Beauboy93 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 So I went and checked out the Wikipedia page for 21 Guns and found something kind of interesting. It says a 21 Guns physical Cd will be coming out on July 14, with 2 other songs, Favorite Son and She (Live from Tokyo). My question is, is favorite son a brand new song or a cover of the old one?Heres the linkhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/21_Guns_(song) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharmellow Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'm not complaining or anything, but I wonder why they chose Favorite Son out of all songs. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insomniac186 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I'm not complaining or anything, but I wonder why they chose Favorite Son out of all songs. :/Probably because "Rock Against Bush" is out of print and the band wanted to make the song readily available again. That's my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katarina. Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Favorite Son isn't an AI B-side, lol.But, I don't get it. Why in earth would they choose Favorite son? Like the song though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmaILGD! Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I like Favourite Son, but it's kind of irritating that we can't have Drama Queen or the other one that Butch Vig mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94th nimrod. Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Why do they have to put Favorite Son on it?!? I want a new song!!! It's so unfair! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ila Reto Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 meh, i personally think putting old tracks on a new single was a mistake on Warner's part. they're always so concerned about making money, losing money, but then do they really think that as many people would run out to buy a single with old tracks on it as people would if there were new songs? i swear, their logic is constantly diminishing.

Kryssi. Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Ga. Why put Favourite Son on there? I mean, it's a good song, but I thought they would've recorded a new set of songs to use as B-Sides for singles released off of this record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlon_GD Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I don't think putting FS on the 21Guns single is a great idea. Favorite Son is a Bush song, and 21guns has nothing to do with it. It's not even written in the same atmosphere.Not a good decision, Warner. I'm still looking for the single, nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like how the Know Your Enemy single had NO b-sides on the UK release . No wonder it didn't do very well in the charts.Although, not everyone has access to the internet to get hold of rarer songs like Favourite Son so I'm sure there will be fans who will appreciate it. I know I would have a few years ago! But still that won't be many people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
