greenbear Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I've just found thisViva la Gloria?I think its really good.Howie Klein is obviously totally in love with 21st Century Breakdown because he also wrote this ArticleThe article is entitled WalMart Won't Carry The Best Record Of The Year-- Green Day's 21st Century BreakdownWorth reading and its not just about the Walmart issue. More about record sales and WB in general.Btw please move this if I've put it in the wrong place
**nobodylikesyou** Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 i saw this article yesterday, and didnt realize who it was by. . . nice video too. thanks for sharing!
spark in the night Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 the zooming in and out of the pictures in that video made me nauseous
*withoutadoubt* Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Thanks for posting that - I enjoyed watching! And the article was great to read as well. This Wal-Mart thing really bugs the shit outta me. Maybe they should just attach a bar of soap to each CD so that the buyer can wash the "dirty words" from their mouths after singing along to it. Pfft...do they censor all their DVDs too?
Hermione Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I don't know much about that side of things so the article was interesting. AndIt's a daunting task because the songs are so amazing that even before I start looking for photos, I know there's no chance I can do the music justice.Haha he really does love it . I was pleased to see the choice of song for the video because it's one of my favourites, I would say he DID do it justice. The images he chose really made me think about the song's meaning.
Boston Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 The article is ridiculously biased and poorly written. The video is poorly organized and better pictures should have been chosen. As a result, Warner paid off all its existing debt and extended the date by which it needed to pay it back until 2016.That makes no sense. Back to the topic of discussion: Green Day has never censored any of their albums for Wal*Mart, and they've all been sold there. In fact, 21CB is far cleaner than most of their albums. Just one more reason Target is better.

I like the soap idea.No they don't censor DVD's.Back to the topic of discussion: Green Day has never censored any of their albums for Wal*Mart, and they've all been sold there. In fact, 21CB is far cleaner than most of their albums. Just one more reason Target is better.Actually, all of the Green Day albums they sell at the local Wal-Mart are censored. Either way, Target is definitely better. Wal-mart is just a really crappy store in general.

Wal-mart is just a really crappy store in general.So Green Day has actually made 'clean' versions of their albums before? Or did they just do the fuck nuff thing?
rage-love-life Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 I saw this article yesterday, but I haven't watched the video yet. Maybe cause it doesn't exist anymore. Thanks for posting.
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Mm, the video is removed :/But the article was a really nice read
Sharmellow Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 The video is removed, is there another website where we can watch the video?
LouLou Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 Wow, the article was really good! Thanks for the find!
Guest Hayley Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I can't see the video, it has been removed...But the article is good."21st Century Breakdown is certainly Green Day's best record ever"
greenbear Posted May 28, 2009 Author Posted May 28, 2009 Unfortunately the video has been removed and I never got round to ripping it. I don't know if anyone else has it.
