Being the fourth song on the album, “¡Viva La Gloria!” is where the album’s story between the two protagonists Christian and Gloria truly kicks in. Although “21st Century Breakdown” was technically Christian’s back story, the song also parallels Billie Joe Armstrong’s growth from childhood. This song introduces Gloria as a rebellious figure, similar to Whatsername’s characteristic in Green Day’s previous album, American Idiot.
