Admit it. You know you've done it. Anyone who has ever heard Tom DeLonge belt out his distinct So-Cal snarl on an Angels And Airwaves, Boxcar Racer or old school blink-182 track has tried to imitate his vocal delivery. In this APTV exclusive interview, Tom DeLonge recalls the first time he heard his signature "Where are yeeeeew?!?!" sung to him and reveals the pop-punk legend who he's been trying to sound like over the course of his career.
DeLonge also discusses the modern post-punk band that he and Travis Barker fully backed, divulges what he considers to be his greatest weakness and opens up (as much as he's legally permitted to) about his ongoing pursuit to make a connection with extraterrestrial lifeforms.

I wish Tom would get more appreciation. Not just grief about the aliens and leaving blink. The dude is really interesting
I definitely don't think blink sounds the same but if I'm being honest, I like how Matt sounds on nine more than Tom's but Tom's is really nostalgic to the other albums. it's kinda like the discussion on Chester Bennington in Linkin Park and how hard it would be to replace him. it damned if you do and damned if you don't.
I agree.
@@calvinfletcher4699 I agree with you. I think both Tom and Matt have a similar writing style. On album matt does edge over Tom. BUT...we've listened to previous albums with Tom on vocals and it's very strange to hear at a live show. I think Matt is a good fit, but like you, there's the nostalgia that will always come back with Tom
People tend to lash out when their personal little bubble is threatened by things they don't understand. Tom is a cool dude, always has been.
I think Tom is tied with Dexter Holland for the world's most interesting man.
I met Tom once and he was a gent. He invited me over to introduce me to the AVA guys, when I met them all, he pulled a chair out and asked me to join them. He was so warm, funny and endearing. He genuinely is a great guy and if most people got to meet or spend time with him their opinions of him would be different 🤘
I want spaghetti
I met the guy at a book signing in San Diego, great guy, it was the first time I really ever met such a huge rock star who’s music I grew up listening to
Wish I could meet him as well :')
And then he raped you?
What a dream 🥹
I could listen to Tom talking for hours and hours, this guy is not only a great musician but a very interesting person. I remember when everybody was thinking he was crazy about all the extraterrestrial stuff but little by little people are giving him the credit he deserves.
By far the coolest dude ever. Anyone who’s friends with him are lucky fuckers. Keep it up Tom
He signed a merch shirt for me once after a show and he asked me if it was my underwear he was signing lol
I love how he’s so in tuned to all of these sub cultures and hobbies we love. He’s very much a suburban king!🤘🏼🤙🏼
I absolutely love Tom
I'm a simple man, I see Tom Delonge.. I click like.. 👍
it's a simple plan
@@goupif Good band
17:35 What you came for
Best comment
I would pin this if I could
Thanks god
Nope. Didn't come for that.
thanx
this guy not only inspired me to pick back up the guitar, but he also inspired me to want to know more. his character, the way he carries himself, his musicianship, his intelligence, his humor, and his thinking and logic are all things I aspire to have. beautiful person.
That was well said of Tom. He is one of the coolest cats about, 😇🤩🤩💚🤘🤘. I am glad that you picked up your Guitar 🎸 again. That is an extremely important relationship to have with yourself. ROCK ON,Brother, 🤩🤩🤩💚🤘🤘.
SAMEEEE, ik its corny but he’s my idol🖤
Tom is the only role model I had as a child that has never let me down.
Say what you want, the guy is consistent, he's honest and has integrity.
i love tom, mark, and travis no matter what..
so watch the mark, tom, and travis show!
I’m so glad he exists.
Aliens exists
"Unfortunatly I ended up sounding like me" said the man with one of the most striking voices ever
"I ended up sounding like me, unfortunately." No! The "Tom Voice" is legendary! You take that back! :0
It's not a Tom DeLonge video if aliens aren't mentioned
I was gonna comment something like this too.
Looked up to you, Mark, and Travis growing up. I'm 31 now. Thanks for the memories ❤️ #Blink182 #AVA #boxcarracer
This guy is a perfect mixture of funny, intelligent, humble and friendly, the world would be a better a place if we could have more people like him.
Here's wishing you many years of health and happiness Tom, thanks for your music and your example.
"theres vomit on his sweater already, toms spaghetti"
I know this was written awhile ago but shit that's funny.
Tom doing impressions of his own old singing voice is gold !
Fr 😂
0:42 "I like to watch movies and do something with my hand"
Lol I understood your dirty joke😂
Classic Tom
I'm the same way...
Tom is low key the most genius artist of our time
Fax bro
Have you seen the djent genre? that stuff is mind blowing. Tom is just a neat guy.
@Secret Agent Steve it's hard to explain rn, but i think that if you watch his "pursuit of tone" you'll understand why he thinks like that
Agreed. I believe the most musically creative minds in terms of mainstream artists exist between Tom DeLonge and Thom Yorke.
Get yourself a dictionary and look up “guitarist” and “Genius”
There is something so pure and heart warming about a guy who has so many passions in his life, and who goes after them with such gusto. Watch this video if you're having a bad day and it'll definitely cheer you up.
You were right,turned my day right around
I have watched tons of Tom delonge interviews over the years since he and blink ran my child hood (I’m 34).. this is by far his best one. It’s was nice to hear him go into detail about a lot of things I wondered about him over the years. He looks healthy too. Tom will always be a huge part of my life, even though I have kinda grown out of that style of music. I will always have that kinda respect for it. Just like he said he kinda grew out of
The punk rock.
One thing I learned from this is that being rich and famous won't get you better video quality or faster internet speeds.
Maybe fiber internet isn’t a priority for him. Don’t waste your time on DSL only dial-up for meeeee!
So happy to hear him giving Bloc Party love. One of my favorite bands.
Been a fan since 11th grade in 1997!
Same year for me too but I was in 7th grade !
1994, Spanish class. Friend lent me the Cassette tape ( demo ) Asked me if, “I wanted to go to the show at SOMA” that weekend... Instant fan...
@@pears0094 that SOMA show is legendary, heck yeah man
This was awesome! More Tom! 🙋♂️
Yeah its great to see him open up.
@@TheUndeadGaucho Yeah, absolutely 👍🏼
One day I'll meet this guy and it'll be the greatest day of my life!!
It was one of the greatest days in my life when I met him and they let me hangout in the arena before an AVA concert in Italy. I was 16 and he took the time to speak with me. Such a cool down to earth dude!
The guy super tall . Met him when he had a book signing . Really cool guy !!
I met him :D
@@alcyonae they came to Italy? O.O when?
@@giuliar2539 I’m pretty sure it was June 2006 in Milan! I’m old
Imagine several drinks with him and he starts talking about other life and all these crazy topics. My mind would be blown.
That would be a dream come true
Tom's life story is so fucking interesting and hearing himself talk about himself and his beliefs is so interesting, I would actually pay for a podcast by Tom
0:29 he mentions spaghetti, they show linguine.
TORTALINI
"spaghetti" in the US is used as a synonym to "pasta". It's not technically correct, but when people say "spaghetti" they might not mean literally this type of pasta.
@@l0sts0ul89 squidward tennisballs
@@bloojkl4520 Not really though. I'm from Socal and spaghetti typically refers to the specific type of noodle....maybe it's different in other states, idk
@@bloojkl4520 no it isnt lol
I love this dude.
he looks great i mean he looks like hes in his 40s but he doesnt look aged at all he really aged well
I know what you mean. Like, look at Mark. He looks like an old man trying to look young
@@the_gift1828 mark looks his age, but he's good looking for his age. Not young but still good looking
This makes me see Tom less of a conspiracy guy and just a very thoughtful guy.... This was cool!
I've had to pause at 15 minutes just to compose myself a little bit. Ever since I got sucked into the black hole of studying space, extraterrestrial life and human history I've believed we were the result of outside influence and experimentation, almost like rats in a lab but on a much larger scale. Tom's basically just confirmed this for me, which is so gratifying. I really wish I could meet him, work for him in some way and help us as a species progress.
@Littleton how is this the result of drugs? The guy just said he's devoted time to researching the topic of space. Obviously he's come across a few things to make him believe this.
It must really suck not being able to tolerate an opinion that's different than yours.
I’m not sure what they, the US government is allowing you to expose so to speak Tom...but this is a great start. Clones? Easter Eggs...? Your choice of words were not lost here, on us.
I was like wow (definitely worth analyzing his easter egg Jaques Vallee) very cool to see Tom open up.
You have no idea what people mean by easter eggs do you loooool 😂
While interesting. I'm pretty sure he meant the multiple replications of the big head black eyes alien
If I were him and really did know a lot of shit that if he said he'd get killed for no question I wouldn't even give easter eggs. That is Tom though. I'm sure he'd sacrifice himself if it meant the world would know what was really going on to the extent he seems to implicate if it came down to something incredibly serious that he could expose for the humongous benefit of mankind. He loves his children to do much otherwise. Sad he and his wife broke up though, really feelsbad there for me, maybe not for him who knows, I just hope he's happy and continues to live a long happy life.
I wish he would record at least one more studio album with Mark and Travis!
You have your wish sir
When a fanboy becomes a master. Trying to sound like someone else ended up sounding like himself. Beautiful. Moust unapreaseated artist of out time. Soul of blink ,box car and AVA.
Tom you are the most genuine, pure hearted, intelligent, interesting, curious, and necessary person on earth at this lifetime. Such a golden heart. I wish I could meet you one day, you talk about all the stuff I’m obsessed about and can never find anyone to talk to. I wish the world could hear you speak. The world needs more Tom’s ❤️❤️
Tom has always been my biggest inspiration musically. I remember hearing chasing shadows and being on the verge of tears. So happy he figured his voice out again
Really love hearing Tom Delonge talk
Very knowledgeable guy
Damn I straight up relate to Tom so much...
You can truly see the level this man is at in his own being as a person and in his mental state. The guy is far more intelligent than we give him credit for.
Tom has mastered the art of the humble brag
Binging on Blink and Tom as yes they’re back!! Been a fan since the 90s. I’ve always been a fan of Tom and Mark but have to say Tom the most. I don’t know I just based it on when I first saw All the small things video and thought yes he’s my favourite member. Even my friends frowned at me for saying that recently when I went to see Blink 182 live last week.
I see what he means about Bloc Party being punk but also bringing disco beats to their songs. Been a fan of the band for a long time too.
omgggg you’re an OG fan, you lucky bastard😭
What an amazing interview. Tom's the best.
Thank you Tom! that bit of advice was great advice, not just for making music or sports, but life in general. Simplicity is key to happiness.
I love the fact that he’s more open to public these couple of years. Actively posted daily life on instagram and twitter, ava updates, etc. glad to see him laughing too.
Back then he was so introvert, never even touch social media.
What he said about having your own machine to get up and go with and feel the air, I loved that. I've seen this dude play in concert 6 times when I was a kid I'm 31 and he's still cool. I'm not into aliens the way he is, I'm way into the universe and astro physics and such, but this guy is still cool af
This was a really great refreshing watch, thank you! I love Tom and his passion. He takes a lot of heat with a lot of things but I don’t think he’s off the mark at all. I will always resonate with him and his music.
This was awesome 👏
Feel like hes fun to have a long conversation with about just Anything
I really enjoyed this! Awesome to learn so many things about Tom especially on a deeper level.
Awesome to hear that Tom appreciates Bloc Party. Great band and nice to know they are listened too across the pond.
Wow this was a great piece 👍
“I like to watch movies and do things with my hands” best quote ever
Tom always gives positive vibes, despite his aliens obsession etc. he's a great guy
What's wrong with his "alien obsession"?
iknowyouarebutwhatami it can get really annoying, it’s all he talks about
@@aleksandarmarkovic221 Its his passion let him be him.
Despite?
@@aleksandarmarkovic221 I’m pretty certain we all do that with a topic we’re passionate about
How he explained aliens and his interest in it, is exactly how an enlightened person would explain a certain group of people. Is odd he came to conclusion it was aliens behind it all.
Dear Tom, you have such dedicated fan following precisely because you don't care much about fan following. You just keep doing your thing. You're my inspiration for as long as I can remember. Thank you.
This is amazing.
I really enjoyed this I see Tom in a new light now. I like to hear his thoughts ☺️
Where is Tom's family from?
"I say football because I'm European"
"Ad-dee-dus"
Third thing you didn’t know about me is that Aliens are an extremely complex idea that very few people understand but anyways number four
Tom was my childhood idol. Biggest band of the 90s for me then came angels and airwaves 🔥
Tom! Everything you do and are about, I stand with you! Keep doing amazing things man!
I have the problem when Tom puts out new stuff it gets stuck in my brain for days. I wake up singing the song and and it’s glorious.
WTF I DIDNT KNOW HOW INTELLIGENT AND RAD THIS GUY WAS UNTIL NOW... WOW MAD RESPECT YO
An absolute icon ❤️
Tom's over here same as ever, creative and filled with some sort of childlike wonder. Mark is over there writing songs begging people to remember that he's fun loving, or at least was in his youth.
I think Tom was the authenticity variable in Blink, and that's what I miss about them.
Look at Tom so inspirational
Tom, never stop being you.
Great interview ~ Tom is much more than just amazing musican and songwriter of different yet perfectly combined musical genres ~ he's also deep and profound person and highly interesting human being ~ hope to see him one day in flesh ❤️
And he have much cooler voice that Milo from Descendents 😉😁
My favorite artist 💙
I listened to Silent Alarm today and got to
See them perform it in full live. An album that’s been my fav record since I was 10 (25 now) Hearing Tom give his respect is a true show of the love of musical craft
If I could spend one day with someone famous it would definitely and always had been tom delonge.... he's so interesting and a very clever man... understand aliens space and UFOs is a very hard topic.
Love the way tom thinks
Most inspiring guy ever!!!
He has a good point in so much that we are very insignificant in this massive universe. I believe we are dinner somewhat important; most likely just to each other.
I love you mark ..thank you
He's such a cool unique individual.
I love you Tom, I believe you too. I am happy for you, and wish you nothing but the best!
Spot on about Bloc Party. Silent Alarm was such a sick record. All great musicians.
The third and tenth ones are fire. Thanks again Tommy. Atom Willard Ava is still the best music ever
Really found this interesting!
Tom is so cool, love the dude
I'm so thankful you sound like you Tom 🤍 my favorite voice 🥰
this man is my hero.
Tom actually has somewhat of a Midwest accent.
He really doesn't. Like... At all.
a whales vagina
We love Tom!😀
LOVE TOM
I’ve never been into punk music but I find this guy fascinating
Thank you
Just do the “riding in vans with boys” thing
I love you Tom
2:16 is 100% true they actually confirmed that haha “easter egg” love it
How has anything been confirmed?
Yeah "they" have 100% confirmed that there is another dimention where time runs backwards :/
The coke can theory hit me hard!! 👍🏼
love u, Tom❤️
You ate the coolest. I want to hear more about the universe you speak of .I know theres more there
Tom and Bloc Party. My Top 2 favs !!
Wow yes, Silent Alarm is such a great album.
Liked listening to you, good to see you Tom!
