I like this song. It's short enough for me to speed through a review over the weekend, provided you're ready. If you're not, just let me know when you are, I can understand when someone nominates a GAN prematurely and wants to fix it during nomination waiting; this was only up since April 24. If you'd like, you could take a look at my FAC for Fightstar. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 22:48, 5 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking it up DannyMusicEditor. I nominated it once I was done adding all the material I could find and after receiving copy-edits from the GOCE. I am available to address any concerns over the weekend. Cheers, — Yash talk stalk 02:58, 6 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • All links working according to Checklinx.
  • Copyvio isn't a big issue. The one that does use the most however, says "NME blog"...I need to confirm this is reliable. be back later.
  • All the genres you have cited should be in the article somewhere, preferably reception, and not cited in the infobox. Punk rock is already this way.
  • "Still Breathing" is missing ""s in the chronology.
  • Perhaps link "Letterbomb" to the American Idiot tracklist?
  • Did the source call the party scene in the video a "wild" house party? If not, change that because it's the personal opinion of an editor, which doesn't belong here.
  • That's all, really.
Honestly, I find myself having very little to complain about here. Good job! dannymusiceditor Speak up! 12:02, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Missing source for track listen. Otherwise great job actually. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 16:14, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry Mario, what is it you're referring to? Please be more specific. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 18:54, 11 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The Cd single and download digital have no source? MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 15:34, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
They're sourced in the body, but I suppose adding a ref tag there would be a reasonable request. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 18:53, 12 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
If they are already its fine then. I noticed some issues regarding the references, Fuse is linked twice, billboard not even once...take a closer look at that. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 13:41, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • DannyMusicEditor, I have addressed all the issues mentioned above. Let me know if there is anything more to be done. Thank you for your review. Best, — Yash talk stalk 06:01, 14 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
