I randomly remembered this radio show on the BBC called desert island discs where they bring on a celebrity and they pick 8 songs, a book and a luxury item that they could take to a desert island, so I thought it would be fun to see what you would all pick, GD related of course.
Instead of a book pick your favourite piece of GD merch. Luxury item could be anything (other than a boat/phone/anything that will get you off the island lol)
Here’s my picks:
Tracks: Whatsername, Jesus of Suburbia, still breathing, Sassafras roots, 2000 LYA, Viva la Gloria, let yourself go, good riddance
Luxury Item: my ukulele
Merch: my beloved American Idiot hoodie that I’ve had for about 10 years
I know one of my tracks would have to be redundant… while it’s not one of my personal favorites I think it would quickly become relevant if I was stuck on a desert island lol
Nice, kinda forgot about Christie Road ngl. I like seeing what ppl pick cuz it reminds me to listen to some of their other music other than my favourites every once in a while
Tracks: Paper Lanterns, One of My Lies, Basket Case, She, Geek Stink Breath, Bab’s Uvula Who, Stuart and the Ave, The Grouch, Scattered (shh I know I can’t count)
Luxury Item: A book of crossword puzzles
Merch: My cozy Welcome to Paradise hoodie I’d immediately regret bringing because it’d be too hot.
After some thinking, here are my picks.
Songs: You Irritate Me demo, 409 in Your Coffeemaker, Brat, Jinx, Black Eyeliner demo, Place Inside my Head demo, No One Knows, and Rotting
Luxury Item: a jar of pickles because I love pickles lol
Merch: my Kerplunk converse so at least I’ll be the most stylish on the island lol
Songs would be (in no order) Christie Road, Hitchin A Ride, Jaded/Brain Stew, Letterbomb, Whatsername, Longview, Bouncing Off The Wall and She. Merch would be my Dookie Converse and luxury item would be a never ending supply of chocolate but that may be cheating.
