La banda estadounidense de Punk Rock, originaria de Berkeley, California y formada en 1987 por Billie Joe Armstrong y Mike Dirnt, a los que se sumó, un año más tarde, Al Sobrante para fundar Sweet Children, que sería renombrada más tarde a » Green Day», que ahora nos trae el tema «Boulevard of Broken Dreams» inluida en el disco «American Idiot».
El título del álbum es una parodia de American Idol, un reality estadounidense, y también está dirigido como una critica a la administración Bush. La intención del CD es la de ser una ópera punk rock, similar a otros álbumes como The Wall de Pink Floyd. Como con The Wall, hay intenciones de adaptarlo a la gran pantalla o como musical, sin mas preambulos escuchemos.

[Letra]:Boulevard of Broken Dreams
Disco: American Idiot

I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know were it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
I walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Ah..ah..

I'm walking down the line
That divides me somewhere in my mind
On the border line of the edge
And where I walk alone
Read between the lines
What's fucked up and everything's alright
Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive
And I walk alone
I walk alone I walk alone
I walk alone and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone

Ah..ah..
I walk alone and I walk a-

walk this empty street
On the Boulevard of broken dreams
Were the city sleeps
And I'm the only one and I walk a-

My shadows the only one that walks beside me
My shallow hearts the only thing that's beating
Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me
'Till then I'll walk alone.
