Green Day - 21 Guns

Published July 2, 2009 @ 16:53 in SLS ~ Smells Like Sour

slsI'm submitting a song for SLS22 consideration. I'm submitting "21 Guns" by Green Day.

Green Day's "Know Your Enemy" was noticeably absent from the recently unveiled SLS21. I didn't mind it, but I thought it was a little too "American Idiot" and I know these guys can do better. "21 Guns" is a great deal better.

Although I won't see it for a year, I hear this song is prominently featured in the critically lambasted Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

I never understood why labels fight so furiously to prevent us from seeing videos. Aren't videos ads for the single and album? Don't they want us to market this music for them?

Here's a MySpace version that seems to work.

When the video premiered last week there was a minor fuss about the video ripping off "Surrender" by Billy Talent, posted the comparison videos below. 21st Century Breakdown is a surprisingly good album and I'm seeing them in Hamilton, moreso to check them off the list of bands "to see", never been a passionate fan of theirs. Good tune though!

I saw them in Mississauga, Mississauga Mike. At the Hershey Centre a few years back.

They're excellent live.

Green Day AND The White Stripes played the Hershey Centre?! That venue is like a five minute drive from my house, tops.
