First, it would be the fact that Green Day pushed through the rules of punk rock by signing into major record company, this paved way for many other punk bands to be able to sign to major record labels and reach a wider audience.

Another contribution is American Idiot the Musical, most rock bands would never have dreamed of being able to turn an album into a musical and actually become succesful in doing so.

No it was written by Billie Joe ArmstrongIt was written by BOTH David Bowie and Billie Joe Armstrong. Get your facts straight.No, the lyrics were written by Billie Joe.The reason Davie Bowie is credited in some places is because people have been saying that Green Day lifted some of the melody and harmonies from a Bowie hit.
