Best Songs On Green Day's Dookie
Basket Case is without a doubt the best song off of this amazing album! The energy it gives you and the fact it's so simple to play on guitar. Along with When I Come Around this stands out from the other ones!
This song takes place in a mental home. Guess what, they found files of old patients and found deep scratches in the walls. This song is the best in the album.
Along with When I Come Around, She, Burnout and Having a Blast. This would have to be my favourite off Dookie. So upbeat and so easy to get into.
I agree that Basket Case is just way too overrated. Not a BAD song, just overrated. This song captures the punk spirit of Dookie more than any other. Easily the best song on this album.
Who knows a song about being bored can be good. this should be 1 basket case is overrated but still good this is probaly my favorite punk rock song
Basket Case is so OVERRATED! This is number one, this is one of the best Punk songs of all time.
This song makes everyone and everybody know it's the best song on dookie CD. It's way better than their single Basket case, Long view and she. Man vote this up to the place of basket case...
Best song on this album more catchy then long view, basket case and when I come around... It's guitar bass is also really awesome...
Catchiest chorus of all the Green Day songs, and a great instrumental portion to top it off. This was one takes the cake, not by much, but it does.
I prefer this baseline to any other Green Day song. Not too aggressive, not too complicated, simply perfect for the song. greed Welcome to Paradise and Christie Road are harder to play, but they lack the consistency of When I Come Around. Mike is a true Genius. The lyrics in my opinion can be interpreted in many ways. Its quite funny if you think of it from the perspective of a pervert, "I heard you crying loud" "you know where I'll be found, when I come around" "its me just on the prowl" "you can't' go pushing something if it's just not right"
Billie must be screaming in silence cause you can't hear his beautiful voice which is why this song isn't in its rightful no. 1 position
I'm my opinion, it's overrated by the Green Day fan base but underrated overall, really a great song.
Not just one of the best songs on Dookie, probably one of the best GD songs of all-time
This song is Punk. It defines what Green Day is. 20 years has gone by and people still don't understand how good this song is. Longview showed how good Dirnt was at the Bass. But in my opinion this song showed how great Tre Cool is at the Drums! Best song off the album.
Dookie is a punk album. Burnout is the most punk song on the album. Just search up the lyrics
I'm not growing up, I'm just burning out
And I stepped in line to walk amongst the dead
The lyrics are classic Green Day. Should be too spot in my opinion, although the whole album is great
This isn't my favorite dookie song, Longview is but it needs to be higher on the list, this song just rocks,no question
I listen to F.O.D all the time and never get bored of it, people think it's too quiet, but that's because they don't hear the main part and that's where it just gets awesome. The quietness is like a buildup to that heavy guitar and bass part near the end.

FOD is an Amazing song. The only problem is that it is in the same track as "All By Myself" which is not one of Green Day's great songs. The wait time in between the two songs drives me crazy, but FOD is definitely underrated.
Love it! It needed my vote more than Welcome To Paradise did. It tells a good story with an awesome beat! :D
My favourite from the album! A amazing song.
Voting this cause it should be higher
Amazing bass solo. The guitar picking it up slowly then building up into what sounds like an awesome mess, is so good. Better yet, it slows down and leads to the drums of longview. Awesome song.
Best song from this great LP. And Church on Sunday and Nuclear Family are instrumentally based on Sassafras.
For me, much underrated song.
By the way I also play the drums and this is one of my favourite!
Anyone? One of the best songs? Anyone agree? It has such a kickass bassline and drum solo! My band covered this song! I play drums, it kills. :D
This and longview are my favorites on the album
It's the third song called like that that I know...
Probably my favourite tune from the album, but y'know that's just preferance.
I found out what it takes to be a man... Now mom and dad will never understand
Super underrated song, not the best but is really relatable and good
The most underrated from Dookie. Hands down. No question.
One of my favourite song from this album and from Green Day. Best song, it tells story of losing Friends in a fight...
I damn love Emenius sleepus. Although longview might be their best song, this needed my voice more.
Written by mike and my favorite! WRITE MORE SONGS MIKE DIRNT
Something you weren't expecting. Quiet and slightly funny song by Tre Cool
They were obviously all hammered or stoned when they recorded this
A true masterpiece. Beautiful string section
