More quotes by Billie Joe Armstrong
We never fit in completely to [the punk] scene because we were writing love songs that were heartfelt and endearing. Some of the punks didn't know what to make of us, but I finally realized that was what made us punk. We sang what we meant, from the heart, and didn't worry about what anyone was going to think.
Billie Joe Armstrong
It's better to regret something you have done than to regret something you haven't done.
Billie Joe Armstrong
With my family, my sons both love music and play music, and they're really good at it.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I have no idea where my career is going. I just make the best music that I possibly can.

I think people are born bisexual, and it's just that our parents and society kind of veer us off into this feeling of 'Oh, I can't'. They say it's taboo. It's ingrained in our heads that it's bad, when it's not bad at all. It's a very beautiful thing.
Billie Joe Armstrong

Billie Joe Armstrong

Billie Joe Armstrong
What is going on in America is extreme. The youth cult, they worship youth so much it's almost paranoid. And LA is the Mecca of it all they're taking it to the hilt.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Pretty and demented at the same time, like me.
Billie Joe Armstrong
Just because you sing songs about a certain feeling doesn't mean you have to go feeling that way forever. You can sing about that for the rest of your life, but that doesn't mean things aren't going to change in your own life.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I definitely related a lot to Perry [from That's Ordinary World movie]. I liked how he put family first. I identified with the exhaustion and klutziness that comes with being a parent, and how he's just a rock-and-roller at heart. For me, it was fun to kind of imagine whether or not this could've been the path I went on, or not.

Punk is dead to anyone who didn't get it in the first place
Billie Joe Armstrong
We're gonna get high, high, high, when we're low. The fires burn from better days. She scream why, oh why? I said I don't know!
Billie Joe Armstrong
When we were making the record, I just decided, at the last second. I thought, This song [Ordinary World] makes a lot of sense, being on the album [Revolution Radio].

If me and Mike Dirnt are in the same room, it's not quite right if he's not on stage with me.
Billie Joe Armstrong
I approach playing acoustic guitar more of as a percussive instrument. It's fragile. I don't have a lot of finesse when it comes to my guitar playing.
Billie Joe Armstrong
To me, it doesn't feel like it's just another rock record that somebody put out. It feels like we taped into the culture a little bit
Billie Joe Armstrong
When I was done with the movie [Ordinary World], I felt really compelled to start working on another album. Little did I know, they were going to come out back to back.
