matteo263 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I can't believe tthis!! IMO LOTAG is a horrible choice for a single...it's so generic. I hope I'm proven wrong.Any other song from the album (exept SOTC) would have been better. I'll just hope for the best though, the guys will not let us down!!!bdw i just got BIAB today and i think it is great so IMO Sam Bayer did amazing work in everything exept WMUWSE and the hooooorrrrriiiiibllllee JOS!

Isabel Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 But that's just how Billie Joe's brain works. No one gets it.But I think Sam decided on that. Because there was never really any mention of them being linked before you saw the making of the two videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vrock09 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Isn't the song essentially about Adrienne?yeah i saw in an interview that the song was written about Adie but then he just kept adding things to it and then it corrilated with the story.

Seedless_Reject Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Isn't the song essentially about Adrienne?I'm pretty sure it is at least Tre' has said it is, I don't know if Billie Joe has said it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddy. Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Isn't the song essentially about Adrienne?I think so, I think he mentioned something sometime, idk.But I don't think having her in the video would be good. Idk, but just no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angela. Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 angelaaaa!!! omg long time no speak!but i must agree RHS would have been epic Hey, Mariann! Yeah, it's been a while. Good to talk to you again!Yeah, I think RHS would have been amazing. It just a great song that I think would have spread like wildfire if it were to be released as a single.

Vrock09 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I just hope the release of the video is as fucking confusing as the 21st Century Breakdown video lol....................we all know how that went Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nele Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Isn't the song essentially about Adrienne?I think he wanted to write about her but then kept adding things to the song so it wasn't really about 80 anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shangri-La Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 i don't care what the next single is but i'm prettttty excited about what marc webb's interpretation of the song will be.also, yaayyyyyyy more b-sides! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarahnade. Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I was expecting either Static Age, American Eulogy, or Before the Lobotomy. I really wasn't expecting this. And either one of those would've been so cool. I really really really wanted Restless Heart Syndrome or Peacemaker, personally, hahaha.They don't even play Last of the American Girls live at their shows. It's just a weird choice.I don't want to sound all bitchy, but ugh. I don't like their single choices. Or Marc Webb. You just want them to do peacemaker and feature you in the video whenever they say Sarahnade, omg they have to do that!Duh! And hi Maddy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isabel Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 yeah i saw in an interview that the song was written about Adie but then he just kept adding things to it and then it corrilated with the story.Ah, ok. I remember Mike said something about it in the Rolling Stone interview. He said it was about Adrienne, but the way he phrased it seemed like as if it wasn't obvious that it was about her. But like, I could have totally interpreted that incorrectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
