Guest As Good As It Gets Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I got a feeling that the biggest problem some people are having is Billie adding some falsetto to some of the new songs. Wouldn't surprise me if they still weren't able to fully accept that vocal change in some of the songs and therefor decide to not like the song. It's easy to blame it on the "auto tune" which is complete bullcrap, while it's been clear since their very first album that Billie Joe is a terribly talented singer. Maybe not the best in the world, but he's never afraid to allow himself to improve. It's just a pity that there is always something people allow themselves to be disappointed about. Just let go of the "what should be punk" and "this is not like their older songs" and you might open yourself up for the new Green Day era. Maybe you'll like it or still dislike it, in the end there is no one who can change your musical opinion and taste. And yeah, they made a huge album with American Idiot and had a huge impact on the musical industry with Dookie. But both albums were launched at the right time and moment and fit the current atmosphere perfectly. Green Day are just a mortal band with members who could easily be your neighbor or your best friend. If they had magical power then maybe they would be able to make all our penises or vaginas go wild. I think it is safe to assume that some people have very unrealistic high expectations of this band and probably won't ever understand what "having fun" truly means to the band itself. We aren't forced to like whatever direction they decide to go in, but since we all committed ourselves to become a huge fan because of the huge impact some of their songs made in our life, we should at least look deeper into the new songs than just the first layer it presents. Sorry for the long post. I'm going to take a nap now. Good post man! Summed up in a very articulate way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florence Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Yes. Yes. Yes. I couldn't agree more. If they had magical power then maybe they would be able to make all our penises or vaginas go wild. ... Green Day don't need magical power to do that. :mellow: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelly42fox Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Then why they told us "Digital Single 2 Release Date: August 14, 2012" ?? But now that I think about it, you mught be right. The "single 2" thing is under DOS release... Has anyone actually asked WB about the pre-order DL of the second single? We were told in the pre-order we would get a new DL today (Aug 14th). It's slightly irritating that they told us one thing and haven't yet followed through with it OR sent us a notice that it had changed. EDIT: I have sent an email asking because I'm impatient. heh.

The Pedestrian Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 Is it me or has almost everyone got the lyrics wrong? Isn’t it “We’ll cut two holes in your heart and your mind” not “we’ll cut you once...” ? Also, It sounds a bit silly, but he definitely does not sing old. I think “unholy in the holiest of holes” is seriously what he sings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly because I remember thinking..."well shit BJA, that was clever and fucking awesome." Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity Loan Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I hereby nominate Matt to now and forever be in charge of Green Day's radio edits. Except I'm pretty sure you missed a lot of "fuckin"s toward the end of the song (like around 2:59 forward) I know..... that's why I put CLEARLY in my post that I missed those because I couldn't figure out how to edit them out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
porksoda Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 So is this not going to be released in the US like we thought? I hope they don't shaft this as a single over here (like they did with East Jesus Nowhere) because I can see this doing way better than "Oh Love." Btw, here's a download of the explicit version if anyone needs it: http://ul.to/pzkvmj8c (The site can be kind of weird to navigate. Click free download, close all of the windows that pop up, wait like 30 secs, and then you should be able to click the button to start the download. It'll ask you to sign up for the site, but just ignore that.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
