Anybody else pick this up?

Not bad IMO!! I really like their voices together for a bunch of old songs...

I give it an A if for nothing else doing something outside the box...

I'm sure Billie Joe is getting a lot of flack from Green Day fans for doing something like this, but I say f,'?k em..

    I picked this up after listening to it with family on MOG.

    It's pretty funny...my niece is/was a huge green day fan. I am a huge Norah fan. And my Grandma was a huge fan of the songs. It's the kind of music to bridge the gap.

    Together we all really liked it.

    I'll have to give it a listen. I'm not a Green Day fan at all, but I love me some Norah!

    Norah is one of my favorites, and if not for her I'm not sure I would have picked it up..

    I have seen this and was wondering myself, as I to love me some Norah, worth a purchase you say.

    I got it for Christmas, It a really different album for both, but its pretty good and their vocals complement each other very well. The Green Day fans who get upset at Billy Joe, doing stuff like this, just don't get that he is a musician first and likes to do stuff outside the box on occasion.
    Main 2ch -
    BlueSound Node->Ethereal optical cable->Peachtree Audio Nova 150->GoldenEar Triton 2+
    TT - Pro-ject Classic SB with Sumiko Bluepoint.

    TV 3.1 system -
    Denon 3500 -> Dynaudio Excite 32/22
