Blink-182 [ARCHIVED] Band • Page 1041

Listened to Rich Roll's podcast with Travis, doesn't include any new information, but it's still a really great listen.

 

This past summer was one of the best in my life and as I sit here listening to California 7 months later, I'm happy to say that this whole album already brings back great memories

 

"It isn't a popularity contest..."

Isn't it? Isn't it, though?

 

First post in a long long time, Im a big blink fan and I finally got my way in to ask Mark this question lol, does anyone else know what the secret lyrics are that have been haunting me for over 10 years?

 

No but I hope he get backs to you as I too am very interested to find out what he's saying

 

'A certain look in your eyes
When you open your eyes who'll stand by your side
So watch my eyes, watch them turn while you go change
Curtains down when all there skin was cut and i bled
There were forces of John Joes
I can't make you happy It seems, all I ever do is try
You could never cut me deep enough to leave a scar
So take this gift its something to save'

5. She's out of Her Mind

 

Listened to Hey I'm Sorry for the first time. How did this not make the album when tracks like Kings Of The Weekend, Teenage Satellites, The Only Thing That Matters, and Rabbit Hole made the cut. Those 4 sound like total filler to me.

4: San Diego
5: Left Alone

 

1. San Diego
2. Bored To Death

Stealing this list

 

1. She's Out of Her Mind
2. Bored to Death
3. Cynical
4. San Diego
5. Sober

 

1. Bored to death
2. San Diego
3. Cynical
4. Los Angeles
5. HISALP

 

1. San Diego
2. Cynical
3. Left Alone
4. She's Out Of Her Mind
5. Rabbit Hole

 

I actually would put Rabbit Hole in my top 5, but I agree with the other 3. Total filler. KOTW and TS are two of my least favorite Blink songs.

 

KW and TS grew on me, especially TS. I still rank KW pretty low on the California ranking but TS goes mid/midlow tier

 

I put TS 5th which was really surprising to me. But it's grown on me a ton since the beginning.

 

Matt just sells his verse and the chorus so well. I LOVE matts verse in that song, especially the "nights are numbered" and "left abandoned" lines. It's not even the words it's the way he sings/yell sings them
