At what time would that be? I hardly watch MTV anymore...actually, hardly watch TV...

Probably when I'm at school...oh well.

I'm at work from 8:30 till 4

The german site said they'd play the video at 16:30. But, hell.. I can't even watch it at that time (I have german mtv too) Maybe my father can tape it for me :)

Lol no, I meant at what time is Breakfast Club or M is for Music

(but I just looked it up....forgot that that was possible too :lol:)

No.11 in iTunes chart, that's nearly top ten :woot:

that would be somewhere between 6am and 2:30 pm.. Most likely after MTV Breakfast Club though because I don't think they have new music premieres there.. so 11:30 - 2:30.

But they also bring it as a 'world premiere' so maybe it's at the same time as in other countries?

Really I wouldn't be too afraid of missing it, there's GDA and everything to watch it for the first time and I think GD will get enough airplay for you to see the video on tv at some point, even if it's not friday.

Lawl, my school's out at 2:05 :lol:

So if I'm very lucky and forget about the exams stunt (something from school by the seniors, supposed to be funny) I can see the last 5 minutes from M is for Music :lol:

Yeah, I know, but I'm leaving to France that Saturday, at 6 am, without any internet acces for at least a week...:/

So it has to be aired somewhere before I leave, otherwise I'll be so pissed (: I'm going to do an all-nighter that night anyway, have to sit in the car the whole next day x)

(and I don't think I have a chance of going to an internet cafe, I'd be suprised if my parents let me...or even if there was one nearby.)

i wasn't sure abput this song at first, but the more i hear it, the more i like it, the harmonies mix well with the guitar, but i bet it will sound so much better live.

i can just imagine green day pumping this one out loud and furious in a stadium somewhere!

^ same.. I've actually been looking for live footage of KYE cuz I wanna hear how BJ does the scream :D

I just found out Know Your Enemy is the Kink XL on Kink fm (dutch radio station) which means it's the highest newcomer in their charts this week :) It also means that it'll get extra attention and airplay this week! So that's a good excuse to tune into them in stead of another station for you dutchies! (it's also a way better station as any other dutch one ;))

Cool :)

It's also the Megahit on 3fm, which means it gets played in (practically) every show (so several times a day :happy:)

I still don't understand the sense of this "Your photo here"-thing ..

at first I thought that's going to be a special edition or something like that, where you can put your photo on the cover or whatever .. but it seems like this "your photo here"-thing is really on the cover ... :/ I don't get that

Know Your Enemy is basically a song telling people to take a look at themselves. Their inaction is the enemy. So the protester is holding the sign, basically putting them blame on us as individuals.

From "Restless Heart Syndrome"

"I am my own worst enemy

So what ails you is what impales you

You are your own worst enemy

You're a victim of the system

You are your own worst enemy"

Thats the way I interpreted it.

that's a really good interpretation. I was also thinking about it like that. about the song and so on

I just didn't interpreted this "your photo here"-thing like that...

and even if it has a meaning, in my opinion the cover would look even better without it. but viewing it with your interpretation .. yeah it makes sense

I think that's a good interpretation. I think some people have gotten too down on the song for it's repetitiveness and not looked beyond it at the meaning. It's a powerful meaning, and that's why a lot of the words are repeated. I love the song frankly. With Green Day especially you have to look at the lyrics first and, perhaps. the music second. Lyrically it says "Get the fuck off that couch, look at yourself, and do something for once."
