Tedshotdogs Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 remember how mark said 1/3 would hate the album, 1/3 would love it and 1/3 would hate it at first and then love it. Yeah well this song is only one out of 11 so calm down people, obviously there was going to be ava influence. This was a song written by tom so shocker.

showmethebathroommirror Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Really disappointed on first listen tbh... I like the chorus, but not the verses really with those fucking daft effects, and that pre-chorus thing with Tom is fucking awful, brings the whole song down imo and screams 'I was left off an AVA album!' The interludes just don't fit at all, not blink at all. To be honest, I know people hate it when people say stuff like this, but it was everything I was worried about, just has AVA shit all over it. Just sounds like that fucking awful band. I know it's a bit of a daft thing to say but if that's anywhere near the best song on the album it will be a massive disappointment.

High Value Man Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 It feels like Tom wrote an AVA song and Mark and Travis tried to change it a bit but pretty much failed. The core song is an AVA song. Their isn't really any chorus, just a call and response verse that sounds like AVA with Mark, an AVA pre chorus with Tom, following by them saying "keeps me up all niight" and some power chords. Im very disappointed. But I am hoping other songs on the album will be better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissingNo. Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I wish that riff was used more often. Probably one of the harder riffs they've written too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler☮ Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 everyone will have their own opinion. there's no point in arguing about it, you can't change someones opinion. i fucking loved it. the chorus is awesome, the harmonies are sex. god damn, blink is really back.

Patient #48273 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 So much for liking the whole song more than the clip. I'm really not looking forward to the album that much anymore if this is what they've chosen as the first single. Maybe Mark's songs will be good or maybe this song was just a bad choice. I don't know. But I definitely don't have high hopes for this album now. Maybe it'll grow on me. PS: I'm really bummed about not liking it. I want to, I just don't.

SHARKS Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I've had better. Don't really care for it. Chorus is nice, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostdope182 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 i agree with everyone saying it is an ava song ft barker and hoppus, at least its a lil harder though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Hmm.... it was okay, but it wasn't great. It felt like it was all over the place, and that wasn't a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MassKirbycide Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I got chills the moment I heart "It keeps me up all night". Yes, it draws obvious AVA influences, but there are obvious BCR influences too, and I already see this song having more staying power than any of the shit AVA put out recently.

MSandt Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Just transferred the song to my mp3 player, gonna turn this computer off and fall to sleep listening to the song (it's 3.30am already) for the first time. This site is slow as hell atm anywya. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drain222000 Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I fucking loved it!! I love the guitar in it, the chorus is stuck in my head. Was there some AVA in it? Yep, but anybody who thought there wasnt going to be were nuts. If this makes me a fanboy then oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewmont Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 http://soundcloud.com/kroq/blink-182-up-all-night-kroq/s-au4sI Here's a better quality link... I dunno, the chorus grows on me more and more, and if you listen to this link on headphones, when the second chorus comes in, the main guitar riff they do is pretty blink to me. It has that major-key happiness to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 Nice. A little bummed about the pre-chorus as well, and at times I feel like they try to make a simple song a bit too complex. But what a groove the song kicks off into, wow! And a decent chorus. All in all, worth the wait. Also, the hype on twitter is imense.

Awardude Posted July 15, 2011 Report Share Posted July 15, 2011 I Dug it. It feels somewhat AVA/BCR/Sum41ish, but obviously they made it their own. 1080p YouTube rip anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
