Y'know, I'm probably gonna get a lot of shit for this, and I'm not saying I'm not happy they played them, but they're not that amazing. They're decent songs, sure, but you can see why with C&V they decided to start over and I'm really glad they did, because the basic ideas are obvious in that song buttaking into account AI / 21CB with that song as kind of a starting point, it's obvious how much they expanded on those ideas and turned them into something amazing, rather than a mediocre song which I feel C&V is.

Sorry if I offended anyone with that, don't get me wrong I'm really happy to hear them. I'm just glad they decided to push themselves all those years ago because I think if they had released C&V as an album instead of AI, things would be really different for them now.

Nah, I agree with you, mainly. I really like it, but I'm definitely glad they turned C&V at least (idk when or for what Olivia was written) down in favour of making American Idiot.

I'd still like to hear more C&V songs, because I do like it. It sounds a lot like an opener song, the first song of the album. Which would make sense, considering it has the same name as the album.

I still think Cigs&Valentines sounds very familiar. I don't know why. I'm fairly sure I don't know that song that was posted earlier that was similar to it, so that's not it either.

..it go on and what's wrong with her

we .... and step in the mud

It makes no sense but you misunderstood

The city is in ruins, but there's a flower in the crack of the streets

Olivia, Olivia, I'll give you my best

safe in my arms, all laid to rest

you can borrow my coat, you and the dress

Olivia, Olivia, come follow me home

not sure about the "you and the dress" part, and also not sure about the first two lines;..

But all the rest I'm pretty sure it fits...

I really, really like the chorus, AND "The city is in ruins, but there's a flower in the crack of the streets"

all I can say wohoooooo :banana: I'm so looking forward to the live album :happy:

The song reminds me a bit of Scattered, Burnout, 'Stay the Night', Nice Guys Finish Last.. I don't know. And yet it sounds new at the same time. I just love it. :wub:

Posted

I loved both of the songs. Olivia was really sweet. :happy:

Olivia is a little wordy for me. It almost sounds like a folk song.

But honestly everyone, to each their own. Don't let anyone bring you down if you like or don't like these songs. Not everything Green Day does is perfect and not everyone is going to like everything.

I can't find the right adjective to describe Olivia. I hope we'll get a full version of it, some time (not necessarily a studio recording... I think like this it already sounds wonderful).

I wonder if Olivia is the same as Wonderful, or not. It'd help if we had the lyrics. But I don't really get much out of it, I suck at figuring out lyrics xD

...... and watch from afar

.... and step in the mud

it makes me whole sense (????????yeah..) well you misunderstood

this city's in love but there's a girl on the back of the streets

Olivia, Olivia, I'll give you my best

... my arms and I'll lay you to rest

You can borrow my clothes you and that dress (that doesn't sound right :lol:)

Olivia, Olivia, come far .....

This sounds much better than my version, I think you got most of it. Although I love the flower in the crack of the streets thing, great image, I really hear girl and back, not flower and crack...

Yeah, I hadn't read your post yet when I started my mission of finding the lyrics, haha.

You gave me certainty about the words I was doubting 'bout... "I'll lay you to rest " is so romantic ^^

I really want to know what sings in the second line...

Thanks for the videos. Finally we know how it sounded C&V, I like it, it reminds me a little bit of old stuff, and Olivia is pretty cool. I like both songs.
