For those of you who don't know, the video will be airing on MTV TWO every hour today :)

Yep, see my earlier post. :wink:

Overnight the planner updated and it is now in TMF's and VH1's schedules - yes the video is a scheduled prog in its own right on all these channels each time it is shown today.

I guess there is no escaping the 21CB video in the UK today. :D

Anyone else notice that the spinning Billie head comes out of where his heart should be, so Billie's heart is actually a spinning head of himself. and then in his mouth, there's a massive staircase where two guys make out.

I love this video. :wub:

I couldn't see the video in the listings for MTV2 last night but it's there now xD I'm taping it :D

The more I watch the vid, the more I'm like.. :wub: :wub:

Could someone make a gif of the part where Billie shoots himself and blood appears on the wall behind him? Idk how to make that, but it would be awesome!

With all of these things when you see it on a big screen it looks so much better.

As always MTV just cannot help themselves, the 'bastards' in bastards of 69 was muted out, but everything else was there. Also a shame MTV need to put up such large video title boxes especially in the end sequence.

TMF have a big Viva banner across the screen at the moment, so I will record from VH1 later, but no doubt Scuzz will save us all.

True, maybe that is why MTV allow 'sodomised' in EJN but not 'bastards' in 21CB.

LOL I wish Vista would let you have moving images as backgrounds like XP did! :lol:

Here's a few more, I don't know if girltype on LiveJournal made these (she's the one who posted the video on ONTD, where I got the spinning head gif and she posted the gifs) or not, but she posted them:

I have not commented on this video as yet so here goes:

American Idiot was acclaimed and it was helped in no small part by the title helping to get the message across. Let us be clear, a LOT of people do not listen to lyrics, they just hear them.

IMO, the 21CB video on the other hand is making the strongest political statement as yet by Green Day (not withstanding the stage guests acting the fallen christ in the EJN video - how amazing was that ? ).

The only way to get some people to listen is to spell out to them. I never thought I would write this but kudos to Marc Webb.

This helps in the longer run to get 21CB more widely (and rightly) acclaimed as a classic, and look at the potential for future singles on 21CB....

Exactly. The song is not easy to get at all, the demonstration is that, five months after the album came out, we are still discussing on the meaning of it, the visual imaginary that this video's added to the lyrics make everything more clear. I think also at all of those people outside US and Uk (and a few other countries) that can not handle the english language so well. I guess that this video is going to make more people aware of what the entire album is about. :)

It's on MTV2 now :D

This video should be raped on TV. People NEED to see this. ITS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE. If it doesnt win every award possible for videos...then something is wrong AND BILLIE WILL HAVE TO DO A KANYE :lol:

Can you imagine that. :lol: Billie going Kanye on an awards show :lol:

IMA LET YOU FINISH, BUT MY VIDEO WAS THE BEST MADE THIS DECADE YO.

:lol:

Awesome! :lol:

Btw... do you think the boy who's running in the beginning is supposed to look like young-Billie or is this just a coincidence?

He's a young Billie for sure coz the first part of the song concerns Billie's childhood.

not really. 'bastard' is tecnically a swear word, and you're not allowed to swear on british tv.
