I will never unhear that synth part now... Thanks
Same
I probably listened to this song a thousand times in high school, never noticed that part, now it's all I hear!
@DiscoFalcon its like seeing inter dimensional demons.
It sounds amazing!
@DiscoFalcon its like seeing inter dimensional demons.
The guys from Blink-182 are watching this video like:
"Oh, so that's what we did"
Vitor Ferreira No....they knew!
That's why a good producer is worth their weight in gold.
I'm the 182 like
I don't want to ruin the 182 like so i just say to you that i liked the comment.
Dennis Murphy
" a good producer is worth their weight in gold"
So does that mean a good producer is worth less after he's had a dump?
How did I never recognize that synth blended with the harmonies... I can't unhear now lol
Tom Stiles i could kinda hear it, but i always thought it was another guitar track. But i never figured it out.
Likewise! And I had to learn this song for a cover band ... apparently, I didn't listen hard enough.
my mind is blown.
Just had a similar experience with Dammit. Never noticed until recently that there's an organ part being played in the outro of that song and now I can't unhear it either.
they do the same thing on "dammit" and "wendy clear"
This is how I know Rick is the real deal... he can comprehend the musical prowess of legends like Rush or Van Halen, but then he can sit down and appreciate the simple yet catchy music like Blink 182 or Weezer.
It's all relative to time. At the time Van Halen were dismissed by "good music lovers" as a band that resorted to pop elements for a quick buck from "the uneducated kids" too.
@@andrewsparkes8829 i think you got a point Andrew thanks for sharing
Weezer is good
Weezer is not that simple though... They have a lot of complicated stuff...
Thats right. I heard Tom Delonge say that good music isnt about complexity but emotion. I think hes right.
Just found "What Makes This Song Great" with 72 episodes already made.... Looks like they average 15min and episode... That's the next 18hrs of my life sorted!
same here..
I've been kinda working my way backwards through this series. From Deftones to blink-182, this guy covers all of my musical tastes, introducing me to new favorites, and really opening up tracks I thought I had already pretty fully digested. I cannot recommend him enough.
I just started the pilgrimage
But it seems some episodes are missing (taken down?).
@@amedina.mobile theyre all there, they're just out of order in the playlist on his channel. I have a playlist of all episodes in order on my channel
I never heard the synth part in the song before. Now I don't think I will ever not hear it. Great video series. I can't wait for more.
i have a feeling like it operates similar to the many, many spices, seasonings, and reductions which 99% of people do not directly taste when they eat out at restaurants.
Like, it's not that they're unnecessary, and maybe even the "combination" is larger than "the sum of the parts", but I would really be interested if that sort of "filler" which you don't consciously needs to be particularly "high quality". More along the lines of, there needs to be something there to give it some sort of depth and complexity, 50% of which is for the mere sake of complexity itself, and then maybe quality and truly artistic musicians recognize how to fill this in well.
I agree with you, in the sense of "now I hear it and can't unhear", but I do wonder then how it affects the other 99% of people who don't consciously hear it, and thusly, how important it is and if you could get away with filler/low-quality filler--MOST restaurants you eat at.
same here haha
Isn't that Guitar + Whammy ? Always tought it was
Woahhh I never noticed the synth
I've discovered those hidden layers in a bunch of their songs when the cords of my earbuds was breaking
So using misfuntioning head/earphones can be interesting sometimes
Tom’s palm mute is one of the main things that got me into this band.
agree
Same xD
I mean... Palm mute is way older than Tom. He didn't invent not refine it.
@@borek92 no one is saying he invented or refined it dude.. we’re just saying with his guitar tone and his style.. it sounds awesome..
@@borek92 Who's saying that? The fact is he took something that had been around for decades and made it accessible and catchy. Douchebage.
"All you need is 3 Chords and the truth."
the coolest thing about Rick is he does not have any hang-ups about the Highbrow versus Lowbrow. He just articulates what is awesome about things without judgement. Love this guy!
uneedtherapy42 sometimes judgment is good
uneedtherapy42 much agreement!
People LOVE to hate on everything Punk. I still think it is the one genre that has pretty much stayed the same once we moved out of the STUPID Post-Punk era that ruined the continuum. Punk has been at this place of easy catchy rock which people then add their own flair and sometimes those moments are gold.
Listen to Slick Shoes self-titled album. Two guitars were amazing.
A great song is a great song. The more you dig into anything, the more you begin to realize that the concept of, "Simple" is pretty arbitrary and subjective.
Bingo
Rick, did you start this series with this song because you are, in fact, examining.... all the small things... that make a song great?
composerdave68 you, sir, are a genius. really.
Shut up
Boom
@TheRealCritique ...Dumb comment....i hope you realize that now... Just how dumb your comment actually is.... Its not even funny, and very distasteful...
@TheRealCritique ✌
Its all good man, and glad you agree...
Tom revealed his "secret" in a video once. He noticed a pattern by Brian Baker (where one note stays the same, but the root note changes), and he said he writes most of his songs with this ascending/descending root note pattern (think what's my age again). Alot of blink songs follow this pattern, and it's super catchy.
i’m pretty sure it’s labeled as a “drone”
Earnie Ball interview huh?
i really miss jerry finn. what a legend. RIP
littleredguitars2 cool to see you watch rick as well as me haha loved emo earlier man!
Hello there
@@prajwalsadashankar6972 the angel from my nightmare
@@soap9277 the shadows in the background of the mourge
So true man its crazy how much he helped the band.
Rest in peace, Jerry Finn
Such a masterful producer
Go home.
So sad man
That damn C on the synth. After two entire years of playing this song live with friends, you've finally shown me what in the world was going on with those "na's!" Much love, Rick.
I've been listening for twenty years and never noticed it.
This was amazing. Thanks
I can't believe the first episode of this really awesome series is about Blink 182.
Surprise!
maybe cos theyre more influential than your favourite band ！
@@elftower907 nope.
Mike Wazowski what’s your fav band ?
@@elftower907 I don't really have one because my musical tastes range from Blues, to Jazz, to Rock, to Metal. I guess if you considered the concerts I've been to over the years you might have a good idea of the music I like, but in brief, Tom Petty, The Police, Boston, Van Halen, Metallica, Scorpions, Elvis Costello, Elton John, Pink Floyd, Journey, Rush, Rolling Stones, Guns N Roses, Green Day, ACDC, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Beach Boys, Jimmy Buffett, The Cars, Stevie Ray Vaughn, BB King, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Buddy Guy, Ray Charles, Bo Diddley, Eric Clapton, Johnny Winter, Robert Cray, ZZ Top, Molly Hatchet, 38 Special, and the list goes on.
Would love to see this sort of breakdown to Feeling This. It's so much more layered and complex but is just as catchy and memorable. It's one of the most underrated songs of that decade imo.
PS Jerry Finn was a genius.
'All Of This' featuring Rob Smith too...so many layers to that track!
You guys are both so right that album was wonderful
Yeah, that whole album is full of gems
Violence too ❤️
Yes! That's my favorite song of theirs!
I was never able to understand the goosebumps I felt on that 2nd chord in the chorus. This gives me closure and a strangely renewed appreciation for this song.
they always said jerry finn was the 4th member of blink
As a person with 0 technical musical knowledge I have no idea what he's saying, but I think he'ssaying blink is good.
He sure is....he sure is.
the listening skills you learned in school seem to be working
The really cool part of this series is watching someone sit down with the master tapes (files) and point out all the nuance within a song. The technical nitty gritty is just a nice bonus.
I love the idea of this series. Don't get me wrong, I love your other stuff too, but I really like how approachable this series is. It just picks a song and talks about it. I can't wait for more episodes.

Jerry Finn was the perfect man for Blink 182, as were they to him.
honestly maybe Blink would be half decent today if Jerry Finn was still alive. I mean, I definitely think the quality of their songwriting has declined, but more so the production is fucking terrible. Maybe Finn could have taken these sub par songs and made them a bit more palatable. that's just my opinion though, i dont hate on others who enjoy the new stuff. to each his own
REST IN PEACE JERRY FINN
@@SuperSaiyanScandinavianas a fan of skiba era blink & one more time you’re definitely right lol the production, imo, is the only thing that has gotten significantly worse imo
Great analysis! I've also always liked the 1-2 punch of "Adam's Song" segueing into "All The Small Things". It's a perfect transition and mood shift. Very cool. RIP Jerry Finn.
you could say, it’s “all the small things” that make All The Small Things so great
What is amazing about this series is that it makes you realize that “what makes a song great” are the small things you don’t necessarily hear consciously but still pick up unconsciously...
heh
ALL the small things, if you will...
I've never heard the synth before either! Mark's isolated lead-in vocal reminded me so much of the Beach Boys. Blink at their best was all about the arrangement - that was apparent when Mark Trombino worked with them on Dude Ranch. Love how you broke this song down Rick, turns out Blink 182 weren't just three-chord wonders after all. Incredibly interesting video. RIP Jerry Finn.
Ikr? People complaining about a band/song only playing three chords is like complaining about a fancy restaurant meal having only three courses. There's so much more to the music.
Yup. Serious Mike Love vibes that I'd never noticed until they were isolated.
they always said jerry finn was the 4th member of blink
Rest in peace, Jerry Finn
Such a masterful producer
I’m pretty sure it was about this “182 song that a snobby friend of mine said, disparagingly: “It’s got no subtlety, three chord stuff you used to play in the 70s & 80s”.
I hadn’t the musical knowledge to respond, but I’d always known there was a helluva lot more to well done songs of that genre than my classically trained friends ear would let him hear, that I could hear.
Still can’t name it, but Rick Beato does. Thank you, Rick. Way to communicate what your ear & experience picks out as WMTSG? without in any way disembowelling the whole thing. I’d have worried these analyses might destroy the magic, but it does exactly the opposite. Whenever I hear a song that Rick’s done a WMTSG? on, I now enjoy it more!
The real unspoken explicitly lesson is that complexity doesn't always equal great (simplicity doesn't always equal great either).
Knowing the parts you wrote. Little tricks to add interest like the C/F5 and the b9 dissonance go a long way. Keeping the listener engaged without making them feel like they are taking a math test is great.
Great series.
BassasaurusRex brilliant.
Yes and you know what’s funny , you can teach for years on how to record and engineer but you really can’t teach good song writing like that.
The thing I really enjoy about this, is it shows the breakdown of what goes into even a “simple” song that makes it so appealing.
This song isn’t a great representation of blink-182’s full on writing style though for the people who think that they just wrote poppy songs like this. It ties in with the music video which basically shows they were poking fun at the popular boy bands of the time.
It's mostly just a really simple song that had MASTERFUL production and studio work done on it. Not to be corny, but it really is "All the small things" that make this songs sound SO GOOD. I mean, you CAN just play it like one guy, one guitar, without all the extra stuff, but it's that "pixie dust" that makes it so sick. That's what I like so much about music production. I'm a big fan of bands that have no nonsense attitudes that are great too, but when the producer gets to flex their muscles a bit, like in this song, or later Green Day stuff, or even like Def Leppard stuff, it's just really cool when you can hear all the layers and what's really going on. It's too bad it's not so easy to just get the multitracks to these songs so I could just play with them all day listening to all the stuff that was layered in lol.
Blink 182 was so ahead of its time with song structure in pop-punk/punk music
YOU"RE UNMASKING MY CHILDHOOD! I never realized how well produced and intricate some of these details were. (also not a musician lol)
Me: I'd never thought I'd be rocking out to Blink with a boomer
Rick: How about a friend?
LOTR
Aye I could do that
And my axe. That’s a guitar pun; I’ve been drinking.
(Pretty sure Rick is a Gen-Xer, not a Boomer.)
@@pynchon9 indeed. I’m so tired of hearing that as an insult because it’s always aimed at us Gen X’ers. I guess it figures if you look at who’s always saying it. Lol
That final chorus with the fully distorted "Say it ain't so" is such perfect arrangement. You already like the pre-chorus and can sing along to it when it's just a transition piece but in the end it becomes THE chorus and you've already sung it twice so by the third and final time, you just wanna belt it and the song matches the energy. It's really a perfect pop song.
I feel that as musicians, we can easily fall into musical snobbery where we have to only enjoy music that is complex and challenging. It causes us to overlook the brilliance that lies in simple music such as this because the overall musicianship is beginner-level.
The thing is-how many non-musicians know who john petrucci is? Now how many non-musicians know who angus young is?
Lol. Angus Young?! Everyone that grew up in the 80s knew who the hell Angus Young is! Seriously, who didn’t know about AC/DC back then? Couldn’t tell you who John Petrucci is though.
QED - OP’s point proven. Angus Young & AC/DC is musically quite simple (don’t confuse with easy to play or create) but rhythmically and melodically brilliant, hence they are household names to the masses; Petrucci is musically complex but no less brilliant, depending on your point of view, but not widely known by non-musicians.
I think you proved your own point and fell into snobbery.
@@michaelcorcoran8768 that’s the opposite of what he did lol. He acknowledged how massive he is to people who don’t play music versus John Petrucci who’s mostly known to musicians
Jerry Finn was the 4th member of Blink-182. Anything they released after his death was a different band.
I have listened to Blink 182 since the beginning. Yet I never realized how complex even their appealingly simplest songs were. This was an enjoyable watch.
The face Rick makes when he digs something is the best! Music/life can be fun. Thanks for the reminder Mr. Beato
W3lfar3 nah music is boring
ALG haha 10/10 for effort
I've listened to this song and this album hundreds of times since I was ten years old. I've played it on guitar and covered it in bands, played it in shows, etc. I have literally never heard the synth part before now. And I'll never unhear it.
Tom DeLonge may seem like a goof who writes simple guitar parts but his arranging is actually pretty genius. Especially with Angels and Airwaves. I didn’t know some of this stuff was even in this song and this isn’t even one of my favourite blink songs but this is pretty awesome.
I just found out from your new video that this was the first in the series. And I have to tell you, after 23 years, this is extremely gratifying and emotionally vindicating to me. I had some musical role models who told me that if something is harmonically simple it isn’t good. Specifically with this song. And specifically with this song, hearing the F5/C and the octave guitar part, I knew they were wrong. Thank you.
Dude I 100% agree. I'm huge Blink fan and never picked up the synth until now. Simple can be amazing just ask The Beatles lol. Side note, my moms maiden name was Borish don't see that name too often. Any family in Philly?
@@go_ham_sam9902 Nope, no family in philly. I’m in Pittsburgh though. My family came here from Scranton about 1930 and Poland not long before that.
@@jakeborish3597 that's crazy same time frame and region from my great grandparents. Small world for sure
That's why I always liked Blink 182 - it only reminds punk but is composed like a masterpiece--..
Basically it is like how much fun can you have with just 3 chords featuring the brilliance of Jerry Finn
Tom: Na na na na na na na
Rick Beato: This is deep
I first learned about harmonies in high school listening to All the Small Things. My CD player’s headphone got partially pulled out and only certain channels became audible. I was like “Why is Mark singing something completely different? Ohhhh that sounds nice together”
Hearing Mark's harmony is a game-changer. I never noticed it until the first time I watched this.
It just sounds soooo late 90s, which makes me happy.
Maybe bcos it was late 90s.....
@@rhysbertrand8903 so were a lot of songs that don't sound like it
Been a fan of them for 20 years and never knew their was a synth in that chorus, wow lol you also gotta wonder how much of these little intricate adds, harmonies, etc were suggested by Jerry Finn, I think he really was the key ingredient.
PLEASE DO THE ADVENTURE FROM ANGELS AND AIRWAVES. YOULL FIND A LOT IN THAT SONG!
So sad
This 100% true
I’d pay to see that video
PLEASE DON'T YELL!
I'm no fan of Blink-182, but this is sick! I really enjoy how you broke down the arrangement and I can't wait for more videos in this series.
Kade Kalka Me too, so not a Blink fan. Totally agree.👍👍.
NOFX. Now, that is a different story.
I 'm not a fan of the whinny teenage voice, but catchy tune, agree on the great break down of the song, now just pick some better songs :)
That's because you are either too old or too young for this band. People in my age group get it. It was a time period for sure.
Java Devil that's literally why I like Toms voice. It's obnoxious but catchy. And now it's deeper and unique
Yeah I get that, but its like a whiny rich kid . Most singers I like are whiny but have more swagger, like Tuk from the Biters , I love the teenage angst .
Thank you mister Rick. I have never listen to this song like you did. Perfect analyse.
It is nice to listen to someone who knows what he is talking about and speaks it with all his heart. Respekt mr. Rick.
Thanks Rick...Blink 182 is heavily underrated
Not true. Blink 182 is by far very popular for a lot of people.
@@gabrielpaiva9070 I think what he means is that people dismiss Blink's musicianship and generalize them as nothing more than a pop phenomenon.
Blink 182 is great. So funny how the pop punk and alt pop of the 90's was just spit on by critics and scenesters, only to be replaced by a decade of gray dirges from the likes of Puddle of Mudd and Nickelback. I remember hearing (and learning to play) great pop radio from Third Eye Blind, Everclear, Cake, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Marcy Playground, Weezer, and Greenday. A lot of it still sounds different and inspired even today.
On a mostly unrelated topic, I've been hoping to get your take on Debussy, the concept of "harmonic planing", and his disregard for certain harmonic rules.
The Meme Wizard Blink-182 is 2000s...
blink 182 released 3 albums including this one in the 90s Delphox
Fergus Clayton Enema of The State was essential part of 2000s culture!
The Real Delphox 616 you are also correct :) they're as popular as ever even now too
MegaCrasherMusic How dare you?
Jerry Finn was a top producer, you din't mention the the great mixing on this album, which at the time was unheard for punk bands. Damn, Blink-182 was the band that made me in love with music, you should check out their 2003 Self-Titled album, its has really dark feel to it.
I've just discovered this channel and I feel like I've been looking for this type of video all my life. I LOVE it when tracks are taken apart like this
Hearing Mark's vocals here is such a distinctive sound that we get much more clearly on later albums.
My grandma wants you to know she agrees that bringing back the nana's was masterful arrangement, Rick
I can’t stop hearing that synth part now
Just discovering this series. You are awesome Rick! I am learning a ton. Btw, how did you get the stems for these tracks? They sound way too clean to be just isolated.
Almost exactly a year later, and this still has to be my favorite "what makes this song great?" A song I never thought twice about, pretty much ignored, and I keep coming back to watch this video to catch the subtleties in the arrangement. Well done.
Great video Rick! Really a step up in the production, way more enjoyable to watch this rather than the raw cell phone recorded rants. Brings it to a different level. Great idea for the series man!!! looking forward to see it all. You shood do don't stop believing here, even tho every muso is so over this tune by now
I am so impressed by the quality in this video more people need to make content this good
You’re probably my favourite youtuber just for this series, it always lets me hear and listen to music differently and it is really teachfull as well!
The music is fairly basic although I find the structuring and effectiveness captivating. It's like the perfect things that you need in a really good song simplified to the point where it sounds good in a punk rock band. I think this is what made a band like Blink -182 so good. There is some really deliberate complexity in their music, implemented at the perfect moments, yet you can learn how to play these songs as a beginner on guitar. To me , that is genius songwriting.
Yeah.. its all the small things ;)
If you listen to Dammit off Dude Ranch, I always picked up on this awesome countermelody part in the final chorus that is a rock organ and it really sends the song off. I love that Blink hid some of those cool key parts in their music.
I love that this series starts with Blink-182's All the Small Things! Teach us more about all the Small things that make music great!
For over 20 years i thought my ears played tricks on me because i was so sure about hearing some sort of piano in this chorus. Thank you so much!🥹
The synth part is one of my top 5 all time favorite parts of any song.
OMFG.
This series might be your best RUclips idea yet, Rick.
Thank you for making it, I'll eagerly wait for more episodes.
Would you consider doing a track by Mastodon? I thought they've got LOADS of interesting stuff going on all the time.
After hearing and playing this song for 20 years, I realised recently (when I was recording a backing track for this song) that the muted part in the intro actually goes up to the A. It's weird that no one ever notices that.... Including me for 20 years
This was so great. I have listened to this song probably a million times, and have played it in bands probably 5,000 times, spread across different instruments, and I never noticed so much of what you point out in this video.
Really great stuff. Looking forward to catching up on the rest of this series.
Classic example of a song that is the sum of its parts. Super simple to play but its so well put together the melody and the hooks are so infectious.
One of the Great Wonders of the Universe ... How does Rick keep a straight face when saying "Enema of the State" !
Great content. Knowledge is power and with those insights you let me understand that even those “simple” pop-rock songs can have something great happening beneath. I’ll listen more actively from now on, thanks Rick!
Like Shrek said, "layers." :-)
Yeah, this is one of those songs I really like, by a band I don't think about much otherwise. It was a nice object lesson.
Massimiliano Bianchi true!
Rediscovering these videos this year but I can honestly say I really enjoy the content, keep up the outstanding work!
On the final final chorus the drums kick up a notch too with some more cymbal action, and that always give me chills.
OMG this series will be the best thing on YT!
Rick, please be very nice and carry on with this even if the videos are demonitized.
Two things,
1
If you got the tracks from somewhere we can get also, would be great to pass that info.
2
Do songs that are not great to! Explaining why they failed ;)
Their tunes were catchy as hell and a lot of fun, very nice progressions and execution, great band!
this is a great series you do...thought id start from the beginning and watch them all. thanks for doing these
I've heard this song a million times without noticing the synth line. Incredible.
Love the series, great video Rick!
Damn, there is no way I would have ever recognized that synthesizer in the chorus! ...mabey by using 800 bucks-headphones 🤔
For you to be able to isolate individual tracks really makes it magic.
I was done with this kind of music in 8th grade but this band really surprised me. I used to listen to Cheshire Cat in 6th grade on a mix tape my friends older brother made for me. I loved it and the skits were hilarious. But I never see them becoming what they did. Really not my thing but crazy to see that giant success come from that band
This video was an awesome breakdown! Thanks for the amazing content as always.
Ps. The production on this video looks incredible! Keep it up =)
Great idea Rick! I look forward to future installments.
This is a series i been looking for a long time! Thanks so much!
Great analysis and very informative video. Really cool work!
Seriously??
These dudes were my first love, didn't think I'd see you talking about them though.
It might be because this band shaped my ear the earliest and most, but it's interesting to hear you talk about the F5/C and the like as "dissonances"-- now that I know a bit more about music, I just think of them as "second inversion power chords" (5th in the bass). Maybe you mean dissonant as in you think the F note sounds like it wants to resolve to the E (Cmaj)?
Anyway, it is interesting to point out the m9th interval as the "tugging the heartstrings" part--totally agree, and Tom of blink-182 did that a lot, even more obviously on some of his guitar choruses--he would be strumming an "octave chord" on the tonic, and then move the root down a half step, creating that m9th in your face and implying a progression that started I-V
Dissonant as in the note F wants to resolve down a halfstep to E.
Jack McCabe ah I meant E, yep you're right, edited
I know you probably have a hundred other songs on your list for this series. But if I may suggest another specifically from Blink, blog about "I miss you". I love how the guitars and Bass track have dissonance between each other. Other than that I have just subscribed. This is an amazing video and a great idea. Thank you.
A few years back I was shooting a wedding, late into the reception the groomsmen wanted to play this for the newly married couple but they had no one to sit in on drums. I drum, so I offered to help. I had never heard the song until the groom's brother played 30 seconds of it right there on his phone. I did pretty good all things considered, but now I hear this breakdown and isolations, I wanna "do-over"! Rick, I don't know a chord from a note but these breakdowns are addicting to watch, thank you for them!
Rick..I love these videos. From 7:10-7:22 I hear the alternating C-G change to B-G while backing progression actually changes to C-F-G. It’s a nice “small thing” I thought I’d mention. Makes the “marching-drum bridge part” so cool.🙏
Loved this! Sort of a guided deconstruction/reconstruction of a song.
I've always heard that palm muted part as an "A" chord muted rather than just the G chord. awesome video series!! keep em coming!
Rick, I love this video series - so many details that I never noticed at first in these songs!
I thought I was being trolled when I heard the synth. Had to open the song on Spotify to confirm.
yea. and now i can't unhear it. it's weird how our brain works. before this video i couldn't hear it and after this i always hear it
mind blown
I have a couple of request for you Rick...
Blurry - Puddle of Mudd
No One Knows - Queens of the Stone Age
Bullets with Butterfly Wings - Smashing Pumpkins
Everlong - Foo Fighters
Cult of Personality - Living Color
Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground - White Stripes
Peace Sells - Megadeth
When Doves Cry - Prince
I'm all for Smashing Pumpkins, although the band is nice too.
Great choices
bEASToUTtHEbOX holyshit those are my fave songs
Now don’t kill me...
Vanilla twilight - Owl City
Agree, No One Knows is a fantastic song.
This is my new favorite RUclips channel. Love your breakdowns. I should have found you years ago... 🎼
Everytime I watch these videos and revisit the songs he talks about if find a new appreciation for he music I love!
