(Music Cut #1)

Released on this day in 1994…

this wasn’t just Green Day’s breakthrough.

It changed rock radio.

“Basket Case.”

(Music Cut #2)

Billie Joe Armstrong was writing about anxiety attacks

and feeling like he was losing his mind –

years before he understood he had panic disorder.

(Music Cut #3)

Which makes the music video

hit a little differently:

Green Day filmed it

inside an abandoned mental institution.
