My dad was listening to this soft rock/ oldies station the other day while I was in the car and 'My Generation' comes on. Like the one on Kerplunk! but by someone who was obviously not Green Day. I didn't know this was a cover/ remake, who was the original by?

Also, is it true that 'Wake Me Up When September Ends' was originally done by The Eagles? Someone told me that, but I thought Billie Joe wrote it about his dad.

Any other Green Day songs remakes?

Wmuwse a cover? Liiiiies! Lies I say!
And I understand that "Brainstew" is about Billie trying to get his first kid to go to sleep at like 3AM, but my mom thinks it's about drugs...

The first line says it all. "I am having trouble trying to sleep"

I read that "Brain Stew" Was about how Billie couldn't sleep the night his son was born. o.o;;

That's kinda cute, but it's actually because his son would cry a lot at night, after he was born.
