Vintage Pop Stardom: 2005 Green Day (with Eric Renner Brown)

Green Day entered 2005 at the center of popular music for the second time in its career -- but the first time in a decade. On this Vintage Pop Stardom episode of the Greatest Pop Stars podcast, host Andrew Unterberger is joined by Billboard's Eric Renner Brown to preview our upcoming 2005 Week -- with 2005-themed content coming all next week (Apr. 14-18) on Billboard.com -- with a look at the year when Green Day springboarded from its comeback album (and single) 'American Idiot' to the biggest pop hits, videos and live shows of its career -- ending the year as the biggest rock band (and one of the biggest pop acts) in the world.
