Ricks' really right on this one. It's a sad song. It's about realising that you're losing someone you love because you aren't growing up like everyone around you. Realising that it's costing you something, but not quite ready to accept that you need to change.

Really got into this record and band when I was a 16. Then I got deep into “virtuoso” type guitar players and bands and fell into the whole “Tom DeLonge sucks” thing, and I relegated Blink to the category of “guilty pleasure.” Fast forward 20 years, and I haven’t listened to the virtuosos in almost as long because their music is so, so boring. But I’m sitting here humming these Blink 182 guitar parts before they even show up in the song. No one cares how “good” you are at your instrument. It’s all about what you make people feel. That’s what makes a song great, and what makes it stand the rest of time. Tom & Mark are absolutely fantastic!

Great comment dude. I was 14 when Enema came out. I championed it and all my peers at school loved it. By the time we were 16 they all got into the virtuoso type stuff and were hating on blink whilst I was still jamming hard on them. I never stopped and never bowed to the peer pressure. All that poop they were listening too has literally disappeared into the ether, whilst Enema still sounds as good today as it did in 1999. Literally a month or so ago Tom put out the latest Angels and Airwaves album and is still absolutely killing the melodies and hooks on pretty much every track. IMO blink are one of the greatest bands of all time, although I wish they called it a day after Tom left and renamed the band when they reformed with Skiba. The one thing that separated blink from all the others was the magic of Mark and Tom as no one else could replicate it. Without that formula they just became another pop punk band and have damaged thier legacy. Find me a better opener to any album in history than Dumpweed. I'll wait. 🤘

My thoughts exactly! I went through the same phase, where I listened (and played) to music only because it was hard and technical. But, being completely honest, I don't think that I could recall any of the songs from the virtuosos catalogue, whereas bands like Blink, or my first love, Linkin Park, I can recall in an instant.

@@isthatchrisk can’t disagree with you. As much of a fan of blink as I am, they are terrible and especially live. They were really good at writing melodies and Travis was good at getting Mark and Tom to expand on their writing style more, but their songs were very 2 dimensional in how they are written, where Finn’s production and mixing made it 3 dimensional and added character that makes the songs feel nostalgic.

@ghost mall I agree, Mark became a "good singer" and Tom always stayed... Tom. I like the contrast that they have, but it is most evident to me in Boxcar Racer's Elevator. Like after hearing a whole album of Tom's voice Mark comes in and it really is like "Oh, that's a contrast!" I always did like Enema though. I was a junior when it came out, so it was blasting out of the car with the windows down often... I will say that I hated the 2003 self titled album when it first dropped though. Ironically, it is my favorite blink album now I think. Dude Ranch still gives it a run though.

Blink 182 was always way more than most people gave them credit for. There was a lot of pop-punk/skater/slacker rock stuff happening in the late 90s but Blink 182 transcended the labels and the genres. Amazing music, lyrics, and vocals. One of the best American bands of all time. As important as The Doors. Not to mention they inspired generations (and generations to come) to pick up an instrument and jam.

Love when Rick breaks down blink. As simple as they may sound, or as easy as the chords might be to play, what and how blink makes a song, the full piece is really is a work of art. 3 underrated song writers along with Jerry Finn a very underrated producer. Great vid! Edit: side note, wanted to point out early in the video when Rick touches on the melody saying “that’s twinkle twinkle little star”. Very astute observation because a few years ago (although Mark wrote this specific song) when Tom Delonge was featured in Ernie Ball’s pursuit of tone documentary he said he wanted to make nursery rhymes on steroids, and this is a great recognition by Rick. Tom as well as Mark and Travis certainly succeeded in making brilliant, music selling millions on doing such in an underrated tremendous way.

Now they of course are no Clash, the best punk band ever but they are kids from Poway near where i grew up in Oceanside CA and that’s a whole different reality. They did this area i grew up in very proud. i was playing in bands in San Diego and think we even shared the bill with them one time back in the 90’s.

Now, more than two decades later, I can say they have a special place in my heart.

I don’t necessarily agree. His work was great on that album, but Honestly, any great Drummer that can work with Blink could play on that album and it still would’ve worked (it’d be Different, for sure, but still). I think the Reason for That album being Stratospheric was because Of Jerry Finn. He made them Sound so perfect as a band in their performances, helped get the Best guitar and Bass Tones and make them sound so rich and fat as hell; Made Travis Sound Bombastic as Fuck on that record. Listen to the Enema demos, especially Dumpweed, and compare it to the album. Massive leap in sound. He made Everyone sound so grand and great, and highlighted them (especially Travis) so well; Production Can Make a Huge difference for a song, especially if a band wants to get better Radio play. His overall Production and Collaboration with them was what set them over the moon and they worked with him for basically anything till he Passed. I don’t think they would’ve gotten as far with just Travis drumming and Minimal production. Not to mention strong label backing and Advertising too.

Blink-182 always makes me wanna cry. I don't quite understand why. Maybe it's because it was one of the first bands i would listen to, coming from my sister's stereo, and it takes me back. And like Rick said, they have that melancoly feel, that "deeper" sound unlike any other punkrock band. Also this band makes me feel sad because i think that at some point in history people won't feel what I felt with this band (or not even listen to it), and that crushes me. Strange feeling...does anybody feel that way about a band?

I’ve always had a soft spot for good punk. Right away you knew this band was different. For a punk band, the writing and the playing is second to none in my opinion. The melody and the interwoven vocals were captivating. You knew who the hell Travis Barker was by the end of track 2. This album is a masterpiece. This band is incredible, and criminally underrated. It’s punk you actually have to know how to play guitar to play along to. Cover to cover there’s never a dull moment. My personal favorite on this album, Dysentery Gary.

Realising now how much I always loved the bridge of this song. There's something curiously profound about it, contrasting with the verses that are light-hearted and read like something out of American Pie or Inbetweeners- and then there's this bridge that sums up how we, the listener, feel when we hear or observe somebody not acting their age- on the one hand it's amusing and cringeworthy, on the other hand there's a sadness to it. Something about it reminds me of 'Tonight Tonight' by Smashing Pumpkins

So glad to see this high up in the comments. This is a very important part of experiencing this song, whether you realize it or not. Would have loved to hear Rick's take on it.

@@SeanLuxforde Yeah, man. I feel the same. It's my personal pop-punk anthem or something. The band in general has a lot of good stuff in their catalog. They're good musicians and write good songs. I loved their music as a teenager and came back to it ten years later with a more open mind and I fell in love again. That music has a certain energy.

Pop punk is hated on for the reason of being popular. The music is fucking fantastic and appeals to most basic human musical wishes. The universal appeal though annoys people who like to seem superior to people who think having more eclectic tastes makes you a smarter human.

Blink 182 always brings me back to my teenage time. Their melodies are simple but catchy and make you feel happy. Also their songs were rather easy to learn when I first started playing guitar :D

Honestly the songs sound perfectly captures that feeling of not wanting to let go of your youth. And that desperate feeling of if only you could keep up the energy, keep plowing on at 100 miles an hour like you'll never get tired, that age and time won't catch up with you. Running from it because you know if you stop you may not start again, or you'll have to face the reality that those days are behind you now and that you don't know what to do with the future ahead.

When Blink 182 comes on the radio in 2022, you still know it’s Blink. No easy task for a band that many of us thought would land in the bargain bin after a few years like the hundreds of other ‘Green Day knockoffs’ or ‘Tony Hawk background bands’. Maybe they weren’t as simple of musicians as we thought.

@@c.miller Granted the lyrics of some (most) of their songs are juvenile, but they do represent teen angst in some ways, with the likes of "Anthem part 2", "First Date", "Going Away to College", and many more, and even address serious issues like with "Stay Together for the Kids" or "Adam's Song".
