In response to Ark's comments about adding Green Day's songs to my compilation, I'm adding Good Riddance (Time of your life) lyrcis,lyics and video as my first entry for this artist :). Why this song? It's just one of my favorites among Green Day's songs. The song is in Green Day's Nimrod album released on October 14, 1997 and got double platinum.
Also, the video won Best Alternative Video from MTV Awards in 1998 competing wtih Ben Folds Five — "Brick", Garbage — "Push It", Radiohead — "Karma Police", and The Verve — "Bitter Sweet Symphony" makes me likes it more. I know a lot of people who likes Alternative rock back in 90's loves this also ;)
As for the message of the song, it's about how fast life come and go. I also some of the lines like "Time grabs by the wrist,directs you where to go". We really don't where we'll be as time goes along, be it work or family.
Good Riddance (Time of your life) lyrcis/lyics
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth it was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.
