McCartney Unveils Liverpool‑Rooted Lead Single Ahead of The Boys of Dungeon Lane

Paul McCartney released the lead single “Days We Left Behind” from his 18th solo album, The Boys of Dungeon Lane, due May 29. The track and LP lean into his Liverpool childhood (Dungeon Lane is a Speke street near his youth home) and were produced with Andrew Watt in sessions across Los Angeles and Sussex. The 14‑track album follows McCartney III (2020) and includes songs such as “As You Lie There” in its track list, reflecting a retrospective yet fresh chapter for the former Beatle.

Kid Rock’s All-American Halftime Show Delivers Mild, Retro-Flavor Super Bowl Moment

Kid Rock’s 35-minute All-American Halftime Show at Super Bowl LX was notably low on politics and largely pre-recorded, mixing a retro country vibe with a few on-mic remarks; the set featured Brantley Gilbert, Gabby Barrett and Lee Brice before Kid Rock closed with “Till You Can’t,” including a spoken verse and a montage of TPUSA imagery. Social attention focused more on lip-sync than mic moments, and TPUSA posted an alternate feed that drew millions online, though overall cross-platform viewership details remained unclear.

Green Day Sparks Super Bowl LX Pre-Show With American Idiot Medley

Green Day opened the Super Bowl LX pre-game with a medley from American Idiot—Holiday, Boulevard of Broken Dreams, and American Idiot—highlighting the band’s protest roots; NBC’s broadcast reportedly garbled the lyric “the subliminal mind-fuck America,” and there was no MAGA-verse insertion this time. Lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong has previously criticized ICE, and the pre-game lineup also featured Coco Jones, Brandi Carlile, and Charlie Puth, with Bad Bunny headlining the halftime show.
