Awesome as Fuck

I haven't seen that, was it a single?

Unfortunately yes. And its been pretty popular I think. So I don't think anything with "fuck" in the title raises an issue. I'd say people would be more OK with it than "American Idiot" tbh. Just because people are stupid

I think it was, but I am not sure if it got radio play (edited, obviously). I don't really listen to Top40 kinda stations

Edit: Damn, I am slow! :lol:

Tony, I can see your point of view about the title possibly eliminating the CD/DVD from being sold in a few places. I'd like to see the name stay, but I can see it changing to something less "in your face."

Yep. I can see this too.

Unfortunately yes.

what do you mean unfortunately yes? cee-lo green is awesome. :thumbsup:

I just hate rap/hip-pop music. Much of it is very pointless and stupid (lyrical wise). 99% of it is made on the computer.

(my little rant on rap)

Am I the only one who feels like this is an out of date April Fools joke? :lol: I mean, don't get me wrong, it'd be awesome as fuck (literally) if that was the real title, it just sounds TOO good to be true :blink::lol:

This song isn't hip pop or rap. Technically, this is r&b or soul and some of the better soul out there, which is a steaming pile of crap lately. He's in Gnarls Barkley and is one of the most innovative musicians of any black or white genre out there. He's highly influenced by a lot of genres.

And his traveling band is made up of all women, who actually play instruments because Cee-lo actually believes in instruments...

Awesome as Fuck would be the greatest title :lol:

Although I'm not too happy about the Japan DVD only thing, even if it's not confirmed. It was one of the most likely options anyway, and now that apparently there's also a rumour about it from a good source...

edit: well that was a shitty way of saying that. I meant that it sucks that there might only be video footage of Japan, not that it'll only go to Japan.

I really like that Fuck You song. And it gets played uncensored here :D Like every song ever :lol:

Where did this rumor of a Japan only DVD pop up? We got it confirmed from the BAND'S MANAGEMENT that there is going to be a DVD

To quote Tony:

A friend of mine in Japan has heard that the DVD will be of their show(s) in Tokyo in Jan 2010. And the audio CD will be from shows around the tour. From good sources apparently.

what exactly did you get confirmed?

did they specify anything about where the DVD was filmed or anything?

(by Japan only, he means the footage is only from Japan, not that the DVD will only be available in Japan.)

Walmart wouldn't stock it, that's for sure!

Lol, wouldn't be the first time!

I LOVE that title for so many reasons - it says it all really. :banana: I REALLY, REALLY hope that sticks.

"Awesome as fuck" would be an amazing title. Seriously...

About the DVD... Hm, I'm not sure about it. I'm actually a fan of "only one show Live DVDs" but the Japanese shows were my least favourite ones because Billie's voice was pretty weak in my opinion. Well, we'll see :)

Posted

That would be... awesome as fuck! :woot:

I really hope that's the title, and March is only 3 months from now!

*Trying not to get too excited just in case* :runaround:

I'm still highly skeptical about the name and the release date.

Of course I'd love it all to be true, but I'm not getting my hopes up just yet.

Ohhh OK. My bad. I misunderstood and didn't feel like going back and finding something :lol:

But management told us that there "will be a DVD." Nothing about where the footage would be from or anything =/

I was (and still am) hoping for the US tour to be filmed for the DVD.

Everything from style to setlist was amazing.

Yea, I think we all know the drill. Wait until it happens. But... I don't really see Amazon publishing that w/o it happening. But, we'll see.

Would it be too impossible of a situation that you guys could get a confirm or deny from their management regarding this Awesome as Fuck rumor? :ermm:

nah I don't believe it's going to be Japan Only. But If it is, let it be. =)

chah!

it's always the mods that tell people to go back and read :lol:

and I didn't think they'd tell us anything more. dayam.

Everyone wants their part of the tour on the DVD, but obviously, not everyone is going to get what they want.

I'm just thrilled that we're getting the CD/DVD at all. Anything else is a bonus :)

I've seen amazon list books that were still 'going to print' for a whole year, or even change publishers while being listed.

It's not out of the question by any means for them to change a name.

To quote Tony:

Thanks, i believe it came from Warner Japan. This magazine writer in Japan tweeted about it, if you can read Japanese!

Yep. But I think we've also noted that it was subject to change, too. So, we're on the same page.

I'm 100% convinced now that it is.

it is confirmed that the live album/dvd will release around end of spring/early summer, but march is just the beginning of spring.?..(in addition to amazon)
