Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong has released a cover of John Lennon's 1971 protest song, 'Gimme Some Truth'
The track arrived on Armstrong’s Instagram page Wednesday night, with the frontman 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 — all of which comes through in the break-neck pop-punk cover as Armstrong sneers: “I’ve had enough of reading things/By neurotic psychotic pigheaded politicians/All I want is the truth, just give me some truth.”
