I’m sick of people who bash Matt for “not being as good as Tom”. He may not have the Tom Delonge personality but I would argue he is a much better all around musician. This song along with everything on “California” was amazing and Matt helped keep blink alive while Tom was absent.
That's most or all of Cali for me, but I still appreciate Skiba and his contribution along with a bit more of him on Nine, but Cali Deluxe sounds like you said written with Tom in mind. I just wish we could hear more songs live like Rabbit Hole, Shes Out Of Her Mind, Misery, etc
The California/Nine era is almost 10 years of the band’s history. I’m glad that they don’t close their eyes on it The Red Hot Chili Peppers should do the same
We dont need Tom back, we dont need for him to believe he's slumming it musically because stupid punk rock is so rudimentary and confining due to its simplicity and it doesnt allow him to fully explore his massive talent and creativity...... but he'll do us the favor of going through the motions!!! Even though he doesnt like punk rock anymore, he'll allow us to watch him with Blink again..... for a couple months at least, until he quits to go save the world through his lame, self important, pretentious, other band again. No matter what anybody says, at least Skiba likes punk...
not gonna lie, it is me or is tom enjoying this come back more than everything else or ever before ? i mean his voice matches good right now, for a long time after the brake up 2005
I think his alcohol problems had to do a lot with his ex wife - probably a not very healthy relationship. i think he tried staying together for the kids but yeah now he looks and feels like he is having the time of his life since 2005 or stg.
Literally the only thing I would add is Carousel. So there’s something from Cheshire Cat on the setlist. It’s so cool that they’re playing songs from Neighbourhoods and Matt’s era
I know Tom has to sing songs that were written by Mark and Matt at some point, especially after two albums with him, but I think he performed this song brilliantly!
I bet one of the main reasons why Tom this time is much more involved is his new WIFE. New woman, new life, new attitude, new man. Well it’s better saying he became what he always was. Love you blink-182 from the bottom of my heart. ❤
He also sold all his rights to alllllll his blink 182 discograophy and Angels doesn't bring in the same money that risiduals from enema of the state was yearly.
I love Tom as much as every other Blink fan, but yea there’s no point. The song and that whole album is fine the way it is. Love or hate the Matt Skiba era, that album sounded good with him on it.
I’ll take a new live album including this song. I wouldn’t want them to just re-record Matt’s songs but it would be cool to have a live release with Tom singing
@@PhoenixDawn93 Of course not the whole album. That would be disrespectful. Tons of artists release special re releases of their songs to mark certain occasions or collaborations.
@@waaaah5305 what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
&& don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Skiba a bunch, this isn't to take away from what he gave to us either! He will always be a part of the family; but nothing can replace the magic of Mark, Tom & Travis doing their thing together♥
I understand why they give Tom a hard time but I've never heard Mark sing this song in key either, in fact when Skiba first played it was pretty bad. But that's because it Feldman's overproduction.
The albums with Skiba were pretty great, im sure if Tom decides to sing more it would be AMAZING but i feel like there must be a reason he doesnt wanna do more. thats quite alright though.
Very much disagree about their voices being similar… toms voice compliments mark’s because it’s different, a lot of the time you cant tell mark and matt apart

@@kiwiangeldust6912 Matt's good in his own band not in Blink.. Its like when Jim left pennywise.. Yeh sure it kinda sounds like pennywise but not really..
@@kiwiangeldust6912 I never said he didn't deserve respect, I was just commenting on how natural this song sounds with Tom singing, especially with Tom having such a unique voice
hah yeah it's not like John Frusciante in RHCP. Performing only songs was made with him. I am missing I am with you, getaway era they made with talented Josh Klinghoffer. The last albums they dropped is actually not the best...
Yeah instead of using fucking backing tracks. The autotune is fine bit if they really need more hands well matt can do both guitar and vocals like its such an obvious and easy improvement
I saw Blink in Detroit and thought it was an incredible show, but You can really hear some sort of auto tune on Toms verse in this video. The last note of his verse you can hear the auto tune pulls him down a half step
Watching in this, I'm thinking what a bear this song is for Tom/Matt. Once the first chorus hits, he doesn't get a break--it's just all mid-upper register for 2 and 1/2 minutes non-stop.
@@Gnashadelphia imagine being so short sided and not realizing that Matt contributed a lot of fun music Mark or Tom haven’t been able to do after self titled. Edging is lame AF and I can’t believe people like it. Seriously. It’s almost a mockery of fans. Tom: Watch this, they’ll eat up whatever I put out. Mark:cool as long as we get to play together.

He'd be just a second rhythm guitarist for the majority of the set Blink works as a 3 piece Plus Matt is part of a legendary band of his own Maybe a tour between both bands

@@punkkid03 Well thats right too, i don't say that he is bad guitarist or anything. But, atleast for me, Blink182 just three guys, you can't change them or it won't be Blink182. But i feel happy that skiba helped keep Blink alive. Always recpect him for that. :)
He should sing every song like he sings this. No wild inflections and shit. He sounds pretty good here, but he seems lazy or disiniterested when he sings songs he was a part of.
Fuck do I wish Skiba stayed and Tom stayed.... AWAY!!! I hope they can still get Matt in a few months when Tom leaves again.... then dont let him back next time somebody in the band almost dies
@@vmedino1026 at least for the live shows shit would be cool to have a 4 member band live so that they dont have to use backing track. Plus more songs from nine and california, which have some great ones.

This song was made while Tom was still in the band before his last quitting
The way Tom hits that "Fading fast"
... *muah* perfection
Totally agree!!
Mr. Skiba: We thank you for being our step-dad. You rocked, and we'll never forget what you did for us. But daddy's back, and we've missed him.
Skiba left some gems for Tom.
100%

Thanks matt skibba for this song

Thanks matt!!

Matt made some great songs for blink.
Toms "faaaaast" sounds incredible
I can’t get over it. They need to record it with Tom JUST for his choruses
Matt Skiba is probably smiling right now!! IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! TOM ABSOLUTELY KILLS THIS PERFORMANCE!!
I think it’s so cool that they are still playing Matt songs I honestly think California is one of their best albums
Agreed!!
the deluxe has some of the best songs, misery and wildfire kick ass
@@Victthequick and 6/8 too
They aren’t Matt songs. They are blink songs
@@deathbystereo- Matt era
Honestly never thought for a second I’d ever get to hear Tom sing this song. Love that he’s doin the Skiba tunes.
Same here, I've always wanted to hear what California and Nine would sound like with Tom singing Matt's parts.
it feels to me that this songs were written hoping Tom would come back to the band one day, and performe it.
that day has arrived.
That's most or all of Cali for me, but I still appreciate Skiba and his contribution along with a bit more of him on Nine, but Cali Deluxe sounds like you said written with Tom in mind.
I just wish we could hear more songs live like Rabbit Hole, Shes Out Of Her Mind, Misery, etc
Tom crushed it!
I totally agree!!
and faading faaaaaaaassssttt.. that was soooo beautiful !!! BLINK-182 my favorite band in the 1st place!
I really love Tom's guitar improvisation and vocal
Tom gives a nice spin on Skibas parts, exactly as i imagined itd be
There's something so different about this reunion in both Tom and Mark. For the better it's full on the best parts of blink
It like listening to the mark Tom and Travis show all over again.
The California/Nine era is almost 10 years of the band’s history. I’m glad that they don’t close their eyes on it
The Red Hot Chili Peppers should do the same
Was thinking the same
Nine was complete garbage
No it was not... it was 7 years total... Don't spread false information... come on man 🤦♂🤦♂
