Didnt have enough votes during the neighbourhoods round. For good reason too, its a great song.

tbh it's at least a little different for them but this song is just kind of meh. the video with it is nice but I can't say I'm overly bothered by the song.

I think he only has a team of two or three people and one is his sister so yeah, probably.

I love that song so much!

Its a combination of terrible, cringe inducing lyrics and the super bro current pop punk rip off. it sounds nothing like a blink song should, and sounds exactly like 40 year olds trying to appeal to teens in a major cash grab. As Laura ^ said, it condensed all the bad parts of the California era into one horrific song. I totally forgot to call a 'oh it's this one' song for this competition because there was a clear 'Winner' if you will. I don't think Parking Lot is the worst blink song of all time personally, but it definitely deserves the hate.

Can't believe I forgot Stop The Cavalry

I imagine if you couldn't find it and push came to shove, someone could find the specific font piece and the smiley for you to take to an embroidery place where they could hopefully digitise it and put it on any standard baseball cap. If not there are various blink collectors out there and there's different stuff thrown on ebay every day, I'm sure you'll find someone willing to sell.

One of the companies we were discussing creating a new website for our business with wanted to charge us £20K Safe to say we didn't go with them lol

Isn't that just a collaborative version of the Strange Times website he had a while back?

Yeah exactly, it seems potentially plausible

I don't even necessarily think it's an alien thing he stumbled upon. He could have stumbled upon some technological secret they were developing and assumed it was aliens related because... well because it's Tom. thats what I mean by 'close to the truth' he could have stumbled on something, misunderstood it but mentioned it but because he has some concept of it they decided to make him seem nuts instead, which tbh isn't hard for him to do as he clearly already is a bit. if it distracts from what their doing and stops him accidentally revealing something to 'enemy' countries then I can totally see them doing it.

Well that's the thing - the reason I don't think this theory is too far fetched is because I don't think they've chosen Tom to spread disinformation, I think their intentionally using Tom because he accidentally got close to something and they wanted to avoid him letting something out. Say he did meet with Podesta, and he mentioned something dumb he'd picked up on his conspiracy channels that was actually very close to something true. Maybe Podesta, or someone else Tom had contact with, passed along the potential threat to Tom spreading that kind of information. If they saw him and his potential audience (he does clearly have one, not a large one but it's large enough to be potentially damaging) as a threat, then maybe they would give him a couple of meetings with semi important people, get them to rile him up, and then let him loose to say absolute rubbish. I'm not saying it's the truth, and it's definitely a bit of a spectacle just to shut him up, but I think it would make some sense - and to be honest it's a nicer alternative than Tom is just a scam artist.

^ that ones good too. legit love it, blast it every year.

1. Fairytale Of New York 2. A Spaceman Came Travelling 3. Merry Christmas Everyone (the song doesn't actually start until ages in, be warned) 4. Merry Christmas Everybody 5. I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day If you disagree, fight me. Driving Home For Christmas is a close 6th.

That was interesting. It's intentionally manipulative in it's editing but if you look past that the general concept is not that far fetched and not even far from what people have said here in the past - that he's essentially a patsy. It would make a lot of sense if it was just an effort to stop him using his platform to uncover actual truths, but instead to perpetuate ridiculous ideas that are never proven and thus end up making him look (and actually potentially become) crazy. If that is what's actually happening here, then I would start to feel legitimately sorry for Tom.

I just adore the 'plus really crappy alien decorations' bit haha

Friend of mine went to some gig, England somewhere, and saw this poster and took a snap. I love it -

Yeeeah I mean, I'd only want Tom back if Matt went back to alk3 and Tom suddenly remembered how to sing live normally but that'll never happen.

Some people would rather be lead down the garden path by a mad man than face reality.

Is he drawing another crappy self doodle and shoving it on a T shirt for this one too?

I find the untitled performances really odd at times. I love the energy and everything, and the songs obviously, but you can tell those songs weren't written in a band performance format because they don't really work rushed and paired down. might just be me though.

the answer is neither.

Is A Real Boy is fucking iconic and should be on there.

Feeling This is a whacko who's obsessed with blinks kids and gets far too creepily interested in their lives, I'd ignore him. the mans a nutcase. We know bugger all about Jen and pretending otherwise is just pure fantasy.
