Guest Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 kind of off topic, but my parents have friends over right now and one of them has a son who did the sound for the 21 guns video. pretty sweet
Alex. Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 i've seen the video on tv a couple of times, same with the song on the radio, nothing compared to what i expected though in terms of airplay it'd get.i think the tour is really helping it out though, now (or soon) would be a great time to release EJN. nothing like a mainstream song that will piss off a lot of people to get attention.

I love controversial Green Day, they are my heroes because they put their necks on the line!
Alex. Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Like American Idiot! I love controversial Green Day, they are my heroes because they put their necks on the line!EJN should have been the first single, Know Your Enemy would have done much better as a 3rd or 4th single.
JohnnyNapalm Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 Like American Idiot! I love controversial Green Day, they are my heroes because they put their necks on the line!HAHA! definitely! man that song stayed in the new zealand charts for over a year, no shit. i was extremely proud!
rage-love-life Posted August 16, 2009 Posted August 16, 2009 It's been kinda good, I hear it on 101.9 sometimes.
GreenDay808 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 very!!!everywhere i go, its on the radio.my 5 year old cousin sings it all the time, its in transformers, got a spot on top 20!its a hit. its everywhere you go, say 21 Guns and everyone will start singing it! haha.and yes i love the green day who says "fuck you" to everyone. so EJN is a good song and i'm excited for when its gonna be a single
mufc4 Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 yay it jumped from 19 to 13 on itunes.I think Vma's really helped them.
minorityxdisturbed Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 It's not one of my favourite songs but I like it of course, but the single has made that all the people started hearing that song and made it so redundant, everywhere you go everyone's has it becouse they think that's cool and nobody understand what the song means and only hear Green Day becouse of that song and becouse they think that they are strange and strange things rocks. Some people need to know what music is about.
valentinesandcigs Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 ive been hearing it a little to much on the radio so i guess its successful
Generation Zero Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 21 guns gets a lot of airplay over here and the video is on tv quite a lothowever they lost 10 places in the Belgian Top 50 and now are on position 48, but then again the belgian charts really suck 80% of it is crap
-Billiejoezee- Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 My mom sings this in the shower.and she screams it in the streets. no mother,no.
Jimmy the Kid Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 meh, it's not sad at all. Oh they're not AS famous. They're still pretty goddamn bigIf anything, it'll inspire them more or it will make them do another angry punk album, and I'm all up for thatDidn't the write 3 albuns worth of material? They said in 2007 or something like that.1 album of classic things (FBHT?), 1 epic (21 CB) and 1 andgry punkass mothaf**** (next album maybe?)

alaniluau Posted September 19, 2009 Posted September 19, 2009 While I was on vacation I heard a tiny clip of 21 Guns in a restaurant, but other than that I've never heard it anywhere. :/ On the other hand, my friend in Sacramento says that she hears it ALL the time and can't get away from it.
g l o r i a Posted September 20, 2009 Posted September 20, 2009 I hear it a lot on this one radio station, but I've never heard it on a mainstream radio, the ones that play like Kanye and Beyonce and stuff over and over again, during AI era I always heard BOBD, Holiday and American Idiot, but 21 guns never.

Michael128 Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 21 guns is 22 on the Hot 100new peak right?
PhePheBill Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 21 guns is amazing and i think even people that r not green day fans can relate to it and love it. (i personally think its halarious that billie actually has trouble siging that high.....its wayy diffrent live then on the cd.)
-Billiejoezee- Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 This song is doing good at the bad ass 8 at ocho in my radio.
Sanity Loan Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 My local rock radio station stopped playing it like 2 weeks after it was released due to the fact that the programming manager thought that it was a weak follow up to Know Your Enemy and that they weren't getting much response to the song. Plus it was being played a lot on Top 40 radio
HoneyDo666 Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 ^Yay for it being played on the popular radio!It's currently #26 on the Hot 100, it's apparently had a huge increase in sales (that's what the asterisk means) so double yay!It's always on my TV and is #1 on VH1's Top 20 Countdown.
