The songs have many different chords than Dookie. You'll never get tired of it becausethere are 18 songs and it is 50 minutes long! Here are rundowns of all of the songs: 1. Nice Guys Finish Last- an explosive CD to start off the album. 2. Hitchin' a Ride- Another great, short song. 3. The Grouch- this song has the most bad words in it than any other song. Oh well, it's still great and very funny. 4. Redundant- a slower song that's one of my favroites. 5. Scattered- Not the best, but still good. 6. All the time- This song's pretty good but not the best. 7. Worry Rock- This song is awesome! 8. Platypus- A fast and to the point song. Good luck figuring out the lyrics cause they dont have them in the lyric book. 9. Uptight- Not as good as some of the others. 10. Last Ride in- A wonedrful all-instrumental piece. 11. Jinx- Another funny and fast song. 12. Haushinka- this song has many different guitar riffs but it's not all pulled together. 13. Walking Alone- An experimental, somewhat folk song. 14. Reject- A great song with good lyrics 15. Take Back- One of my favorites. This one minute song is great if you have just broken up with someone and you're really mad. 16. King for a day- a funny song about a boy who wants to be a girl. It's an experimental piece that has horns in it so it sounds somewhat like a ska song. 17. Time of your Life- The Band shows their soft side with this great song, which is still played on a lot of radio stations. 18. Prosthetic Head- My Favorite SONG ON THE WHOLE ALBUM! Great guitar riffs and great lyrics is why this song is my favorite. NIMROD IS THE BEST! Very possibly the best album ever created, Nimrod is just another example of Green Day's talent and versatility. Billie Joe Armstrong's lyrics just keep getting better and better, Mike Dirnt's bass playing is just amazing, and of course, Tre Cool's drumming, ever changing, is a great part of the album.<BR>Nimrod is a great cd that really led the transition from Insomniac to Warning well. It is so versatile, with ballads, a surf type song, hard metal type songs, typical Green Day music, and much more. Aside from different subgenres of the music, many different instruments are used such as harmonica, the bongos, and of course, the baseball bat. ^_^ Green Day has really matured with this album.<BR>There is not a single bad song on this cd, each one gets a 10 from me. Nice Guys Finish Last-a great song to start the cd out with, was one of the first songs that really got me into Green Day. Mike Dirnt does extremely well on the bass in this one. Hitchin A Ride-incredible, excellent song, one of their best. Although it takes a while to get used to, it is really incredible. The drumming in this is very VERY good, I know from playing it on my drums that it takes a lot of skill to get it right. The Grouch-hilarious lyrics, it's a really good, driven song, explicit, but humorous. Also has a very catchy tune. Redundant-can't say anything about it except that it's a masterpiece. It's a really beautiful song with really beautiful lyrics. You can tell what a good songwriter and guitarist Billie Joe is, what a good bassist Mike Dirnt is, and what an INCREDIBLE drummer Tre Cool is from just this one song. Scattered-just another one of Green Day's incredible songs. Possibly one of the best tunes, Billie Joe's voice really stands out in this song. One lyric that I really liked was "Story to tell and I am listening." You can tell they've grown up, because since when is Green Day listening? All The Time-I know not many people really like this song, but I'm hooked on it. It's not as catchy a tune as some others, but when you get used to it, it's really great. It's one of those songs that you'll be singing for days and days after hearing it just once. Worry Rock-Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL LYRICS! I Love it, it's a really Sweet song and it's incredible. Another song in which Billie Joe's voice really stands out. Platypus (I hate you)--A very good song, it is very hard core and although you can barely understand a word of what Billie Joe is screaming out, it's worth it. You can really tell his Emotions through the lyrics. Uptight-Possibly one of the greatest songs on the cd, the ending is incredible. The beginning verses are also very good, but what really stands out is the ending choruses, the "Uptight, I'm a nag with a gun, All Best album I've ever purchased. Green Day has been probably one of the best selling bands of the last decade, and Nimrod, though not their biggest seller, is jam-packed with great songs, and nothing but. This is one of the few albums I have heard that I can honestly say that I Love every song. "Nice Guys Finish Last" is a wonderfully catchy song, but not exactly parent friendly, followed by the slower "Hitchin' a Ride", the CD picks up again after this with a bouncy number, "The Grouch". "Redundant", though another potential hit, is the kind of song where the chorus is memorable, but it makes you mad because you can't remember the rest of song. After this, Track 5 is possibly one of the coolest songs on this CD, or that I've ever had stuck in my head. It's called "Scattered" and its filled with really neat harmonies that I still haven't mastered in my head. Track 6 is kind of a darker song, or so it sounds, but the next song, "Worry Rock" is another roller, where even if you don't play an instrument, you'll quickly learn how to pretend to. Track 8 and 10 are not the greatest. 10 is an instrumental, and 8 is a loud fast song. The best and most memorable song has to be "Good Riddance (Time of your Life)". Another, though disturbing, is "King for a Day" with some neat trumpets and trombones. "Prosthetic Head" is a very underappreciated songs. Nobody listens to it because its at the end of the CD. All the others are pretty good, but Green Day will have to work hard to top this, and From the looks of Warning, Green Day may finally have found what their looking for.
