relates to not only Blink themselves , but also all of us can relate in regards to lost friends, or friends that live so far away you take them for granted
Not going to lie, this made me ball like a baby. Between this and the new It dies today song, its been a few days of some crazy nostalgia. All the feels!
Yeah, just a 40 year old dude crying my eyes out at 7 AM on a Saturday. It's crazy how 20+ years of listening to these guys, seeing the vertical slice of their lives that we, the people, are allowed to see, only for them to come through with something that hit so deep and hard, it's almost impossible not to feel like you really know them far better than you do. Sheesh.🥺
If you know the backstory of this song, it makes much different emotions. I was on their concert 4 days ago in Prague and it was one of my biggest life experience! 🔥 I was jumping, screaming, singing and crying by joy! It brings me back 16 years ago when i was riding bmx, skinny jeans from ladies store, swedish shirt and blinks in my ears. So happy that they're alive and together again. 🙏
@@OhrionReacts I find it absolutely awesome that we get to talk with you folks man. Thank you for your content and making my days better. You sir are one of my favorite human beings 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
@dustinlawhon1822 you're way too kind Dustin 🙏🖤 appreciate the kind words. So glad you're enjoying everything and watching the vids. Love comments like these. Thank you!
@@OhrionReacts Thank you as well brother man. I'm currently in the process of giving this RUclips a shot and watching videos like yours and others just give me that extra push. I appreciate you being you. Much love and appreciation my guy!!
Absolute tearjerker on so many levels. I especially love opening/first part of the first verse, I don't see a lot of ppl talk about it. One of my regrets as I've gotten older is looking back and realizing I've been the one to break away from friendships and close doors I should've left at least a little open. And some of those ppl i wish i had closure with have passed in unfortunate ways. This song resonated me on more levels than any other song has. And in general as a blink fan it hit hard too.
It’s the most perfect love letter to each other and to their fans. They’ve grown up and they know what the world can do to them. We are all characters in their movie. This is perfect.
i’m only 19, so obviously i didn’t see them in their prime, but this band has been so impactful my life and seeing them live at the lowest point was the best thing that could’ve happened to me. but fuck man this song broke me
Leave it up to blink to bring out tears in even the strongest of men, this band has connected so many hearts, helped so many through depression, loss of loved ones and so much more. Thank you for reacting to this.
This song and this entire album are amazing. This is one of the few songs that makes me cry along with Eric Clapton- Tears In Heaven and Johnny Cash- Hurt.
First time listener here, and love your work. This song is phenomenal. I have listened to it SOOOO many times already and I absolutely love it. Cannot wait for 10/20 and will be tuning into your stream!
I am a dedicated blink boy! Blink runs through my fucking veins! All time favorite band and knowing all the history of with them.... THIS SHIT HIT HARD!!!! what a beautiful song, lyrics, sound, and video!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤🖤🖤
dude i just gotta say your honest reaction to a band that you clearly loved growing up is so relatable and contagious! you are awesome bro keep doing you!
Grew up listening to blink 182 and still listen to them daily. This song is emotional as hell to me, when I hear blink it takes me back to my childhood, I hope they never quit making music
They used the literal visual backgrounds to show that they have a background together (long history pun). It was an amazing song. Only time can provide enough time for this song to develop into the sentimental bomb it is.
This song literally hit me right in the heart. This came out on my birthday September 21 which made it more special and I was literally was watching it and seeing my younger years as my childhood and teenager years pass by with the background they were putting on and I cried my eyes out 😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This song hits different! Big blink fan all my life, just saw them in Berlin last weekend and cried my eyes out. This song completes the circle. Greets from germany ❤
It’s awesome that a band what 30 years in, got back together, went on tour sold out, headlines festivals and sounds better than ever, and then literally drops a love letter to the band and for the fans and throws out every iconic set over the last decades. It was a song for them and for us and it’s a classic Blink song. So few bands especially pop punk and from the 90s can come back and instantly hit. It shows how incredible they are, we are used to the old 70s/80s legacy acts being around forever but Blink is the genX millenial version and so often a band at this point can’t put out anything matching their older stuff. But you could slot this song on any album post dude ranch and it would fit. Yet it would only work now in 2023. I’m so happy we get this as a fan
Great response! Great seeing Travis doing backing vox and getting fully involved. Im kinda full circle with this song. From day one to now. What. An. Amazing. Journey - and this is why i love 182. And yes, i creid (soppy bast4rd i know) but hey, idk. Peace 🤘🏻
My mother, who has for a long time been very indifferent and sometimes even opposing to Blink 182 and their music, she sat in my car during a drive as i played this without telling her who or what it was. She sat quietly, and i thought she was once again being indifferent. Until the end, at which point she said "That song was beautiful. Sad, but beautiful. Have you called your friends? You need to. Because someday, they will be all you have." ❤
In the song it seems that at the beginning Tom Delonge refers to his returns and departures from or to the band when he says in the song strangers from strangers to brothers (when he met them) from brothers to strangers (their returns and fights) it could be
This is probably one of the best songs blink has ever made since their self titled album. Neighborhoods was okay, but it wasn't anything like this. Every time I listen to this song I fucking cry. Knowing the bands history and all the problems they faced, only to see them come back together again and mend those broken friendships. Tom and Mark were born to sing together, and Travis was destined to be their drummer. Such a phenomenal band..
I remember sitting on my bunk bed when i was younger with a cd player jamming to take off your pants and jacket and the self titled religiously...... NOw im 34.....Wow time flies so much and I still love this band! These guys are the life blood on my generation!
😭 watching you react the way we all did the first we heard it 🫶 the first time I started crying immediately at the “sickness and airplanes” line, but it was because my knee jerk thought was that they were referencing major tragedies that took place during our generation (Covid and 9/11), which still made the line impactful under that assumption 😢
@@OhrionReacts It's shame they didn't played it live. I saw them live few days back and they absolutely nailed it, a whole stadium sang. I got goosebumps when they played Adam's song and Miss you live. If they would play this song tho, damn, that would be ultra deep hit.
Woah I'm from Germany.Hello xD . I was hearin this song yester yesterday... This Song is sooo emotional and a Masterpiece and a good reminder of good old times ! I said it in annother react... In several years , my best friends, and me , are sitting on a veranda , chillin , drinking a cold glass of beer, smoke a good steak ,thought of the good and bad things in our life , HEARING THIS SONG! And then .. we get much older , die , got dead , and then... in heaven . dancing with Tom on the stage just to fyyck of God ! xD
This song hits to hard to home. About friends. My best friend of my hole life died a month after his birthday during 2020. He was my brother on stage with my band. We have been on and off active but next year we are doing a small run of shows. This song tears me up. But I know he is hurting anymore
I really love this song. If you’ve followed them since their early days to listening to them now, it’s hard not to get emotional especially when you’re a big fan of the band.
Contrast this song with +44's *"No, it Isn't."* Song Mark & Travis wrote after the breakup, directed right at Tom & blaming him for Blink's breakup. Fast forward to today, and it's come full circle. Glad they're back together, it's amazing to see the 3 of them making music again.
Damn this makes me miss my Blink Bro from high school, we were 2 big blink fans and tried to form a blink tribute band, just couldn't find a drummer, we shared the same Bday and everything, he was my best bro and we fell apart, haven't seen him in 10 years, Miss you Jacob Bro
In hindsight, when they got back together for Neighborhoods, it felt forced, like they felt obligated to do it. Seems like now they are genuinely happy to be making music together again. This shouldn't discount what they did with Skiba though. Nine was a phenomenal album, and I still maintain the option that Skiba's vocals where better suited for them than Tom's. Then again it's Tom's nasally vocals that gave them their sound really.
Thank you so much for that reaction, like and sub from Hamburg, Germany :) I hope you like this. I don’t mean to just plug my content and do that stuff for myself mostly, I just like to leave that where I come across people that like the song as much as me :)
SMASH that 👍 FOR THE B.S. BLOCKED VIDEO.. cause it sucks! But full album review here www.patreon.com/ohrionreacts
I mean you did steal their video 🤷♂️
The fans needed this just as much as the band did...what an amazing love song.
Couldn't say that better myself
Facts
I just saw your same comment on another channel and was so confused for a second lol
@@kylebanks13 gotta let em know ;)
So absolutely true!
They stayed together, for the kids inside all of us ❤
Best comment right here ❤
Bruhh 🙏🖤
Duuuuuuuude.
Who’s cutting the onions in here??? 😢
This comment legit brought a tear to my eye
If you're a longtime Blink fan, play +44's "No It Isn't," then follow it up with this. Feels like parents reconciling.
Grown men realizing it's ok to not just have love for each other...but express it. More of this is needed in the world.
relates to not only Blink themselves , but also all of us can relate in regards to lost friends, or friends that live so far away you take them for granted
Most definitely 🙏 I hope it helps a lot of people
You nailed it… feels like we just witnessed a classic. Can tell the first time you even hear the song that’s rare.
Glad you enjoyed this one homie 🙏🔥
i’m binge watching reaction videos to make sure everyone loves this as much as i do. it is perfect
You're the bleghst Rachel! 🙏🖤 hope you enjoyed this one
I have been too
Me too
Stay away from fantano lol
Not going to lie, this made me ball like a baby. Between this and the new It dies today song, its been a few days of some crazy nostalgia. All the feels!
You're not the only one homie 🙏🖤
Long time blink fan since the 90s, to +44 to Angels and Airwaves to Boxcar Racer I love these musicians. This song hit home
Hell ya 🙌🔥
Hearing this after wrapping up a huge part of my life hit me hard cause it made miss all those faces
❤❤
I LOVE that Travis was in on the vocals!
clocked this!! now I wanna hear him sing more

I feel that... I know one friendship I feel the same on this topic. Def makes me want to reach out and fix it..🖤
Damn.. This song hits home, chills
Smacked us around for sure
It’s the most perfect love letter to each other and to their fans.
They’ve grown up and they know what the world can do to them.
We are all characters in their movie.
This is perfect.
Everything about this song, lyrics, melody, performance, and the video feels like its aimed to make us tear up 😅
Haha for sure
i’m only 19, so obviously i didn’t see them in their prime, but this band has been so impactful my life and seeing them live at the lowest point was the best thing that could’ve happened to me. but fuck man this song broke me

I’m not crying. You’re crying 🤘🏼🖤
Made me tear up at work. So much nostalgia from this.
This song and this entire album are amazing. This is one of the few songs that makes me cry along with Eric Clapton- Tears In Heaven and Johnny Cash- Hurt.
Man, I missed Tom’s songwriting. Such a great tune.

I can't stop listening either 🙏🖤 thanks for watching my friend! Welcome :)
I cried, like a baby.
I am a dedicated blink boy! Blink runs through my fucking veins! All time favorite band and knowing all the history of with them.... THIS SHIT HIT HARD!!!! what a beautiful song, lyrics, sound, and video!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🖤🖤🖤🖤
🙌🖤 hell ya dude
dude i just gotta say your honest reaction to a band that you clearly loved growing up is so relatable and contagious! you are awesome bro keep doing you!
All those backgrounds brought lots of memories, when that warped tour one appeared I almost felt something breaking inside.
Grew up listening to blink 182 and still listen to them daily. This song is emotional as hell to me, when I hear blink it takes me back to my childhood, I hope they never quit making music
blink needed this song. The fans needed this song. It just feels right. Nice reaction as always man
They smashed this one out of the park. Best comeback song ever. Ripped the bandaid right off. FUCCK
This song hits on so many levels
I'm still crying
This song hit hard. Glad they're together again!!
Blink 182 ❤ i missed them guy's so much! this so awesome i can't wait to hear the rest of the album
It's gonna be a good'r !
I’ve been watching reaction videos for 2 days now and STILL can’t get through the song/video without ugly crying. 90’s kids needed this so much!!! 😭😭😭
yeah blink hit a home run with this one. you can tell they put their hearts into it and it’s not just a cash grab. love it so much
They used the literal visual backgrounds to show that they have a background together (long history pun). It was an amazing song. Only time can provide enough time for this song to develop into the sentimental bomb it is.
One of the most respectful, honest and best reactions out here on YT!
Some of the greatest band to ever walk in our generation for sure,i teared up as well….i remember grandma
the brilliance of a Tom Delonge is just perfect.
Yesss! Made me tear up at work. So much nastalgia from this.
Right in the feels. Lyrics are powerfull in this one
This song literally hit me right in the heart. This came out on my birthday September 21 which made it more special and I was literally was watching it and seeing my younger years as my childhood and teenager years pass by with the background they were putting on and I cried my eyes out 😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

35 years old ass me seeing all the backgrounds from all their works and reminiscing the old times brings tears to my eyes.
My all time favourite band from my child hood. This hit the feels
So many memories 🥲🥲🥲
First time I heard it I ugly cried. I still cry when I hear it. We saw them in Atlanta in July they were amazing.
Dude I still remember when they were at their peek... they were so fuckin iconic man... it's weird how much times gone by and things have changed..
This is probably one of the best songs blink has ever made since their self titled album. Neighborhoods was okay, but it wasn't anything like this. Every time I listen to this song I fucking cry.

Wouldn't miss it for the world

Do I have to die to hear blink182 come back again, this song hits so hard, so good ❤❤❤
Good song. Even better if you understand the lyrics and the band.
Yup!!!

Welp, I'm crying again
might be my favorite blink song ever, don't @ me, also I love the subtle eyebrow raise every time a reactor realized Travis was singing
What a f@cking great song!!! I can't get enough of it.
That’s the exact same reaction I had. I just said the F word and sat there with so much feeling. Nice to see you get that too
Sooooo much emotion 🖤 thanks for checking out the review / reaction my friend!
Not much to say other than great video/review man, like many other long time fans for the last 20-25 years, fantastic song, words don’t do it justice.
Words don't do justice 😅 this was so sick. Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed it
Saw their show in San Diego in June. It was fantastic!!
So jealous
It’s okay. You can weep. We won’t judge you (cause most of us have).
🙏🖤
I really love this song. If you’ve followed them since their early days to listening to them now, it’s hard not to get emotional especially when you’re a big fan of the band.
We needed 😢❤❤❤
cant. stop. crying.
Im only 25 blink havebeen my favourite band for as long as i can remember. These lyrics really hit hard 😢
When music has gotten so bad this is amazing shit by my fav band all time. Blink is saving humanity
Contrast this song with +44's *"No, it Isn't."*
Song Mark & Travis wrote after the breakup, directed right at Tom & blaming him for Blink's breakup. Fast forward to today, and it's come full circle.
Glad they're back together, it's amazing to see the 3 of them making music again.
This is I miss you part 2 and I'm here for it
Damn this makes me miss my Blink Bro from high school, we were 2 big blink fans and tried to form a blink tribute band, just couldn't find a drummer, we shared the same Bday and everything, he was my best bro and we fell apart, haven't seen him in 10 years, Miss you Jacob Bro
You nailed this! 🤘🏻🖤 🐇
We needed this…
Love it!
Great song! One of the greatest bands ever! 🤘

I wish Matt was still in it to. Would have accepted that. But I'm glad things worked out.
Just like a One more light from Linkin park 🔥
This song fucked me up. They don’t realize how much we also needed this song 💕💕💕🥹🥹
And Travis had a singing part, did any of you catch it??
I was never a blink-182 kid, but omg this hits to the absolute core
Thank you so much for that reaction, like and sub from Hamburg, Germany :) I hope you like this. I don’t mean to just plug my content and do that stuff for myself mostly, I just like to leave that where I come across people that like the song as much as me :)
Adam’s song vibes
It makes sense to all of us as we get older.
It may be just me, but the end almost sounded like Down from them as well which just tugs on the heartstrings even more for me 😭😭😭
eu não tô chorando, vocês que estão chorando 🥲🥲🥲
I wasn't ready for this 😔
