Warning! Am I the only one?
I cannot stress enough what a GD fan I was during my teenage years. Did a heart grenade sculpture, sang wake me up when September ends (and won) at the school festival with my band, wrote lyrics, and even dreamt with Billie, Mike, and Tré more than once. That said, from all the albums I’ve listened to (from 1,039/Smoothed to 21st Century - the rest I neglected) I found Warning to be, by far, the best one. However - it is deemed as one of the worst by most fans. Am I the only one who loves it? The nostalgia in Waiting. The energy in Warning. The soothing gloominess of Macy’s Day Parade. The rebellious voice in Minority. The innocent serenade of Church on Sunday. The awakening in Deadbeat Holiday. And much more…. A fresh and well rounded album with such joy, nostalgia, mystery, depth, and hope. What’s not to like ? Am I the only one?
