Check it Out, #2: Memory of September 11

Wake Me Up When September Ends

For my second check it out post, I decided to share the song "Wake Me Up When September Ends" by Green Day. I chose this exact song because today is the eleventh anniversary of 9/11. The music video has in itself different problems between a couple, but the message is, is that it's in September. I feel this is how the families and victims of 9/11 felt in 2001. It also affects me in a way because even though I was only five years old when that happened, I still remember the day my parents spent in shock, calling everybody, and watching the news over and over in disbelief. It's also a good song as well and should be listened to and appreciated.
