sydneygirl Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I'm guessing that the Monday release is following US Westcoast time? Damn! Why can't it be Australian Eastcoast time - it comes first. Or better still, New Zealand time - that comes even earlier. Oh well, I'll just have to wait.And to the people who say the song doesn't sound like Green Day etc., just keep your minds open. Wait until you've heard the full song. You never know, you may just like it. I think it is important to look at it in its own right, not as a reflection of what Green Day will put on their album. It has nothing to do with it at all. Green Day are very talented and they're perfectionists. They wouldn't put out crap - never. They have a great deal of admiration and respect for John Lennon, so they would make sure it is brilliant.So anyway, all will be revealed on Monday. And of course, as has been said many times previously here, it is for a very good and worthy cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piratepalmer Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 I think some of you are forgetting also that this is an acoustic song, so they have done well to incorperate a rhythmn section.That's exactly it; I wondered when I heard the Lennon version how the band were going to be involved in this acoustic song. From what I've heard, they've done a great job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haushinkapritchard Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 what's the matter with you guys?! It's completely boring. is it the fact that you guys can't say that green day can do things that sucks, because this do..making a cover of john lennons song, makes me so depressed. Maybe I'm just to imature for this but... geez.. can't stand this anymore, all these shitty covers they've been starting to record, everything from I fought the law to this piece of garbishor maybe we all like it...i think its greatyou dontand i dont calling all these classic songs "garbish" or whatever is going to make you seem to bright...Theyre not shittheyre greatbut whatever it is your opinion...I can't wait for the videoBut i really cant imagine what its gonna be like...i really have no clue wheras with most of their other videos i could kinda guess what it would be like...I like sam bayers work except for wake me up when september ends (but i thought the bit where the band played was great, just not the whole acting bit...) and J.O.S (its alright but i hate the whole "punk" thing going on ) but the rest were amazing especially boulevard of broken dreams...So im really anxious to see the videoand i cant wait to get the songdoes anyone know what time it will be for sale, like at midnight or what...and then theres the time difference... Is it being released as a cd-single as well or is it just available through iTunes?Im not too sure on this but i think it will be release on a cd as a single a few days later....but it mightnt be untill the video is out too...i have to borrow someones credit card to get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
