On reflection, while Oh Love does kinda grow on you, Stay the Night would have been the perfect choice for first single. Most GD fans have already heard it in a rough 2-year old live form, and it's probably going to be one of the best songs on the trilogy. For a first single, it was a really bad move to pick one of the slowest songs on the album. Loads of fans have completely lost interest in UDT, even though there's plenty of evidence of great work.
EDIT: Here are 13 short instrumental clips of upcoming songs. Oh Love is among them. It doesn't even compare to the rest! Easily the worst clip there. No idea why it was a single.

Re: Green Day
Not sure what to think of the track just yet. I don't think the right fit was for it to be a first single. I'm sure it'll grow on me, but I know they'll be better songs to come!

Re: Green Day
Check out Green Day's 'official' live video of the 2nd/3rd single, Let Yourself Go!
Sounds a lot better than Oh Love; has a great pace, and I can hear a little Insomniac in there. Bab's Uvula Who anyone?

Re: Green Day
Based on what I've heard since Oh Love, I kinda have lost interest. I'll listen to the albums..but I'm not looking forward to them as much as I was.

Re: Green Day
Listen to the premier of the new single Kill the DJ at 7.30 on BBC Radio 1 tonight! There will also be an interview with the band about the upcoming trilogy.

EDIT: Well, that was fucking awesome. It'll be on YouTube within minutes. I'll post here when it does.

Re: Green Day
Yeah, thats what i thought, cause i have the live version as a mp3 and thats how it goes so i was confused and a lil let down at this studio one. hopefully when they release it as a single soon they will have the explicit studio version that i can buy.samueeL wrote:Yeah, in proper version the chorus goes:Noreason757 wrote:so is this like a clean version?

Re: Green Day
What happened?? In 2009 Walmart asked the band to release a clean version of 21st Century Breakdown so they could sell it. The band told Walmart to fuck off.

Re: Green Day
Oh yea! THIS is the Green Day I wanted! Not that "Oh Love" shit!
It's really a completely different sound from Green Day. It's so different from anything they've ever done before. This song restored my hope for the trilogy.
