Heyo! I'm working on a studio recreation of the Untitled Tour and added the BBC Radio 1 version of Always as a bonus track of sorts...figured I'd post it here. Hopefully you get some enjoyment out of it!

Love what you did with the a Letter to Elise song. Robert Smith's voice really suits that blink style which I never expected haha

If blink ever records musically something like this again then i can wait whatever it takes.

this is an extremely old thread, but i was bored and watching the 2004 unreleased documentary that estevan oriol shot, and there's some great footage of blink recording this infamous BBC session (around the 27 min mark). it does appear that they were going for some sort of weird, stripped-down approach -- it's just a hi-hat, snare, and crash travis plays. tom makes a jokey remark about not having enough time for vocal warmups too. just a weird, off performance that kind of tonally fits the below doc and that bleary winter tour pre-breakup.

I always wondered if they had even practiced for that type of setup. I love how the 3 of them can always just piece something together and have it sound rad. Huge fan of Travis’s drumming throughout.

lol its funny when mark says to travis i'm gonna go deliver pizza today, after travis explains that to stay grounded he goes and work a pizza place for a few days and delivers pizza

and tom says after mark saying that "if u deliver pizza im gonna order one" ahha
