Tables are messy and some information is incorrect. 24.71.246.81 00:24, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
(september 13, 2006) I think that there are some live albums missing in the discography. I'm not really into the band, but i'd say at least "God Bless Amerika" and "Boring Days In Paradise".

[edit] Song Positions
There seems to be some incorrect information in the "Charted Singles" section which keeps appearing. Can we cite some sources? 210.50.189.54 04:57, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Yes. I just did, above. When i was young, on the Top 40 Show (I think it was Kasey's Top 40, before he returned to American Top 40), i did indeed hear "When I Come Around", "Brain Stew/Jaded" and "Good Riddance". Also look on those songs' Wikipedia pages. They should tell you when they hit the top 40 if all all. Also www.billboard.biz. Doc Strange 13:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Information on the Song Posistion sources
I just got some more information: I'm pretty sure of myself that the band's only Top 100 success came from American Idiot. What the Wikipedia sites for the singles say:
- Basket Case: Top 40 Mainstream - #16. This chart is different than "Mainstream Rock" since on that chart it charted at #9
- When I Come Around: Top 40 Mainstream - #2
- Brain Stew/Jaded: It hit the top 40 without Jaded
- Good Riddance (Time of Your Life): This song definately hit the Top 40.
- Minority: Another song that hit the Top 40, but no chart on the singles page
Meanwhile, at www.billboard.biz, i clicked on the "charts" tab, selected singles & tracks, and at the second of the bars on the page put "Green Day" in for "artist". Here's what it came up with: unfortantly, i was not a member of the site, so i could not click on the dates. I'm not including the songs from "American Idiot" or "The Saints Are Coming"
- Adult Top 40 - 4/14/2001 - "Warning"
- Adult Top 40 - 1/27/2001 - "Minority"
- Adult Top 40 - 1/30/1999 - "Time Of Your Life (Good Riddance)"
- Hot 100 Airplay - 11/28/1998 - "Time Of Your Life (Good Riddance)"
- Hot 100 Airplay - 11/29/1997 - "Hitchin' A Ride"
