I Really Wish I Hated You

[Jamie]

I'm just hoping we get 1 good song from the album. Let's be honest here, we've had 2 terrible songs, 2 average songs and 1 song that's really short, so we can't really class it as a song. 

About 95% of the album has been written by other people (that includes Feldmann) with the help of Blink-182. Pretty shocking that they literally can't write an album by themselves anymore. 

[Ixidor]

Maybe they can write a decent album on their own means the three of them. But wanting to stay relevant means reaching for outside help and ultimately it all feels less genuine.

The first song that i don't like

I hate all the parts Doesnt sound like blink at all, very stale and static

 

 

[zzzz]

I do really like the 2nd verse where Mark comes in with “The sun is out, I’m dying in the daytime.” and Trav’s doing some funky work in the background... 

Growing on me...!

I didn’t realize this was still going up on the charts. Checked out of curiosity and it’s up to #14 on the alt-chart. 

[M!ke]

I love this song.  I wasn't fully on-board at first, but the more I listen to it, the more I love it.  I think it's place in the album helps all the more, it's weird, but where a song falls on an album definitely can make it all the better if that makes any sense.

i did actually hear this song on my local alt station, caught me by big surprise

[Scott.]

I still really like this. It’s so catchy.

this was the turning point for me also, I hate the singles till this one and my mindset totally changed going into the whole album 

[Drama-Free Jan]

This song has potential, it doesn't feel genuine with the lyrics per usual and the chorus gets a little too poppy, per usual, but it's much better than most they've put out in the past few years

[lost in reverie]

The chorus is great!

[zzzz]

I really like it now, despite absolutely pooping on it initially. This, First Time, NHTSO are my go-to tracks on this album still, with Heaven sprinkled in.

[Ghent]

Just noticed that this song is at #11 on the alt chart still, that is crazy!

Whoa that's impressive! Is it still rising or what did it hit at its peak? Also has anybody heard it on the radio at all? 

[boxelder]

i heard it on the radio like a super long time ago, like october, but only once.

[Sun God]

Good thing I don’t listen to the wack ass radio or I’d have to be forced into trying to stomach this turd of a song

I think 11 is the highest it’s been? Not positive on that. I haven’t heard it anywhere, but haven’t listen to much alt radio lately either so hard to say

[Champ182]

Yeah I don't either, I'm curious if it's breaking through in a real way. That would be pretty wild after all this time haha

[Elisa]

It's been on the charts for 18 weeks

[stgrunu]

I liked this song, but wouldn't songs like this work better in Simple Creatures? Isn't that like the reason Simple Creatures exists lmao

Welcome to the forums! I pooped on this song at first but gotta say I love it now. (Still don’t think it translates too well live though.) Given the “anything goes” direction of NINE it’s fine there IMO.

Skiba’s acoustic part really sells this song for me. It's the part I look forward to hearing when it comes on. I would love more of Skiba’s sing-song voice.
