Official Blink 182 Thread

[Untitled]

Yo man, blink is the shiznit and you know it. :)

Anyways, I'm pretty sure a bunch of us went through our n00bish names. I know I did. :p Even Butler (Untitled) got his name from blink. My first MX name was sumblinkracer41 I think, but that got deleted or something.
Ahhh, so true. :thumb: But mine is more subtle then "BLINK 182 ROCK MY ****!!"

Also +44 site wont load for me either.

[dancetomdance182]

My name is pretty lame. But I don't really care.

[HitHardDrums55]

ive had the same name since i started using mx. and i think it's pretty cheesy....but i really dont care its easy for me to remember if it ever gets logged out for any reason....its usually always logged in

Don't you have to create a whole new account?

[Pazz]

Don't you have to create a whole new account?

You can ask for a name change, but not everyone gets accepted.

[Bad Blood]

If you go into the site forum, there's a thread where you can change your username. You have to follow the format on the first page of the thread to get noticed and considerated. Most requests get done, though.

[These_Green_Eyes]

Ok, I swore to myself that i would never post in this thread, but I saw your name, and I just had to say:
I really don't like you.
That is all.
You can now go back to your false idol worship.

Good job for causing almost half a page of spam.

We should play a blink game. This thread is getting boring without any news from +44 and AVA.

Well theres whatever the site has to say when its put up.

About Plus 44 Countdown
December 27, 2005, 01:09:56 by aaa.com.

Ok guys, I was reading comments like "The Countdown is over but nothing happened!". I will give you a good reason why! Your own System Time on your PC influences the Countdown! So if you are living in a European Country the Countdown will reach 0 earlier than in the US. But nothing will happen till the Countdown reaches 0 in San Diego! (Switch to the San Diego Time Zone and you can see how long you have to wait!)


That is from the AVA website. I wonder what is happening, and it's good that the AVA site is informing the P44 fans.

"Also there is a strange countdown on the Plus 44 website. Maybe it is the launch date of the official website."

That pretty much told us what it was, and if I'd read it earlier, I would have known what the countdown was definately for days ago.

[Pazz]

It should have hit 12 in Sandiego a long time ago. They are only 3 hours behind me and it's 4:37pm here.

[Bad Blood]

This bulletin was posted on Plus 44's MySpace:
Subject: Time zone error.

Body: Hello everyone,
Last night Kerry the web manager posted a bulliten saying there were only 15 min. left till the countdown was over. In all the confusion he fogort to remember that the countdown would end diffrently for him. He was on the east coast for the holidays and was 3 hours behind San Diego's time zone. We apoligize for all the confusion. Due to some technical difficulties plusfortyfour.com nothing has changed. So hold on and be prepared....

-Much Love,
Rob

Oic.

[dancetomdance182]

Oh so that makes sense. They should have a universal time countdown. Also, make sure to have things on time. I remember eagerly wating for the AVA podcast...it was like 3 days late. But it was a dissapointment anyway.

[Bad Blood]

Yeah.

I'm not getting my hopes up for this too much.

[Untitled]

the +44 site is back up, but says somehting about a musical masterpiece, i dunno.

[Bad Blood]

Yeah, I saw that this morning. I posted it earlier :p

[Untitled]

Oh yeah, so you did.

[plaidbassbilly]

It's up!

When I read that I was like

[Independent_CA]

This is obviously just Mark's way of messing with a bunch of teenagers. He's probably laughing himself to death as we speak.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

So, i got the greatest hits yesterday, it's pretty cool.

[10571z]

This is obviously just Mark's way of messing with a bunch of teenagers. He's probably laughing himself to death as we speak.

i dont think plussfourtyfour is run by plus44 .... as they already have a website

[chumpradio]

i dont think plussfourtyfour is run by plus44 .... as they already have a website
And that's why the AVA site always mentions it as the official website for Plus-44?

:eek: Unless it's some big conspiracy, and Tom has made a fake P44 website and is tricking all of the P44 fans. :eek:

[Bad Blood]

Haha, that'd be quite amusing.

Unlikely, but amusing.

[10571z]

wow 2 websites wierd...

[Bad Blood]

Most bands have two websites, or more.

Unofficial and Official.

[10571z]

yeh but i mean official.... arent they both official???

[dancetomdance182]

I don't think they would make 2 websites.

[Untitled]

The official one is the one whore by AVA, they wouldnt whore an unofficial one.

[dancetomdance182]

The official one is the one whore by AVA, they wouldnt whore an unofficial one.

Your probably correct. Both the sites look like crap though. I know it's incomplete, but even the official one looks so unprofessional.

[Get Fighted]

Not to be a smart arse (despite my retardedness) but shouldnt this thread be called
It's Time For An Enema! (The Official Blink/Boxcar Racer/Plus44/AVA/Transplants thread)

[HitHardDrums55]

yes, travis is in the transplants so definately...but then we could also add old aquabats to the name as well and it would be super long but definately

[Pazz]

No one likes the Transplants.

[Get Fighted]

No one likes the Transplants.

Fair point.

[Bad Blood]

The Transplants aren't that bad.





Actually, yes they are.

[Mute Print]

I don't mind the Transplants. I'm not sure why I bought their newest CD though.

[Pazz]

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I like Transplants, their first album has good songs.

We should make a thread where we send each other tabs. Kinda like the AIM thread.

Don't steal.

[HitHardDrums55]

I like Transplants, their first album has good songs.

i actually like both the transplants albums, but im not picky at all about the music i listen to i like a little bit of everything except country music...there is one song that i dont mind thats country though...but its still a stupid song...

[Bad Blood]

What's wrong with country music?

[Surtr]

What's wrong with country music?
Nothing really..

[Ross]

I like Transplants, their first album has good songs.

That's the only album I have by them, and I like it also. Never saw anything wrong with the transplants.

[DJ Ducksauce]

What's wrong with country music?
If you're talking about mainstream country, then there's tons.

[HitHardDrums55]

almost all country music sounds exactly the same to me...especially the guy singers, the girl singers are a little better...not as hick-ish i guess...that australian guy isnt bad though i forget his name..but since i finished drivers ed last year, because my driving instructor always played music but it was always country music i learned to tolerate it

[Surtr]

OFF TOPIC!

I don't mind The Transplants..I like a few songs, but not a whole lot.

I liked the other song better, on the other video. I think the trailer?..it has some good palm muting.

[Excursions]

No one likes the Transplants.

Kelly Clarkson>The Transplants>Blink 182.

The end.

[DJ Ducksauce]

Kelly Clarkson>The Transplants>Blink 182.

The end.
I agree with %50 of that.

[Surtr]

Kelly Clarkson is actually kinda good..But she's not ahead of Blink.

[sam_182]

indeed. Transplants first album was fairly good, as for the second....CRAP.


Country music is ok..i prefer 50s/60s American folk like early Dylan and Woody Guthrie. anyway..

I think the guy/girl that said this should be called the (blink/BCR/AVA....) thread is kinda right because we do talk about all those other bands just as much as blink..

[Pazz]

I think the guy/girl that said this should be called the (blink/BCR/AVA....) thread is kinda right because we do talk about all those other bands just as much as blink..

Ahem, thank you. We don't need 2 threads talking about plus 44, it doesn't make sense.

[HitHardDrums55]

especially when +44 has only released one song...unless its in the lyrics/songwriting forum, one song alone doesnt deserve its own thread

[10571z]

yes i think the new thread title is appropriate...

[Fire Away]

They should get their own thread once the albums are released

[Bad Blood]

No, they shouldn't because they're side projects of Blink. It's been fine how it is, there's no point going to separate threads to talk about Tom Delonge and Mark Hoppus, it wouldn't be right.

Besides, this thread would die anyway.

[poprocks&coke]

Roight, this might have been said before but oh well... when does AVA's album come out?

Technically they aren't side projects of blink. Blink is over, so Plus44 would be Mark's main band and AVA would be Tom's main band. But, I agree with you. Those two bands should be in this thread.

[Bad Blood]

You knew what I meant though.

[Untitled]

But, its been said by the band, once they done touring Blink182 are going back in the studio, or something. recording a couple of tracks then releasing a demo, rare songs, and them new songs cd.

Omg double post.

Yeah it got said not too long ago. :D

[dancetomdance182]

Are you guys serious? I thought blink was done forever. Good news!

[yourstruly]

None of us have any idea how long AVA/Plus 44 are gonna last. We also have no idea whether or not Tom Delonge is going to be killed by a speeding bus tomorrow.

this is true..Thats the worst thing about this thread we always guess what is gunna happen...

[Angry Balled Fists!]

I hope AVA will be better than Plus 44

What?

Haha, I see.

I'm gonna' beat you.

no i agree that no1 knows anything

[dancetomdance182]

Didn't Tom say that he wanted to end his career with AVA?

[chumpradio]

I don't know, but next week in Kerrang, I know that AVA is the main article.
It says "World Exclusive! Angels and Airwaves, the rebirth of Tom Delonge".

May give us some more information regarding release dates.

I hate how nothing gets revealed here in America. Everything about blink gets revealed in Kerrang.

[Surtr]

What? You think Tom is going to get hit by a speeding bus?
Maybe the reason he thinks it...is because he's the one planning it! :eek: He's the one behind the assination of Tom! And I think your helping him, your just acting!

I want this Plus44 site up
That's just code for you can't wait much longer, you think the plan must go on before anyone finds out! WELL I GOT YOU! HA! CAUGHT YA RED HANDED!

Damn... >_>


And about Tom ending his career with AVA: He will probably go to Blink, record the songs etc, but not ending AVA, so when Blink have finished what they've done Tom can carry on with AVA.

[dancetomdance182]

I remember in a interview, Tom mentioned a book he read called Ruled by Secrecy or something like that. It's really awkward book.

[16 Nipples]

Why what is it about?

[dancetomdance182]

Why what is it about?

Don't you know those secret societies? Freemasons, Skulls and Bones etc.. The book is about those, the government, conspiracies, and so on.
You know Tom is always interested in the government and conspirarcies especially the ones related with aliens. ("We all know conspiracies are dumb"-Aliens Exist)

[Surtr]

I'm reading a book on Freemasonary right now. It's actually not a bad read if your into that kinda stuff.

[dancetomdance182]

If you actually think about these secret societies it's actually scary. The whole world is controlled by these groups.

Well back to blink...
I just saw the Dammit, making of the video, and Mark said that 182 was added on because he was overweight and his doctor said his ideal weight should be 182. Therefore, Mark had 182 written all over his post its and stuff to remind him. I never heard that "182" theory before it was pretty interesting.

Hmm..100% fake, but yes, slightly intresting :p

[Fish]

Hmm..100% fake, but yes, slightly intresting :p

whats the real reason?

[sam_182]

No-one knows.

theres many a theory

[HitHardDrums55]

its just a random number because Blink was already a band when they first started...i read in a tom delonge interview in some magazine i picked up waiting to get my haircut or something one day...he said that mark just makes up **** when people ask that question, but Blink called them and they would sue if blink182 (who was also Blink at the time) didn't change the name to something else, so they just added the 182, i guess it just sounded good

[dancetomdance182]

Yeah added 182 because the number 182 was in Mark's head all the time because he needed to reach that weight. (I'm guessing)

[Pazz]

Yeah added 182 because the number 182 was in Mark's head all the time because he needed to reach that weight. (I'm guessing)

I'll get Butler in here tomorrow to tell you the real reason, or a coincident reason.

[HitHardDrums55]

most reasons u hear for 182, even if its straight from the mouth of hoppus, they arent true

[Pazz]

Butler found this way out and it hasn't been told to people. It's pretty cool how it works, but I'm not entirely sure how it works.

[10571z]

its that birthday one....you add it together.... and crap... it must be true i swear whats the chances of it being that exact number... also you but the number in order of where they stand on stage

[Pazz]

I figured it out!

Mark - 3/15/1972
Scott - 5/23/1978
Tom - 12/13/1975

3+1+5+7+2+1+9=28 2+8=10 1+0= 1
5+2+3+7+8+1+9=35 3+5= 8
1+2+1+3+7+5+1+9=29 2+9 = 11 1+1= 2

Just a few calculations. Coincidence? I think not.

[why-was-i-banned]

I figured it out!

Mark - 3/15/1972
Scott - 5/23/1978
Tom - 12/13/1975

3+1+5+7+2+1+9=28 2+8=10 1+0= 1
5+2+3+7+8+1+9=35 3+5= 8
1+2+1+3+7+5+1+9=29 2+9 = 11 1+1= 2

Just a few calculations. Coincidence? I think not.

you have way too much time spare dude lol.

[HitHardDrums55]

that is crazy, but could be true...wow...

[Angry Balled Fists!]

Yes, it is a conicidence, that's such a retarded way to work it out, it's noway true imo.

[chumpradio]

I figured it out!

Mark - 3/15/1972
Scott - 5/23/1978
Tom - 12/13/1975

Just a few calculations. Coincidence? I think not.
I read it on a website ages ago. I also don't believe it.

[dancetomdance182]

Yeah, I've heard of that "theory" a long time ago. Mark's weight thing was something that I've never heard of before. There are many 182 theories, but it was just a random number. Or was it...

[Untitled]

Yeah, i posted that equation like, the first begining of the oringonl thread.

[chumpradio]

Yeah, i posted that equation like, the first begining of the oringonl thread.
I can actually remember you posting it, and us dismissing at as obviously a coincidence.

[Surtr]

It's just a random number that sounded good. There's nothing really behind it at all. They could be Blink Seven Oh Nine..Just as much as Blink 182.

[Fish]

oh, I thought there was a meaning behind it, oh well.

[dancetomdance182]

I can actually remember you posting it, and us dismissing at as obviously a coincidence.

There was an interview where someone told Mark about the number theory. Mark laughed and called Tom over. They thought it was amazing, but just said its a coincidence.

[everywhere,allthetime]

i heard it 182 was the number of times the F- bomb is dropped in Scarface

[Pazz]

i heard it 182 was the number of times the F- bomb is dropped in Scarface

Rumor.

[everywhere,allthetime]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
it propbably is.
Well probably never know where 182 came from. When Tom or Mark is asked thell probably bull**** the orgin. I think there clever as hell for doing that

[Pazz]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They will take that secret to the grave. I doubt they told Travis.

[yourstruly]

I doubt Travis cares. If Scott Raynor says they just pulled 182 outta there ***, i believe him. Which he did.

[plaidbassbilly]

The Blink book 'Tales From Beneath Your Mom' has a list of possible meanings for the 182. I think I said it in the old thread somewhere.

[monkey on a bass]

I dont care were they got it from it sounds cool

[10571z]

I figured it out!

Mark - 3/15/1972
Scott - 5/23/1978
Tom - 12/13/1975

3+1+5+7+2+1+9=28 2+8=10 1+0= 1
5+2+3+7+8+1+9=35 3+5= 8
1+2+1+3+7+5+1+9=29 2+9 = 11 1+1= 2

Just a few calculations. Coincidence? I think not.

yep thats the one...

[Bad Blood]

I don't think they would be clever enough to do something like that just for a number on the end of their band's name.

[10571z]

I don't think they would be clever enough to do something like that just for a number on the end of their band's name.

but you have to think what is the chances of that working.... theres like so many different numbers it could have equaled. i dunno it just seems a bit to convicing to me.

[Bad Blood]

I still doubt it. It took a lot to get the numbers down to that stage and I don't think they really could be arsed/have the brains to think that up for just one number.

[These_Green_Eyes]

I was flipping threw the channels and 'Meet The Barkers' was on MTV. So, I watched it. It was pretty cool, they showed a little of Blink playing live.

[Bad Blood]

Travis is nothing like you'd expect him to be.

He's a bit of a phag.

[dancetomdance182]

That show is really really really boring.

[the_uber_penguin]

I've heard they put out many theories as to what 182 meant just for fun, none of them being true:

Marks ideal weight in pounds;
The LA police code for homicide (actually 187);
Number of times Al Pacino says f-ck in Scarface.

[FOB Rule]

[B]

No one knows yet. They haven't really released any material except for a tiny bit in an interview.

Yeah, nothing released yet..But I'm thinkin' fairly soon you'll see somthin. My mind has the date January 16th, 2006 stuck in my mind when I think of AVA..Maybe then?

Yeah, nothing released yet..But I'm thinkin' fairly soon you'll see somthin. My mind has the date January 16th, 2006 stuck in my mind when I think of AVA..Maybe then?If you're right, you can have my last can of 'Props':rolleyes: :smash: :wave:

[These_Green_Eyes]

That show is really really really boring.

Yeah it is. I just thought it was cool they showed some Blink.

His wife's personality is really really annoying it pisses me off.

[10571z]

mmm she wasnt that bad. But it was sorta a crappy show but still was good if u were bored

I only got to see it once because I don't have Foxtel.

And that was enough.

Ive been told its 9, of an american.

[dancetomdance182]

Ive been told its 9, of an american.

What are you talking about??:confused:

[redrumsixsix6]

uhhh basic cable in america is like at elast 30 channles......unless ur talking about free tv which when u use an attena to pick up crappy reception of some channles.........like fox, and only other network type channels.

meet the barkers did kinda suck altho travis's wife is pretty hot. Oh, and who ever said his wife was annoying, looks like travis thinks the same accordingto all the preview comercials for the show.

i saw some of the first season. I will only watch it again if im really bored

[HitHardDrums55]

they basically made the show for the kids who think travis barker is a god

[dancetomdance182]

Yeah, MTV is a cable network that shows Meet the Barkers. Basic cable has around 25 channels. Free/Antenna TV has around 13 (if you get good reception). Of course Travis's wife is hot. She used to be in playboy.

[dancetomdance182]

I don't think it's worth even seeing it this year. It probably shows him going on tour with the Transplants.

I think Mark's vocals add a soothing element to Tom's style of singing. I don't think I could even handle Tom singing every Blink song.

Does anybody know if AGAP is going to be released?

[FauxApathy]

I live in america, and I've never gotten anywhere close to 13 channels with standard tv. Maybe 5-9.

As much as i want Boxcar Racer back i have to say you are an idiot.

Travis is nothing like you'd expect him to be.

He's a bit of a phag.

He looks like the biggest prick ever now. His old dreadlocks were cool, although his tattoos never helped.

[16 Nipples]

Even though Boxcar sounded great, it did kinda ruin Blink. I mean if Tom never did it, I bet Blink would still be around now

[Get Fighted]

Even though Boxcar sounded great, it did kinda ruin Blink. I mean if Tom never did it, I bet Blink would still be around now

It was worth it.

[redrumsixsix6]

It was worth it.


i disagree! I think that blink was and still would be better than boxcar, although i havent heard all of boxcar's songs, what i have heard doesnt flow like blink songs. Oh, and that song i think its called my first punk song? by box car racer, i dont like that at all.

What i did like about boxcar was how tom did take a more serious approach to writning lyrics and even the music had a heavier and more serious feel. I liked "feel so" by box car but thats about it. There are alot of more serious blink songs on s/t that i prefer over box car racer.....like stockholm syndrom, heres your letter, even im lost without you is a nice mellow song. I have other bands to go to besides blink or box car if i want heavier music


(sorry if there are aot of typos, but im on a school library comp and this keyboard is all broken.)

[redrumsixsix6]

o and if anyone needs a tab site..... http://ultimate-guitar.com not as good as mx was but its close

Listen to "Letters to god" and "Sorrow" and "Elavator" infact simply listen to the whole album, I feel so is my new favourite song.

[Bad Blood]

There Is is the best song Tom Delonge has ever written.

[Get Fighted]

/Puts it on.

[Loserkid]

Still dosnt compare to any of Marks songs.

[Bad Blood]

It does.

It's probably the only one, though.

[Get Fighted]

Still dosnt compare to any of Marks songs.

Wrong.

[Loserkid]

Wrong.
No im not, Mark Hoppus is one of the best lyric writers in pop-punk me thinks. tom has nothing on him.

[B]

Haha Butler you're so biased. There is no way Mark is one of the best lyricists in pop-punk right now. He's good, but he's not even a contender for the best.

[Angry Balled Fists!]

hahaha, i much prefer Tom to Mark.

[Surtr]

For me it switches between my moods. I'd say Mark is probably my favorite of the two most of the time though.

[Pazz]

I perfer Mark over Tom. Tom is still pretty good.

[Bad Blood]

Are we talking about song writing or vocals?

[Dead Star]

In general I think.

If so I prefer Mark.

[Loserkid]

Haha Butler you're so biased. There is no way Mark is one of the best lyricists in pop-punk right now. He's good, but he's not even a contender for the best.
IM NOT BIASED :upset:

But i think marsk tonnes better at vocals AND lyrics.

He might not be the best pop-punk song writer, but vocalist....

[Virus278]

Still dosnt compare to any of Marks songs.

what mark songs are u talking about? - he didn't really have a big part in the s/t album and a lot of blink songs before then werent that deep. He also really didn't sing a lot in cheshire cat and dude ranch which are a couple of really great albums. I know he did sing some songs in each of those albums like wasting time, josie, dammit, stockholm sydrome, etc. but still Tom sings a lot of really, really great songs in all of those albums and in boxcar racer.

[redrumsixsix6]

I usually prefer tom just cause he has more of that pop-punk voice than mark does. Altho i must admitt, tom is out of his prime in singing or it atleast seems like that! I have live videos of blink and toms vocals were much better live than the more recent ones.....it sounds like he tries and make them sound different than he used to like make them sound more punky? i have no idea but all i know is that his vocal performance is much better in live at sydney than on lets say on pretty much any feeling this video live.

Oh, and ppl are always like mark brings the softer aspect of vocals, but stockholm syndrom is prob one of their heavier songs! And marks vocals in that song get heavy in the bridge part

[Bad Blood]

Mark's voice sounds a lot more mature than Tom's.

But Tom does have the punkier/more raw voice.

[FauxApathy]

my opinion, I love mark, but have always thought tom and his writing to be crap. I like mark so much more, he's probably the only reason I like blink at all is his voice. If he never sang, but they had the same songs, I would hate blink. I can't stand tom's singing at all.

[These_Green_Eyes]

"Feeling This" live is terrible vocally for both Mark and Tom in my opinion. "Feeling This" is definitley a studio song.

[redrumsixsix6]

very true

[Pazz]

There are two times i have seen videos live of Tom singing and he sounded really crappy. There is the video of him at the Teen Choice Awards and his voice sounds terrible. There is also the video of him on Conan O'Brien and their singing First Date and it sounded god-awful.

[Excursions]

"Feeling This" live is terrible vocally for both Mark and Tom in my opinion. "Feeling This" is definitley a studio song.

A band should be able to play a song live almost as good as it is recorded.

[everywhere,allthetime]

i love blink to death but they always sound off tempo

[Untitled]

The couple of times i saw them they sounded ok. But i wouldnt blame them if they went off tempo, travis showing off properly does it for them.

[everywhere,allthetime]

thats very true about Travis. He does kinda ruin the bands live performance

[everywhere,allthetime]

sorry to spam

[These_Green_Eyes]

They do a pretty good job musically when they play "Feeling This" live, but the vocals are not as good. Tom tries to hard to sing during that song live.

[Untitled]

I have videos of blink live from a while back, tom sound alright, not great. But in recent years he's got proper lazy, and sounds crap.

[dancetomdance182]

Your wrong. Before Mark used to sing a lot more than Tom. Even in live shows. When TOYPAJ and the S/T came out, Tom began singing more because on records his voice did get better.

[dancetomdance182]

A band should be able to play a song live almost as good as it is recorded.

Well, not always. Blink changes their song around which makes them an awesome band live. They usually sing some songs differently.

[Untitled]

Usualy changing the lyrics to sex jokes.

and Mark also wrote songs like Adams song, and Stay Together. Which are proberly more deap and meaningfull then anything toms wrote about.

[16 Nipples]

If Blink was missing either one of Mark or Tom's writing and vocals they would never be where they are today. They need them both. I dont think its fair to compare Mark or Tom in Blink, it'll be interesting when we hear Plus 44 and AVA

[These_Green_Eyes]

Usualy changing the lyrics to sex jokes.

and Mark also wrote songs like Adams song, and Stay Together. Which are proberly more deap and meaningfull then anything toms wrote about.

I thought Tom wrote "Stay Together For The Kids". It's about his family falling apart. He says so himself in "Urethra Chronicles II".

2) Learn to bypass the swear filter.
3) Use some grammar correctly

:chug:

[dancetomdance182]

Actually, usually when one of the blink members sing a song they usually wrote it.(ex: Mark sings the Rock Show...he wrote it. Tom sings Aliens Exist he wrote it and so on..) Also, Mark's parents were divorced so it would make sense that Mark wrote the song.

[plaidbassbilly]

but watch uretha chronicles tom says clearly "i rote this song about just 1 day when my family broke, my family broke on this one day when i was 18 years old in my drive way" or somthing like that... Somtimes when tom cant sing bits good hill get mark to sing it..

tom's parents are divorced as well...they could have easily worked together on writing this song, because they can relate when it comes to families breaking apart...and they split vocals so maybe tom wrote the chorus and mark wrote the verses? who knows...

[plaidbassbilly]

Um, another thing I just remembered, in '04 when I saw Blink, Tom had to help Mark sing the bridge in Feeling This. Obviously in the studio they could overdub (?) his voice or whatever. Definitely a studio song.

[B]

IM NOT BIASED :upset:

But i think marsk tonnes better at vocals AND lyrics.

He might not be the best pop-punk song writer, but vocalist....
He isn't the best vocalist either. He's better than Tom for both though.

I mostly meant biased towards saying Mark's the best, because you love Blink so much.

Tom is an awful live singer.

[chumpradio]

Tom is an awful live singer.
True. I've seen them twice, seen countless videos, and heard countless bootlegs. I have never heard him sound good live.
He kind of mumbles his lyrics, as if trying to sound younger or something.

[MaxWasHere]

The article is boring but on the second page at the bottom they talk about the songs and what they sound like and that's exciting.

I don't know if I've ever heard a band describe their own music song by song. He's so excited. I guess everyone's excited about their music though.
