‘Wake Me Up When September Ends’ – Green Day
Green Day’s “Wake Me Up When September Ends” was written as a tribute to vocalist Billie Joe Armstrong’s father, who died when he was seven years old, hence the song’s opening phrase. However, its placement as the eleventh track on the band’s largely 9/11-influenced American Idiot album, combined with the Iraq War-themed video, has led many to conclude that the song is still political in nature.
