Date filtering in views stop working after 'year' filter

I'm sure I've tried solving this myself for far too long, since I have to retain myself from going over to the neares wall, and kind of lay my head against it, and just... sob.

I'm not a code hotshot, but this is what I'm trying to accomplish.
I've created a new content type, with a 'date' field in it.

When I create a view that shows me all of that content type, all works well.
When I change that view to filter only the year (set on 'now') I still see my content. Which still is what I want.
I understood that the filters are all 'AND' so I added a filter to narrow things down to 'month' = 'now' and foof... no more content in the view.

I have already thrown away the content type, with the fields, and the views and started it all again (multiple times) and I kep hitting the same wall. Can someon please help me solve this? I so want to use Drupal for this site.
