They played it as their last song of their show in Berlin!!!

I saw this, and they actually surprised me. They had a nice set and entertained the crowd quite well also.

My mom made me miss it, she turned it to REM while I was watching Green Day.

I have an MP3 of Green Day performing WATC. Can't say what show it is, though. If anyone wants it just email me.

I saw it, they were ok, nothing compared to Queen obviously, if you looked close enough, you could see that one of the guitarists was using a "Red Special" copy.

True - but it wasn't Freddie singing and they weren't trying to be Freddie so they won't sing like him

The other choice is no one hears the songs ever again - then Freddie's spirit will die if no one sings his songs

I went to a Green Day show last November, when they came to Montreal, and they did play We are the champions. I freaked out when I heard them play the intro... but I thought it was great they decided to play a Queen song for this tour. Out of all the great rock songs of the history, they choose to cover a Queen song...I love that.
yes it was plain to see, yes it was meant to be...

I've seen them live too (last May) and it was of course, included in the set.

Really cool. :^)

I personally thought that their rendition was pure shit. The piano (key board) was horrible and the whole song was song off key. It enraged me to see Queen's masterpiece torn to pieces.

come on....u expect them to sing like freddie or play in Queen's quality?
The only person that I think could be in freddie's lever was george Micheal in the tribute concert.


The great thing bout this concert was that even thou Queen wasnt there and freddie is not among us, but Queen's and freddie's spirit was everywhere. You could see performers were killing themselves and imitating Freddie to be just little better than eachother.

From Robbie to Green Day.
