They were the point of the video. I don't understand why everyone kicking up a fuss just cause, shock horror, green day used choreographed dancers!!! i dont think its so much that they used dancers but that they were just kinda always there and did a bunch of annoying stuff.. i read all the comments (not too many so it was easy lol) and i saw that a couple ppl said that ppl didnt like how they used dancers for the Holiday video, but i like the video and think that they made it work in the video.. i personally think that the dancers for holiday was a nice touch :] now for my opinion on LOTAG video i was iffy about it.. i personally didnt like the dancers.. i get that theyre sposed to represent "modern day girls" who only follow others instead of doing their own thing but i just didnt like them.. itd be better (in my opinion at least) if they had taken out the blondes and let "Gloria" (haha LOTAG just came on my ipod XD) do the things they described.. like when it says "she's on a hunger strike for the ones who wont make it for dinner", have her tied down somewhere and have a sign that says something cheezy but effective, like "starving to see everyone have a meal" or something along those lines.. cheezy, yes but still be good for a video :]

cabot gal GSBitch Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 76863	April 2nd, 2010 at 11:49am Yeah cause Gloria just acting out the lyrics wouldn't have been boring at all
She... King For A Couple Of Days Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2299	April 2nd, 2010 at 11:51am I dont think she shoulda done it for the whole thing.. but a bit of it would be nice.
IKnowTheEnemy Idiot Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 651	April 2nd, 2010 at 12:36pm i liked it but i do agree the dancers were... interesting. like annoying at some parts but otherwise fine. the vid sorta reminded me of a happier holiday vid
Ensiferum Jackass Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 1694	April 2nd, 2010 at 01:44pm I found the dancers annoying too. But I think it was okay. I think the way the car blew up was quite clever, how she like did the gun shape with her hands and went BOOM
She... King For A Couple Of Days Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2299	April 2nd, 2010 at 01:48pm I liked the hand gun bit (: i liked pretty much all of it. Except the funny lighting, loved the way they woke up Gloria
Gloria21Guns Geek Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 351	April 2nd, 2010 at 03:44pm cabot gal: Yeah cause Gloria just acting out the lyrics wouldn't have been boring at all it prolly would have been better than just watching a couple bonde chicks just running around and doing weird dances.. like i said b4 its not really the dancers so much as the dancing.. i have no prob. with Green Day using dancers but i personally dont think it worked so much for this video.. 2nd quote response She...: I dont think she shoulda done it for the whole thing.. but a bit of it would be nice. that in a way what i meant... ok to me that sounded like i just contradicted myself (but only cause im a walking contradiction XD lol) but if i had to absolutely keep them n there for some odd reason, then id at least keep some of the shots of them dancing or them be in like a school or something and be part of the prep group who just kinda give her dirty looks..
cabot gal GSBitch Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 76863	April 2nd, 2010 at 05:37pm But the song isn't about school kids Green Day are above making music videos about school cliques, they ain't paramore.

Viva la Jenna! Jackass Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 1264	May 3rd, 2010 at 07:34pm I had a bit of a different vision of the video. I thought what they could've done was show different girls... real girls act out the lyrics, like MrsBillieJoe95 said. In the chorus, I kinda pictured the girls on a trampoline jumping up and down in slow-mo. At the end, they could've used footage of there wives and girlfriend... Tre! xD
