"Minority" by Green Day is a perfect example of transcendentalism. It exemplifies the desire to be unique and defy authority that transcendentalism is so popular for. The title and main line of this song, "I want to be the minority" is a bold statement that encourages standing up for who you are, even if you are standing alone and the line "Marching out of time to my own beat now" endorses the individuality that is so valued in the transcendentalist society.
