WTF! MTV still doesn't know his name... :tired:

If it had an ad, it definitely would be... Not sure why Reprise would pass that up.

You're probably right about that... No Doubt has the huge ad on the iTunes homepage.

Warner though might have to save its money for other things---they've got 3 times as much shit to promote. Maybe the next single will get more support in that regard.

Good point -- especially if "Oh Love" was intended as the warm-up act. It might also get a boost when the video drops in a few weeks.

From http://www.mtv.com/n...otch-area.jhtml Check out the video there! (The MTV website frequently blocks people in other countries.... not sure if that's the case now but I apologize on their behalf if you're outside North America and can't see it :( )

Billie Joe Armstrong: ‘Oh Love’ is kind of like leading with your heart and not necessarily with your brain as much, and [also] kind of maybe losing your mind, and shooting a little bit more from the crotch area. It’s more of a fun atmosphere with these next records, going into more of a party thing, almost kind of a ‘hell party,’ We have one song called ‘Makeout Party,’ which the events actually occurred. And that’s almost what the next video for ‘Oh Love’ is sort of like. So, it’s going to be a lot of fun touring this next cycle and bringing it to people live.

Mike Dirnt: It pulls from the heartstrings, and it’s about love and sexual tension and things like that; that said, I think the video is gonna tip its hat in those directions, I know we’ve got some real fun scenes that might involve motorcycles and us playing live and possibly some chaos backstage and things like that.

They spelled "Billie" wrong at the begining :P

GET IT SORTED, UK iTUNES.

Maybe they got confused over the whole 'release at midnight on 17th July' thing and are releasing it at midnight tonight :dry:

I've emailed itunes asking about it so I'll post if I hear anything

I love how at the end of the video, Billie's messing around with the button on his chest... :happy: *trying not to think wrong*...

"And if you push *this* button, laser beams will come shooting out of my titties - watch!!" -- right before that part is where they cut tape. :)

And it seems to be shot from the place where they filmed the music video, so that probably means we're getting another behind the scenes video! :D

I love how Mike is talking quite a lot more in this era! Also, UK is getting pretty marginated these days! First the Oh Love video and now this xD

:( Can someone upload it to Youtube for us UK people?

I think most of that making of (the musci vids) stuff will be featured in the Trilogy Documentary (maybe in the ''exclusive DVD'' one on gd.com only) and maybe even posted beforehead :)

Makeout Party- Billie Joe's birthday ;)

Well... I can see it still in Poland. I just must choose, which MTV page I want to see ;)

Must Billie during every interview do something with his hands?!

The really bad thing about a lot of us is that most of us have been fans for 5+ years (I'm not quite there yet, but I'm at 3 this October :wub:), so we have a set idea on what a Green Day song sounds like and we know their potential, so we're really critical about the lyrics and everything.

It's like seeing them live (still haven't gotten that either -.-). A lot of people have seen them before at least once and there's some who have seen them a countless amount of times- because of this, they have a set idea on how a Green Day show should go/sound. They'll be able to spot when something is off and they're not really at their best.

Then you have those who get to see them for the very first time and they're like "Oh my god this is amazing!! Nobody could get any better!!"

But the point of my rant is this:

Because most of us have been listening long enough to know that they're very much capable of doing something simple or complex, we kinda expect something a little more complex. The song seems a bit too simple lyric wise compared to others. It's catchy (which is pretty well expected at this point imo :lol:) and all, but the lyrics seem a bit too simple and repetitive.

---------------------

I must say though, the song is growing on me more and more :happy: I liked it from the first listen, but I'm really really beginning to fall in love with it :happy::wub:

I admit that I listened to about half of this last night and did not like it at all. But now that I've listened to it again (and again and again), I'm hooked. It sounds so new, yet like something they could've easily put out pre-AI.

That video is hideous though.

A steaming pile of crap.

Worst single yet, and recently there's been plenty of duds.

Therein lies the challenge, my grasshopper! :whistle

I've tried a few different proxy websites and it still won't work on my computer :( Is anyone else having this problem?

Naah, bad thing. It worked for me.

Maybe you can find somebody with a YT account here that would like to upload it for you..

The video is showing perfectly in Venezuela. Sorry for you UKers :( I'm sure it'll be in youtube or something in no time though.

I just keep getting a blank page when I try using those sites :(

Getting the feeling the Brittish aren't welcome in Green Day world

J/K (I hope)

That's what's happening to me too. :( I guess we'll just have to hope someone puts it on Youtube.
