Everyone complaining about the lyrics videos, but no one saying: ''Hey! Thanks for uploading the album for free on KZbin so I don't move my lazy ass from my chair and buy it at the music store, thank you so much guys!''.

[@jeanclaude2427]

Hey! Thanks for upooading the album for free on KZbin so I don't move my lazy ass from my chair and buy it a the music store, thank you so much guys!

[@theangrygamer2586]

:)

[@jacobmendiola5947]

Thank you Matt Skiba! The last few years with you were surprisingly good. You kept blink 182 relevant and for that we blink fans thank you.

[@CaoCao2025]

Thanks Matt, without You i giving up on Blink a long time ago

[@davidnissim589]

Mark wrote this about his son. So beautiful.

[@eedfeldt4u]

Fun fact: Travis' daughter Alabama plays the piano parts on this track

[@1Capnjazz]

+Gigills who the fuck are the Bakers ?

[@DV-zv4ox]

Meet the Bakers - they play music and also make a mean apple strudel

[@MrMrfatman5]

+Gigills Barkers**

[@DebtlessKegan]

There is no piano on this track

[@punkskates2469]

+Al Thank you that was annoying me ha

[@Rizz3n]

Why the fuck are people complaining about the video? It's just a damn lyric video.

[@96TeenSpirit]

Because it's really amateur. It's out of place with the others. It doesn't effect the song its just weird... and the guys that made were probably paid some good money for something anyone could have made on Movie Maker

[@lonerangerdj]

amen

[@TheBronzeGamer14]

+Joel Wright that is the most stupid sentence I have ever read.

[@the_offliner]

affect*

[@SurprizE98]

Real blink182 fans don't complain about the videos they produce.They only care about their music.

[@dylankennedy6389]

I would want to listen to this song, laying in the grass looking up at a clear blue sky. Picturing the lyrics scrolling passed in the sky, just like this video implies.

[@eugeniabochehin]

ok, I'm starting to like this lyric video after this. makes sense.

[@gokulkrish643]

+Camilo Perna gross

[@realeyesrealisereallies6398]

+Camilo Perna lol

[@dylankennedy6389]

***** Sorry i'd rather a dog, or maybe, just maybe, a mexican pirate.

[@brianameagher2108]

Dylan Kennedy magical, isn't it? 😂

[@Supmikecheck]

Hearing they wrote this song about their kids growing up and leaving the house rips my heart out in the best way possible

[@anggeraprasetyo5616]

Home is such a lonely place without you SKIBA! Thank you for helping mark and travis at their hard times.

[@nsudemon1]

This is one of the best songs they've ever written.

[@KevinJones-dc7ro]

I can't believe this song is not bigger than it is!!! Omg it is so beautiful!!! I love Matt Shiba his voice is so amazing!!!

[@DustinPoynterVideos]

According to Feldman in an interview, this is a song that Mark wrote about his son Jack when he leaves home for college/a career in the future, and how it scares him. And also, I was watching Blink's Huffington Post interview and Mark said that "Home is such a lonely place without you" was his favorite lyric, and I had been wondering why until now. Knowing all of this just really opened my eyes to this song and made it a million times better. I'm getting chills just listening to it back again. I think they should do a track-by-track in depth interview and explain some of these songs in further detail because I think there's a lot of things like this that fans might miss.

[@182punkbunny]

makes so much more sense now

[@DustinPoynterVideos]

182punkbunny Yep. This was one of the tracks on the record that just wasn't doing anything for me after the first couple of listens. But the more I looked into it and then found that stuff out, it's now one of my favorites. Top 3. I think more people need to do that with this record instead of just bashing it, because if you take a close look at some of these lyrics, they're very introspective and heartfelt. At the very least, any hardcore Tom DeLonge/Blink fan could appreciate the thought that they put into this.

[@fearguyQ]

I want to thank you writing this comment. this song and comment is what unlocked the album for me. before re-listening to this song earlier today and finding this comment I thought this album was alright. but then your comment showed me the extra layers of meaning in this song and the track by track interview and now my mind is blown by the whole album and this is my favorite song. Thanks

[@DustinPoynterVideos]

fearguyQ That's amazing. And yeah I was one of those people who was thinking the record was just pretty good after the first couple of listens, because I have to let the songs sink in first. Now it's undoubtedly my favorite record of the year. There are so many dark and heartfelt themes in these songs that I think might've been really lacking on the last album.

[@fearguyQ]

+DustinPoynter I totally agree! outside of Ghost on the Dance Floor there wasn't a whole lot of depth. this one is definitely better.

[@sasukesarutobi7127]

Mark's voice always calms me down and makes me happy. I love this song.

[@damengarcia6727]

Lost my Dad in February, this song randomly played today and I am definitely thinking of him. May God be with you pops. Home is a lonely place without you. 😔

[@thefray123]

Anyone here with a parent who has passed away? This song makes the most sense to me that way. Home is such a lonely place without ya Dad!!!!

[@daisyc4043]

Not a parent but one of my buddies from school just passed about a week ago.

[@Ryno023]

Same but not my parent my dog it's not the same at home.

[@Julio3324]

Well, the meaning, according to the producer, is the opposite. It's about Mark's seven year old son. He's not dead though.

[@roopa1824]

Seven? :D dude his kid is 14

[@SurprizE98]

+roopa182 damn that's my age.

[@NEM1298]

Travis' daughter plays the piano parts on this song. And Mark said this song was inspired by imagining when his kid goes to college. It's crazy because this song means something totally different in my mind. Such is the beauty of music i guess.

[@JT-hc1ok]

holy shit they did it again the fucking feels!

[@a-aron4696]

ikr makes me emotional about absolutly nothing, just emotional. period.

[@dagakoify]

+A-A Ron that is the power of the feels. All about the feel train now.

[@theejcookproductions]

BEST. BLINK. 182. SONG. EVER. ..on the album, California.

[@musicman6555]

That'll have to be Cynical or No Future, but this is still very high up there

[@rfgalvao03]

I liked how all the others lyric videos are full of colors and motion and this one is pretty simple! I think it fits the song!

[@Scrubber89]

My Cat of 17 years died last week, this will forever be his song 💔

[@rudymardocoy5702]

I pray for your battle with cancer Mark , hope youll get well very soon home is such a lonely place without you

[@dcmercer1444]

listen kids, it does t matter if Tom went off to do angels and airwaves, or as I like to calm them "blink182 iiinnn spaaaccee". what matters is that Mark and Travis still make music, and so does Tom. it doesn't fucking matter that Tom isn't in the band anymore. Tom is great in his own right, but so are Mark and Travis. Matt Skiba is amazingly talented too. just because he's not a founding member of blink means nothing. he's a punk at heart like the rest of them and just like many of us fans/listeners. this album might not be the angst-fueled "enema of the state" we half way expected, but new fan or long time fan, regardless I'd hope we can all agree that the music is good. blink isnt dead without tom. just...different.

[@Sourmouth]

DCMercer hey so quike question literally listened to blink for the first time not even a yr ago literally one of my favorite groups ever lol anyway my question was which one was Tom, was he a lead singer and wow if he was cause dude was awesome but that means dude on this tracks a replacement who if I don’t say so my self is prolly jus as good like how are they not in the rock n roll hall of fame every single one of em is talented af!!

[@punkyagogo]

What's sad is that Matt is a good singer but not a strong guitarist, so we may never see certain Blink songs covered because he simply can't play them. Even when they play this song live, he just strums the chords. Also, him and Mark sing in similar ranges so that contrast in vocals is now lost. Tom's melodically catchy riffs and higher pitched voice juxtaposed with Travis's drum style and Mark's rhythmic bass is what made Blink stand out among the countless see of other pop punk artists. Now, Blink just sounds like any other pop punk band.

[@punkyagogo]

@@Sourmouth Tom is the guy on the older tracks with the nasally, scratchy voice lol

[@florican6435]

Travis isn't a founding member either lmao everyone acts all "blink isn't the same anymore" when they weren't even around when those older albums came out

[@syedzaidi5259]

Sometimes it makes me incredibly happy that a group from the dearest part of my childhood can still be making music that can touch the most sacred parts of my life when I'm struggling to maintain what adults call a "normal" life. I'm just paces away from a breakdown but Bilnk makes it so much familiar.

[@skeletonz00387]

Lol! So I met this girl on Friday and we both like each other , and right now this song applies SOO much to my feelings for her, home is such a lonely place without her. And I'm only 12, but it creates great emotion. Great song guys!! U rock

[@thealbions3873]

Coming back to this gem today and praying for Mark 🙏🏻💙 fingers crossed for a full recovery from the man who has never let us down and gave us so much hope and inspiration, you’ve got this Mark and we’ve got your back 💙

[@GrayWoIf]

Of course home is such a lonely place Mark keeps refusing to go home!

[@KevenThePuma]

You win. All of it.

[@kilogreene8738]

you literally made my day with this! lol for years he's said he's never coming home hahaha

[@renemv2679]

Which song was this? i cant remember at the moment haha

[@blinkyoureyes1400]

Shut Up XP

[@davidjustin4435]

hahahahahahahha

[@jennyaddams9624]

THIS ALBUM = WORK OF ART. I AM GRATEFUL FOR THIS GREAT WORK GUYS. EVERY SONG IS PERFECT. CONGRATULATIONS FOR YOU BECAUSE OF... EVERYTHING.

[@TheSupercaster]

I am moving out to university in a few weeks and this song really makes me think of how big a deal it is to move out and become independent

[@satshreeshrestha5975]

Separations are the hardest moment, but we gotta keep moving on.. this song just triggered so much of my memories ... thank you Matt, Mark and Travis :') Blink-182 always makes me happy :'')

[@coffeeandfork]

blink-182 is my all time favorite band, and Im just gonna ignore all the stupid haters and say that this is probably my new favorite blink album, with untitled as a close second. This song is beautiful by the way. It has this really nice indie sort of sound to it. Anyone heard of the game Life is Strange? I could totally imagine this song being in that game. Blink's best ballad, hands down. It blows I Miss You out of the water!!

[@valentinarmenta4982]

Self titled is always first your dumb

[@benjitheaffiliate9656]

+valentin armenta opinions are such wonderful things

[@hankie1119]

That's actually such a cool idea! I can definitely picture it on Life is Strange, now I like the song even more ❤

[@lunafreeman2096]

Absolutely obsessed with this song

[@sebastienr7852]

Thank you so much Matt for being a full member of the blink 182 family

[@zimshivu9527]

This song makes me nostalgic Love you blink 182 for lyf

[@s2thehammer]

my grandpa passed away 2 days after this album dropped. this song instantly hit home. he battled with a congestive heart and kidney disease for over 2 years. "don't wait for me" reminds me of his 6 kids, my uncle who passed, 18 grandchildren, 8 great grandchildren who went to the hospice and waited while he left the world. it's contradicting, but he waited. I love this song. and home, our family, is spinning like the moon in outer space without him.

[@jazmineaya113]

💕stay strong

[@rafaled63]

Steve Shellhammer grandma passed 7 days after this album came out..hit me in the feels. I feel you man. don't worry he's watching over you.

[@FrankReynolds182]

I heard this on the radio today. If it gets out to enough people, it feels like the kind of song that could go really big. I'm not overly interested in the popularity of my favorite band, but it'd be nice to see them get the attention they deserve once more in their career.

[@gnarlykng7986]

This fills the void in my soul when you left, and I will forever miss you. Brings me back to being a kid buying Enema of the State behind my parent's back! Thanks Blink for always finding a way to shine a light on me in the abyss.

[@katovece]

this song is amazing.

[@bloojkl4520]

Finally an acoustic-like blink song. This makes me feel some type of way. I love you guys.

[@BegininWondermedia]

I've been Blink-deprived for so long, so this new album is great, but Tom was clearly a punk-rock lyric-writing master and "I miss you".

[@aarr2002]

listening the intro and suddenly i hear tom voice sing "where are you" in I Miss You 😢

[@GVIRR]

😭😭😭

[@a-aron4696]

i just hit replay and listened closely and almost cried XD Tom, i support whatever you choose to do with your life, but I miss you!!!

[@jacob-vt9bd]

i dont hear it

[@aarr2002]

+Jacob Stark just imagine it

[@a-aron4696]

exactly lol

[@justinkendell3320]

best song on the album. every song is good, but damn this just hits it home. Fuck yeah blink!

[@mattpickles89]

Mark wrote it about when the day comes that his son leaves home. Feldy said it in an interview.

[@winstonoboogie9186]

I'm sure Feldy said that but he would never say it was about Tom if it was. The references to outer space and the universe, things that Tom is obsessed with leads me to think it's about him.

[@mucaslatos]

+Jeff Anderson Don't talk shit man, just don't

[@TheCrowdedMainland]

he pretty much said San Diego is about Tom tho

[@mucaslatos]

+Jace Peterson The only song about Tom on the record is Cynical. The rest is crazy conspiration theory. LOL

[@samuelpaddock98]

+Lucas Matos No, Sand Diego is literally about Tom, that's where he lived while Travis and Mark live in LA, he lost his friend to San Diego, they listened to the Cure, pretty sure that's Tom.

[@huizizeng4671]

I am from Asia and I didn't know this band before but I am falling in love with their new album!

[@christianthomas8569]

Best song of the album!

[@ashlynlowenthal6784]

THIS IS MY FIRST FAV SONG IN THIS ALBUM ! SO BEAUTIFUL AND COOL. THIS ALBUM IS GREAT !

[@the_laybacks]

My girlfriend and best friend are going away for college this year...I doubt I'll ever listen to this song without crying.

[@nano7586]

I know those feels... they will pass away, don't worry. Think about what is and not about what would be.

[@timmorino4005]

[@rasyid2849]

my favorite song from the album

[@jorgeguadarrama5308]

What a powerful song! That bridge brings tears to my eyes. Thank you Blink for such a melancholic and catchy melody!

[@tree82]

Its been 1 year since this came out. Happy 182nd day of the year.(ayy im posting this on every vid)

[@EvilSpyro]

This song is incredible, I find it very moving, daring to suggest it is my favorite Blink 182 song ever, probably because I have reproduced on several occasions since I first started listening to them so can heavily relate to the song. Thankfully I do not have a lonely home at the moment but guess I am going to be hit hard by empty nest syndrome when the day comes, due to the thought of it being caused by this song causing quite a bit of emotion for me.

[@judas6260]

This song always makes me cry. I don't know why...

[@dashpash]

My absolute favorite

[@spirit.desire]

this song goes out to my sis monica...luv u MJ

[@JuanLopez-xn7pq]

la mejor del album

[@Thawordiz]

Just heard it. I miss my daughter. She’s not living me at time . It’s been now almost a year with her not living at home. My wife and me fell into a wrong path. I was ale to get on my good ways but my wife is having trouble . She’s been dealing with some under lining mental issues and self medicated. I have tried to help her but refuses to accept help and reality. I am now force to choose. My daughter or my wife. My daughter can’t be around my wife due to her issues, it affects her. I’m lost and hearing this song brakes me down just remembering how a good life we all had. Married for 16 years and now things may come to an end. Sad song. Peace everyone.

[@hugs.from.the.polishcow_]

I feel very sorry for you. Hope things will get better soon.. Stay strong!

[@Elmancodelfc]

This song reminds me to "I Miss You" and "Boxing Day" great job dudes!
