Although I like FOAM, I admit that it didn’t really sound like them. Maybe it really was their way of saying “fuck you” to Warner. 

I do believe that may well be true.

Wow this song is getting hardly any views. Hardly any promotion too. Shame.

Have anyone’s local alt rock stations played it yet?

Looked at my local station- Green Day has been played 17 times in the past two days, 0 for Holy Toledo.

Would love to hear this live. Pollyanna sounded so much better live on tour than it did in the recorded version (which makes my point about the need for less production). Hoping they do a TV performance or play this maybe at one of their festival dates next year. Of course, if it was created only for the movie, maybe they are just going to leave it there and not do any other promotion.

I really like Holy Toledo a lot. I hope it gets some traction. I understand Pollyanna even though it was just a single was likely on every set list for Hella Mega because of the pandemic environment and the message of the song.

I hope Holy Toledo gets a video and some extra promotion. I love it and would love to see a video for it.

Yes, we need a video. Sincerely hoping Green Day will actually appear in the video this time.

It’s funny how Scott Nagelberg said that they are the greatest band in the world on his Instagram but he sure doesn’t treat them that way as far as promotion goes.

I don't find that funny at all... I find it hypocritical and "actions sometimes speak louder than words".

 

Not trying to be mean here but definitely coming off as being mean....  Green Day needs to up their Pollyanna game and move forward.... not back to the Dark Ages of Green Day.

Exactly! It's a good rock song. As you noted above, you definitely hear the sounds of their past albums in it, especially the Trilogy. That's the cool thing about Green Day. They have lots of different influences on their music and try new things, but when you hear a Green Day song, you always know it is them. They are kind of a genre unto themselves LOL. 

Yes, I do not personally know Billie and have never met him. I am unsure what this has to do with my initial post though. 🤣

The song says Sex with Strangers.  So many quotes within quotes, maybe I'm replying to the wrong thing.

The “I find it funny” was sarcasm

That is kind of the point of the movie. “Sex with strangers.”

What do you mean? They had music videos for Father of All, Meet Me on the Roof, and Pollyanna and they were in them.

Wouldn’t say no to a TV performance 

I would LOVE to see them perform on TV again. That would give them exposure for the new song and give us an opportunity to see some new pro-shot footage. It's a win-win.

Plus the opening piano chord sounds like Last Night on Earth and The Forgotten

That is does sir.

I meant post FOAM. They were in Pollyanna? I mean, yeah, if you count the video they made from the tour footage. I meant like an actual official video that they film and whatnot.

Yeah, I think you’re thinking of the lyric video. Here’s the music video.

Yeah, that's what I was talking about. I like this video; I guess I am just waiting for them to do a more traditional music video again. Of course, it has been difficult to stage and film something during the pandemic.

OK, I think I get it now LOL. But unfortunately, no matter my stranger status to Billie or how horny the song makes me, I doubt I will ever get to have sex with Billie. 🤣 That's fine though, since I wouldn't really want that to happen for real anyway; it's just fun to think about. :)
