Cris. Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 A steaming pile of crap. Worst single yet, and recently there's been plenty of duds. I laready like waaaay better than Know Your Enemy, despite the fact that i's a love song. Shrug.

WhatserKinx Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 And also, if I run downstairs and get a pair of 3D glasses from the cinema, will they work at making the video 3D? If they're the red and blue ones (I wasn't told this and tried the black sun-glasses style ones and wondered why it wasn't working )
Annie, get your gun Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 And also, if I run downstairs and get a pair of 3D glasses from the cinema, will they work at making the video 3D? No. To me it didn't change the view... not even a bit If they're the red and blue ones (I wasn't told this and tried the black sun-glasses style ones and wondered why it wasn't working ) Haha but if GD.com says it has to be 3D red and blue glasses!
mechanicalman Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 In my humble opinion it goes on too long, the first minute or so is completely pointless. I'm loathe to say it's shit so I'll go with underwhelming instead, which is probably being a bit generous.
WhatserKinx Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Haha but if GD.com says it has to be 3D red and blue glasses! I didn't see the bit that said it was meant to be the blue and red- I saw the video on my facebook newsfeed and the person had just said "try it with 3D glasses on" so I assumed I was meant to use the black ones...

Oh, you mean the ones that are used for the tv or something? I think those are kind of "new" but original 3D glasses are red/blue.
WhatserKinx Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Oh, you mean the ones that are used for the tv or something? I think those are kind of "new" but original 3D glasses are red/blue. yeah I mean I tried to watch with these ones When you're meant to use these ones:
solongfromthestars Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Could someone tell me if there's actually anything in the video that's not in the text article? No point in me getting all bummed out about not being able to see it if there's not really anything else to see
pisquano Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Maybe they got confused over the whole 'release at midnight on 17th July' thing and are releasing it at midnight tonight I've emailed itunes asking about it so I'll post if I hear anything As I said in another thread (don't remember which one actually), the UK release date is probably August 20th. http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=144149 Buzzjack (usually) doesn't make mistakes.
Guest Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Why can't people be happy about this? This is your favorite band. You don't have to like all of their songs but c'mon, reading all of that "this song sucks/fucking autotune/lyrics doesn't make sense/lame/too long" whining is really depressing. For me what sucks is to read that kind of shit. Do you want people to lie and say it's the greatest song since Stairway to Heaven simply because it's the first single since 21CB? I'm excited to see the band back at it, but a shit song is a shit song, and the more I listen to this, the more I'm convinced it's a shit song. Doesn't mean I like Green Day any less. I love the Foo Fighters, love the hell out of them, but they've had some really fucking awful songs. Same with Queen, which is actually my favorite band--not GD. I can say without much doubt that "Action This Day," "Staying Power," "Back Chat," "Dancer," and especially "Body Language" all reside on the list of the 25 worst songs ever made, but that doesn't make me any less of a Queen fan. The same logic allows me to say that "Oh Love" is a shitty, Autotuned, wandering mess of a song without precluding my happiness at seeing new albums coming out. A steaming pile of crap. Worst single yet, and recently there's been plenty of duds. Tell us how you really feel, Jay.
DannyDirnt Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I agree it's not the best option probably, but I like it a lot more than KYE, LOTAG or EJN single already lol
Heather. Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Those Queen songs you mentioned are, indeed, some of the worst pieces of music ever constructed. However, (as someone whose favorite band is also Queen) I personally would not throw Oh Love in with any of those god-awful songs, because it reminds me of GOOD Queen--in particular, a combo of Save Me and It's a Hard Life (both of which I really love).
Todd Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Oh Love's the 59th on US iTunes chart & 10th in the Alternative chart But it really NEEDS an advertisement why didn't they make one?! I wanna see it when I enter the store Up to 9th on th alternative chart now
Annie, get your gun Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Mikey says the video has fun scenes! Wooo!
tomdsjames Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 As I said in another thread (don't remember which one actually), the UK release date is probably August 20th. http://www.buzzjack....howtopic=144149 Buzzjack (usually) doesn't make mistakes. Let's hope this is one of the few mistakes. It would majorly suck for the rest of the world to get 2 singles before we've had 1.
Red Lights Flash Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 However, (as someone whose favorite band is also Queen) I personally would not throw Oh Love in with any of those god-awful songs, because it reminds me of GOOD Queen--in particular, a combo of Save Me and It's a Hard Life (both of which I really love). The first time I heard Oh Love, I thought the build-up to the first chorus (where the drums and bass kick in, "won't you take me close to you") sounded like We Are the Champions (during "I've had my share of sand kicked in my face but I've come through").
GuitarPunk94 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 will the song Makeout Party be on Dos or Tré? and i think it would be a nice idea if gda would have sth like a calendar, where you can see on what days something GD-related happens (kerrang-magazin, music video, 2nd single, pre-order start, tv appearances)..im getting a little confused with the trilogy and all those future dates
Florence Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 will the song Makeout Party be on Dos or Tré? I bet it's going to be on Dos!
lizziebix Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 yeah I mean I tried to watch with these ones When you're meant to use these ones: I used the first kind and they worked just fine. Quite cool, actually.
Guest Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Mikey says the video has fun scenes! Wooo! I must see the photo in your avatar larger. Where can I find it?
WhatserKinx Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I used the first kind and they worked just fine. Quite cool, actually. All they did was make everything darker, I know I have a pair of red and blue ones lying around somewhere from this documentary thing that was shown on TV last year, but where they are is another story...

Ours made everything pop off the screen and the movements in and out were wild. And they're definitely not the red/green kind. Oh well. Hopefully you'll find your pair!
DannyDirnt Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Let's hope this is one of the few mistakes.

Sorry, but it's very hard for me to keep track of everything.
