True, and it sold the fewest number of units out of the entire trilogy. 

To be fair, that could be for multiple reasons outside of the release date, but like you said, it was a last minute switch.

But now, I have my eye on February/March for a single, and April/May for 1972, I think we can all agree that seems the most realistic now. And they have the Innings Festival in February.

I do not mind if wait goes on,

Cause now it seems foam's too far gone,

I must admit that I enjoy this thread,

1972 take me away.

I sit in the state of a daydream

With all of your words flying over my head

And all of my time gets wasted in this thread

But it sold the third highest out of the tetralogy

Deep down, we're all That Dude 

Y'all also forgot the remix of the hit FOAM song
Fire, Fire, Fire!

No being ready, no aiming.  Just blasting everything in sight.

You know, back in the old days it was frowned upon to embrace your inner Dude.  I'm sure there's a number of anti-dudist's that have me blocked and I've also been warned and held down by The Man a time or two in my day.  My mantra is now "retain the crazy but totally possible theory while staying 100% on topic at all times."

Back on topic though, I wish I could Fire Fire Fire.

The lead single will be Oh 1972!

This is what happens when they start teasing the album a year before even officially announcing it...

I just hope that Billie's lyrics embrace his inner That Dude as well

The band will say the album is "uno, if uno were made with as much care and passion as American Idiot or Dookie. 

And Oh 1972 will have the line "this amazing night" because everyone knows that is what he should have said in Oh Love.

Oh 1972 will be if Oh Love and Oh Yeah fucked and had a baby

1972 will place at #1972 on the billboard chart first week of its release and will be the lowest selling punk album of all time.

it will rank #1 on most punk albums of all time

It would be kind of cool if Green Day came out and said "you know what?  Screw everyone, we're making this next one out of pure 100% artistic passion.  We do the shows to entertain the world, but this one is for the rebels.  The broken and the damned.   Okay, that last part was MCR, but that's okay.    The album WILL have trap beats, swedish songwriters and totally CUT rock n roll.    But not how you'd think.     It's so avand guard and genius and it's just the greatest music that the 5 people who listen to it will ever hear in their stupid lives.   

Do we think it'll do well in the future, like a Pinkerton situation - or probably not because you said "of all time".  ?

What are some topics Green Day have ignored that should be in the lyrics on 1972?

Spaghetti is my first one.

Coke A Cola is the only food product Billie has written about, and I think this is an I justice.   Mike Dirnt mentioned coffee, but Billie needs a food fetish.

Canoles.  Honey Chicken.

 

What else?  Laundry has been mentioned. Weather....

I wonder if Billie would write something about Slim Shady mom's spaghetti.

Yes. If Green Day would have waited and announced 1972 a few months before the release, I would only be posting completely normal discussions of the album.........

Green Day could cover Lose Yourself.  That would be gangsta.

Eminem should be featured in an original track or a sequel to Nightlife.      I can hear him bashing Lady Cobra now.....they battle rap about who would love Billie Joe better.
