Soroush Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I don't think they will, I liked 21 Guns and the actors in it but I don't think 21st CB is a song directly about C or G, its not as specific as other songs with C&G in it, about a specific feeling or something or about drugs or whatever. I remember Billie saying about the album that its like a picture of everything thats happened in the last 10 years (something alone those lines). So maybe the video could be like Linkin Parks video for 'What I've Done' (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsmoXP4X_qY)...maybe.I don't think so, green day is not one of those bands that makes such videos, I'm sure it is something related to the album story, or at least themeselves r gonna act in it
Hermione Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 They did the same thing with 21stCB, as far as I recall. The only place I can think of where EJN was done was Letterman and, as you mentioned, Rock Band. Oh, I agree with you, btw, I think the label chickened out...Stop being right . Yeah they did play them both a lot.And good I feel less like a conspiracy theorist now haha. Pretty disappointing though.I wonder how Marc is going to interpret this song into a video?Hmm....In a not-very-interesting way if the other two videos he did are anything to go by . One thing I can say about all this though: at least Sam Bayer isn't involved!
.Militza. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I remember getting so exited over 21 guns, and it turned out bad.Now, I'm scared to even think of what the hell they're gonna do.
Drew Holiday Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 DAMN!Looking forward to this, 21CB is one of my favorites on the album! I get goosebumps everytime I listen to it!
Sarahnade. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I just listened to 21CB, and I got even more excited. I just need a shot of optimism, because I don't have much faith in Marc Webb.

Hermione Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Most of Sam Bayer's videos were successful so he must've done something right... I don't like him either To be fair I do like more of his videos than I dislike. But JOS and WMUWSE are just unforgivable.
MitchBob Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 To be fair I do like more of his videos than I dislike. But JOS and WMUWSE are just unforgivable.Man, JOS is one of my favourite videos! Mind you, it'd be heaps better if it had Green Day in it as well. If EJN isn't a single, this album won't be nearly as successful as it should be. EJN would save the album. I think EJN and either Static Age or American Eulogy should be the last two singles after this.
Sarahnade. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I don't like JOS much, but I like WMUWSE. The dialogue needed to be discarded, though, but some of the shots were interesting, and I liked Green Day's performance. It isn't one of their best videos, but I don't think it was terrible, imo. And I think it struck a chord in people who knew someone in Iraq; I think that was Green Day's goal with it.Man, JOS is one of my favourite videos! Mind you, it'd be heaps better if it had Green Day in it as well. If EJN isn't a single, this album won't be nearly as successful as it should be. EJN would save the album.

Chelsea Hotel Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I think Green Day should vary the directors they work with. Sam Bayer and Marc Webb are all well and good, but why not reach outside the comfort zone? Live a little!I don't know what I'd do if American Eulogy was released as a single--that's my favorite song off 21CB. It's like my little secret IRL.
HoneyDo666 Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I want a video like Holiday! Green Day having fun and being awesome!
MitchBob Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I want a video like Holiday! Green Day having fun and being awesome!THIS! Them going around in a night city scape, like the backdrop for their opening song live. It'd be epic.
XBlade1X Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Yeah, It was a bit of a suprise, I thought it was going to be Viva la Gloria or EJN, but I love this song, but I really hope they dont shorten it, i dont know how they would except for halving the intro or something... I think they need the intro though, because it gives you the exited feeling that you about to hear an epic song... sort of like Boulevard of Broken Dreams.BTW I'm new to this website so hello everyone...
Maddy.

But a good one even though I lost my bet
Mar Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I just find it strange, looking back, that they performed EJN on such a high-profile show like Letterman, yet aren't making it a single (at least not yet). I'm not mad, but I don't know, it's just odd to me.
XBlade1X Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 welcome to GDC Yeah, it was a surprise. But a good one even though I lost my betAw thanks... I cant wait to see how they make a video out of 21CB its going to be epic.
Tiffx Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I hope the video isn't too serious. I just want to see them let loose and have some fun.
Maddy. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Aw thanks... I cant wait to see how they make a video out of 21CB its going to be epic.Yeah, you're welcome I had a dream about the vid. But I forgot lol
mallorymaloney Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Am I the only one who thinks Sam Bayer was cool as hell, and that all of his videos have rocked thus far?
Maddy. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Am I the only one who thinks Sam Bayer was cool as hell, and that all of his videos have rocked thus far? you are not alone, my friend I thought JOS was good
gdpunk2 Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 A bit of a shock. I mean it dident sound like a single when i first heard it. i was expecting EJN. Ahh well. Still an awesome song! Cant wait to see the video, will be interesting actually.
Katarina. Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 AWESOME! It's so unexpected though.. I really thought EJN was going to be the next single.Can't wait anyway! But.. I think EJN and American Eulogy would make great next singles after this one.And Peacemaker.. though I kinda know it won't be a single ;p Just image the vid for it..
emmaILGD! Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Maybe they'll end up opening the VMAs with this. There's a lot of potential for this video, and I can't say I have a lot of faith in Marc Webb.
