Back to spinning the wheel today

Wheel of Names


I got TMTTS!

 

That song wasn’t basically premiered by a massive Livenation fest of the same name though, around the same time of the release.

I just think a giant corporation such as Livenation might of sent some cash to use the phrase “When We Were Young” especially when other giant brands have done the same in the past.
I’m not saying it’s definitely what happened but similar things have been happening behind the scenes for a while now.

chorus still rips just seems very convenient that they are releasing a song around the same time as the fest that could be used as a jingle that can be shared by their social media team for as long as “When We Were Young” is a thing.

Could be coordinated, could not be. I guess I don't really care either way as long as the song kicks ass.

 

Green Day closing the fest. Schedule out

 

Regardless the song title/ fest name lines up with the bands ethos coincidental or not, and most importantly I’m bored on a Monday afternoon without a new Blink album to play in the background

 

Fenix TX opening up for blink-182...
Just like the good ol days.

 

Still kinda baffled that Green Day are headlining over Blink in 2023.

Everytime I go out I at least hear 2-3 Blink songs, and people go wild for them everytime.

 

With Tom taking the lead on most of this album's vocals, is it possible that this was done to not push Mark too hard, post-recovery? He's mentioned previously that they're doing the bare minimum before shows so that he has enough energy to make it through a whole night. Just a thought.

 

Im gonna bet what Mark can and can't handle on tour isn't playing a role in how they write songs together. I've always viewed Tom more as lead vocals than Mark so this doesn't come as a shock to me, especially coming off of two albums where Mark was lead.

 

Maybe I've missed it, but I'm surprised there hasn't been more comments about blink now having a song called "When we were young" when they previously wrote a song called "when I was young." I guess it isn't all that surprising when we have Anthem pt. 3, letters to go pt 2 etc lol

 

That's been the case for a long time. Lol.

And their affinity to name songs based off of file names... blink.wav, MH 4.18.2011. Or time signatures: 6/8. haha

 

nothing is called blink.wav haha

"blink wave" is the song i assume you're referring to. but it was named that because it's like a synthwave song, and the working title was blink wave, and they kept it.
