[@3METALover3]

so here's your holiday. i hope you enjoyed this toyme, you gave it all away

[@KevGSniping]

Amazing

[@turboxor]

blink just means so much to me. i could care less if they tank a show. what i value most is what theyve given me. the feelings i experience while listening to their music is simply overwhelming and unmatched by other bands. thank you blink for doing what you do.

[@Ty13rlikespie]

this is the best proforance of this i cant tell you how much this song meenss to me

[@Aquarezz]

This video is the reason I started listening to Blink, it's awesome how Tom's voice still is even with a painkiller addiction ;)

[@TomVinceTheStranger]

No matter what yall say, no matter how they sound, It's still an honor to watch them

[@beshba]

there's so much emotion in their voices it's rad

[@drumArthur]

dude, just because some teenagers overrate him, it doesnt mean he is bad! you have to admit he is a GREAT drummer and , though he is not the best, he is at the top with all world's top drummers dont hate him because some kids overrate, he is a such a down to earth, humble and cool dude

[@nathanoguitar18]

i actually love this version

[@beshba]

if you wanna complain, they could just be like most bands, not even play a show just dub it over with play backs, but no they play it real, so fucking respect it

[@ToPoSiKoSiS]

Tom's voice

[@manieex]

well said. i think thier unique live performance is what differ them to other bands who performs exactly like we listens in their recording.

[@DaVeTheTaliban]

WOW JUST AMAZING REALLY !

[@WoONKann]

this is the best song of blink 182!!!

[@LucidPsychosis]

I really like Travis' drumming in this version.

[@Cambraia182]

''So here's your holiday, yo you''

[@mergatroidproduction]

I miss Blink. I wish they would do a come back.

[@10tonnedubstep]

@disturbed4everluke the emotion coming out through his voice youknowwwww

[@bocksc]

i made 200th vote for YES :D i love tom voice here :p mark sing like a bass but there wont be blink with 2xtom+travis, they 3 are magical :)

[@fil9slb]

perhaps they complete each other..they are great live...and the drums is a great thing to hearXD

[@p-tomrichi5244]

well, i prefer Tom's voice from 1998-2001 where he could sing like his record, listen to all the small things and tell me which period you prefer most. Maybe you are talking about albums, The first time tom sang this song, he's already changed his voice ( listen to pop disaster in 2002)

[@drumArthur]

@Svendiesel jealous.. he plays the way he wants to, he is the one who wrote the drum for that song. that shows how good of a drummer he is cause those things he did keeping up with the tempo are really hard dude. and if u didnt notice, Tom didnt play his guitar just like he recorded the song. If your not a musician, DO NOT talk about musician's things..

[@KielFender16]

it dont matter they were both designed by tom delonge its just the epiphone was the cheaper alternative it has all the same pick ups on it just made abroad ;)

[@Mi182Angel]

magnifica

[@gmstokes]

@SensesFail30 hell yes

[@quainhankid14]

Tom has a special voice !

[@LakeAmstrong]

A full este video una de sus mejores canciones =D

[@bruceleedisciple]

Because I saw them with others bands that I like. I saw them twice with NFG, the Green Day tour, Saw them at multiple warped tour days, and inland invasion. And Im pretty posative I saw them at the kroq weenie roast. Good enough answer for you?

[@RyanDudziak]

@disturbed4everluke theyre recording the new album now!!!

[@quiksilver199]

Everyone has to remember, Tom was also doped up on pain killers around this time

[@drumArthur]

@111whitepony111 you wanna hear the same thing he plays on the track then? instead of something different? buy the fuckin cd then and its not showing off, on the tracks he keeps it right, holds his willing back, but live he can play whatever comes to his mind, and on his case, it sounds awesome.. his fills fit it nicely, he wont do a crazy and long fill on the song, he just puts nice little ones on the middle of it and with the right volume.

[@drumArthur]

@111whitepony111 wrong too dude. it sounded cool, it sounded AWESOME... if it sounded bad or he didnt fit it on the tempo, then you would be able to talk about the way he plays one of the things that makes a drummer be a good one is being able to randomly play something different from the song knowing that it sounds good and it fits. and again, if he is playing it, he can change it the way he wants.. if you were playing there, you would be able to do the changes u want

[@jakechitty1]

Tom was on painkillers here for his back as he had only just had surgery for slipping a disc, that's why he sounds like this. So no more arguments about his voice in this video from now ON! just enjoy

[@rattrameggeagoth]

I wish Travis would record the drums like he plays live.

[@DiegoBlinkmania]

aguante Blink 182 xD buen video xD

[@drumArthur]

@111whitepony111 no, im not 12, im older. just because many people say that, it doesnt its not true. maybe they are all right.. what ever dude, this discussion is going no where, i have my opinion and you have yours, im sticking up for mine just like u are for oyurs

[@tbsblink]

I prefer Tom's voice like this. 2003-2005 was better than anything pre 2002 and anything post 2005. I love the "SHEERS YOURRRR HOLIDAYYYYY". It actually sounds pretty good imo.

[@SemDog08]

idk about that lisin to the lyrics on the blink sounds they have so much fucking meanings

[@cormac71]

ya i tryed it 2 its hard ,ut i tink he sounds good

[@111whitepony111]

@hettiot watch their performance of 'down' on letterman and get back to me on that.

[@wolfx91art]

i blink sono i migliori...XD

[@GiGmartim]

@mergatroidproduction they did

[@drumArthur]

@hettiot dude, there is no such thing as the best drummer.. there are many genres of music, and there is a great drummer to each and every single one of them.. Travis is one of the greatest, probably top 5 of punk/pop rock! Many people say he sucks but they dont understand that his solos fit punk rock shows and entertain teenagers who dont understand anything of drumming.. If people knew that he had a classic and old drumming background and most of the things he does are old-school drumming..

[@drumArthur]

@111whitepony111 second part, as u said, its almost show-offy .. well bud, he is one of the greatest drummers alive, not saying he is the best cause he is not,but still, he can show off a little if he wants.. every drummer in the world shows off a little or even a lot many many times on his life, and u know thats true! Im a drummer as well, when i play, i do it to have fun but sometimes i wanna show off! its cool, it makes u feel great!

[@guilhermecidral1]

travis is the best!!!

[@IvanLjubesicljubax]

tom was on painkillers,and he still did a good job

[@adamstopreadingthis]

yes....they basically flipped the A in the middle which made a V

[@spencyj]

I agree with you but dont use rolling stone as an example. They're the same magazine who put a picture of taylor laughtner on their cover when they had big articles on aerosmith and Tom petty.

[@drumArthur]

@111whitepony111 dude, i dont know what sloppy means, english is not my mother language

[@landonbarks8]

im not sure if it stands for it or anything but Ava is Toms daughters name

[@Mrmanlystuff]

they don't sing bad live usually but... that wasn't their best... but HOLY SHIT TRAVIS TURNED IT ON blink is the best! =D

[@bruceleedisciple]

Ok, cool. :)

[@SHAZZAM123455]

@superganjaaaa And there are some singers where the studio makes no difference and the only wa they sound good is when the sound is drowned out b the instruments live

[@Thepicturelamp]

@Le5Pau1 hes not the best singer live, and thats why we love him

[@Greksi09]

does anybody know how to play the part 2:00 to 3:30 ?

[@N1ckPall]

it's like "Back To The Future", welcome to 240p..(I would say 10 p)). Whatever, Blink 182 best even in so doing)))

[@adyingshadow]

why we arguing if tom's voice is good or not? we're here for blink 182 and not just tom

[@NeonLightsSetFree]

@mergatroidproduction ...where ya been since 2009?

[@TheMetallicafan7]

u cant realy help how he sounds on the chorus its hard t sing its strong like crawling from linkin park

[@hettiot]

@111whitepony111 oh i can. he can hold a tempo. and his voice ist sloppy. its good. special. different.

[@Hoppusisgod]

he was also an addict

[@superganjaaaa]

shows how awesome the studio is, no offense to tom but it does make a diference. and it was still a fucken freat performance.

[@OverSlyZed]

@coheedandcambria0519 Blahblah.

[@sumtinlikethat]

ur wrong... its the message for this song... not the sound of the vocals or the instruments

[@Michael6023]

3rd comment tom delonge owns

[@mil182]

he was drinking before the show

[@Allraff]

Mark is good live and Tom has no voice... But blink 182 is still Great!!!

[@wky0532]

I am not sure it is just me or Tom really changed after he was diagnosed cancer. I watched several live shows on KZbin and Tom just looks so different than the Tom several years ago, from a EMO handsome kid to a fat man. So sad.

[@drumArthur]

blink is all about crappy live performances, if you don't know that, you are not a blink fan... crappy performances by mark and tom plus epic drumming by travis makes them so fun to watch their awesome and funny stage presence makes it all worth it

[@300daysandnights]

John is kill.

[@jjozeto]

at the beggining.....sins = sings*

[@hettiot]

@drumArthur i say hes the best. show me a better drummer. with link and so on. and ill beat this drummer. or travis will

[@agusquezadaa]

capo:)

[@Deliveryboy777]

@Tristin809 um...i dont think so... i think he got wayy worsee

[@xXbhenzXx]

tom is in a British accent mode... lol

[@Svendiesel]

@NintyGuy999 Lulz

[@111whitepony111]

@drumArthur no one can deny that he's sloppy and can't hold a tempo live. that's my only argument.

[@tipodearriba]

don't waste your time if you have nothing good to reply!!

[@Legendil]

What the hell is Tom's voice :(

[@coolhansy]

Comon, toms singing is a part of blink 2 . Kinda lame that you think he sux and everything and you still like blink or at least watch these videos ..

[@revojoe20]

tom seems like he was trying

[@Michael6023]

2nd comment :)

[@ValkyreBomb]

can travis be any faster

[@2badS0sad]

Cuz if you take enough painkillers it will make u somewhat high

[@bladetorn13]

sheesh, chill out guys. Tom isnt THAT bad.

[@1SparklingBanana]

No.... it's called pain killers

[@anjan14]

i wouldnt say blink sukcs live this song is prerry hard to sing live the chorus

[@jjozeto]

Travis is the best in this band, an amazing drummer who doesn't disappoint their fans, but wooow...mark and tom mmm they should dedicate to play guitar and bass...the singing is bad

[@bradster994]

if you want more meaning, go read a book or something

[@BurtonRider90210]

Tom has lower back problems and has to take alot of painkillers.. thats why his voice is messed up.

[@Allraff]

I agree... I like Mark, Tom and travis...Blink is one my favorite bands... But Tom still sucks live

[@bruceleedisciple]

Woah, how did rape and murder get into this?

[@doggyballs2]

@kendalloh hes drunk helps him preform makes him off tune

[@SquierLiam182]

He got addicted to the pain pills. So he was kinda messed up a lot

[@bdozer86]

They shouldnt tour.

[@sk8andsnw182]

too bad rolling stone magazine rated him 50th of all time drummers, so your hypothesis is a bust

[@music4ewaa]

"punk is great music, played by bad musicians" -Fat Mike, NOFX

[@cormac71]

no way blink-182 are at least 3 times beter ava are good but not as good

[@strovernoo]

mark sings bad? wtf are you talking about? is this a punk band or a justin bieber band?! blink wouldnt be anything without tom and mark unique voices. Of course, scott did a good job but in my opinion blink become better and more succesful with travis.

[@knotslip16]

yeah he isn't THAT bad but he really ain't very good, it is too whiny. Mark should sing.
