I love the band - love the song - will “eat waffles if waffles are for breakfast “ (Ed would know what I mean ) but dear God :angry:
this forced sing along sucks all the momentum out of what is a perfectly grand peak in the original version !!!
you can even hear all the crowds sing the missing verse “ everything has chains “...!
no need for an artificial “yeah yeah” chant ...
If you agree , simply give me a thumbs up - original CORDUROY IS FUCKING BRILLIANT !

    yea yea yea, I like it when they change up the songs and evolve, some are better than others :)
    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    1000 percent agree. Liked it the first time but I didn’t want to hear it every time. Just like when they changed Garden, interesting at first but don’t mess with perfection

    Keeping it random and not doing it EVERY time would be quite a positive change. I like it, but it gets old fast if it is done every time.

    It’s really a pointless addition . The crowd is all over that song from the start !

    It’s funny… I can handle some call-and-response singalongs (eg, Daughter, Better Man) but hate it with others (eg, Corduroy, Not For You, Do The Evolution). Not sure why I can tolerate it with certain songs but not at all with others.

    Yeah. I’ve tried to listen to a few live shows from Green Day but all of those heyyoo’s are pretty annoying.

    I like it when it's not every show and happens randomly. Just like DTE change up. Just keep it spicy.

    I'm not sure I've ever heard Not For You have a singalong... that would be odd.

    It's just a bunch of call-and-responses  - like "awayawayo" and "yaya yaya" - that usually come before the "all that's sacred" line near the end of the song. I believe they did it a lot in 2006 and a few times in 2011/2012. At least that's what I've heard on the boots I've listened to.
