At least until the guys drop hints for the next album. What do you guys think, 2023 or 2024?

I think it'll be before 2024. Don't think it would be that long. Wouldn't be surprised if we got one in 2022

Although, I wouldn't mind if it were that long if it meant we get a top tier Green Day album.

And here , they’re using that same logo again. I hope this means we’re not too far off from a new album

Dropped off the Alternative Airplay chart, but moved up to new peaks in the other two.  Went from 36 to 31 in Rock and Alternative Airplay, and from 33 to 30 in Mainstream Rock Airplay.  On my local alternative rock station, it looks like it's being played an average of three times a day.

[Montclare]

Stayed at #30 in Mainstream Airplay; went up one spot to #30 in Rock and Alternative Airplay, and re-entered the Alternative Airplay chart at #40.  Hoping since they're playing it on tour that it will help with the stats.

[Montclare]

New peaks on all three charts- went from #30 to #27 in Mainstream Rock Airplay, from #30 to #29 in Rock and Alternative Airplay, and from #40 to #37 in Alternative Airplay.

Slowly but surely!

[HoneyEmerald]

I am addicted to this song.

Cool! I wonder if playing it on the tour is helping. Do people look it up and stream it after?

Doesn't look like those three charts take streaming into account, just radio airplay.

[Montclare]

Went down on Mainstream Rock Airplay (27 to 31), but at new peaks on Alternative Airplay (37 to 35) and Rock and Alternative Airplay (29 to 28).

You and your eagle eyes for quick scroll reading! Thanks!

Green Day is releasing a music video for Pollyanna

From the looks of it, it seems like it's gonna be a video of a live performance of the song (or just Hella Mega footage in general), though it will most likely use the audio of the studio version

dont let me down

[Insomniac1984]

I'm glad for this song, I hope this tune will be part of the next GD album.

[StillBreathing]

Pollyanna has definitely got the ‘feel good’ song of the year vibes

Ironically what FOA was completely against 😂😂

I like Pollyanna a lot but I hope it’s not taking up real estate on the next record and the next record is not much like this song (theme wise not necessarily sound wise) or HCTS.

13 hours from now… can’t wait! I’m sure this will be a great video. Very much looking forward to seeing this if there has to be a tour at all. Really hoping for some fun crowd, stage and tour footage. I cannot wait until this is all over and everyone is safe and healthy and not dying from heat exhaustion and whatever else the fuck and nobody ever has to hear this song at a live show again. Pollyanna is like the theme of the shit show that is 2021 and Green Day headlining this tour.

I had to read it twice. You love the song, you hope to never hear it live again — wha?? 😂 I get it though, it’s kind of a bittersweet song that will forever be associated with the pandemic now unfortunately

Yeah for what was a surviving addiction/rehab song that one has taken on new meaning too.  Also with WMUWSE and 9/11, Billie just has a knack of writing these extremely personal songs that end up resonating with people for universal and entirely different reasons

Exactly. And it’s an okay song but it’s forever going to feel like this tour and this pandemic and a time and a place song. A time and a place I just want to survive.

I basically said I’m looking forward to the footage. The song is ok. And there’s good in some stuff even if it’s not great.

Still Breathing reminds me of Rev Rad and the band making their own new album on their terms after a long break (long for Green Day they work so much all the time good lord especially since Rev Rad side and solo projects included). Still Breathing felt very personal but relatable on different levels. Works for the pandemic too…
