Time Of Your Life (Good Riddance) - Green Day - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Temporarily stepping back from stadium-sized punk-rock ferocity, Green Day took it down a notch or two for this pared-back acoustic ballad, released in December 1997 as the second single and outlier from the band's fifth studio album, Nimrod. Surprisingly, despite its lack of pop-punk potency, "Time Of Your Life (Good Riddance)" became one of the band's staple songs and a live favourite, often used to close out their shows. What's more, "Time Of Your Life (Good Riddance)"—written by Billie Joe Armstrong after splitting up from his ex-girlfriend Amanda who was moving to Ecuador—ballooned into one of the band's biggest-selling and best-loved singles, striking the quintuple platinum mark in the US and double platinum in Australia and the UK. Meanwhile, Nimrod saw Green Day branch out into folk and other punk-adjacent styles like ska, landing the number 10 spot on the US Billboard 200 chart as well as going to number 11 on the UK Albums Chart.
