NEWS: Green Day -- Saving Lives.

MUSIC: Green Day -- Saving Lives.

A nine-year-old who entered a coma after a pretty serious car accident, when hearing Green Day he came out of the coma.

As the boy's father told NME.com ...

Although there's been no statement on this from camp Green Day, the band's spokesperson said they were very happy to hear the news.

Awww bless, nice to have something light and fluffy to read. Makes a change from 'so and so has just murdered 500 people in the Middle East' or 'George Bush wishes to ban abortion/drinking/gay marriage/breathing'

an hour long coma? are they sure he wasn't just sleeping?

heh, two week coma.

Ahhh.. didn't read the article in the link.

That makes a little more sense.

More suprising though that the parents knew what the kids favorite track was. Can't say my parents would have known what my favorite GWAR song was. Maybe they could have ball parked it though...

They have healing powers.

They're like Jesus.

More likely is that the parents got it wrong and that the kid was waking up to tell them he hadn't liked Green Day in years. He's probably humiliated, the poor kid!

i love green day. fuck the haters.

great story, by the way.

i second that

If green day could pull him out, then it was a "too weak coma"

I love green day...yeah I doubt my mom would know my favorite tracks...but...my favorite song are on different cds...afi...the killers...pretty girls makes grave...frank sintra...

Jesus of Suburbia, even! I wonder if this kid lived in the suburbs.

I love Green Day. I'd come out of a coma for Green Day.
What a neat story. Good for the boy (and his family) on pulling through.

Side Note: Has anyone else noticed the older Billy Joe Armstrong gets the more eyeliner he seems to wear?

Coz the chicks think it's hot.

I saw this article somewhere and I was tempted to post it just so I could use the title, "Boulevard of Broken Comas". I felt like a genius for about two seconds. Man I'm lame.
