blink-182 Song Election - BEST SONG

[Bucko]

The only thing that matters. 

[Toxic Toast]

The Only Thing That Matters is voting that song out

[Elisa]

I'm a broken record: the only thing that matters 

[_Bagel]

The Only Thing That Matters - be gone 

[Nosferatu]

The Only Thing That Matters is one of the few California songs that actually has a classic blink vibe to it and is done well. It'd easily fit on TOYPAJ. Wasting Time is one of the songs I've never understood the hype for from these boards, so I'ma vote that.

[twentytwenty]

21 Days

[zzzz]

21D

[Champ182]

TOTTM is a valiant effort for this era, but still gets my vote.

[Jan Mortensen]

I think I saw someone do a 21 days cover and it was like nails on a chalkboard so I don't love that song. TOTTM is the best Cali song but is on Cali. Carousel is an overrated one to me and Heaven just needs to go..

 

Heaven

To me it just sounded false, like they were purposefully trying to replicate the sound of Take Off Your Pants or that blink feel , which they had already evolved from - Like it didn't feel organic or real to me

I don’t revisit Buddha as much as the other albums so it’s lower on the list for me. 

There should be a double crab function.

Tottm being voted out is fine by me.

But it all happened so organically in the studio

True ! At least they were in the same room - California is pretty much Star Wars - The Force Awakens. Trying to forcibly recapture what made them blink/star wars in the first place. Works at times  , fails and looks transparent in others by going over trodden out tropes etc. In each case, got my nostalgia giddy for a bit, but would rather they push for something new

Don't worry, we already had that debate ad-nauseam.  The problem is the same people that loved California also loved Force Awakens aka they belong here

I'd rather have a good album recorded separately than a bad one in the same room.

Did you? There was me thinking I was all original and shit, making some intriguing insight at a dinner party -  I probably stole the point from someone else anyway haha.

Yeah, nostalgia is a powerful drug. baaaaaa

Yeah they both give you a nice high to see shiny lightsabers and some resemblance of pop punk with Mark & Travis again but both have no originality resulting in a shelf life of like 2 months.  I think the effort was there in California they just didn't have it
