    I don't know, I love Not Now. I mean I'll take Some other Untitled songs over it like Feeling This, Stockholm, etc but I love it.

    I think Not Now is one of the few songs on Untitled that really bridged the gap from TOYPAJ.

    I think the love of Not Now comes from the fact that it was the last bit of blink we ever truly got. It was the perfect send off for a bitter ending of the band. I remember the first time hearing it and just wishing they hadn't broke up. I think that feeling locks in the same way nostalgia does and people latch onto it. Myself included.

    Probably unpopular, but... I can't believe All of This will get knocked out before Not Now (and Feeling This which I love but don't think it's the best on the album)

    It always felt like something Tom did mostly by himself and it never felt like genuine blink to me. It's a fine song, but it's absolutely nothing special. They didn't even bother to put it on the album.

    They still play it though, so I doubt that there's much validity to that. Also, the drums are incredible in the song.

    Isnt that true for Wishing Well, too?And I don't know if it's true for Not Now, it's simply how it always came off to me.

    The entire Neighborhoods album was done separately from what I've read in interviews.

    Yeah it is and I've found it weird that they play Wishing Well live occasionally

    Exactly. And they still play Wishing Well at times. Despite it being mostly a Tom song.

    So if Not Now was made in a similar way, it doesn't mean they wouldn't play it live. But I honestly don't know if Not Now was made that way. That's just how the song has always come across to me. Very Tom heavy, Travis/Mark are just background.

    It was recorded during the Untitled sessions, which as you know was a very cohesive project. I highly doubt that that was something Mark and Travis weren't heavily involved with like the rest of the record.

    I know Not Now was on the Japan release of untitled. Back in the day, they had to include an extra song in the international versions in order to soften the blow of the high costs to the overseas consumers. :cringe:

    "

    I love Christian rock! blink-182! "

    Not Now was as much of a written for Tom song as you would say about I'm Lost Without You, Asthenia or any other Tom led song on Untitled. It was recorded during the same sessions, and if I recall weren't both Tom and Mark upset it was only a b side?

    I think the only reason Not Now wasn't included on the untitled record was they didn't finish it in time. I know they were reviewing and updating mixes literally until the minute the album was due to the label.
