Up to #55 on Modern with a decent shot of debuting in two chart weeks.
This was the obvious crossover hit when I heard it three months ago. I bought the CD this morning, but haven't heard the whole album outside of the original 6 yet. I'm already a little disappointed that March Of The Dogs didn't make the album. It was one of my favorites on the promo release.
But regardless, this could be their biggest hit to date.

A) This is by no means a confirmed single
B) this is one of the biggest alternative bands ever. A bunch of their songs from 21st Century Breakdown are gonna hit the top 50, maybe even top 50 just because its Green Day
But at least your being logical, as this probably will be the next singe as its the most pop friendly crossover hit

I'll give you my house if this is not a single. Know Your Enemy was too plain in my (and many eyes). This, although it's a bit too obvious, is what radio is wanting on most formats for a shakeup. It's not spectacular to me, but it will get the job done for them.

Hey I wasnt really arguing, Im just saying that the #55 on Modern argument is irrelevant because a bunch of songs off the album are gonna end up around there this week, I think its gonna be single #2 as well |

Yeah, no way they push a new single this early, "Know Your Enemy" still has a lot of firepower.

I think the backlash for Know Your Enemy has already or will begin soon. Thanks for the March Of The Dogs update. I do see East Jesus Nowhere on the back. I wonder why they did that.

Possibly. But I'm sure Madonna wasn't too pissed when they put out Holiday a few years ago.

If this is release as the next single, I wouldn't expect it to be sent to radio for at least two or three months. "Know Your Enemy" is going to be around for quite awhile longer with no intention of slowing down over the next month or so.

It is listed on the album sticker, which typically counts for something. I'm sure it will be a single. It is one of the best songs on the album for sure.
What is this promo release people are speaking on?

A lot of magazines and I guess radio stations and etc. got a 6-song promo of the album way back when and there were a lot of articles on it.

Right. Everything on the promo made the album, but names were changed to protect the innocent.

What is this promo release people are speaking on? I remember them putting "The End" on the sticker for the Simple Plan self-titled album, and I don't believe that was ever a single (Despite it being my favorite song from the album.) Just sayin. Lol |

Well, I guess not always, but I've noticed with most albums I get it ends out being true.
I cannot see them not having 21 Guns be a single at some point. Maybe not 2nd (should be though) but it must be a single

I'm betting they'll either do this or Viva La Gloria! next. |

Peacemaker is quickly becoming one of my favorite songs on the album, and I think it would make a great alt single. I think after 21G, they should release East Jesus Nowhere, Peacemaker, and Last of the American Girls.

Gotta send something to pop soon. When did Boulevard come out? That was the second single after "American Idiot" (the song). I believe it was at least three or four months afterwards. |

I know the album came out before Boulevard did, but it wasn't by much was it? I can't imagine Green Day letting the album sit on the shelves for months before pushing a pop single.

Weird. Album sales are going to tank if Know Your Enemy is the only thing pushing this until July when they finally drop a pop single.
