Meltdown Tracker Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Love is dangerous is a far more loaded and meaningful lyric than This is California, so I'd say that's a pretty shitty comparison. Can you provide some examples of the meaningful lyrics? I'm curious what you see in the song. And that chorus is such a steaming pile of shit I want to hammer nails in my ears when I hear it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic vinegar Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 That was not as much fun as Tom's instagram rants but still interesting. I think he's still butt-hurt over blink by saying Mark and Travis never replied to Golden Showers email. Does that mean that was the only blink related song on Demos?

Zoltan Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 that was the only song he wrote for blink. others were obviously written after he quit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Why is Tom even planning on doing a "real" solo album? Isn't Angels & Airwaves already that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that chorus is such a steaming pile of shit I want to hammer nails in my ears when I hear it. The lyric you posted, "Love is dangerous" has many implications by nature, do you really need me to spell them out? The lyric "This is California," has literally one meaning, and it also sounds retarded as hell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like AVA is his baby or anything!!... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 at least golden showers has funny lyrics and is somewhat catchy. LID is just boring and lame 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Migh as well be "relationships are hard" or something equally plain and boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Value Man Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 The lyrics of Love is Dangerous are ridiculously stupid. But its a solid melody, good hooks, Mark's vocals in the background add a nice touch, and Travis kills it on the drums. There is more to a song than lyrics. They aren't the most important thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 Discussing the quality of blink's lyrics here? Amazing. If someone from 2015 had travelled back to 1999 to prevent me for this, I would be laughing really hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melty Mark Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 The drums in Love is Dangerous are cool, Travis always does a good job, but like holy shit do I fucking hate the chorus. I don't even really like the verse melody either, but the harmony between Tom and Mark resembles a good effort. Fuck that song and fuck Tom's stupid like, faux-surfer-dude accent or something, I don't even know what that intonation is from the punk/pop rockers, Billy Joe Armstrong does the same thing. It's profoundly noticeable in this song more than most others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melty Mark Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 It almost sounds like an American faking an Australian accent? I can't fucking explain it. Listening to this song again to remind me how shitty it is. Fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chalk Outlines Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Tom, I'm having trouble writing songs and finding a melody. Do you have any pointers? Like · Reply · 10 July at 17:16 Tom DeLonge Mumble in exact rhythms over the music Lol Khairul Annuar Mat Jani We know your LIVE voice / guitar playing is not as tight anymore and we understand why you dont want to perform live anymore. You'hv been playing live since 20 years ago, and you just wanted to do a fresh things, we get that. The Beatles also stop touring after revolver, but still a legend you know. However, are you considering playing live again if the schedule is not really tight...like 2 shows a month. Its a win win situation for your life and us.

hammerpipe Posted July 12, 2015 Report Share Posted July 12, 2015 Lol this just appeared on my YouTube recommended videos. So stupid. Lmao the dumpweed video of Matt was taken on an iPhone and the one of Tom is pro shot. Wtf lol how can you even compare the guitar playing??? You can hardly hear matts guitar but you can certainly hear all 50 shades of toms gay ass guitar tone. I stopped watching before the video was done comparing both versions of dumpweed. Stupid comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think LID and FTG are the two worst blink efforts of all time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
