dolce Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 i like this video because it is one of those ones where you notice something new everytime you watch it.I know, you really do!This time watching I noticed something that I LOVE - at the very end, when it switches to Billie in full color, you can very quickly see black tears (like from his eyeliner) that go back up towards his eye. It's so beautiful.
parinaz Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I'm on a slow connection here so streaming kinda sucks, is there download links floating around yet by any chance?yup.
tvrman Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 UK members; set your planners/recorders..MTV TWO (Sky 355) 21CB video premieres at 1000am tomorrow (Tuesday). I think this is the first 'over the air' viewing. It is repeated throughout the day - on the hour for 20 hours - unreal !! so lots of chances to see or record. I cannot wait to see this on my big plasma rather than on my PC.tvrman

heartscollide Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 i think i just started crying.That video was worth the late.i love you green day.
Princess Consuela Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 i like this video because it is one of those ones where you notice something new everytime you watch it.Agreed. I've already watched it more times that KYE and 21 guns both And omg, that roof part wakes up my inner teenie
norcalgreendayfan Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I finally was able to check out the video during my break. Lucky for me I found it posted on Youtube so I was able to watch it on my Iphone. Let me just say this video was amazing and bloody brilliant. I absolutely love it. One of their best by far.
RobyRoom Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 ok, just watched this through now ( twice) and here is my review :First off, so not what I was expecting! I liked Webbs work previously ( 21 guns, waiting) but this one.. i must say left me a little disappointed. I understand that amazing graphics, special effects ect are popular, but personally I feel that they take away from the cinematography. Yes, it does relate to the banksy/sixteen esque style of the album artwork. But we get that, I don't think it was really necessairy in this video- Webb made a link to the album cover in 21 guns previoulsy and to me it just seems that his idea pool was running a bit dry where christian and gloria were concerned.Then again, why was Gloria pregnant?? Im guessing this is to do with the class of thirteen thing and growing up in the world of hypocracy blah blah. But this to me i found a little .. i dont know, not right? Then again, mabye this is how we are supposed to feel; they are both very young characters and the topic of having children young can still be seen to be a slightly contriversial subject. I just feel if Webb went to all the effort of re-enforcing the album artwork he should have wanted to have stayed as true to the lyrics of the album - idont think there is any mention of childbirth.I don't think that Gloria pregnancy is inappropriate. I've belived from the first time that I saw the video that the baby is just a symbol of hope. They may want to suggest the idea that the next generation, i mean the generation that will born from people that now is in their teenage, will be more able to face off problems, and will be more aware of hypocrisys or misinformations. I don't think that Christian and Gloria are actually teen, even because in the lyrics they have to handle problems that are suitable to adult not for teen.
Guest jetblackheart Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Agreed. I've already watched it more times that KYE and 21 guns both Me too and I can't seem to stop!
dolce Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Wooooo finally someone else who also thought of black eyeliner tears when they saw that I actually had to replay it several times at that spot to makes sure it wasn't like an extension of his bangs that were drawn in or something. Nope, definitely tears. Freaking gorgeous.
Clockwise Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Fucking amazing. One of the best GD videos ever. I watched it right when I woke up, amazing. The politicians kissing at the end made me scratch my head but that's part of the reason I love this video.
Opezi Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 this video is too awesome. we should be like in the theater and when all the previews are showing, green day should start playing.. that would be awesomeFucking amazing. One of the best GD videos ever. I watched it right when I woke up, amazing. The politicians kissing at the end made me scratch my head but that's part of the reason I love this video.so did i the first thing i did when i woke up was come to the computer to GDC and watch green day
Anko Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 It reminded my of a Jib Jab type video And after seeing the old guy yaoi I don't think I'll sleep for weeks But I did enjoy it BTW What's happening with ENJ?

I've seen it four times this afternoon At least this time Mtv italy didn't sucked like it always do
Guest jetblackheart Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 And after seeing the old guy yaoi I don't think I'll sleep for weeks I LOL'd... so loud that my cats looked at me like I was insane. :lol:
Spastic Socialite Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 I need to get a few comments to Heros and Cons off my chest -- I agree with some of her points and disagree with others.Bastard of 1967 I read what you said and i must say things are a little clearer now on the pregnancy issue. As someone else mentioned aswell the baby is kind of like a symbol for hope. Initially when viewing the video i thought it was just a little bizzare to add something like that in considering everything else is almost exact to the lyric, if you get what i mean.See this is what i love about music videos so much! Everyone sees something different in them and they can be the cause of such insightful discussion. I would never have properly understood the class of thirteen on such a deep level untill this video
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Ah I wish MTV here would play music at different times than as a filling for the night, and that TMF would play other things than the same freaking songs every time (and those songs NEVER include Green Day)
Spastic Socialite Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 What moved me about this was the sharp contrast between the surreal stenciling and the crisp, clear reality...but I don't look at this as if we're transitioning out of a dark era, inasmuch as the light is now shining on what havoc we've wreaked. To the extent that awareness of truth provides hope for the future I suppose that sort of message can be found in there, but for me personally it's more of Billie looking right at us, practically begging us to see and comprehend all that we've done to ourselves.Again reading this really gave me another great insight; i love how you worded this. Thank you

parinaz Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Thanks parinaz you're welcome. thanks to those who upload it.umm. to be honest that kissing politics part made me cry. It happened to me whenever I see something frank.
CarnageXB Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 What was with people talking about billie dying his hair last night? How did that delay the video?look at my scary avatar I made
Vrock09 Posted October 19, 2009 Posted October 19, 2009 Amazing video, but now to bed, because i stayed up all night, then had class this morning and afternoon, and later tonight, but it was so worth it!!!!!!!!!!!the video was freaking amazing, it was everything that i had hoped for for 21st century breakdown, it the kind of video i always hoped green day would make and here it is..........once again they have proven that are and will forever be legendary!!
