Greatest Hits: God's Favorite Band is the second greatest hits album by American rock band Green Day, released on November 17, 2017.[4]

Background

God's Favorite Band features 20 of Green Day's previous hits, as well as 2 new songs: a new version of the Revolution Radio (2016) track "Ordinary World", featuring country singer Miranda Lambert, and a previously unreleased song entitled "Back in the USA". The album includes songs from all of Green Day's studio albums, with the exception of 39/Smooth (1990), ¡Dos! (2012), and ¡Tré! (2012). 10 of the tracks previously appeared on Green Day's 2001 greatest hits album International Superhits!. Although he had returned to his previous role as the band's touring guitarist, Jason White participated in the recording for "Back in the USA".

The album's title is a reference to a joke made by Stephen Colbert during the band's March 22, 2017, appearance on The Late Show, in which Colbert quipped that Green Day were "God's favorite band".[5] Colbert's joke was in itself a reference to a comment made by Green Day drummer Tré Cool on the band's 2005 DVD Bullet in a Bible, in which Cool remarked that the rain clouds over the venue had cleared because "God wants to watch his favorite band again."[6]

Allegorical personification of Hope: Hope in a Prison of Despair, 1887, by Evelyn De Morgan Hope (Latin: spes) is one of the three theological virtues in the Christian tradition. Hope is a combination of the desire for something and expectation of receiving it. The Christian virtue is hoping specifically for Divine union and so eternal happiness. While faith is a function of the intellect, hope is an act of the will. As a deeply rooted aspect of human life, it also encompasses other dimensions, …
