"Wake Me Up When September Ends" delves into the meaning and impact of Green Day's emotional hit song, released in 2005. The track, written by frontman Billie Joe Armstrong, is deeply personal, reflecting on the loss of his father when Billie Joe was just ten years old. Victor Varnado, KSN and Rachel Teichman, LMSW discuss the song's themes of grief, memory, and moving forward, as well as its resonance with listeners around the world, particularly in the context of its release following the events of 9/11.
