Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong Shares New John Lennon Cover

Billie Joe Armstrong’s No Fun Mondays series returned last night (July 1) for a hump day edition.

The Green Day frontman shared his cover of John Lennon’s “Gimme Some Truth” on his Instagram page writing “This song was written by John Lennon. The first time I heard it was from one of my all-time faves Generation X!” He added that his version fell somewhere between Generation X, Billy Idol and Lennon’s original.

Listen to the song below.

Green Day’s Hella Mega Tour with Weezer, Fall Out Boy, and The Interrupters was recently rescheduled for 2021. Check out the new dates here. The band also announced a short run of European dates with Frank Carter and the Rattlesnakes and Manic Street Preachers.
