2020: The New Album

No problem, we certainly understand - after all, we're all in the middle of this same shit together. I've been listening to dozens of old BJ bootlegs lately to help feed my own craving for "new"/unreleased material whenever the album comes out, no matter how critical I've been about the two lead singles, I most likely can't help but buy it as well

I think we were under the impression Jon was using it to sing other people's stories and "write a song with them" but it was never confirmed their version would make the record. At least that's what I thought he said, that he already written a second verse for it.

I was under the same impression; but that "placeholder" might make sense if he incorporated lyrics from fans. Or maybe he plans to do a second "bonus" version with fan lyrics?

Maybe, yeah! It feels like a nightmare to credit someone without a publisher but I don't know that world well enough to speculate.

I understood the JBJ finished the song (for the record JBJ only), and he's singing back verses that people are submitting only for social media outlets ("we're all writing this together" blablabla).

Didn’t he already sing his second verse at the end of a news show in the US?

For sure he'll play Do What You Can here:

He confirmed on Howard.

Yup. He did.

I'm forever the optimist but I mean just release it ffs - Stream away! - We all know it would go to Number 1 and then tank after a week.
