'90s/'00s pop-punk is fun, silly, and cool. lol It's an acquired taste for folks not used to punk rock in general like your wife. lol I wonder what she'd think of Sum 41, The Offspring, Green Day, NoFX, etc?!
So, I like this song a lot. It's light, fast paced, and has sentimental core that is aimed at young men. Basically the message is to keep your head up when someone does you wrong. And part of coping with being wronged is leaning on your friends. If you call this corny, my question for you is what isn't corny? I find this song admittedly immature and they are in no way hiding that. But country and hip hop music are both filled with phonies who try to fit certain images mainstream listeners will respond to because let's face it their fan's music taste are the lowest common denominator. That pandering to audiences is a lot cornier to me. I''m pretty defensive but if you gonna give the negativity expect the blowback.
This was the song that changed my whole life. Blink 182 was the band that made me love punk rock music. Dammit has so much sentimental value. If you grew up during that time you’d understand what I mean. They were so much fun and goofy but also would hit you with some more mature songs that were on point. This was when punk was rocking and rolling best era for this style of music.
This is Blink-182 before Travis Barker on drums. This is Scott Rayner on drums. Scott was drummer for their first two albums (which were their best, and their most punk). Travis is a better drummer. But Blink was a better band when Scott was on drums.
That DI song which T mentioned is actually pretty awesome :) Here's the thing, though, punk rock goes in different sub-genres and eras. DI, for example, is from the American underground of the early 1980s, the topics in the songs of that era were usually much darker but also with a dash of oddball humor. Social commentary done in a clever manner was pretty common. The other thing is that most underground bands of that period had no hope of getting mainstream attention nor airplay, so they just let it all hang out and did whatever they wanted. While growing-up I was instantly drawn to the politically incorrect nature and absurdity in it all not to mention some of the rage it could invoke. Later on toward the 90s I didn't mind Green Day nor Blink 182, but they were more of a different take on being an outcast and such and in a more poppy way. Poppy-punk always existed - Descendants and Hard-Ons to quickly name two from the earlier 80s, so it just depends upon what style you like.
Thank you dude. People are quick to accuse Green Day and Blink of not being "true punk", yet Descendents have been sort of a "poppy" sounding punk band for years.
@@SuperTiaanBro Exactly, yall are correct. Many sub-genres out there and not just one type of sound/style. Gotta love the elitists, gatekeepers, genre police. lol!
Well, if she wants to feel moved by a blink-182 song, I guess "Adam's Song" is the right one. Maybe she might like the more recent songs, as they also changed their sound as time pass. This is a very "juvenile" song in all matters, it's not that easy to relate after you're an adult I guess.
Blink 182 started out as a joke band. It was never about the money or fame for them, just all fun and games. They purposefully didn't take anything seriously. Everything was just for fun and to joke around. But that is what made them popular. They still have a few joke songs but they are a little more serious about their music today. But they still just want to have fun with it all too.
A lot of the 2000s punk was silly. I like this one, though. One super popular Blink-182 song I can't stand is "What's My Age Again?" Good Charlotte is another one of these pop-punk bands from around the same time. "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" is probably their biggest hit.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT The roots of punk rock go back even further, back to The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, MC5 & The New York Dolls. Blink 182 is recent enough that they can't really be described as punk or even post-punk. I think they suck, anyway.
@@TheAdventuresofTNT Other great Ramones songs-- "Loudmouth", "We're A Happy Family", "I Just Want To Have Something To Do", "Rock 'N' Roll High School" (which is also the name of a movie about the band).
I like the message in this song. It's basically anti-incel/positive masculinity if you think about it. Basically telling men hey, you're gonna get your heart broken and its gonna suck but thats a part of life and you'll be fine.
i love that you have 2 sides here that is rare to see and i admire that she can just say nope not my cuppa tea , perfectly fine =) glad you gave it a chance though and glad you liked it super cool reaction guys !
@@TheAdventuresofTNT that's why music is so great though I think , because there is such a difference to listeners so there is sooo many opinions on it I find it fascinating how wide spread and far conversations can thrive off just 1 song it's amazing! Keep it up 🙏🙏
Well you def haven't listened to "Take Off Your Pants & Jacket" cuz that album is as punk you can get. Also blink isn't "pop rock" that's a dumb name to begin with
Blink 182 is more pop-punk than punk rock. Punk rocks bands would be like the Descendants, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, and Clash. Then, maybe you can dip your toes into hardcore punk.
What I like about this song love playing it on my drum set. Pretty good work out. Remember PennState University had a drum set up stairs near library at branch campus. Played this song and loud on the drum set even brought my own cymbals and stands so it sounded good. Got applauded when I walked down stairs. Lol. One guy said he wish he had a beer cause he knew what song I was playing. Lol
It's a shame that almost everyone thinks "punk" means this type of bubblegum crap. Listen to some Fear, D.O.A., Black Flag, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat or Negative Approach for some REAL punk...
Hi., greedings from overseas... Try some,, real,, Punk Rock from Germany.. :"Slime-komm schon klar,," (means..,, I get my way,,) the singer was a home less before He joint the Band.. 🎸☠️
Hhaha, my favorite band of all time! Maybe have her listen to stuff off enema or take off your pants and jacket! Its a bit more poppy imo. Their whole schtick was to be goofy. Maybe all the small things? First date? Whats my age again?
Calling this song corny is like saying the ocean is damp. Thats the whole fucking point of it. It’s meant to be fun. I bet she has no clue how corny and horrible Destiny’s Child is to people who listen to pop punk.
Love the show guys but not keen on corny / dross choons. Love to see you pick non mainstream songs. Push some boundaries / find obscure bands. Guaranteed to get better reactions?
To me punk has always been the most shallow of all music. The exact same chords, melodies, and worst of all, the same sneering "British" vocals. The only value it had was either political, or it could be humourous. This early Blink song isn't very good, but they got a new drummer shortly after named Travis Barker, and he was electric. One of the best rock drummers of the last 25 years or so. Check out their video for "First Date" to see their humourous side, and to hear Travis on fire. It's a great song.
Because you have been living under a rock for decades. Or live in some rural town in the middle of nowhere. lol Get out more, dude. There's always been many black and mixed race punk rockers. Fans and musicians, bands.

No it's not pop, quit being a boomer gatekeeper. It's PUNK that's a LITTLE poppy (hints why it's a sub-genre called pop-punk) cuz it's meant to be more appealing to bigger audiences but still has punk elements

Green Day is not what I consider punk......but personal opinion, maybe try some Dead Kennedys or some from the beginning with The Stooges.
💯
Well green day, Blink & sum-41 are punk like it or not
React to Sum 41
This was my song back in the day.
A lot of the 2000s punk was silly. I like this one, though. One super popular Blink-182 song I can't stand is "What's My Age Again?"
Good Charlotte is another one of these pop-punk bands from around the same time. "Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous" is probably their biggest hit.
What's my age again? Is their best one besides "Aliens exist" & "Anthem" what you talkin bout?
This brings me back to 6th grade in 96/97
I admire your efforts. Have you started at the beginning with the Ramones Blitzkrieg bop, or the Sex pistols God save the Queen etc?
Yes. we did Blitzkrieg Bop last week and she loved it.
I would also suggest The Jam. They were a great band. “In The City” is their best song IMHO.
