Last of the American Girls music video

[IscoredWaddlesgoals]

They seem to have lost all interest in promoting this album. It's a shame because when it came out so many magazines were raving about it and saying how it was even more ambitious than American Idiot, and the band were saying how excited they were for songs like East Jesus Nowhere to come out and make an impact. But the releases of every video and single have been so half-arsed and low key there's been absolutely no chance for them to make a splash.

I was hoping they were finally doing things properly and releasing a great song with a great video to promote their wonderful album

Exactly. I've only seen it played once on the TV since it came out. I'd be very surprised to hear this on the radio as well. They only seem to want to promote AI related stuff at the minute.

No its not the same person saying it but it is annoying imo Maybe because i'm a guy.

But i don't think its fair that she can't voice her opinion. Its not hating on Billie its just criticizing the video.

I wouldn't call it criticizing if you just say "it's terrible/I don't like it" (especially if you just repeat it). Of course she can voice her opinion, no problem with that at all, but it's getting rather annoying if the same person says the same thing over and over again. In the case of the "Billie's hot" thing, it's all different persons who say that. Can be just as annoying, but there is a difference.

[Eeefaa.]

it is so true and it really could have been big.

maybe the same thing happened to some extent with insomniac/nimrod/warning.

Yeah. well, yeah, I don't have anything to add to that.

Hermione just summed up my thoughts.

[spark in the night]

my likes/dislikes of the video:

Likes:

- Desert Scene

- clips of Green Day playing

- clips of knick knacks and objects in the beginning

Dislikes:

-Gloria, for one- she looks like a bitch

- The dancers. oh my god. it’s hurts to watch. Although I can assume that these two skanks represent the shoulder angel/devil. even though they look the same.

- Gloria singing along to the song. just. no. We don’t want to see your teeth

- a “house” in the middle of the desert. Maybe if she was living in a RV, then I could understand.

I thought I was the only one who dislikes that. I liked Gloria better in 21 Guns but I'm not too found of her in this video.

And her nose, gawd. If there was ever a duck reincarnated in human form, then it was her.

Am I the only one who thinks that the video would have been way better if Billie had played Gloria and Mike and Tré had followed him around in blond wigs? :eyebrow:

[E!!i]

Okay, I like girls but having half naked girls in a Green Day video is taking it a bit too far.

why?

Omg, no, you're not the only one

[Maddy.]

why?

I see enough of them in hiphop videos, Green Day's better than that.

[E!!i]

The official Green Day youtube page posted the Last of the American Girls video but WMG have blocked it from my country

in my country all videos are blocked

[valentinesandcigs]

why?

Because it would be an mtv type video full of sluts.

[E!!i]

thats unfair....

you can watch it on greenday.com

Amp up "King For A Day" live a bit and you've got it. We'd have to put Jason White in that dippy pirate's hat he wears tho, and add a cameo from Jason Freese decked out like Michael Jackson. MAN can he pull that off.

[E!!i]

Maddy, you only need to say you don't like it once. Same about your hate for Armstrong. It's boring after a while. Just sayin'.

hate for Armstrong?

Umm , since usually singles came out before videos, this makes sense

I thought the videos come out before the singles?!

first: hello everyone! i'm new here

but i've been reading your posts for a few months and i wanted to join the conversations earlier but the forum was offline

so good that it got fixed

the video is awesome some ppl say that the blonde girls are annoying-well yes they are. but i think that's why they're in the video or sth (is that a silly thought?)

and i'm happy that Jason is in the video, too :woot: i love him

and it's also cool that Gloria is watching older GD videos on the TV

Jason is on the video?

Gloria is watching older GD videos?

[Maddy.]

hate for Armstrong?

God forbid I ever say something negative about your beloved Billie Joe.

[E!!i]

I love this video. But yeah, I already said that. It's not bad, but also not epic. It fits the song.

Too bad I still haven't seen it on tv though, stupid MTV

I just saw it once, at the premiere

Here in Italy you can watch it almost every hour on MTV...at least, something good

wow I want to live in Italy^^ but I have to say that I watch MTV very seldom

Gah, the more i watch this video the more i dont like it which is a pity because when i first watched it, i thought it was AMAZING and i loved it to bits idk, i think it just lacks the old humor.

Btw, im loving the fish discussion

yeah, i remember with 21stCBD first came out i saw the video all the time... so i used to sit at the tv and flick channels until a GD video came on i think i even saw EJN playing once now though i wouldnt recommend it... you'd be waiting for hours.

I never saw them on TV but I saw 21 Guns and Know Your Enemy.

She's allowed to voice her opinions as many times as she wants. . Ive seen about 10 posts saying how sexy they all look in the video and thats starting to get annoying as well. So i think we should learn to take some constructive criticism

yeah that's annoying me too

- The dancers. oh my god. it’s hurts to watch. Although I can assume that these two skanks represent the shoulder angel/devil. even though they look the same.

thx, now I understand it

There you go again. Hate Armstrong all you want, but it's boring when you have to say it every.chance.you.get.

I'm not picking, but there it is - you've just hit the nail on the head. Maybe you think it's cool that you don't like him, but it's not, no one cares.

[E!!i]

yeah that would have been fantastic! :eyebrow:

I see enough of them in hiphop videos, Green Day's better than that.

ok that's an argument^^

I thougt the person meant real hate.

I didn't say anything bad about him just now. I don't hate him, and I have no idea what your problem is with me.

where did she say something like that???

a bit late^^

Seriously though, I love the dude. He may not be mother's most beautiful but he's a fantastic frontman and he's inspired me just as much as the next man.

Just because I don't express my love for him in every single post doesn't mean I hate him.
