I listened to the song 5 times in a row this morning. The bridge and the end just gives me chills everytime. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I think the song is great overall but for me the bridge is the worst part of the song by a mile. Not knocking it or being a miserable fuck before Ghent jumps in, just think that Blink have always excelled at interludes and this one falls a bit flat compared to the rest of the song.

boxelder Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 idk I think the bridge is fantastic. aside from the fact it's just rad to hear a vocal bridge again, marks lyrics are wonderful. it does get a little busy with the main instrumentation, oh-ohs, tambourine, marks double-tracked vocals, and synth/strings.

sammyj Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 The bridge is what keeps me returning to the song. Love the lyrics and the buildup. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kay Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I really don't like the lyrics on this song at all, am I alone with that? I expect a certain level from Mark and this doesn't hit it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pussay Patrol Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Got no idea what he's singing about half the time. Don't give a fuck about lyrics though and they aren't totally cringeworthy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 I don't give a shit about lyrics tbh. This is blink. All their lyrics apart from untitled are cringey as fuck so why should we expect anything different. His lyrics are a lot better than toms pretentious shit. The chorus is pop punk gold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a fun pop punk song, the lyrics are always going to be awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aria Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 As a writer and lyricist, I find nothing wrong with the lyrics in Bored To Death. There's a lot of fantastic stand out parts "The voices in my head are always screaming that none of this means anything to me" "The pictures in her head are always dreaming... Each of them means everything to me" " i said 'i'm sorry; i'm afraid of a let down" but all my friends are daring me to come over, so i come over and over and over so let me buy you a drink and we'll pretend that you think that i'm in the man of your dreams come to life in a dive bar and we'll go over and over and over" love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManchesterAdam Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Am I the only one not finding the song as upbeat as some people think? It definitely could suit a bright, fun video but at the same time I could totally imagine blink stood outside in the rain, at night singing the chorus. Or maybe I'm just focusing on the lyrics too much? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterAdam Posted May 1, 2016 Report Share Posted May 1, 2016 Also Kerrang TV currently showing "Blink 182 are back!" with every Blink video. Makes me so happy to see stuff like that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe I'm just focusing on the lyrics too much? Are music videos really that popular these days though? I wouldn't even know where to go to watch a music video of a new song haha. I don't think the lyrics are terrible but I wish they didn't release the song with the lyric video. I spent the first few times listening to the song focusing on the lyrics which I don't find awesome but also not terrible. What would have been awesome is if they used the album artwork and turned it into a animated music video. Probably a lot more work involved to do that though.

I think the bridge is pretty upbeat, and the chorus and outro are about as upbeat as the later songs on TOYPAJ e.g, Rollercoaster, Everytime I Look For You (which is exactly what I wanted from this new music) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
