I hope he releases the full track Happiness soon

Do you think it might be a cover of Ken Dodd?

What I said originally was almost immediately into recording and movie worked on.

That was said before the SA tour was over. What do you people want? Lol!

His last words were “I’ll never work again”. :(

What a lovely tribute if Billie posted a pic of himself holding a tickling stick, with the caption "What a wonderful day for losers"

This sort of screams Record Store Day release, right?

Well, given present circumstances, if they release the album tonight, I wouldn’t be surprised

I've spent a good portion of my life in the U.K. but believe it or not, I THINK most Americans don't even know who he is. Sort of unreal.

I've got a rare pic of him posing with Billie, he taught him everything he knows.

Yup on all points. It seems to me they want to chart and if you're gonna chart, release on Friday. Not saying they will; but they wanna I would think,  chart that is.

Fantastic shot of him. I was not expecting to be hit by his death if you would of asked me but I even shed a tear when I read the news. Just a happy iconic figure. The world lost a man that creates smiles when the world needs them. Sad.

BUT, he performed for the majority of his 90 years. All the way til the end. His last words were literally a joke.

Of course they’re on Fridays. It was just an expression :)

Thought I'd chime in and say I'm really digging LIFL.

I'm liking the whole vibe of this new record. The artwork, sound, all of it.

Posted

I kinda want him/them to drop the album without any release date announced!

Posted

Friday, the 13th seems like a good day to release a album called "Love is for losers". :toocool:

Hahaha I see what you're saying. Yeah, I'll definitely spin it a few times, but my first impression was just not bad.

probability Kerrang is gonna talk about The Longshot in the next issue ( Wednesday 11 )DaWmL4IXcAEpzPt.jpg:large

Just read this in the newsagent so you don’t have to.....just a half page round up of Billie’s/Green Day’s various side-projects. Then some vague speculation about The Longshot......no news.....but at least they were able to mention Green Day on the cover again- gotta boost those sales.

How do you call it when it's clickbait journalism but in print? :lol:

Do you guys think another track will be released, and if so, which one? I have my hopes up for a release of the full album on Friday, but if they wait until record store day I hope we'll get Happiness before then because I'm one impatient SOB. So freaking excited for this album! LIFL didn't do that much for me but Happiness is right up my alley and the overall sound from all of the previews is :wub::wub::wub:

Why do you think they want to chart? I honestly think that's the furthest thing from their (or his) mind.  My take is this is just a fun project he's putting out for the fans (and, Record Store Day if my spidey senses are accurate :)).
