Kill the DJ by Green Day Song Info
The Kill the DJ Songfacts says: The second single from Green Day's ¡Uno! album finds Billie Joe Armstrong proclaiming threateningly: "Someone kill the DJ, shoot the fucking DJ." Before you dial 911 and accuse the Californian trio of advocating the murder of record spinners, consider that the lyrics are not as they seem. "'Kill the DJ' is not about, you know, killing a DJ," Armstrong laughed to MTV News. "It's not literal. It's more of a metaphor for information overload." The song premiered on August 13, 2012 during Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show.
