Ceinhannan Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Ah I'm glad it's finally out now I'll get to listen to it every minute of the day
Homero Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 I think the promotion for "Oh Love" was great, but for the other singles, nah..
abattlecry Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Why is it not available in America yet?! Maybe they'll release the single with the video?
Dalya Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 So both Stray Heart & The Forgotten will be in the US itunes on Tuesday? double_shot )
gerardsangel4977 Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 I'm really perturbed by Warner's handling of the singles/digital releases/whatever the fuck has been going on. I don't know if it's worse in America for some reason? I finally heard Let Yourself Go on the radio yesterday and it made me happy but I was also like "What the actual fuck?" I have no idea what's a single, what's a radio release, what's an iTunes digital single exclusive (what I thought LYG was), what things are released worldwide vs. Europe only or whatever. Not to mention what I'm entitled to as a part of my Ultimate box set. They're being so weird and sloppy with the singles marketing, Stray Heart appears to be no exception. I heard LYG on the radio a couple weeks ago. I was so excited, I actually tweeted about it I agree that it's confusing trying to figure out which things are meant for the radio and which not. But, as far as the box sets go, every song that's been released as a digital single so far has been included.
alecandstuff Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 Where did we hear that "The Forgotten" is coming Tuesday?
WhiteTim Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Where did we hear that "The Forgotten" is coming Tuesday? From the report that the song was being featured on the sndtrk and was going to be the single
alecandstuff Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 From the report that the song was being featured on the sndtrk and was going to be the single The soundtrack doesn't come out until the 13th? I'd be so stoked if we do get it on Tuesday! Where was this report from?
WhiteTim Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 The soundtrack doesn't come out until the 13th? I'd be so stoked if we do get it on Tuesday! Where was this report from? Singles come out before albums... And the article is in the first page
alecandstuff Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Singles come out before albums... And the article is in the first page Not universally so, also being that this is a soundtrack to a movie I was even more skeptical of a single being released in first place. But yes, I just checked and you're right! Woo! Two new songs!
stories and songs Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Warner is DREADFUL at advertising. Green Day should've had ads up on iTunes for the release of the singles and Uno, and I saw nothing. It was actually DIFFICULT to find the first few singles. I don't get it. Green Day is already an extremely popular band, and could be even more so if they marketed the music correctly. Here's hoping that Stray Heart will be in the US Tuesday! And The Forgotten - Green Day x2 is always nice.
jona92 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 EDIT: Not in Denmark Now it is in the Danish iTunes store
ConfirmPassword Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Now it is in the Danish iTunes store Yay Oh and you're kind of I new, so since I haven't met you before, welcome to the forum fellow Dane. And please stick around there are so few active people from Denmark here.
St. Jimmy the Troublemaker Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Warner should be ashamed of themselves. The promotion of the trilogy SUCKS. No one knows that Stray Heart is out, except regular GDC/GDA visitors.
GuitarPunk94 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 haha..the german iTunes store put the song off again, you cant buy it anymore
St. Jimmy the Troublemaker Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 haha..the german iTunes store put the song off again, you cant buy it anymore In the UK Store too... EDIT: Sorry, it's a mistake, it is still available in the UK iTunes Store.
GuitarPunk94 Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 maybe iTunes fucked it up and put the song too early online...since its supposed to get released tomorrow
St. Jimmy the Troublemaker Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 maybe iTunes fucked it up and put the song too early online...since its supposed to get released tomorrow Yeah and they put 15 October as the release date
.Holly Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 Agreed that Warner's handling of the singles has been truly dreadful. The only reason I knew about them was from coming on GDC. I think the rest of the promotion for the album's hasn't been great either (of course it doesn't help that the band has gone quiet after the release). Yes, they've done some promotion, but it's only really reached people that were already fans. The Twilight soundtrack is definitely the best move in my opinion.
blitzkriegdeb Posted October 22, 2012 Posted October 22, 2012 It's so confusing as to what is a single, a digital release, a music video, a live video, what dates everything gets released internationally, what's only for US, or only for England or whatever. It just seems like every week we get a new song or live video, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's kind of a clusterfuck of Green Day all at once.
