Sixtrix Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I watched it, couldn't bare watching the video. So I listened. Then got teary eyes. This song quite hits me personally. Even though it might be a bit cheesy, it's damn beautifully written and catchy like a cute kitten that I just can't ignore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Forgotten Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I can already see it now! Billie in a hoody playing this song on his piano accompanied by Rocky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 I think I figured out why I don't understand the main line of the song I feel like it should be "Where in the world ARE the forgotten?" not IS the forgotten. Because if it was "are" I would picture a world of lost souls, but when it's "is" I'm like ... huh. Especially followed by "they're lost inside your memory"... so I guess it's not referring to forgotten people but forgotten thoughts or feelings...

JIGD13 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Well I told that I was going to upload the video, YEAH! I know there are a lot of videos of it but if you can share mine it would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heather. Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 but it can be about ONE person, then it is "is. xD Right, but the second line says "they" so it's not Therefore there's some verbage agreement issues. I swear I'm not a grammar nazi, I just think it's little things like this that do add up in a song's lyrics where in the end you ask "What's this about?" BOBD succeeded because it made sense at every turn, same for Good Riddance. This has all the musical qualities to match those songs, but is not quite accessible enough lyrically, and that's the only reason I'm nitpicking. Again I love it, think it's a masterpiece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyB99 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Hey, I don't like The Beatles either, easily one of the most overrated bands every. Wut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freezing Melons Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 haha yea, similar to Beatles in like the guitar "solo" part, very Let it Be, almost, dare I say, Oasis feel, just less whiny. Yea, couldn't bare the video either, but i really want to hear the album before this track, just to make it sound more rewarding, you know?

newsflash777 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Green Day .... come on guys. I fucking love the shit out of you but I just CANNOT do this right now.

This is really pissing me off man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Green Day .... come on guys. I fucking love the shit out of you but I just CANNOT do this right now.

AlissaGoesRAWR Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Great song! I'm not sure if it's catchy enough to be as huge of a hit as some of their others, but it's definitely a fitting end to the trilogy and I can't wait to hear it in context. However, I think I ruined it by watching the video as I listened to it for the first time. That was arguably the worst "professional" video I've ever seen. And we all thought "Oh Love" was bad. I actually think Billie is singing, "Where in the world's our forgotten?" Anyone else hear that? I think you're right. That would make more sense and fix the syntax issues driving Heather crazy (and me as well!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DecanoLP Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 The song isn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I'm still not really digging it :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarPunk94 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 so i didnt listen to it but i gonna watch the video (without audio) later this day is the song really that good? (im not a fan of GD-ballads, i like more the kick-ass songs), but i want to know if the song is a good choice to be the leading song for sth popular like twilight and if the songs is a good choice to be the final song of 37 epic songs in the trilogy?
