Oh Love...

*Breaking News...sort of* Green Day's new single has been announced! (cue hallelujah cries)

'Oh Love' has been confirmed to be the first single from Uno, and is to be released on 16th July, which is just three weeks from now.

This was the tweet that broke the news:
@GreenDay: The first single from ¡Uno! will be "Oh Love" and will hit the airwaves on July 16th. Stay tuned for more details!

Gotta say, this is exciting stuff! Unexpected too, because i thought they would choose a song with more energy, like Carpe Diem. When we got the rubbish quality recordings from the secret show in Texas last year, Oh Love sounded quite soft and lacking the energy that i have come to expect from Green Day, although it was one of the tracks that stood out the most to me. I wouldn't have thought it would be a single so i guess i was pleasantly surprised!

Also, I can't believe how soon this announcement has come. I thought if anything we would be waiting until August for a single. It's great that they are getting it all out now to give us something to really look forward to.

I just hope the promo for this single and the three albums is much better than with 21st Century Breakdown.

For anyone who wants it, this is the live recording of Oh Love from their Texas show:
