You know why I love this song?? Because it's about something that barely anyone ever writes about. Growing up and getting married and having kids and being HAPPY. This is a true love song. Love songs nowadays are all about heartbreak and sadness, and it's so refreshing to have one that is filled with joy. Good job, blink, you did NOT disappoint.
This song is so underrated it's ridiculous. I think these are arguably the best lyrics that Tom had ever written for a Blink song and I can feel the emotion in every word he says.
Not Now Official pretty sure this song was meant for his wife. "19, your eyes glowing to my beating heart..." some sources said they were met in 93 (highschool days) and start dating in 96
Verse 1: Tom DeLonge] Nineteen, your eyes are glowing to my beating heart Oh, it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm And you never really know where it goes up until it starts I got my eye on you, whatcha gonna do? Daydream near a stream with the linear bites Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night And I can't picture you, but I sure got the feeling right What a crazy world, pretty little girl [Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge] And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise And we're laughing out loud over the craziest news And you reached for my hand, I was scared in your room We fell on the floor and we started to move And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop Up my back, they would climb just as I came unglued [Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus] She said, "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again" If you play the part, then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight We'll be there to try it again [Verse 2: Tom DeLonge] Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor Your eyes, they cannot lie, as you're dreaming of our future home And the kids are growing up, as you and I, we are growing old What a crazy world, pretty little girl [Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge] In the rain, with the drink from the back of the bar I would raise up my voice, you would raise it up more We'd forget that our lives being apart, it is hard We'd thought we were close, but it still feels far Can we learn to get by if we learn to have scars? If we learn to forgive and accept who we are [Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus] She said, "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again" If you play the part, then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight We'll be here to do it again [Verse 3: Yelawolf] Wait a minute, hold up a second Don't leave me here with this feeling, like I'm the one full of regret Like I never did good for us both, like you never did Pull out that weapon And stick that knife in my back, was I supposed to accept it When your words are like More than just sticks and stones, kinda like a bullet A hollow tip that's lodged in my bones, and I can't just swallow it My pride is more than all that I own, so I gotta give it away And some of the times I'm all the way wrong But can't you see past me and see my fucked up home That made me the meanest, the devil is just singing along To the song I write 'til I'm alone at night And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue 'Cause I know that me and you is just only right, but One, one, one, one... [Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge] It's a cry from the past, we have been through a lot Every year has been great and a few have been tough And your kids, they will reach for the stars up above We'll sit and relax as we're cheering them on The ropes to the light from the crib to the grave We started alone, in the end we're okay [Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus] She said "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again" If you play the part, then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight We'll be there to try it again
@@ogcodvideos6546, 182 News is a GREAT podcast. It's all about Blink-182 and their side projects. In a recent episode, the host states Tom did indeed sell all his songs for a pretty good price.
This song is amazing and relevant and so real. The older I get the more I listen. REALLY listen to these guys, they are deep and accurate in writing about so many parts of life. The stages and things we don’t usually talk about.
I love this song! Just screams life in a relationship. Everything is awesome...19 as we roll across the bedroom floor...”. The tough times...”the rapping section...and happily ever after...”in the end we are ok!! “. It is my dream! Only song I can think of the rivals this is by Hothouse Flowers, Thing of Beauty.
I get tears in my eyes after that rap part hearing the lyrics to that last verse. You can hear so much emotion in those words and also realize there won’t be any blink songs like this again
It's actually a really well written song. It evolves. Blink is no longer the party thrashing 24 year olds... They are 38-39 year old dads... You can definitely see he's talking about his wife. refers to how they have kids now and are growing old.
+Gabriel Esuola yes well said , i can relate so much with those lyrics being born in 75 as Travis and Tommy, lol i grew up with them listening them songs
This entire album was awesome. Tom really knows how to write lyrics 'about something' and make you feel exactly how he feels in the story he's singing about. Blink 182 was getting better and better at doing that album after album.. and then they broke up :(( I also never thought twice about the rap at the end until someone mentioned it, feels like Travis's influence. Just like the sort of AVA sound at the beginning. Their willingness to keep finding new sounds, experiment, and still pull it off is what makes this band amazing.

Wow. Thank you, Mark, Tom, and Travis for allowing me to temporarily go back a few years to when I was 18/19 to re-live a part of my life which was beautiful but I know I cannot return to. "It's a cry from the past we have been through a lot Every year has been great and a few have been tough." This has been absolution for both parties involved in what happened. I normally don't post things like this, but I'm a little drunk and very sad tonight so I don't care. Life is good, though.
As someone who grew up with these guys, i can't think of a better song to end that chapter of my life with... this album couldn't have come out at a better time...
Blink will always be my favorite band. I've been listening to them from the beginning. I've grown up with their music. I have teenage kids now and they are both fans as well. I can't think of any other band that the 3 of us would listen to together. Pure awesomeness.😍
The more I listen to it, the more Yelawolf doesn't really bother me. It just makes Tom sound that much better (like that was possible) afterwards. Great song
I remember neighborhoods came out when I was 16. I was so excited because I thought Blink-182 would ever make a return back then. When this e.p came out I was even more excited. This song stuck out to me since I'm a hopeless romantic who was still a teenager. I remember the lonely drinking I did and jamming out to this because nobody listens to what I do. Ahh good times. I didn't care much for the rap verse but after listening to the lyrics several times I've grown to love it. It's what makes this song even more special. When California came out, I was this much excited all over again. I can't wait to hear what the new album is like. 05-10-2019 cheers everyone 🍺
Yelawolf is a very versatile artist who can tailor his rapping to fit almost any song and he does an amazing job here too. He is one to respect all genres of music as well so he is a great fit. I couldn't picture any other rapper doing a better job and fitting into this genre. If you don't like it, listen to the rest of the album. But let us who enjoy artists being artists enjoy this song. This is what music is about, experimenting with sound to make music. It doesn't have to conform to a set of rules, that's why they are called artists. Uniqueness and experimentation is what drives the industry. I'm sure you haters aren't in middle school anymore, so stop acting like it and enjoy their beautiful creation.
Classic blink song. O-M-G. HAHAHA. Fuckin weird space sound, slow, the only good thing in this song is pre chorus, rest is shite. Classic blink song is M+M's. Take out the rap and you have AvA.
Clark Kent completely agreed. ive had every album and no matter the sound there are certain songs that give you the same feeling. This one minus the yellawolf or whatever that guys name is does it for me. The guy above you is just your typical band hipster who likes to pretend the best music a band ever makes is their first and maybe second album.
Haha. What a bullshit. I love every Blink album. I'm only saying that this song is nowhere near classic Blink song. "Dogs Eating Dogs" on this EP is a brilliant song and for sure has that classic Blink vibe a lot more. I also reckon that California is a very good album and songs like TOTTM, Cynical, SOOHM, Rabbit Hole, San Diego are great and bring back what Blink-182 is all about so unfortunately I'm not a typical hipster or some other shit that you think.
I'm back here again after California Deluxe. The lyrics are top notch and you can actually feel the emotion in Tom's voice. It's not just him singing. It's not just him recording. It's him speaking.
What everyone needs to understand is that every band evolves. Each album should be judged separately of each other. The comparison can't be made between albums because they are just that - separate albums. Blink-182 should keep doing what they're doing. I appreciate the growth and change. The new album triggers a sense of nostalgia that, by all logic, shouldn't be there. There is nothing this album refers to that would provide it with this feeling. In this way, the album is a success.
A lot of people hate the direction blink has taken. To me it shows their maturity. It's music that is easy to relate to everyday situations as an adult. I love their old stuff, but I absolutely love their new stuff.
I love their "old" stuff with a passion. And I love their "new" stuff with a passion. It's the same blink, grown up. DEAL WITH IT. Yelawolf sounds amazing on this btw. It's a great track.
God I wish Tom would come back and they’d make another album. I liked neighborhoods too damn it. Yes there were some filler songs but up all night, wishing well, even if she falls in love, along with some others were good and so was this ep. I like Matt fine but nothing is ever gonna meet this combination
I became a fan in 2009 at 14 years old. They came back at the right time in my life. I saw blink with tom when i was 19 in 2014. Tom went his own way again the moment my teens were over. It was perfect. (Skiba rocks btw)
i can't stop listening to this track. Blink helped me growing up and now Blink helps me to settle down the score (or how do they say in english) thank you Blink for being come to Hungary sometimes :D
to see a band that has consistently released such incredible music over the years break up...and then release neighborhoods upon reuniting...i was like a father. i wasnt mad, but i was disappointed. but this...this really warms my heart. their heart is back in it, theyre doing new things. i am really happy about this.
I remember when i listened to this song with my first girlfriend in 2012, a couple of years later we lost the mark but we didn't try again, i hope that she's happy now.
its actually great, just has no place in this song. So forced. It doesnt transition into it well at all, and transitions even worse out of it, they lazily forced it in to a song that doesn't call for it. Standing apart from this song, its a great part.
I didn't have my own phone until I was 18-19ish. My first 💔 Kyle was the only guy that called me. He moved away after a month and it took me many years to get over him.
Nineteen, your eyes are glowing to my beating heart Oh, it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm And you never really know where it goes up until it starts I got my eye on you Whatcha gonna do Day dream near a stream with the linear bites Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night And I can't picture you but I sure got the feeling right What a crazy world Pretty little girl And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise And we're laughing out loud over the craziest news And you reached for my hand I was scared in your room We fell on the floor and we started to move And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop Up my back they would climb just as I came unglued She said If you break my heart then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again If you play the part then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark if we hold on tight We'll be there to try it again Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor Your eyes they cannot lie as you're dreaming of our future home And the kids are growing up as you and I we are growing old What a crazy world Pretty little girl In the rain with the drink from the back of the bar I would raise up my voice, you would raise it up more We'd forget that our lives being apart it is hard We'd thought we were close but it still feels far Can we learn to get by if we learn to have scars If we learn to forgive and accept who we are You said If you break my heart then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again If you play the part then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark if we hold on tight We'll be here to do it again Wait a minute hold up a second Don't leave me here with this feeling Like I'm the one full of regret Like I never did good for us both Like you never did pull out that weapon And stick that knife in my back Was I supposed to accept it When your words are like More than just sticks and stones Kinda like a bullet A hollow tip that lodged in my bones And I can't just swallow it My pride is more than all that I own So I gotta give it away And some of the times I'm all the way wrong But can't you see past me and see my fucked up home That made me the meanest, the devil is just singing along To the song I write til I'm alone at night And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue 'Cause I know that me and you is just only right but one It's a cry from the past we have been through a lot Every year has been great and a few have been tough And your kids they will reach for the stars up above We'll sit and relax as we cheer in the morrow The ropes to the light from the crypt to the grave We started alone in the end we're okay You said If you break my heart then I'll change your mind And I'll do it again If you play the part then I will play mine And I'll do it again If we miss the mark if we hold on tight We'll be here to try it again
It was my wife wedding song. Til dis day wen she hears it she cries because it was an emotional day for her she's my big baby. I love her n my daughter
Its more like putting ricotta on a fucking lobster! Shit i was really grooving until that rap shit came on. It wasnt even decent even the rapper himself sucked.
Blink 182 has been making music with almost nothing but the voices of two people. Be understanding when they experiment with a different voice that isn't Robert Smith's for once in 20 years. You don't understand the creation of music if you get mad at a band for thinking progressively and incorporating new genres. If I meet any of you haters in person I will slap the damn shit out of you.
Eddie Southwick hey, I think we should set aside our differences today. Let's take some time to be thankful we have Blink 182, and smartphones and laptops through which we can argue with strangers. Merry Christmas everyone.
Everything Blink makes is awesome. So many different sounds and types of music. People need to stop getting stuck in their ways and recognize talent and just enjoy it.
Blink never disappoints, you guys are gonna be selling out stadiums for the next 15 years if you wanted to, come play a show in Jersey soon, PLEASE!!!!!
blink in the course of their history and of their albums have ALWAYS had a lot of changes ... from a dude Ranche enema to take off urs pants and jacket to blink's 2003 album Neighborhoods to arrive today ... the beauty of blink 182 lies in this ... they change and fans appreciate this ... love blink 182, love tom, mark and travis ... and so will always be so put on your heart at rest.
i like yelawolfs part bc since him and travis are boys it adds travis barkers new path to the mixture of this EP, right there with marks +44 vibe and toms AVA
It's songs like these that make me long for tom's return to blink but i know it probably won't happen. At least I have this ep that inspires me to make songs like Blink did and take people away from all the bad stuff in their lives :) Thanks Tom, Mark and Travis for everything.
It's weird how pure and innocent teenage love can be. I remember when I was 16, my girlfriend showed this song to me, I loved it from the start! It was surreal how relatable the lyrics were, as if this love we felt for each other would last forever, and we never thought otherwise back then. But then, as you grow up, you grow appart and slowly become different people, pointless fights become more frequent, anxiety kicks in, and before you know it, there is more toxicity and pain than love. We finally decided to break up a bit over half an year ago, after 4 years together. Listening to this brings back many memories and feelings I'll probably never feel again (not this intense, I mean). Yeaaa... I'll just leave this here..
The best thing about blink182, when I grew up listening to them, it was all highschool and girls, as they've got older and matured their lyrics have grown up with the rest of us. I can relate to their old stuff just as much as the new stuff
THIS SONG IS SO WELL WRITTEN...I love the rap part, and I generally dislike rapmusic. 1. The rap is melodic and it also brings an emotion. He basically seems angry and looks back at what happened in the relationship. He sets aside his pride, perhaps he was wrong at times,he basically has a fight with the woman he loves. It sounds like an argument with him blaiming her for things, then reflecting on himself and realising she is the only one for him. Tom then comes in with a reflection of the entire situation and seeing how good their life has been --> It's a cry from the past, we have been through a lot...
You know why I love this song?? Because it's about something that barely anyone ever writes about. Growing up and getting married and having kids and being HAPPY. This is a true love song. Love songs nowadays are all about heartbreak and sadness, and it's so refreshing to have one that is filled with joy. Good job, blink, you did NOT disappoint.

"19, your eyes glowing to my beating heart..." some sources said they were met in 93 (highschool days) and start dating in 96
Knowing Tom is divorced now this song is really sad because its seems like he would never give up on his marriage in this song.
At least he seems happy with his new lady friend

Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
Nineteen, your eyes are glowing to my beating heart
Oh, it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm
And you never really know where it goes up until it starts
I got my eye on you, whatcha gonna do?
Daydream near a stream with the linear bites
Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night
And I can't picture you, but I sure got the feeling right
What a crazy world, pretty little girl
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise
And we're laughing out loud over the craziest news
And you reached for my hand, I was scared in your room
We fell on the floor and we started to move
And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop
Up my back, they would climb just as I came unglued
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
She said, "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again"
If you play the part, then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight
We'll be there to try it again
[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor
Your eyes, they cannot lie, as you're dreaming of our future home
And the kids are growing up, as you and I, we are growing old
What a crazy world, pretty little girl
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
In the rain, with the drink from the back of the bar
I would raise up my voice, you would raise it up more
We'd forget that our lives being apart, it is hard
We'd thought we were close, but it still feels far
Can we learn to get by if we learn to have scars?
If we learn to forgive and accept who we are
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
She said, "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again"
If you play the part, then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight
We'll be here to do it again
[Verse 3: Yelawolf]
Wait a minute, hold up a second
Don't leave me here with this feeling, like I'm the one full of regret
Like I never did good for us both, like you never did
Pull out that weapon
And stick that knife in my back, was I supposed to accept it
When your words are like
More than just sticks and stones, kinda like a bullet
A hollow tip that's lodged in my bones, and I can't just swallow it
My pride is more than all that I own, so I gotta give it away
And some of the times I'm all the way wrong
But can't you see past me and see my fucked up home
That made me the meanest, the devil is just singing along
To the song I write 'til I'm alone at night
And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue
'Cause I know that me and you is just only right, but
One, one, one, one...
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
It's a cry from the past, we have been through a lot
Every year has been great and a few have been tough
And your kids, they will reach for the stars up above
We'll sit and relax as we're cheering them on
The ropes to the light from the crib to the grave
We started alone, in the end we're okay
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
She said "If you break my heart, then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again"
If you play the part, then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark, if we hold on tight
We'll be there to try it again
If Tom ever returns to blink-182, I want their new album to sound like this EP.

Thank you, I love people that give us the lyrics
Wow. Thank you, Mark, Tom, and Travis for allowing me to temporarily go back a few years to when I was 18/19 to re-live a part of my life which was beautiful but I know I cannot return to. "It's a cry from the past we have been through a lot
Every year has been great and a few have been tough." This has been absolution for both parties involved in what happened. I normally don't post things like this, but I'm a little drunk and very sad tonight so I don't care. Life is good, though.
Blake Baker i Like your name, Blake
this comment made me cry
I feel you.

Blink now collaborated with Lil Wayne and forget that Yelawolf give the best rap verse on this song.
"Oh what a crazy world, pretty little girl" If a guy said something like that to me I'd probably marry him
"Oh what a crazy world, pretty little girl." Is later this year good for you?
smooth af. Beat me to the punch
FxDeeeh. 5
ohh what a mad planet, beautiful small chick
😂😂
As someone who grew up with these guys, i can't think of a better song to end that chapter of my life with... this album couldn't have come out at a better time...
Blink will always be my favorite band. I've been listening to them from the beginning. I've grown up with their music. I have teenage kids now and they are both fans as well. I can't think of any other band that the 3 of us would listen to together. Pure awesomeness.😍
The more I listen to it, the more Yelawolf doesn't really bother me. It just makes Tom sound that much better (like that was possible) afterwards. Great song
what do you think
today
I remember neighborhoods came out when I was 16. I was so excited because I thought Blink-182 would ever make a return back then. When this e.p came out I was even more excited. This song stuck out to me since I'm a hopeless romantic who was still a teenager. I remember the lonely drinking I did and jamming out to this because nobody listens to what I do. Ahh good times. I didn't care much for the rap verse but after listening to the lyrics several times I've grown to love it. It's what makes this song even more special. When California came out, I was this much excited all over again. I can't wait to hear what the new album is like. 05-10-2019 cheers everyone 🍺
I usually don't care about celebrities' personal lives but it actually makes me sad listening to this song now Tom has divorced his wife :(
This song feels so magical to me. I love the melody so much.
Why does this make me get the feels everytime
Chills, every time
The feels... Right in the feels
Asma Khan same, that part "The kids are growing up cuz you and I are growing old" idk why but it does something to me 😂
Because Tom isnt in blink anymore since 2015 )-:
I thought I was the only one
How can anyone not like this because of the rapping? Variety is the spice of life, and blink has done an amazing job.
Not a fan of that part but the rest of the song makes up for it :)
Yeah it doesn't really add to the song, it was clearly forced on the band by the producer because at the time rap was all the rage.
Because rap sucks
The song is great, the rap part sucks.
@@turbo_brianexactly
this is the kind of record where you know the artists are getting older and more mature
last christmas i had this EP on repeat. brings back good memories. time for it again!
Yelawolf is a very versatile artist who can tailor his rapping to fit almost any song and he does an amazing job here too. He is one to respect all genres of music as well so he is a great fit. I couldn't picture any other rapper doing a better job and fitting into this genre.
If you don't like it, listen to the rest of the album. But let us who enjoy artists being artists enjoy this song. This is what music is about, experimenting with sound to make music. It doesn't have to conform to a set of rules, that's why they are called artists. Uniqueness and experimentation is what drives the industry.
I'm sure you haters aren't in middle school anymore, so stop acting like it and enjoy their beautiful creation.
For those that don't know, Travis Barker and Yelawolf did an EP a while back and Yelawolf and Ed Sheeran did an EP. Both were awesome.
OFFICIAL👍🏾
TheOfficialKC Nicely put.
Has that old blink feel to it, take out the rap and you have a classic blink song
Classic blink song. O-M-G. HAHAHA. Fuckin weird space sound, slow, the only good thing in this song is pre chorus, rest is shite. Classic blink song is M+M's. Take out the rap and you have AvA.
Its more in the feeling of the track. Has that feeling I cant explain other older blink tracks used to give me.
Clark Kent completely agreed. ive had every album and no matter the sound there are certain songs that give you the same feeling. This one minus the yellawolf or whatever that guys name is does it for me. The guy above you is just your typical band hipster who likes to pretend the best music a band ever makes is their first and maybe second album.
Haha. What a bullshit. I love every Blink album. I'm only saying that this song is nowhere near classic Blink song. "Dogs Eating Dogs" on this EP is a brilliant song and for sure has that classic Blink vibe a lot more. I also reckon that California is a very good album and songs like TOTTM, Cynical, SOOHM, Rabbit Hole, San Diego are great and bring back what Blink-182 is all about so unfortunately I'm not a typical hipster or some other shit that you think.
***** i stand corrected. Sorry for assuming.
I'm back here again after California Deluxe. The lyrics are top notch and you can actually feel the emotion in Tom's voice. It's not just him singing. It's not just him recording. It's him speaking.
Tony Nur Rahman ikr. Cali DLX is much better than Cali but still isn't close to Toms lyrics at all
Skiba is trash
Why can’t I hear this on Spotify Anymore?
I was searching this too!?? The whole album is gone!?? 😞😠🤔
they took it off for some reason they reuploaded it some days ago
It's there. You just need to search under Singles and it'll be near the bottom
THANKS BLINK 182... FOR MAKING YOUR SONGS FIT PERFECTLY WITH MY LIFE!!!!
What everyone needs to understand is that every band evolves. Each album should be judged separately of each other. The comparison can't be made between albums because they are just that - separate albums. Blink-182 should keep doing what they're doing. I appreciate the growth and change. The new album triggers a sense of nostalgia that, by all logic, shouldn't be there. There is nothing this album refers to that would provide it with this feeling. In this way, the album is a success.
When I first heard this song at the start of the year I wasn't sure of it. now I cant imagine the song without. Its so fitting and awesome
The rap that is
A lot of people hate the direction blink has taken. To me it shows their maturity. It's music that is easy to relate to everyday situations as an adult. I love their old stuff, but I absolutely love their new stuff.
One of the best Blink songs of all time
I love their "old" stuff with a passion. And I love their "new" stuff with a passion. It's the same blink, grown up. DEAL WITH IT. Yelawolf sounds amazing on this btw. It's a great track.
It’s been 8 years bro dam Iam getting old
God I wish Tom would come back and they’d make another album. I liked neighborhoods too damn it. Yes there were some filler songs but up all night, wishing well, even if she falls in love, along with some others were good and so was this ep. I like Matt fine but nothing is ever gonna meet this combination
i personally like the rap, it shows travis's influence on the track and fits nicely with the theme of the song
This, to me, will be the last Blink 182 song ever recorded.
Ben Keirstead right? screw matt skiba
If you want to be wrong sure
Yes yes yes
What if Tom comes back?
What about Neighborhood? -.-
Forever Blink 182
I became a fan in 2009 at 14 years old. They came back at the right time in my life. I saw blink with tom when i was 19 in 2014. Tom went his own way again the moment my teens were over. It was perfect. (Skiba rocks btw)
i can't stop listening to this track. Blink helped me growing up and now Blink helps me to settle down the score (or how do they say in english) thank you Blink for being come to Hungary sometimes :D
to see a band that has consistently released such incredible music over the years break up...and then release neighborhoods upon reuniting...i was like a father. i wasnt mad, but i was disappointed.
but this...this really warms my heart. their heart is back in it, theyre doing new things. i am really happy about this.
Haha, this is the song i listen to on repeat from the other night..weird.
Hahaha all day on repeat!
same here yo
Don't Take This Seriously ,.
been a blink fan for years. recently heard this song and can't stop playing it. so damn catchy. love the melody and groove
this song is underrated
Not anymore it’s the best
I remember when i listened to this song with my first girlfriend in 2012, a couple of years later we lost the mark but we didn't try again, i hope that she's happy now.
If Tom never comes back.. This will be the last original line up blink song. Great way to go out.
you know Travis isn't the original drummer right?
With a lot of kids in my neighborhood. "The kids are growing up as you and I, we are growing old." hits me right in the feels.
I'm actually chill with the "rap" lmao, I didn't think much of it until I read the comments
Same here actually.
its actually great, just has no place in this song. So forced. It doesnt transition into it well at all, and transitions even worse out of it, they lazily forced it in to a song that doesn't call for it. Standing apart from this song, its a great part.
*+Reid Erickson* Opinions though. I think it's fine.
its actually a really good rap its just most people don't exactly come to blink for that
100%
Love this
can't listen to this song without feeling nostalgic for something I've never had
Salah satu lagu terfavorit dari album dogs eating dogs. Gapernah bosen 💫 Overall a whole album the best sih #blink forever
this song is fuckin beautiful.
Yes sir it is Iam still after 6 years it’s been so long
Who else agrees that the synths in this song are the sickest toms ever written for any song especially with travis's drums
I didn't have my own phone until I was 18-19ish. My first 💔 Kyle was the only guy that called me. He moved away after a month and it took me many years to get over him.
1:35 2:55 4:06 every time I hear that ride cymbal it reminds me of my heroine/crawl drum track from AVA
I'm going to listen to that song right now
I am gonna like their songs forever
thanks for all your music, this EP is amazing!!
Danga Lovebeast!
I’m just happy I can listen to this and relive a small part of my youth
To me this song really shows how much Tom has really grown up
All the ropes to the light, from the crypt to the grave
We start here alone, in the end, we're okay
From the CRIB to the grave. SO like from when you're born till you die.
Nineteen, your eyes are glowing to my beating heart
Oh, it seems like it is fine as my hand is moving up your arm
And you never really know where it goes up until it starts
I got my eye on you
Whatcha gonna do
Day dream near a stream with the linear bites
Oh, I listen to the song on repeat from the other night
And I can't picture you but I sure got the feeling right
What a crazy world
Pretty little girl
And we wake from the night in a bed with a bruise
And we're laughing out loud over the craziest news
And you reached for my hand I was scared in your room
We fell on the floor and we started to move
And your hands were like birds as they flew from the coop
Up my back they would climb just as I came unglued
She said
If you break my heart then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We'll be there to try it again
Nineteen as we roll across the bedroom floor
Your eyes they cannot lie as you're dreaming of our future home
And the kids are growing up as you and I we are growing old
What a crazy world
Pretty little girl
In the rain with the drink from the back of the bar
I would raise up my voice, you would raise it up more
We'd forget that our lives being apart it is hard
We'd thought we were close but it still feels far
Can we learn to get by if we learn to have scars
If we learn to forgive and accept who we are
You said
If you break my heart then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We'll be here to do it again
Wait a minute hold up a second
Don't leave me here with this feeling
Like I'm the one full of regret
Like I never did good for us both
Like you never did pull out that weapon
And stick that knife in my back
Was I supposed to accept it
When your words are like
More than just sticks and stones
Kinda like a bullet
A hollow tip that lodged in my bones
And I can't just swallow it
My pride is more than all that I own
So I gotta give it away
And some of the times I'm all the way wrong
But can't you see past me and see my fucked up home
That made me the meanest, the devil is just singing along
To the song I write til I'm alone at night
And I hang up the phone and bite my tongue
'Cause I know that me and you is just only right but one
It's a cry from the past we have been through a lot
Every year has been great and a few have been tough
And your kids they will reach for the stars up above
We'll sit and relax as we cheer in the morrow
The ropes to the light from the crypt to the grave
We started alone in the end we're okay
You said
If you break my heart then I'll change your mind
And I'll do it again
If you play the part then I will play mine
And I'll do it again
If we miss the mark if we hold on tight
We'll be here to try it again
I really can't say. All I can say is they both sound amazing. They are definitely my two favorites. I hope you guys continue to make amazing music.
gonna be my wedding song.
happy wedding whenever it happens ❤️
It was my wife wedding song. Til dis day wen she hears it she cries because it was an emotional day for her she's my big baby. I love her n my daughter
LMFAO
Love the mix of the song. Everything songs really good.
Having that bit of rap in this song is like putting ketchup on a $100 steak.
Its more like putting ricotta on a fucking lobster! Shit i was really grooving until that rap shit came on. It wasnt even decent even the rapper himself sucked.
This song is like getting the best appetizers but then they forget to give u the main meal :/
exactly
Tom yeah that kinda sucked.
Pretty sure travis was the guilty one.
I love this song and the whole E.P so much. Their song writing has improved so much. Toms voice is amazing on this!
0:28 - Oh it seems like you just farted as my hand is moving up your arm. XD
i cant unhear that now, fuck you
The drum parts in this song are absolutely unreal
Blink 182 has been making music with almost nothing but the voices of two people. Be understanding when they experiment with a different voice that isn't Robert Smith's for once in 20 years. You don't understand the creation of music if you get mad at a band for thinking progressively and incorporating new genres. If I meet any of you haters in person I will slap the damn shit out of you.
At least Robert Smith's part gave something to the song, unlike this piece of shit rap..
I guess the sound is a preference but I still think it's a good concept. Stuff like this encourages others to be creative though.
Eddie Southwick Fuck off you absolute fanny badger
I do know everything, fuck off. Oh and happy christmas!
Eddie Southwick hey, I think we should set aside our differences today. Let's take some time to be thankful we have Blink 182, and smartphones and laptops through which we can argue with strangers. Merry Christmas everyone.
I just love the feeling of "freedom" that comes to me everytime I hear a Blink182 song... Thank you!
Such a sick song
Everything Blink makes is awesome. So many different sounds and types of music. People need to stop getting stuck in their ways and recognize talent and just enjoy it.
It’s a shame this album never fully released
This lyrics are amazing
0:28 I swear he's saying "Farted" hahaha XD
+Bottle Boys (Treasure Hunters) CANNOT. BE. UNHEARD.
We learn to forgive and accept who we are. This is perfection.
AND I WILL DOOOOOOOOO IT AGAIN
Blink never disappoints, you guys are gonna be selling out stadiums for the next 15 years if you wanted to, come play a show in Jersey soon, PLEASE!!!!!
Just Skipped through a section of a blink song...the end is near.
+Albert Wells The rap made me throw up.
they're back
blink in the course of their history and of their albums have ALWAYS had a lot of changes ... from a dude Ranche enema to take off urs pants and jacket to blink's 2003 album Neighborhoods to arrive today ... the beauty of blink 182 lies in this ... they change and fans appreciate this ... love blink 182, love tom, mark and travis ... and so will always be so put on your heart at rest.
i like yelawolfs part bc since him and travis are boys it adds travis barkers new path to the mixture of this EP, right there with marks +44 vibe and toms AVA
the only reason why I can't HATE it. I do skip it though
It's songs like these that make me long for tom's return to blink but i know it probably won't happen. At least I have this ep that inspires me to make songs like Blink did and take people away from all the bad stuff in their lives :) Thanks Tom, Mark and Travis for everything.
My favorite song
It's weird how pure and innocent teenage love can be. I remember when I was 16, my girlfriend showed this song to me, I loved it from the start! It was surreal how relatable the lyrics were, as if this love we felt for each other would last forever, and we never thought otherwise back then. But then, as you grow up, you grow appart and slowly become different people, pointless fights become more frequent, anxiety kicks in, and before you know it, there is more toxicity and pain than love. We finally decided to break up a bit over half an year ago, after 4 years together. Listening to this brings back many memories and feelings I'll probably never feel again (not this intense, I mean).
Yeaaa... I'll just leave this here..
this should have a music video by now :(
it does
*****
link?
The best thing about blink182, when I grew up listening to them, it was all highschool and girls, as they've got older and matured their lyrics have grown up with the rest of us. I can relate to their old stuff just as much as the new stuff
Never thought i would skip a section of a Blink song...
Amazing....seen em 2012 in newcastle...best gig...ever
THIS SONG IS SO WELL WRITTEN...I love the rap part, and I generally dislike rapmusic. 1. The rap is melodic and it also brings an emotion. He basically seems angry and looks back at what happened in the relationship. He sets aside his pride, perhaps he was wrong at times,he basically has a fight with the woman he loves. It sounds like an argument with him blaiming her for things, then reflecting on himself and realising she is the only one for him. Tom then comes in with a reflection of the entire situation and seeing how good their life has been --> It's a cry from the past, we have been through a lot...
Still my fav blink song.
I Miss you Tom Delonge
i love this song so much it gave me goosebu- what is that rap
what
Tom please come home we need you
beautiful song. listening to this at 3am sounds even more magical for some reason
The aesthetic
I miss the old teenage reckless blink 183 :(
your right, blink 183 is far better than this blink 182 shit
Alex Kuhn Bahahahahahaha.....I totally agree with you!!!!
Alex Kuhn
you're
There old now.
where may i buy an album of blink 183?
I will miss this band dearly. Even though I got into blink the same year they broke up I will never stop listening
0:26 "Oh it seems like you just farted as my hand is moving up your arm."
You've ruined this song forever ;D Hilarious as F though!
+Jakeypakes Right?? Doesn't it sound like he's saying that?
is that not what he said? lol jk
James Bayly you can never un hear it lmao
Why? That's all I'm going to hear from now.
I love you Blink-182, thanks for make our lifes better.
