Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 303

Adam's Song was on the radio today. I still get supper giddy when that happens.

 

I love Cheshire Cat.

 

Cheshire Cat songs are great...production wise...even for that time...very bad. I cannot stand that the kick drum isn't mixed correctly.

 

Fentoozler is underrated

 

Cacophony is underrated. Parts of it sound like it could flow on Untitled.

 

I remember hearing the singles from Enema all over the radio back in '99/'00 and being so excited every time I heard them. Even though I had the record at home and listened to it constantly, I still felt like they were my band, and I was super proud they were getting all that air play.

 

Blink are nearing 5.5 million monthly Spotify listeners.

Huge increase from pre-BTD.

 

Which one of you is "ImNOTTomDelonge" on Xbox?

Just played a match with him haha

 

Exactly.

 

I bet it was Skiba.

 

I specifically remember hearing what's my age again while school shopping in 1999 but I didn't know it was blink until they said it at the end. My home life was a huge mess at the time and I had no idea blink was so popular. It felt great hearing that, like, something good was happening with the world.

I also remember hearing dammit on the car radio in 1998 or 1999. Just that feeling of hearing your favorite band on the radio was so fulfilling.

 

It's mother's day!

 

Damn right it is!

 

See I didn't get to have memories like this. :/ I wasn't into music much, and then my freshman year of high school I had to do a PowerPoint project on rock bands. I picked the usual a, Acdc Metallica Etc. that everyone knows about. Linkin park because they were popular. Alkaline trio and brand new because I knew them. But I remembered my best friend loved blink182, so I made a slide about them using their Wikipedia page. Had to list a few of their popular songs, and I used limewire(aka computer AIDS) to download some, the first one I played was stay together for the kids. I was hooked instantly and bought every cd. This was at the time untitled came out. That actually spurred my music tastes, and soon taking back Sunday, my chemical romance, breaking Benjamin and countless more were not far behind. Now I'm a music nerd lol. I think the reason I wasn't huge into music was because I hadn't found a genre that spoke to me. Blink got me there.

 

That's a cool memory in and of itself.

 

Ha yeah, I guess it is. Now blink is my favorite and I'm obsessed with them lol. Even went as far as to get the smiley tattooed on my arm. Crazy how that works

 

That's awesome! Pic?

 

I was late to the party. I think it was 2007 when I discovered Blink. My friend from xbox live was into them and I looked up a few of their songs and was instantly hooked. Bought their Greatest Hits, watched all their music videos, the live sets on YouTube, the interviews and joke videos, and eventually got the rest of their discography. Before that Linkin Park was my favorite band. There was something about Blink's sense of humor and not taking themselves seriously that made them so endearing to me. Seeing them on the reunion tour was a dream come true. Can't wait to see them again this July.

 

How do I insert pictures into this?!? Lol

 

If you're on mobile, turn your phone horizontal and some options will show up above.

 

@BTDandFeelingThis Limewire!? Wow talk about a throwback. I used to use Morpheus.

 

Napster, Limewire, Morpheus, and Kazaa for me.

 

Very nice.

 

Limewire frostwire and kazaa. Funny how many viruses and mislabeled songs you got from that. Like system of a down singing that Zelda song(wasn't them but every file on limewire said so)
