Fuck Green day!!! they never been existed anyway! The HUGE difference is that Lennon wrote it with a meaning, a real meaning, and green day just cover it cause fits the situation of their fuck up country (no offence to the REAL working class heroes).

right said, Ramius..The original version is quite strong and we can identify ourselves with it sometime! Thanks to Greenday for popularizing this song again to the younger generation who would've not really listened to the original Lennon classics otherwise..when u know its a modified version of something, you feel curious to try the original one!!

totally agree with WescLove, Lennon's version was much more powerful than Green Day's. the way Green Day performed it, it just seemed like a weak and meaningless generic pop-rock song that couldn't be taken seriously.

Covers are almost, if never, better then the original. And, well this just has to be said: Green Day blows chunks!

Excellent really relates to the pressure of a young man growin up in mid suburban life, beautifully hateful(still fuckin peasents).

Great song, although it's one more time the former art student Lennon trying to create his own legend: If someone never was working class, then him. But he gave his voice to the people (especially later in the USA) which deserves a lot of respect.
