[edit] American Idiot (song) : Pop Punk?

I don´t think that this song is Pop. Is not true punk, but if you want something besides Punk Rock, i suggest Alternative Rock, a genre that can include many others and may keep everyone happy.

[edit] Failure?

This article keeps calling this song a "failure." That's news to me, as it as been omnipresent on rock radio for over a year. Is this based on an interpretation of the chart numbers? youngamerican (talk) 14:03, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Billboard

The article says "(previous singles had not been allowed to chart)" why? Can someone explain or cite? Pnkrockr 20:32, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
