Green Day - Short Biography

Green Day is a highly influential rock band that formed in California in 1987 as a power trio consisting of Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt and John Kiffmeyer, before Tré Cool replaced Kiffmeyer in 1990. The band was originally called Sweet Children and was part of the Bay Area punk scene, releasing its first songs on Lookout! Records. However, it was their debut album, Dookie, that marked their mainstream success, selling over 10 million copies in the United States. Green Day is often credited with helping to popularize interest in punk rock, along with other California punk bands.

"She" is a song by American rock band Green Day, released as the fifth and final single from their third album, Dookie. The song was written by frontman Billie Joe Armstrong, inspired by a feminist poem with the same title that his former girlfriend had shown him. Armstrong wrote the lyrics to "She" and showed them to her, but she later dumped him and moved to Ecuador. This same ex-girlfriend is also the subject of the songs "Sassafras Roots" and "Chump". The song is famous for a concert where Armstrong performed it naked, but it is one of the few Green Day singles that did not have a music video.
