I can kinda see why not many people like it but I thought it was a good example of blink doing the pop sound right. I thought the verses were pretty cool and I liked the little touches with the keyboard. I thought the Nana’s worked the best in that song than the rest of California. BIOMY is a mess however.

Ghent Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 In a couple years California will become cool. Just like Neighborhoods did over time. Hard to take it seriously. Fanboys don’t like change, but they always accept it and embrace it over time. I still remember when this board melted down over untitled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b00bies Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 doesn't sound like blink at all. sounds like a soundtrack to a Disney movie. I can't even judge the fucking song, for a cheap pop song, it's an ok song, maybe better than some of Cali. Still no hook, no melodie, nothing interesting, the same one guitar riff pattern at places, you can barely hear a guitar. Basically, i'm ready for an ablum full of soundtrack songs to Cartoons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously no way to prove this, but I highly highly doubt anyone melting down today would like Feeling This if it came out today in an odd alternate universe. Interesting to think about though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Low Value Boy Posted May 8, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Ghent, look fair fucks to you, you like this era of blink (although I do think you might exaggerate it to get a reaction sometimes) But comparing this to their peak Untitled days is just ridiculous, your opinions are losing a shitload of credibility at the moment so pack it in and we can try to forget that this ever happened. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Kay Posted May 8, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 outside of my laughing gif (which I stand by) - No one should be surprised by this. California was sonically like blink forgot how they were supposed to sound and took inspiration from the bands they influenced in their past - it sounded like a talented painter getting knocked on the head and being reduced to finger painting. Just a watered down, wanky version of what it should be. We knew they were on a bit of a high from how California performed, and we saw droves of different writers, producers, Feldmann still involved, and Mark suddenly releasing synth-laced 80s stuff. There was always going to be a more pop focused edge to this record - and this single confirms that. this is paint by numbers "please do well on the charts!" track for the modern age, where most songs sounds fucking identical and autotuned to shit. Now it's definitely 'experimental' for blink, because blink don't usually release straight up pop music. so you know, Mark was right on the money there. For direct commentary - Idk why people like the lyrics. they're not as unbelievably 'cringe' as some of California but it's fucking weird to have lyrics about being a misunderstood messy punk kid when there's not a single goddamn thing that fits punk musically in the song at all. it's also hilarious hearing these lyrics from Mark, who's darkest part of his childhood is his parents divorcing.... just like half of the worlds parents. Boohoo, big boy. Musically it's just bad. not really sure how to defend it. I can't talk about it instrumentally because it's a garbled together mess. I think if you actually reduced it to it's bare parts it would've been a typical so-so California song, but they've just scrubbed it with bullshit polish and left it at that. I'm not angry. I'm not disappointed. blink died ages ago, this is just fucking funny now. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was just decent then with some faults. I think the same today. But its a masterpiece compared to this fucking garbage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friends who didnt like them and called them high school pop started to dig them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
