pisquano Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 Maybe they'll release more singles now that they're more mainstream? I don't know...But it's true that the choices of singles were not the greatest... like the order. I would have realeased 21stCB first. To get things straight. kinda.Know your enemy is just... not THAT original and great.I THINK THE SAME. Singles choice is not the best one but it isn't so bad. I think that the order is wrong and 21st CB had to be the 1st single. Know Your Enemy is one of the best songs of the record, and they released it as a single just because it's suitable for radio stations. In fact, Know Your Enemy peaked at something like 45 in the US airplay, 21 guns at something like 65.
farley drexel hatcher Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 **********************************An email I received from the programming director, Michael Cross, at my local rock station Rock 108:This doesn't sound good at allI wouldn't take too much out of this, sounds like the guy's opinion rather than based on anything true. That would be my opinion too, but then given the fact they're still touring the album in other parts of the world, i'm sure they'll put out at least one more single.
OliDayyy Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I don't think what the guy said is reliable. I mean, the album isn't even 1 year old! And the band is still touring.
matteo263 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I was counting every country. KYE, 21 Guns, EJN, 21CB... thats four singles. And four singles seems to be the norm for Green Day albumsDookie: 5 (Lonview, Welcome to Paradise, Basket Case, She, When I Come Around)Insomniac: 4 (Geek Stink Breath, Stuck With Me, Brain Stew/Jaded, Walking Contradiction)Nimrod: 4 (Hitchin' a Ride, Good Riddance, Redundant, Nice Guys Finish Last)Warning: 4 (Minority, Warning, Waiting, Macy's Day Parade)American Idiot: 5 (American Idiot, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, Holiday, Wake Me Up When September Ends, Jesus of Suburbia)21st Century Breakdown: 4 (Know Your Enemy, 21 Guns, East Jesus Nowhere, 21st Century Breakdown)since 2004 things changedThings are more about singles than everbeyonce released about 8 ..pink 6...britney 4 this year so well GD should release more
ClassOfEleven Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 American Eulogy!!!!!!!I would love that song to be the next single !
Metanoia Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 mmh... so its last of the american girls.......im really really not happy with that to be honest..there are so many better songs on 21st cb........they really should have chosen another one :/ its one of my least favorite tracks :/ but however its gonna be the next one....
Sanity Loan Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Two of the best songs on 21CB have been released as singles and they didn't do shit.... didn't even get noticed. Its a shame. (I'm talking about 21CB and EJN)

Katarina. Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Come on, Peacemaker and The Static Age! Please <3
Metanoia Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 Come on, Peacemaker and The Static Age! Please <3ya peacemaker or restless heart syndrome would have been way better....they should make one of those as next one after lotag.........or one of the viva la glorias
Katarina. Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 ya peacemaker or restless heart syndrome would have been way better....they should make one of those as next one after lotag.........or one of the viva la glorias It would be beyond awesome if they released Viva La Gloria (Little Girl) as a single Or RHS..
Clayish Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 I just realized this. The first rock band dlc pack had the first 3 singles, and the 2nd pack has LOTAG, Christians Inferno, and Viva La Gloria!Since LOTAG, It makes me wonder if CI or Gloria will be a single

Clayish Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 if gloria was im gonna dance around like an idiot !If Christians Inferno is a single, Green Day has officially lost their minds.It would totally bomb.
The Disappearing Boy Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 that would be cool. but LOTAG was the 4th single. i guess there is room for one more.
Metanoia Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 that would be cool. but LOTAG was the 4th single. i guess there is room for one more.thats what i thought too =(
Modern Zero. Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 I'm really disappointed that LOTAG is going to be the next single. I REALLY want American Eulogy to be a single, but I don't think that it's going to happen. I mean, COME ON. American Eulogy would be PERFECT. It's unique, but it's still catchy at the same time! It's different, because Mike sings in it and people will be interested in hearing a different voice in the band. And the song would be just a perfect song to hear on the radio! It's the most epic song on the album imo, and it NEEDS to be a single. I thought that choice would be kinda obvious....:/ They really should have some kind of "single poll" or something on their website, so that the fans can choose the song that they want to be a single. Either that, or it would be awesome if they had fan conferences or something like that! LMAO. Seriously though...I'm not at all happy with this choice.

GREEN DAY AND WARNER NEEDS TO READ GDC!OUR OPINION COUNTS IN!
Modern Zero. Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 GREEN DAY AND WARNER NEEDS TO READ GDC!OUR OPINION COUNTS IN!DEFINATELY. But seriously though. I feel like this is one of the MAJOR reasons why 21CB isn't as popular as it should be. That...and Walmart, and because a lot of the music videos just....sucked. 21 Gun's was good, but KYE's was horrible imo. And also, just sucky promotion to begin with. This album deserves WAY more cred than it's getting! And I know that it's not all about being popular and getting tons of awards and stuff like that, but they deserve it! When Taylor Swift gets tons more Grammy nominations than Green Day, something it clearly wrong.

When Taylor Swift gets tons more Grammy nominations than Green Day, something it clearly wrong.I think so. I'm addicted to charts, and I think Green Day deserve more. And they did not make the right choice choosing KYE as the first single...and the video sucked. I just hate seeing Black Eyed Peas, Taylor Swift or Lady Gaga that top every music chart.

Just OMG
Sanity Loan Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 OMG, if that's be true, and Viva La Gloria or Christian's Inferno will be the next single(s).. Just OMG I would be thinking that Warner and Green Day have lost their minds...
Kayfabe Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 i think maybe it's a bit early to think about this.We're looking forward to one better than lotag ¬.¬ don't crush our dreams.I would like... Either of the Glorias, BTL, Murder City or AE. If not then RHS, if not that either then H&H or the Static age.Jeez, it is really hard to pick a bad single from 21CB but warner has managed to pull it off
novacaine_kid Posted February 2, 2010 Posted February 2, 2010 LOTAG Is a great song, and its radio friendly, but I wouldn't have chosen it. And I think judging by the comments a lot of others wouldn't have either. I just hope the video doesn't suck.
