E!!i Posted December 3, 2009 Posted December 3, 2009 I love the reggae sound and the part when it really starts at "Life before the lobotomy".
Bubbles. Posted December 6, 2009 Posted December 6, 2009 Love this song. I get the feeling the 'whiskey shots and cheap cigarettes' bit will be great live, everyone singing it.Loved it live too
E!!i Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I think this could be the next single or The Static Age. What do you think?
Mar Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I think this could be the next single or The Static Age. What do you think?I honestly love this song so much that I DON'T want it to be a single. I like having it a little less well-known. I think you may be correct, but in a way, although it's by far my favorite song on the album, I hope you're wrong.
champagne mami Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 I really love this song.I love the reggae sound and the part when it really starts at "Life before the lobotomy".This. (:
Sanity Loan Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I'm betting this is the next single.And it will be edited so that the intro is gone so the song will start with the lone electric guitar
Martyn Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 I'm betting this is the next single.And it will be edited so that the intro is gone so the song will start with the lone electric guitardid you make that single coverart in your sig? or source?
Sanity Loan Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 did you make that single coverart in your sig? or source?As much as I wanna say that is the official one.... I cannot. Yes, I made it.
ProstheticHeads Posted December 31, 2009 Posted December 31, 2009 the song's good, but be honest, it's repetitive. Of course, I really liked it, but as for most of the 21CB album (unfortunately) I got tired of most of the songs eventually.Btw gdkid, is the Before the lobotomy cover the single in your sig? Because I've checked and no new single as been released. Youre trying to trick some people arent you
E!!i Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 the song's good, but be honest, it's repetitive.

Youre trying to trick some people arent you maybe he thinks that this will be the next single, I think so too, or it also could be The Static Age, but my favorite would be Horseshoes and Handgrenades
farley drexel hatcher Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 I love this song but don't get your hopes up for it as next single. Actually, I can't see there being anymore singles from the album.
E!!i Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 I love this song but don't get your hopes up for it as next single. Actually, I can't see there being anymore singles from the album.why? they released 5 songs from american idiot and till now there were only released 4 songs from 21st century breakdown
ProstheticHeads Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 why? they released 5 songs from american idiot and till now there were only released 4 songs from 21st century breakdownExactly. AND, 21CB has more songs. AND Metallica for one of their albums had 6. At least make the last single radio-only like She. And i was never wanting this song as a single at all. I'd prefer either Peacemaker, Restless Heart Syndrome or Murder City as the last single.
farley drexel hatcher Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 Yeah, but five years ago singles did a whole lot better than they do now, plus even then five singles were a stretch. They only did five because it was so successful. The last two singles for 21CB didn't even get released properly (EJN and 21CB).

ProstheticHeads Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 no, both were released, 21st century breakdown in europe and East Jesus Nowhere in the USA, I have the single 21st century breakdownInteresting...so would there be 6 singles instead? One could only hope
E!!i Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 Interesting...so would there be 6 singles instead? One could only hope this could also be

They only did five because it was so successful. The last two singles for 21CB didn't even get released properly (EJN and 21CB).That's the way I'm thinking...and besides, I don't know if I'd want this to be a single...I'm too protective of this song
umbjisfhinefum Posted January 1, 2010 Posted January 1, 2010 The way I think about that line, it has to have the one before it included. Christian's lesson's what he's been told - "We are normal and self-controlled."In other words, like some parents say, "Now, Johnny, we don't bite the other children on the playground." It's like the authority figures in Christian's life are telling him that "we" (good people) are normal and self-controlled. Obviously, he needs to be told that often, because he's NOT normal and self-controlled. Anyway, that's what it means to me.i agree that you need the line before that to understand it, but i think that "we are normal and self-controlled" is Christian's reaction to authority figures telling him how he should be. Like authority figures attempt to teach him the "lessons", but he fights back saying "i AM normal...i AM self-controlled', i don't need your lessons because to myself I am normal...
Sanity Loan Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 I love this song but don't get your hopes up for it as next single. Actually, I can't see there being anymore singles from the album.I'm kinda torn on what to expect. Like you, I can totally see no more singles being released. But on the other hand, I don't like the idea of the singles ending with 21 Guns... and I don't think Green Day do either (Yes, I know EJN and 21CB are "released" kinda but they aren't doing so well).My guess is Before the Lobotomy (hence my version of the single artwork in my sig) and that the video will be shot after the Asian tour which is at the end of January. It will be the "N.A. tour single".And plus, this song and RHS are the only two songs from 21CB that are on the band's MySpace... take this for what you will.Once again, these are only my opinions
urika sebastian Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 it's cool cuz if you think about it as christian and gloria singing to each other, you can imagine it perfectly
Deathwish. Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I adore this song. Soft and sweet than it's all powerful. It is pure genuis.
petros Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 YEAH that was my feeling when I first heard it but then after some weeks of listening I got a little bored of it...
GreenDayI21 Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Awesome song "WHISKEY SHOTS AND CHEAP CIGARETTES"--> so fuckin great!
BrickOfSelfControl1995 Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 i LOVE when they kick into.. LIFE BEFORE THE LOBOTOMY!!! with the guitar, its so cool
