"Remember the time that I spilled the cup, of apple juice, in the hall! Please tell mom this is not her fault!" damn. even at work now and always tearing up whenver I hear that line.
@@Cogsagi I always thought it was a way of giving a lighthearted memory and dropping a sudden mood swing of a line. The first one to me always seemed as a kind of breath of air and the second line reverts back to the point of the song. Just what it seems to me tho. Different takes on it I suppose
@@91Definite It's actually a memory from his childhood. His parents were arguing in their bedroom with the door closed. Mark was standing outside the door listening and he had a cup of apple juice. His parents suddenly opened the door and when he tried to run off he spilled the apple juice.
Someone just started to threaten to hurt himself. It has happened before. He says he hears voices and that this song drowns them out. He's so young, i don't think i could actually ever get over his death. Some things are just too scary. I hope that anyone who hears this song will rethink themselves. Because, they won't die alone, if you want friends you have to search hard, but they are out there. Even if you didn't live long enough to meet them. 'Waiting' just like you.
I never thought I'd die alone I laughed the loudest who'd have known? I trace the cord back to the wall No wonder it was never plugged in at all I took my time, I hurried up The choice was mine I didn't think enough I'm too depressed to go on You'll be sorry when I'm gone I never conquered, rarely came Sixteen just held such better days Days when I still felt alive We couldn't wait to get outside The world was wide, too late to try The tour was over, we'd survived I couldn't wait till I got home To pass the time in my room alone I never thought I'd die alone Another six months I'll be unknown Give all my things to all my friends You'll never step foot in my room again You'll close it off, board it up Remember the time that I spilled the cup Of apple juice in the hall Please tell mom this is not her fault I never conquered, when you came Sixteen just held such better days Days when I still felt alive We couldn't wait to get outside The world was wide, too late to try The tour was over, we'd survived I couldn't wait till I got home To pass the time in my room alone I never conquered, when you came Tomorrow holds such better days Days when I can still feel alive When I can't wait to get outside The world is wide, the time goes by The tour is over, I've survived I can't wait till I get home To pass the time in my room alone
Please tell mom this is not her fault, is the line that saved me, it hit me so hard knowing that my actions would affect the people who actually care about me. Thankyou Blink ❤
Im crying. Not because i feel bad or sad, just because this is so beautiful. One of my most favourite Videos on all RUclips ❤️ I. Love. Blink. For. Ever.
Every time I hear this song I can't help but think of the kid who went to columbine high school who killed himself with this song on repeat after the tragedy at his school. I remember thinking I just want to hug him and tell him it gets better, even though I'd be lying.
yea i guess, i mainly play on a baritone guitar so you'll have to forgive me. I view these verses based on what i hear vs. what is actually written. So i just use a capo to tune myself up until i find the right key
Yeah I haven't actually gone through with it yet :P still pensive about it.. I'm still deciding wether or not I actually want a tattoo. But if I do decide to get one, I'm pretty sure I want to get one with the blink smiley, and quote "tomorrow holds such better days"
Ahh shit homies. I'm working on my blink half sleeve right now. If it weren't for blink, I wouldn't have started playing music, and playing shows. They're the reason music is my passion. And the reason I make jokes about fucking my dad lol. If blink is important to you, go ahead and do it. If they've impacted your life, go for it. If it's a phase, don't waste your money and skin lol
I listen to this song, since the launch of enema of the state, and every fucking time I do, it's pretty sad... I really love this song and everything about it.
You will make it,you can survive,here is hope Here is belief, if nobody else has faith in you i will Sometimes all it needs is one person to have trust in
One day..... nobody will see it coming but, there is a calm that comes with knowing the end is near. It's nobody fault and, just like someone saying "then do it" wouldn't make me do it know.... no words will make it stop. When you have been told by every person that you love that they hate you and don't love you: it's probably not a 'them' issues (in my case). Doesn't matter how I feel or if the reality is different. Me being gone will be a gift. so, why share this here? ...... because, I have 0 friends and this is the only place where I can vent this and know that nobody I know will see it...and nobody that sees this will really care. cathartic? nope. nothing is.
@GingerGuitarist You were implying, that he has no taste, because he hasn't the same opinion as you, as the OP wrote, he finds this version better than the original. You tried to back up your dumb comment, with some "reasoning" that is all invalid, because again, he has his *OWN* opinion. I know you're trying to troll, so please try again.
+Alex Lutz you can't say that shit bc clearly you're not a fan of them. Yeh Arzaylea fked us over but shut up dude. Just chill, can't you at least have respect for artists since they have not done anything personal towards you?
*The true meaning of this song and no Its not about Mark being lonely on tour* The lyrics of the song are based on a letter written by a boy who could not stand to be humiliated at school, then committed suicide. Adam's parents sent the letter to the band, and he wanted the letter to be an inspiration for a song, since he felt like it was no reason of importance to anyone. Blink-182 made the song for the fan, but the ending is altered, saying that Adam survives. Greg Barnes, survivor and witness to the death of his best friend in the Columbine Massacre in 1999, hanged himself a year later while listening to the song. The band was very criticised after that which made Mark Hoppus finding a more "acceptable" explanation for the song.
GlennKokko is katyperrylolol's covers?? the one who actually wrote the acoustics for this song and many others with the real acapella?! Since they got deleted I've always been looking for them
This song was actually not based on a "suicide letter" that was just made up. I'm not sure why they wrote this song, but they no longer perform it due to the title "Adams song" and Dj AM's first name is Adam.
sk8ter4life okay no it wasn't actually based on a suicide, the suicide that I belive people are basing the song on happened in 2000, and the song was on repeat, from what I've heard, Adams song was put out in 1999, so yeah...
Blink-182 once said there was an email sent to them containing Adam's Letter, or his suicide note written to his parents. Upon reading this, the group began to write his song. After going over it, they realized that this was their first "mature" song. It has a serious and sad tone, something that has an impact on someone after listening to it. They realized it was a good song, even if it were very saddening. So it was released in 1999. That same year was the Columbine High School shooting. In May of 2000, a year and two weeks after the anniversary of the shooting, junior Greg Barnes, who witnessed his coach being shot and found out his close friend was killed in the original shooting, committed suicide. His father found him in the garage, hanging, playing this song on repeat. There was no note.
Alejandro López you can still do it in standard tuning but if you're singing it you're gonna have to hear it out and then sing along with the tuning you're in :) but idk this is just something I do with songs.
its both what blondie and alpha said. now a days when mark answers what adam's song is about, he mentions his depression on tour, but back then he said it was about someone who emailed him his suicide note and then committed suicide. he probably likes to only talk about the depression one cause its not as sad as the person who died. songs can have multiple meanings
this acoustic makes the song so much sadder.
+Tailyre Matthews But it compliments the song well. I love this!
Super25Smasher tru tho. nice profile pic btw.
Tailyre Matthews Thanks! I'm really "feeling this".
Super25Smasher omg lol. It's obvious 😅😅
+Super25Smasher lol idk. does it make u feel down?
Love everyone here. We will get through this. It is possible.
I’m not suicidal or depressed but comments like this are what youtube needs. You’re a good person for this
Thanks

Have always loved this song thru highschool. I promise guys that life gets better but only if you make it better yourself.

"Remember the time that I spilled the cup, of apple juice, in the hall! Please tell mom this is not her fault!" damn. even at work now and always tearing up whenver I hear that line.
One of the best line i ever hear.
I always try to understand what he meant when he said that line. I guess he decide to end it right then and there
@@91Definite Means his mom cleaned up the messes he made, and it wasn't her fault before, so this one is no different

I hope you’re okay, 7 years later❤️
Espero te encuentres bien!
Hope you're OK 9 years later 😢
2:50-3:32 such a beautiful progression seriously thank God I know Blink 182
Absolutely
this song will never stop meaning as much as it does to me
same. Reminds me of better times, and by that I mean before, last summer.
@@hunterhass04 just wanna check in on u, how are u doing?

+cyndi Shubert for some reason "whats my age again" had that effect on me when I was 10 years old. probably cause mark is kinda gifted beyond measure.
Let me know if I can help as stupid and cheesy that sounds I do care
I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
I trace the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all
I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone
I never conquered, rarely came
Sixteen just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again
You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault
I never conquered, when you came
Sixteen just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside
The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait till I got home
To pass the time in my room alone
I never conquered, when you came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside
The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait till I get home
To pass the time in my room alone
Please tell mom this is not her fault, is the line that saved me, it hit me so hard knowing that my actions would affect the people who actually care about me. Thankyou Blink ❤
Fucking absolutely beautiful song. It couldn't have been said any better.
Cheers from south El Monte California August 2024 💪🇺🇸

This is a great acoustic version of Adam’s song
I really want to learn how to play this. This song means a lot to me.
Day Man so do it ole buddy
it's easy, D major, A major, B minor, G major. I think, the riff is super simple as well just play it with a capo
isn't this song tuned down?
yea i guess, i mainly play on a baritone guitar so you'll have to forgive me. I view these verses based on what i hear vs. what is actually written. So i just use a capo to tune myself up until i find the right key
Day Man standard Tuning but drop low e to d
This is beautiful. This just made me certain about getting my Blink tattoo
Yeah I haven't actually gone through with it yet :P still pensive about it.. I'm still deciding wether or not I actually want a tattoo. But if I do decide to get one, I'm pretty sure I want to get one with the blink smiley, and quote "tomorrow holds such better days"

Omg I know this is old... but I literally just got that tattoo quote tomorrow holds such better days as my first tattoo back in the spring on my arm
Kira Rezmar I
Just got a LP tattoo a few months ago no regrets, considering getting a blink one as well
Just set up appointment to get mine yesterday!
I didn't need a tutorial to learn this song, I already had the notes in my mind and heart.
this song reminds me of a teacher at school who I miss a lot.
Mark voice his very beautiful.
I'm back after many years. So good.
Nostalgia

Still here crying my eyes out!
Love this song and It's my anthem right now

My tears falling..
My favorite Blink song :)
You will make it,you can survive,here is hope
Here is belief, if nobody else has faith in you i will
Sometimes all it needs is one person to have trust in
The editing is quite good. It's very convincing.
No crying until the end.
Este video me hizo simplemente llorar
So fitting✂️
The saddest song , now even more sad hahaha cool acustic version btw 😂❤❤❤❤🤘
great song, blink nailed this acoustic version
thanks for leaking... original is removed from account user
One day..... nobody will see it coming but, there is a calm that comes with knowing the end is near. It's nobody fault and, just like someone saying "then do it" wouldn't make me do it know.... no words will make it stop.
When you have been told by every person that you love that they hate you and don't love you: it's probably not a 'them' issues (in my case). Doesn't matter how I feel or if the reality is different. Me being gone will be a gift.
so, why share this here? ...... because, I have 0 friends and this is the only place where I can vent this and know that nobody I know will see it...and nobody that sees this will really care.
cathartic? nope. nothing is.
like this better than orignal
GingerGuitarist how exactly?

You know, people are allowed to have different tastes and opinions. @GingerGuitarist

I bet the 21 dislikes were from 5sos fans
not tru. I'm a big 5sos fan and I luv blink too so i don't see ur point
+Tailyre Matthews the point is their fan base is retarded
Ye I like 5sos too but blink are better. Stop stereo typing fo real
+Alex Lutz you can't say that shit bc clearly you're not a fan of them. Yeh Arzaylea fked us over but shut up dude. Just chill, can't you at least have respect for artists since they have not done anything personal towards you?
Seriously? You're telling them to chill? You're the one going crazy and getting butt hurt because of a joke.
Chills
My 20th time listening to this today
AWESOME!!!
RADICAL!!!!
Marks voice is so tight in this original song. I can't say I hate it;p
And he only sang the whole song in one take too 👍🏻
I really don't think he did it in one take. You can hear the edits.
Well I remember hearing or reading somewhere that I think he only did one take for each vocal part that was cut.
si me gustaba o mejor dicho me gusta la cancion adam's song, la version acustica me encanto, esta genial :D
Where can I download this? The acoustic is really good!
Ytmp3
You, are going be ok.
I love that gasm or whatever

Good ass song
Do you have the instrumental?
You'll be sorry when I'm gone.
Could use some piano parts in the background during the chorus.
I laughed the loudest who'd have known?
Wish I could find this on Apple Music

Nice!
The best 🇪🇪
Last song I thought id ever hear..
This song was actually not based on a "suicide letter" that was just made up. I'm not sure why they wrote this song, but they no longer perform it due to the title "Adams song" and Dj AM's first name is Adam.
Mark Hoppus wrote the song because Travis and Tom always had someone waiting for them at home, and he had no one.
David Silva and it was mostly because of the letter. Only a few lyrics were written about the loneliness
No, it was based on a suicide letter. They made the song in his honor
sk8ter4life okay no it wasn't actually based on a suicide, the suicide that I belive people are basing the song on happened in 2000, and the song was on repeat, from what I've heard, Adams song was put out in 1999, so yeah...

What's the source for this?
They invented this thing called mixing

Sounds like he has just cut out the singing part from the original song and added his own acoustic. Still nice
That is what he did you mad noob....
Wow! Are you must be in all the high honors classes!!

COULD ANYONE GIVE ME THE CHORDS?

They're kind of odd, and note the somewhat odd tuning, too.
Tom used Standard D tuning instead of Standard E.
Alejandro López you can still do it in standard tuning but if you're singing it you're gonna have to hear it out and then sing along with the tuning you're in :) but idk this is just something I do with songs.
Alejandro López actually I think they did it in standard live once cause like the tuning sounded different.
Can i sample the start
Chords please!!!!🎸
Bm A G for intro D G Bm G for verse and i think you could do D E Bm and G for the interlude bit but its mainly those chords
sk8ter4life I've always played it as C, G, Am, F.
sk8ter4life C, F, A, F for the verses and pre verses
C, D, A, F for the choruses
bridge is something with C :P

They wrote this song because they got a letter written to them, and that guy committed shicide after sending it :(
It was about their friend from high school who killed himself.
Wrong, it was about Mark being depressed on tour
its both what blondie and alpha said. now a days when mark answers what adam's song is about, he mentions his depression on tour, but back then he said it was about someone who emailed him his suicide note and then committed suicide. he probably likes to only talk about the depression one cause its not as sad as the person who died. songs can have multiple meanings
