs. | | | These are just the clearest touchstones for American Idiot, but reducing the album to its influences gives the inaccurate impression that this is no more than a patchwork quilt of familiar sounds, when it's an idiosyncratic, visionary work in its own right. | | | And one of the truly startling things about American Idiot is how the increased musicality of the band is matched by Armstrong's incisive, cutting lyrics, which effectively convey the paranoia and fear of living in American in days after 9/11, but also veer into moving, intimate small-scale character sketches. |

| | Given that ‘American Idiot’ the single is a lively pop punk ditty that would not have sounded out of place on their barnstorming debut album ‘Dookie&;, the Green Day die-hard could be forgiven for immediately rushing out to buy ‘American Idiot’ the album. | | | ‘American Idiot’ is, without a doubt, a ‘concept’ album; the songs tell us a story, with certain themes recurring as the album progresses. | | | However any reports of the band’s demise have been greatly exaggerated, as demonstrated by the excellent first single, ‘American Idiot’, from the new album of the same title. |
