The Daughter of Rage and Love Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 The strange thing is though that they play much more often Peacemaker in the radio than 21 guns..What?! Lucky...
tvrman Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 i am amazed at how sucessful 21 Guns is, considering the butchered single version is pants ! Someone shoot whoever made the decision to cut out the best part of the song.tvrmanP.S Just heard Blink are putting together a European tour for 2010, any chance of GD, FHT and Blink all at the same festival next year ? (Excuse my dreaming).
HoneyDo666 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 #2 Alternative song on iTunes! Up from 4 or 5.#2 Alternative music video!It's doing well on some Hit stations, like XM's 20 on 20, it hit #1. It must be playing on some hit stations, because that's what the Hot 100 is looking at.And it's huge on MTV and VH1!
HoneyDo666 Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 21 Guns was #3 on MuchMore Music's Top 10, up from #4 last week! And KYE was #2!It was so cool, I got to see 2 Green Day videos on TV back to back!I think Canada loves Green Day!Here's the link if you wanna vote:http://www.muchmore.ca/mmtop10
Penguin Puffball Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I've only heard it on the radio twice... :/ The radio station I listen to seems to like to play their older songs more.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Up 1% to a 97% positive rating on MTV.com (the video)!It's the best reviewed video and it's on the homepage! People really seem to like it!
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 #89 on Dutch single chart (up from #94)not in the top 100 top hits on iTunes#12 and #36 in Alternative top hits on iTunes (#12 is the one from the album, #36 the single)
4whatsername8 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I really don't know. I don't think it's gotten too many airplays on my hometown alt-rock radio station, however, everybody's been giving the song positive reviews: my local paper gave the single a thumbs up, quite a few magazines gave it five stars, MTV seems to approve of it, all of my friends - even the ones who hate Green Day like this song - really like it. So, I guess that would make it successful. But really, the whole album hasn't made nearly as much of an impact as American Idiot had made in 2004.
Mar Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Ok, every time I turn on MTV Hits now, the video is on! Like right now!

MusicalDeviant Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 My mother doesn't like it. So I say its succeeded immensely.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 My mother doesn't like it. So I say its succeeded immensely.Wow, really? My parents love it, it's their favorite Green Day song!

Guest Shangri-La Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the song is so fucking awesome!!!!!!!!and as a single it will ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!your enthusiasm is appreciated my dear but please tone it down with the exclamations. i just read like 6 of your posts in the last 2 minutes and they're all just a tad on the obnoxious noob side.Green Day have the #9 top-selling tour of the week, making $1,336,879 in 3 gigs!jayyysus christ!i've never understood this thread. everyone knows who green day is, they get played on mtv, how is that not huge??
rocklover92 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I neither have seen the video nor heard the song in the radio. That's fuckin' sucks. I think this song is not so popular because TVs always air videos like Lady Gaga, Pussycat Dolls etc.
HoneyDo666 Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!the song is so fucking awesome!!!!!!!!and as a single it will ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!Oi Vey. Ease up on the cocaine my love.And yeah, it's definitely caught on as a single!
Devan Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Are you in the Detroit area? Because oh my God, I hear it on 89X all the time! But I'm not complaining! Ha this is soo late. Ya, I listen to 89x and the 101.5 out of Flintfor the most part. I dunno about recently cause Ihaven't listened in a couple weeks, but yeah.
JohnnyNapalm Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Oi Vey. Ease up on the cocaine my love.And yeah, it's definitely caught on as a single!haha excellent. i think 21 guns is one of the not so good songs on the album, its a song i listen to when im trying to get to sleep hah.its been hugely successful as a single but i think there are other songs on the album which could have done a lot better...
Mar Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 My mother doesn't like it. So I say its succeeded immensely.Wow, really? My parents love it, it's their favorite Green Day song!My mom really likes it too (then again she loves AI and most of 21CB)!Ha this is soo late. Ya, I listen to 89x and the 101.5 out of Flintfor the most part. I dunno about recently cause Ihaven't listened in a couple weeks, but yeah. Gotcha! I've still been hearing it on 89X (I don't know about that 101.5 since in Toledo it's an AC station and they think they're so edgy for playing ONE Green Day song, and I'm sure you can guess what that is! )I hope that they play on Jimmy Kimmel in 2 weeks as rumored, since that may help too.
Ellie_punx Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 your enthusiasm is appreciated my dear but please tone it down with the exclamations. i just read like 6 of your posts in the last 2 minutes and they're all just a tad on the obnoxious noob side.hahaha ok ok i'll try not to put many exclamations!!!Oi Vey. Ease up on the cocaine my love.And yeah, it's definitely caught on as a single!hahaha i'm not getting drugs!!!haha how can a person show it's enthousiasm???putting exclamations!!!!!hahaha
HoneyDo666 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 holy shit. I know seriously. I've never before said Oi Vey on this forum.My mom really likes it too (then again she loves AI and most of 21CB)!Gotcha! I've still been hearing it on 89X (I don't know about that 101.5 since in Toledo it's an AC station and they think they're so edgy for playing ONE Green Day song, and I'm sure you can guess what that is! )I hope that they play on Jimmy Kimmel in 2 weeks as rumored, since that may help too.Take Back? Just kidding!
HoneyDo666 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 #9 video on the much more music countdown in Canada, KYE is #1!Up to #3 on vh1's Top 20 Countdown so keep voting for that, even though VMA voting is obviously more important.
7 P 5 (Kyra) Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 #9 video on the much more music countdown in Canada, KYE is #1!Up to #3 on vh1's Top 20 Countdown so keep voting for that, even though VMA voting is obviously more important.Dude, that's kick ass. I remember watching vh1's Top 20 Countdown and the host on there saying that they'd made record for being American Idiot being #1 for three weeks on there or something, and then my best friend and I started cheering. We were so happy. x) Actually, shit, it may have been BOBD that was #1 for so long, which is really no surprise since it was constantly there, but it's still an accomplishment of epic proportions. Or whatever.
Mar Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Take Back? Just kidding! I would laugh so hard if they did!
