Maybe this is just a coincidence but.....green day covered the song the kids are allright from the who........a contradiction for the offspring - the kids arent allright, or just a coincidence

I saw it, and the name might be a rip off, but the songs are different. Greenday's sounds bad.

its hardly a coincidence - they covered my generation for one of their first EP's and being quite a major influence on their sound, it doesn't strike me as anything out of the ordinary

Sure doesn't... I doubt Greenday would make covers, of The Offspring least of all.

Why that? Offspring covered Basket Case live for a few times

They never did it fully did they? And the ones I heard were more joking around. They never seriously covered it.

"Ok now we're gonna play our hit" Dexter say. *they start playing Basket Case*

yes they were just joking around, like they also did with songs by weezer, led zeppelin, lynyrd skynyrd, black sabbath and guns 'n roses

I think we can safely say the offspring had heard the who's the kids are alright when they wrote the kids arent.

Exactly. And on the site it says it's the cover of "The Kids Are Alright" by The Who.. man they suck at spelling, that's not even close to The Offspring :rolleyes:
