One of my favorite things that can happen is someone says something like, "Oh, I love that song, it has a bunch of different sections, like Bohemain Rhapsody."
And I get to say, "So it's a... rhapsody."
Like... that's what a rhapsody is, my guy.
Rhapsody in Blue by George Gershwin? Actually also a rhapsody. He didn't lie in the title.
Jesus of Suburbia by Green Day? I'd say... a rhapsody. Even Wikipedia calls it "a punk rock version of Bohemian Rhapsody." You don't have to do this. It's just a rhapsody that is punk rock.
Not to downplay how cool it was that Queen made a modern rhapsody so sick that it's the benchmark. I'm just saying. We can have more rhapsodies.

"Well I'm the Killjoy from Detroit, I drink from a well of rage" - Peacemaker, Green Day
KILLJOYS MENTIONED IN GREEN DAY!!! Here's an old rough concept of Killjoy!Billie Joe! I referenced Jesus of Suburbia and 21st Century Breakdown a lot for this lmao
Idk what his killjoy name would be (No I'm not naming him Peacemaker, it reminded me too much of John Cena) so it's up to y'all I guess lol. Might redesign him some day, or draw Mike and Tre next

random thought: you can tell a lot about a person based on what their favorite section of Jesus of Suburbia is

I have been listening to a lot of "suggested" songs from the last few years that are almost entirely like. 1:45-3:45.
Just put on a Green Day album.
Wondered which song was playing now, because it was a few minutes since I last checked.
It's STILL Jesus of Suburbia.
Which, at 9:08, is the second (2nd) longest song in the album.
