You can tell Tom is respecting the fuck out of Skiba. He sings Skina’s songs as well as he possibly can, without adding his usual “Tom-isms” to them. He wants to do it right and I fucking love it. Mad props to them all.
True that, he even uses the same light green guitar every time they play a song that was written with Matt to give tribute to his signature neon-green guitar.
Nobody seems to mention that Tom looks very young for his age and definitely got in shape for this tour. Way more energy than 2012 for blink especially from Tom. They are literally having a golden era right now it’s so cool to see. The spirit is and appreciation is so much higher now.
They are looking healthy, they're drug free and Travis doesn't drink or anything else. He's been clean s sober since plane accident where her was the only survivor!
Finally seeing them live this tour and in person was incredible. They look, and sound great. They are having fun, which is the most important thing. God I love these guys.
@@pedroscruiserSurprisingly, if you listened to the California album, you'll hear Angels and Airwaves intro syth on most of the songs. Especially on the deluxe version.
It's crazy hearing this considering I used to sing all of Skiba's songs in Tom's voice as a joke and this is exactly the way I imagined they would be like. We truly live in a simulation.
Thats not entirely fake... las year Matt was asked if he was still in the band and he said he didnt know because he hadnt talk to mark or travis in a while...
Thanks for these songs! Tom is great as Matt and Matt was really doing his best. I loved it, met the trio incl. Matt a couple of years ago. I really think he did good. Love Blink since 1998.
@@methrecovery6922 I meant the way he sings these songs when I said "Tom is great as Matt". I prefer Tom over Matt. Nevertheless I like both albums with Matt as well. But then again I like all Blink albums.
Красавчики, сколько всего произошло в мире, а Blink-182 все те же и всё лучше! Том, ещё блин, вернулся, наконец-то, это радует - настроение хорошее 🤟🏼 :):)
Part of what made blink so great was the connection with mark and tom, and we know that their friendship wasn’t was very strong after the first hiatus, or even after box car racer in 2002. But now, they are back for good and their friendship is going strong!
From what I read (which was other fans speculating on social media lol) they were only going to play songs they made together and skip the Skiba songs. Which saddened me because they made great music together. It's really good to see Tom playing some of those songs. I hope they are able to keep the peace and harmony they’ve been having as a band and as friends lately.
The last time I was in Coachella it was 115° and that was setting up a fireworks show with Zambelli fireworks, but I wish I could have made it to see blink!!!
I think people didnt like California (deluxe songs included) and NINE bc there was no tom and the guitars felt off, im glad ppl like when tom sings the matt songs considering i genuinely like some of the skiba songs especially darkside
I thought that too. I think they wouldn’t disrespect Skiba like that though, since they’re friends. Even though thatd be awesome, I feel like that might also be a slap in the face lol
This just makes me want them to remake California, and NINE with Tom. I think Matt Skiba did well with blink, but would still be nice to have both versions

Wow.. Tom actually did really nice in this. His harmonization with Mark is totally insane!
That's always been my favorite thing about Mark and Tom. They've always had great harmony
@@anthonybornemann3659especially during the dude ranch, enema and takeoff era. Their voices contrasted perfectly
👌🤘 I was Surprised he did very will even though it is Mark song and Melody they both did Awesome.
This version is great. They sound so together during this performance.
You can tell Tom is respecting the fuck out of Skiba. He sings Skina’s songs as well as he possibly can, without adding his usual “Tom-isms” to them. He wants to do it right and I fucking love it. Mad props to them all.
Do they play any other Skibas era song tho? I think its only bored to dead
@@edgarberistain112 They also do Cynical.
He sent Skiba a private note thanking him for his time in the band
True that, he even uses the same light green guitar every time they play a song that was written with Matt to give tribute to his signature neon-green guitar.
They totally wrote this song before Tom left the band last time. You can tell this song was wrote for toms voice.
Nobody seems to mention that Tom looks very young for his age and definitely got in shape for this tour. Way more energy than 2012 for blink especially from Tom. They are literally having a golden era right now it’s so cool to see. The spirit is and appreciation is so much higher now.
Yeah. All about Tom is the best we’ve seen since pre neighborhoods. He really seems to be in it for the right reasons this time!
They are looking healthy, they're drug free and Travis doesn't drink or anything else. He's been clean s sober since plane accident where her was the only survivor!
@@Izzi1967 not fully true - Travis wasn’t the only survivor. But yeah! Looking goo!
Felt this way a few years back seeing angels
Finally seeing them live this tour and in person was incredible. They look, and sound great. They are having fun, which is the most important thing. God I love these guys.
Toms "fading faaaast" is so fucking epic, adds another level to the song IMO
Exactly thought the same
Don’t lie, it sounds like complete shit. Dude is not holding a note for anything. He’s never been good at singing sustained notes
@@LukasEverdingwell you thought wrong cause it sounds fucking terrible. He can’t hold the note for shit.
100%! Take nothing away from Matt, the original is epic, but a re think with Tom would be crazy. Full circle
i’ve been thinking the same thing
I'm happy because tom also wants to sing this song, i hope that in the future there will be blink-182 collaborating with matt skiba
they should tour with Alkaline trio and bring Matt on stage for some songs
Love that Tom agreed to perform some Matt songs. I loved California when I came out in 2016. That was good summer
i would never expected in 2016 for Tom to come back & sing this 😭
@@durkiojackson3766SAME. BUT I'M GLAD HE DID 😭🙌
One of the best summers of my life. But Bored to Death actually reminds me more of the summer of 2017.
this song with tom delonge would fit in any angels and airwaves album or even neighborhoods.
How lol
I don't agree at all. This sounds nothing like those albums and wouldn't fit in. It's an "okay" song but not up to those standards.
remember chasing shadow from AVA?
@@KidAMRadioYou're completely delusional
I would say neighborhood's maybe, but not ava
Tom was born to sing for Blink 182. His voice and Marks blend so well.
Ngl this one was a tad rough for Tom
Wow i love that riff tom added at 3:20 they should record this version in the studio
Sounds like an AVA riff. It went well in this song.
@@pedroscruiserSurprisingly, if you listened to the California album, you'll hear Angels and Airwaves intro syth on most of the songs. Especially on the deluxe version.
You can tell that Tom really enjoys playing the song
Cept that tiger in a tree lyric… so dumb lol
He recognizes it as a great song and is proud of Mark for writing it
Never would have thought he'd play a blink song he didn't write
@@L3WIS97it's about paying respect to Matt Skiba. It doesn't matter that he didn't write it.
@@Freiheit1232You’re dumb lol
tom is killin it 🤘 best he’s ever sounded in my opinion
You’re 💯 right
Seems like Tom actually cares to be in the band this time
nah 2001 tom prob the beat. He sounds good here tho but ill always enjoy the ratty voice from blink
@@nateeberly9636 def this or 2001, I feel like he can hit notes better now tho.
@@snaredrummer0123money.
I never thought I’d here this version with Tom and hot damn…crushed it
It's crazy hearing this considering I used to sing all of Skiba's songs in Tom's voice as a joke and this is exactly the way I imagined they would be like. We truly live in a simulation.
Toms sounds freakin awesome with 9 and cali songs
Mark's little jumpy jumps at 0:52 as he looks back at Tom to sing the chorus. :') He is so happy to see Tom singing his song!
You can tell Tom really spent hours in the woodshed to refresh these songs. Not as sloppy as he traditionally is.
Woodshed?
@@grisehue it means practicing
Yes but ngl bored to death is the first song I learn how to play on the guitar for a reason it’s bar chords and downstrokes
Lol, they’re pantomiming to a recording
@@BarronVonSchnootIt’s not, Tom’s rushing a little bit at 1:31
That 1:48 “UAGHHM NOT COMIN!” Is exactly how I imagined he would sing that part
I think it would be a nice gesture to make Matt a suprise guest at some of the Shows...
Especially since it was in Chicago.
It wont happend, matt said in an interview they werent really friendly anymore
@@ToPoSiKoSiS thats sad...
@@ToPoSiKoSiS That isn't true at all
Thats not entirely fake... las year Matt was asked if he was still in the band and he said he didnt know because he hadnt talk to mark or travis in a while...
Matt and Tom trying to sound like each other is another level of respect ❤
Facts😢😭😭
Oh my gosh that’s me right in front of Mark with the blink-182 shirt written in red and blue jumping almost the whole song lol best night ever!!! ❤
Are you the bearded guy😂
@@blinktorealize yes!!!! That’s me! 🤘🤘🤘
When Bored to Death came out I told myself it’s better if Tom sang it but now I got so used to Matt’s voice that I’m in a weird place.
Tom’s is undoubtably better imo
It’s skiba’s song, Tom’s band. Both are great
Tom would have never written a song this mediocre.
Tom definitely sings it better live
@@JasonPyne You're dead wrong if you think this song is mediocre.
Bored to death sounds good in live
This is one of the best Blink songs ever. Feels like Tom couldve written it. Wild.
This is the best I've heard Mark sound in a long time. He absolutely nailed it.
Thanks for these songs! Tom is great as Matt and Matt was really doing his best. I loved it, met the trio incl. Matt a couple of years ago. I really think he did good. Love Blink since 1998.
Tom is light years ahead of Matt let's be honest
@@methrecovery6922 I meant the way he sings these songs when I said "Tom is great as Matt". I prefer Tom over Matt. Nevertheless I like both albums with Matt as well. But then again I like all Blink albums.
Tom is the best!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
"fadingggg fasttttttt" tom ur voice
I love this band so much!
We want hear Tom singing Darkside and Blame It On My Youth from NINE too!
Remember to Forget Me and San Diego
Every song
I wouldn’t mind hearing no future
@@emaheiwa8174i need san diego
Pin the Grenade as well!
Now we just need Frusciante to play Aeroplane and it would rip a hole in the space-time continuum.
This wins .
That “nearly” and “fading fast” are so rad Tom!
Красавчики, сколько всего произошло в мире, а Blink-182 все те же и всё лучше! Том, ещё блин, вернулся, наконец-то, это радует - настроение хорошее 🤟🏼 :):)
tom is so pumped for the "whoas"
ABSOLUTE LEGENDS!!!!
Blink 4 life❤
Красавчики !
I'm now hoping for "No Heart to Speak Of" with Tom.
Part of what made blink so great was the connection with mark and tom, and we know that their friendship wasn’t was very strong after the first hiatus, or even after box car racer in 2002. But now, they are back for good and their friendship is going strong!
When they played this in Denver last year I totally cried lmao
Always wanted to hear Tom sing this song ❤
I’m so glad Tom is back 😭😭😭
Like when tom sing fasssttt so long..
Very happy they played songs off of “California” but would’ve been nice to hear some tracks off of “Nine” too
nah
@@exitostropicales101 Wrong
Yesss. Maybe one day they'll play something from Nine 🤟
There’s still time yet.
Ransom, Emo Shit or Pinned the Grenade would be sick live.
I like that Tom respects Matt and still sings the song from Matt's era
From what I read (which was other fans speculating on social media lol) they were only going to play songs they made together and skip the Skiba songs. Which saddened me because they made great music together. It's really good to see Tom playing some of those songs. I hope they are able to keep the peace and harmony they’ve been having as a band and as friends lately.
they really need to record this with tom version
The last time I was in Coachella it was 115° and that was setting up a fireworks show with Zambelli fireworks, but I wish I could have made it to see blink!!!
travis did amazing with this band the most!
It’s crazy to hear Tom singing a song from the Skiba era
Chad smith killin it on guitar
Dude that's not Chad Smith. It's will ferrel
😆
Best summer ever 1998 blink on the cd player ,great times. Wish life was like those times again. So confusion out there now.
Ahhh those were the days. I was 16 in 98, just got my license….life was good
This is the way it meant to sound 😢
Tom sounds pretty awesome here
Way to honor Matt...he earned it...he really did
Travis's a monster at the drum 🤯
That was fucking awesome!
Hell yeahhh
unbelievable
the Tom´s voice in that Fu.....ing song just blow my mind!!!
Alkaline trio’s latest album is so good. Give it a chance.
It's pretty ok. Diffinately not bad
They lowered the key and it sounds better, and suits better Mark's voice.
This is actually good, kudos to Tom!
I think people didnt like California (deluxe songs included) and NINE bc there was no tom and the guitars felt off, im glad ppl like when tom sings the matt songs considering i genuinely like some of the skiba songs especially darkside
Woww wooww woooowwwww 🎉
I love the echo that shouldve been in the album
As much as I actually liked the Skiba era being a Alk30 fan, I really like hearing Tom sing these songs as they were likely intended
Eu sempre quis que esta versão existisse!!!
nice cover!
goated
❤
1:29 - Yead
❤❤❤❤❤
Respect to Tom for doing such a good job with a song that’s not his. John Frusciante could learn a thing or two from him.
Fading FAAAAASTT
They should re-record this song with Tom, it actually fits him well.
I thought that too. I think they wouldn’t disrespect Skiba like that though, since they’re friends. Even though thatd be awesome, I feel like that might also be a slap in the face lol
@thesithchef8760 Yeah that's true.
Shout out to that one guy in the crowd going nuts
1:15 dave grohl
Where?
@@aletocardenas209 left under guys with hat the blue one shirt....hehehe
Yeahhh
This is the only one Skiba's song? Did they play She's Out Of Her Mind or something else?
Hope they do more matt songs with Tom darkside be cool
It's everything I've ever wanted but I miss skiba 🥺
Tom sounds good fucking good.
Tom did a good thing here.
Tom even singing Bored to Death is better than Skiba
Do they have some backing guitar or is it tracked?
Backing tracks
I can only hear the synth/keyboard sounds on the backing track. Looked like he's playing the guitar parts himself to me but I could be wrong.
Mantaaaappppp.... orang yang seharusnya
its so weird seeing Tom sing Matts song. Its the same weird as when Matt sang Toms song, but its just so weird to me.
This just makes me want them to remake California, and NINE with Tom. I think Matt Skiba did well with blink, but would still be nice to have both versions
Gilak kali Tom, malah jadi keren dia yang nyanyi wkwkwkw
Masa?
setuju si bang
aseli...
Nice tom😢
Really humble of Tom to let them do it. I’m happy they’re doing these songs.
I really love Matt Skiba voice man but I'm so glad Tom is back in blink again and Matt can go wite songs with A3O AND Lektron 😎
There's an echo pulling out the meaning
Rescuing a nightmare from a dream
The voices in my head are always screaming
That none of this means anything to me
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I'm, I'm not coming home
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth, I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
There's a stranger staring at the ceiling
Rescuing a tiger from a tree
The pictures in her head are always dreaming
Each of them means everything to me
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I'm, I'm not coming home
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth, I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I think I met her at the minute that the rhythm was set down
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) I said I'm sorry I'm a little bit of a letdown
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) but all my friends are daring me to come over
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) so I come over and over and over
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) so let me buy you a drink and we'll pretend that you think
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) that I'm the man of your dreams come to life in a dive bar
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) and we'll go over and over and over
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) and we'll go over and over and over
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) and we'll go over and over and over
(Oh, oh, oh, oh) and we'll go over and over and over
Save your breath, I'm nearly
Bored to death and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Back on earth, I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
It surprises me they play Skiba songs.
i really2 wish tom would play Heaven and No Heart to speak of too now.
Sounds wayyyy better with Tom. No debate
damn, i dreamt this shit
I found myself in the crowd
Best song from the Skiba era
Its like they wrote the song for Tom to sing it hah
My thought exactly when I saw they were playing this
Live is too short to last long sort of feels poignant regarding Mark being unwell and the whole reunion
